Hailey-Hailey disease (chronic benign familial pemphigus) is a blister
ing disease characterized by episodic maceration and erosions in areas
subject to friction and trauma such as the neck, axilla, and other in
tertriginous areas, We report a case in which a griseofulvin-induced d
rug eruption led to a generalized vesiculobullous eruption requiring t
reatment in a burn treatment center, This emphasizes that Hailey-Haile
y disease, usually confined to relatively small areas, has the potenti
al to cause blistering throughout the epidermis under certain conditio
ns.
