Abstract
A 20-year-old female developed recurrent blisters since 5 years. The blisters occurred following trauma and healed with scarring and milia. Indirect immunofluorescence on the sodium chloride split skin confirmed the diagnosis of epidermolysis bullosa acquisita. The immunoglobulins were localised to the floor of the sodium chloride split skin.
