Cutaneous immunopathology: recent observations.

Immunofluorescent studies are currently being done on patients with pemphigus, pemphigoid, dermatitis, lupus erythematosus and its variants, the cutaneous prophyrias, scarring alopecia, erosive mouth lesions, light-sensitive disorders, and cutaneous vasculitis. In this paper I shall review some of the recent advances in immunopathology and report the results that have been obtained in our laboratory.
