Dermatoses bulleuses auto-immunes chez les enfants

Auto-immune bullous diseases (AIBD) are rare in children. Although their pathogenesis is similar to their adult counterpart, there are differences in the clinical presentation. Moreover certain AIBD prevail at certain ages. There are no guidelines for the treatment of AIBD specific for children. In this review the recent literature is summarised with attention to recent data including diagnostic criteria. We also propose a treatment algorithm.
