Drug-induced linear IgA bullous dermatosis simulating toxic epidermal necrolysis

الملخص EN

Linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LAD) is an autoimmune subepidermal blistering disorder.

LAD may be either idiopathic or drug related; the most common drug being vancomycin.

The clinical presentations of both idiopathic and drug-related LAD are variable and may mimic other blistering disorders.

We report a case of a 76-year-old man known to have a renal cell carcinoma who presented a vancomycininduced LAD that clinically mimicked toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN).
