Unrecognized skin conditions are highly prevalent among the elderly population.[10] Bullous pemphigoid (BP), an autoimmune dermatologic disease with greater incidence in the elderly, typically features pruritus, tense bullae formation, and negative Nikolsky's sign.[1,2] We describe a case of BP in an elderly Veteran that developed insidiously for months before it presented with a life-threatening secondary infection due to Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA).
未被识别的皮肤疾病在老年人群中极为普遍。[10] 大疱性类天疱疮（BP）是一种在老年人中发病率较高的自身免疫性皮肤病，其典型特征为瘙痒、紧张性水疱形成以及尼氏征阴性。[1,2] 我们描述了一例老年退伍军人的大疱性类天疱疮病例，该病例在数月内隐匿发展，随后因耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌（MRSA）引发了危及生命的继发感染。
