Sažetak
Mucous membrane pemphigoid (MMP), previously
called cicatricial pemphigoid, is a rare subepidermal
immunobullous disorder that primarily affects
the mucous membranes (1,2). MMP is divided
into two major subtypes, anti-BP180-type MMP and
anti-laminin-332 (previously called laminin 5 or epiligrin)
MMP. Anti-laminin-332 MMP is known to be
associated with malignant tumors (3), which may
cause overexpression of autoantibodies and induce
autoimmunity to laminin-332 (4). MMP primarily affects
the mucous membranes, and widespread skin
lesions are rare. In MMP, circumscribed skin lesions
have been previously reported as occurring on the
head, neck, and upper trunk (5). We report a case of
anti-laminin-332 MMP presenting with symmetrical
skin lesions characteristic of MMP on the weightbearing
areas of the gluteal region
