ABSTRAC Problem: Taking care of people hospitalized with pemphigus vulgaris is a complex process, since it is an autoimmune disease that leads to the formation of lesions of the skin and/or mucous membranes in an isolated or generalized form. Objective: To identify the nursing care recommended for people with pemphigus vulgaris. Method: Integrative review of the literature, using the keywords n...
Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a severe autoimmune disease involving blistering of the skin and mucous membranes. It is caused by autoantibodies against desmoglein 3 (Dsg3), an adhesion molecule critical for maintaining epithelial integrity in the skin, oral mucosa, and esophagus. Knowing the antigen targeted by the autoantibodies renders PV a valuable model of autoimmunity. Recently, a role for Ds...
Background: Since the systemic steroids are introduced in Pemphigus Vulgaris treatment, the prognosis of disease improved significantly. This study was designed to evaluate determining factors in the prognosis of pemphigus vulgaris in Iranian patients. Methods: In this study, 119 patients with documented pemphigus vulgaris who had presented to Razi Hospital from 2001 until 2003 were included. ...
In order to examine the efficacy and side effects of the monoclonal antibody anti-CD20 (rituximab) on autoimmune blistering skin diseases, we performed a comprehensive survey of 71 consecutive patients from initial use up to 2007, using the PubMed database. A heterogeneous group of patients, including 51 patients with pemphigus vulgaris, one with pemphigus vegetans, nine with pemphigus foliaceu...
The prototypic bullous skin diseases, pemphigus vulgaris, pemphigus foliaceus, and bullous pemphigoid, are characterized by the blister formation in the skin and/or oral mucosa in combination with circulating and deposited autoantibodies reactive with (hemi)desmosomes. Koch's postulates, adapted for autoimmune diseases, were applied on these skin diseases. It appears that all adapted Koch's pos...
Pemphigus Vegetans was first described as a variant of Pemphigus Vulgaris in 1876 by Neumann. In 1889, Hallopeau described a patient with pustules and vegetating plaques, suggesting that it would be a variant of Pemphigus Vegetans of Neumann. Both types of Pemphigus Vegetans are characterized by the development of vegetating plaques especially on skin folds (axillae, groin, perianal region). Th...
Abstract Pemphigus Vulgaris is a chronic autoimmune mucocutaneous disease, in which oral lesions could be the first site observed, although skin and other mucous membranes may also be affected. Clinically, the lesions are characterized by many painful blisters that rapidly rupture resulting in erosions and/or multiple ulcers in the oral mucosa and skin, which can be difficult to differentiate f...
Homeopathy treatment and pemphigus vulgaris: case series Dr. Shirani, A.M.* - Dr. Mousavi, F.** *Assistant Professor of Oral Medicine & Diagnosis Dept., Faculty of Dentistry, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences. **Associate Professor of Oral Medicine & Diagnosis Dept., Faculty of Dentistry, Tehran University / Medical Sciences. Abstract Introduction: Pemphigus vulgaris is a chronic vesicular...
Increased incidences of Kaposi's sarcoma and lymphoid malignancies have been observed in patients with pemphigus, and the human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8) is very strongly associated with these tumors. Because the virus may be one of the triggering factors of pemphigus, we undertook this study to screen for the presence of HHV-8 in chronic blistering skin diseases including pemphigus. A total of 45 ...
Background and Aim: Pemphigus is a chronic autoimmune blistering disease characterized by intraepidermal blisters. These blisters damage the skin barrier and increase the risk of life-threatening infections. Nasal colonization of Staphylococcus aureus can increase the risk of infections and delay the wound healing process.The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of staphylococcal...
