Vesicular Darier’s disease: a case report and review of the English literature of a rare disease variant
Ahmed Mourad, Habib A Kurwa, Richard M Haber- General Medicine
Darier’s disease is an autosomal dominant inherited skin disorder resulting from mutations in the ATP2A2 gene, which encodes SERCA2, an endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase. Darier’s disease classically manifests as confluent hyperkeratotic brown-to-red papules that manifest and follow a seborrheic distribution, which include the chest, neck, trunk, and face. Vesicular Darier’s disease is a rare variant of the disorder where patients develop numerous vesicles and bullae concurrently or independent of the more typical lesions found in Darier’s disease.
