pemphigus vegetans

pemphigus vegetans
a variant of pemphigus vulgaris usually found in intertriginous areas or on the scalp or face, characterized by proliferating warty granulations arising from bullae and having a tendency to coalesce into patches. Two types are distinguished: the more benign Hallopeau type is characterized by pustular lesions that resolve without relapsing, and the more severe Neumann type is characterized by erosive blisters that evolve into vegetative plaques.
