Abstrakt: Pruritus is highly prevalent in the dialysis population. Its etiology however remains often unclear with uremic pruritus primarily suspected unless compelling evidence of another cause. Although bullous pemphigoid (BP) is considered idiopathic, there are growing data in the literature on BP provoked by different factors, such as medications or surgical procedures. These secondary dermatoses are described as rather mild conditions and more frequent in the elderly Caucasian. We herein describe a newly dialyzed African man of 76 years old, treated by a sulfonylurea such as an antidiabetic drug, who developed a severe BP after jugular catheter placement.
