  • Title: Paraneoplastic pemphigus occurring in a patient with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
    Author: Schlesinger T, McCarron K, Camisa C, Anhalt G.
    Journal: Cutis; 1998 Feb; 61(2):94-6. PubMed ID: 9515216.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a 71-year-old white male with paraneoplastic pemphigus associated with a B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Diagnosis of paraneoplastic pemphigus was made by the characteristic findings on immunoprecipitation performed on a serum specimen. Paraneoplastic pemphigus is a severe autoimmune disease comprised of polymorphous mucocutaneous lesions, characteristic laboratory findings, association with one of several types of neoplasms, and a very poor prognosis.
