Vesiculobullous variant of erythema elevatum diutinum

Summary

The vesiculobullous variant of erythema elevatum diutinum (EED) is a very rare variant of EED. We describe a 16-year-old boy who presented with symmetrical nodular lesions accompanied by vesicles on the dorsa of his hands. Biopsy findings were consistent with EED. The histopathological presence of IgA and neutrophils in the vesicles indicates that the joint action of both is responsible for formation of these subepidermic vesicles. We hypothesize that absence of human leucocyte antigen related to dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) in our patient might have influenced the location and distribution of the lesions, so that they were not typical of DH. We report the second case of the vesiculobullous variant of EED with IgA deposits in the dermoepidermal membrane. To our knowledge, there are only 14 previously reported cases of the vesiculobullous variant of EED.
