Abstrakt: A 69‐year‐old Japanese man developed multiple nodular granulomatous cutaneous lesions caused by Trichophyton rubrumduring treatment of bullous pemphigoid. One and a half months after the initiation of oral corticosteroid therapy, the lesions appeared. He had suffered from tinea pedis for several decades. Oral ketoconazole was given for 6 weeks with remarkable improvement. Trichophytic granuloma is a rare but important complication of bullous pemphigoid.
