Cicatricial pemphigoid with circulating antibasement membrane antibodies. Report of three atypical cases.

3 patients had cicatricial pemphigoid with positive indirect immunofluorescence to basement membrane. 1 patient had remarkably mid disease; another had high titers of autoantibody; and the third was partially responsive to sulfapyridine. All 3 patients were women, as has been true most other reported cases. Antibody titers seemed to correlate with disease activity but not with disease extent.
