A patient with bullous pemphigoid developed a bizarre transient figurate erythematous eruption which clinically resembled erythema gyratum repens in the absence of any demonstrable underlying malignancy. An unusual feature was the eruption of fresh bullae within the erythematous areas, biopsy of which revealed the characteristic histological and immunofluorescence changes of pemphigoid. The relationship between the annular erythemas and the auto‐immune bullous disorders is discussed.
