Grover’s disease (GD) manifests as papules, papulovesicles or small nodules, which are self-limiting, usually lasting up to several months. The histopathologic hallmark of GD is primary acantholysis frequently combined with dyskeratosis. GD has been associated with a variety of systemic and cutaneous diseases. However, association with other primary acantholytic disorders has been rarely documented. Herein, we describe the first case of GD in association with pemphigus vulgaris (PV).
