- Abstract: Linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LABD) is a rare autoimmune/inflammatory skin condition. Here, we report on a patient who developed treatment resistant LABD. At diagnosis, elevations of IL‐6 and C‐reactive protein in the blood and extreme elevations of IL‐6 in LABD bullous fluid were seen. The patient responded well to tocilizumab (anti‐IL‐6 receptor) treatment.
