IgA multiple myeloma in a patient with an IgG pemphigus foliaceus-like exanthem.

TLDR
This work presents the unique co-occurrence of IgA kappa multiple myeloma (MM) and pemphigus foliaceus (PF), an IgGmediated subtype of pemPHigus.
Abstract
While the link between paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) and malignancy is well documented, reports of other pemphigus variants in association with neoplasms are scarcer. Reports have linked either IgA pemphigus with IgA monoclonal gammopathy or IgG-mediated pemphigus with IgG monoclonal gammopathy. We present the unique co-occurrence of IgA kappa multiple myeloma (MM) and pemphigus foliaceus (PF), an IgGmediated subtype of pemphigus.

Paraneoplastic pemphigus with cutaneous and serological features of pemphigus foliaceus

TL;DR: The study has been shown that this method is able to make a diagnosis of autoimmune bullous disease using microwave irradiation and the staining intensity in the microwave-irradiated sections was comparable with that obtained by the conventional method.
