Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is the most common autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease of the skin and mucous membranes. This disease typically affects the elderly and presents with itch and localized or, most frequently, generalized bullous lesions.

The disease, which is significantly associated with neurological disorders, has high morbidity and severely impacts the quality of life.
