    Abstract:
    Lichen planus pemphigoides is a clinico-histological subtype of lichen planus in which there are bullous lesions similar to those of bullous pemphigoid. Lichen planus is included among the rare causes of erythroderma. We present a case of erythrodermic lichen planus pemphigoides in a 49-year-old female patient who satisfactorily responded to treatment with cyclosporine. A detailed physical examination and immunofluorescence study are key to the diagnosis of lichen planus pemphigoides.
