ABSTRACT

A 37-year-old pregnant woman with a two week s papulovesicular eruption is reported. The histopathological examination showed a Grover s disease. This is an atypical case of a relatively common condition. Herein, we discuss the possible involvement of pregnancy in the pathogenesis of transient acantolitic dermatosis.
