Bullosis diabeticorum: Zwei Kasuistiken

: We report two cases of patients with diabetes mellitus who developed bullae measuring 2 cm in diameter on the fingers or toes, which could be classified as bullosis diabeticorum after excluding several differential diagnoses that are discussed. Bullosis diabeticorum is a rare blister formation located on the palmoplantar region, which is mainly observed in the case of diabetic patients. The clinical picture is characterized by tense bullae measuring up to 10 cm in diameter, containing clear to hemorrhagic fluid. Generally, lesions heal without residual scarring, less frequently with residual postinflammatory pigmentation or tender scars. On histopathological examination, both intraepidermal and subepidermal bullae are found without any significant inflammatory infiltrate. The etiopathogenesis of bullosis diabeticorum has not yet been clarified.
