dc.description.abstractVulvar cicatricial pemphigoid is a rare variant of bullous pemphigoid, which is characterized by isolated and localized vulvar involvement, observed in childhood. The typical clinical finding is erosive lesions of the vulva healing with scar formation. Ocular involvement may be associated with vulvar disease or may develop during the follow-up. On histopathologic examination of the lesions, subepidermal blister and on direct immunofluorescence study, linear deposition of Ig G and C3 are observed. The differential diagnosis includes lichen sclerosus and, sexual abuse should be considered at first. Topical and systemic steroids and dapsone are the main treatment options. Ophthalmological examination and follow-up should be repeated on every six months for ocular involvement. Here, we report development of vulvar cicatricial pemphigoid in an 11-year-old girl with clinical and histopathological findings.en_US
