Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune blistering disease, mucocutaneous, chronic, where the lesions in the mouth mucosa usually precede the skin lesions. Thus, the dentist has an important role in identifying the lesions, and the diagnosis must be done through an adequate clinical history and complementary exams. This article reports a case of pemphigus vulgaris in a male patient, 47, suffering from lesions in the skin and mouth mucosa.

Keywords : Pemphigus vulgaris; autoimmune disease; blistering lesions.
