Overview

Autoimmune bullous dermatoses (AIBD) are rare, potentially fatal diseases of the skin and mucous membranes. According to the level of blister formation, we divide them into the group of pemphigus withintraepidermal blister and the group with subepidermal blister, which includes bullous pemphigoid, pemphigoid gestationis, mucous membrane pemphigoid, linear IgA dermatosis, epidermolysis bullosa acquisita and dermatitis herpetiformis. This review discusses subepidermal AIBD, with a focus on current diagnostics and recommended therapy. Individual diseases are distinguished by target autoantigens, frequency, clinical picture, response to therapy and prognosis. It is very important to have comprehensive diagnostics that differentiates the individual types of the disease and determines the best therapeutic procedure.

Keywords:

bullous pemphigoid – pemphigoid gestationis – mucous membrane pemphigoid – linear IgA dermatosis – epidermolysis bullosa acquisita – dermatitis herpetiformis – diagnosis – therapy
