Pemphigoid nodularis is a rare variant of bullous pemphigoid characterized by the development of pruritic hyperkeratotic nodules. These nodules may be the presenting feature of the disease, and may precede the development of bullae by several years. The condition appears to be more common in females than males, and is often resistant to treatment. We report two definite cases and one possible case of pemphigoid nodularis, and review the literature relating to this disorder.
