Linear IgA disease is a cutaneous bullous condition that, despite its rarity, has provoked considerable discussion!" 3. Most authorities regard it as a variant of dermatitis herpetiformis (DH), although some workers have viewed it as a form of pemphigoid". Like classical DH, however, it does respond to dapsone. Since at least 1909,cutaneous bullous disorders (such as classical DH) have been known to be associated on occasions with an increased risk of developing internal malignant disease". Preliminary results from a major study that investigated the incidence of malignant neoplasia in DH sufferers, and in which a small number of cases oflinear IgA disease (8 in total) were encountered, lent support to the hypothesis that, as is the situation with classical DH, patients with linear IgA disease may have an increased risk of developing neoplastic Iesions", A case is now reported in which a patient developed squamous carcinoma of the oesophagus 15 months after a diagnosis of linear IgA disease had been established.
