Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a very rare acquired immunbullous disease in children and infants. We report the case of a 15-month-old boy referred to our service with multiple tense bullae located predominantly on the trunk, neck and proximal portion of the limbs. ⋯ The patient responded well to systemic steroids, with improvement of his condition. After a 10-year follow up the patient was no longer suffering from the disease.
