The current article analyzes the topic of pemphigus vulgaris, which is described as an autoimmune disease affecting the skin and mucous membranes, characterized mainly by the formation of superficial blisters on the skin and oral mucosa. The objective was to present a case study of a patient with pemphigus vulgaris. A qualitative and descriptive investigation was carried out in this study. The 40-year-old male patient with pemphigus vulgaris had a complex but satisfactory evolution. Following an exacerbation in July 2023 and complications such as oral ulcers and ocular issues, he was hospitalized again. Aggressive treatment was initiated with medication adjustments, resulting in significa[1]nt improvement with remission of skin lesions, pain control, and no signs of infection. After multidisciplinary follow-up and treatment, he was discharged on November 8, 2023, showing a positive response and improved quality of life. This case highlights the importance of a comprehensive approach in pemphigus vulgaris treatment and the need for ongoing monitoring to prevent relapses and future complications.
