Linear IgA and IgG bullous dermatosis
Fernandes,Karina de Almeida Pinto; Galvis,Kely Hernández; Gomes,Anndressa Camillo da Matta Setubal; Nogueira,Osvania Maris; Felix,Paulo Antônio OldaniAbstract Childhood linear immunoglobulin A dermatosis is a rare autoimmune vesiculobullous disease. It results in linear deposition of autoantibodies (immunoglobulin A) against antigens in the basal membrane zone, leading to subepidermal cleavage. Additional depositions of immunoglobulin G and complement-3 might occur. It is still debated whether concomitant findings of immunoglobulins A and G should be conside...
