Abstract
Pemphigus is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune bullous disease that affects the oral mucosa and is sometimes difficult to diagnose when only mucosal involvement is present. We performed a retrospective descriptive study including 15 cases of isolated mucosal pemphigus (mPV). We noticed that this rare form is characterized by it slow healing, a female predominance with frequent relapses.
