Mucous membrane pemphigoid-associated paronychia with onychomadesis

摘要

Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP) is an autoimmune blistering disease that is notoriously difficult to treat. Nail involvement in MMP is rare. We report on a 58?years old man with severe MMP who presented with onychomadesis. To our knowledge, mucous membrane pemphigoid associated paronychia and onychomadesis have not been reported before. We believe it is important for dermatologists to be aware of this entity.
