Hailey-Hailey disease: the role of azathioprine an immunomodulator
Abstract
Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD) is a rare autosomal dominant hereditary blistering and erosions disorder affecting the intertriginous regions of the body. There is still no treatment protocol for this disease thus clinicians are highly advised to draw up individualized treatment plan. In this case report we discuss a case of HHD in a 58-year-old Chinese man who was successfully treated with azathioprine in Hubei province.
