Hailey-Hailey disease (HHD), or benign familial pemphigus, is an autosomal dominant genodermatosis that usually presents between the second and fourth decades of life as painful blisters and erosions in the intertriginous areas.1 It is characterized by a remitting, relapsing course, and recurrent episodes of superinfection. HHD is caused by mutations in the ATP2C1 gene.
