ABSTRACT
Paraneoplastic pemphigus is an autoimmune blistering diseases
secondary to internal neoplasms, known as paraneoplastic autoimmune
multiorgan syndrome. Other organs can be involved,
including the respiratory epithelium. Improvement of dermatological
lesions has been observed after excision of the tumor. The definitive
treatment is the management of the underlying neoplasm,
a combination of steroids and immunosuppressors. The prognosis
is poor, with a mortality of 90%. We report a 65-year-old male hospitalized
for complications of urinary tract infection, with pemphigus
and a renal malignant neoplasm.
