Semin Cutan Med Surg. 2004 Mar;23(1):2-9. doi: 10.1016/s1085-5629(03)00082-8.

Abstract

The intraepidermal vesiculobullous disorders constitute a wide variety of pathogenically unrelated disorders that share in common the formation of cleft or bullae formation within the epithelium. The etiologic, pathogenic, clinical and, in particular, the histopathologic attributes of the most important intraepidermal blistering conditions are described.
