Bullous systemic lupus erythematosus (BSLE) is extremely rare but distinct disease, characterized by vesicobullous skin eruptions in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It can develop either before or after a diagnosis of SLE has been established. BSLE is characterized by a dermatitis herpetiformis-like histology and an autoimmunity to type VII collagen. It must be differentiated from other autoimmune vesicobullous diseases such as epidermolysis bullosa acquisita, dermatitis herpetiformis, linear IgA disease, and bullous pemphigoid. Its important to combine clinical, histological, and immunofluorescence findings to establish a diagnosis of BSLE. We report a case of BSLE to illustrate and emphasize the need for an integrative diagnostic approach.J MEDICINE JUL 2018; 19 (2) : 123-125

Itch which is one of the major, subjective symptoms in a course of bullous pemphigoid and dermatitis herpetiformis makes those two diseases totally different than other autoimmune blistering diseases. Its pathogenesis is still not fully known. The aim of this research was to assess the role of IL-31 in development of itch as well as to measure its intensity. Obtained results, as well as literature data, show that lower concentration of IL-31 in patients’ serum may be correlated with its role in JAK/STAT signaling pathway which is involved in development of autoimmune blistering disease. Intensity of itch is surprisingly huge problem for the patients and the obtained results are comparable with results presented by atopic patients.
