A case of a bullous eruption occurred in a patient being treated with penicillamine for sclerodermatous graft-versus-host disease following bone marrow transplantation. After 7 days of treatment with 150 mg penicillamine, a painful bullous eruption with accompanying purpuric lesions suddenly developed in previous sclerodermatous infiltrations. A diagnosis of epidermolysis bullosa acquisita-like eruption was made, and the patient was treated with drug withdrawal and administration of cyclosporine and methylprednisolone. Epidermolysis bullosa acquisita-like reaction is an extremely rare cutaneous side effect of penicillamine. The surprisingly early onset of this eruption in lesions of sclerodermatous graft-versus-host disease might have been due to severe immune alteration.
