Abstract

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is known to be associated with various comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus and neurological disorders. However, its association with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been occasionally reported. We hereby report a case of a middle-aged female with BP as well as HIV infection and explore the association between the two conditions.
