Abstract
The second case of pemphigus associated with Hodgkin's disease is reported. Circulating pemphigus auto‐antibodies were detected in this patient and cell‐mediated (T cell) immunity was markedly depressed. It is postulated that this T‐cell immunodepression predisposed the patient to the development of pemphigus.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
