Abstract
A case report of Pemphigus Vulgaris will be presented. We shall be looking at its clinical, cytological and immunological aspects. Pemphigus Vulgaris is a rare disease that has, nevertheless, a very common oral expression (90-100% cases). It has the worst prognosis of all the blistering diseases, with a mortality rate of 90% without treatment that dropped to 30 to 40% with corticosteroids.
