Dermatitis Herpetiformis also called Duhring's disease after the name of a physician who first described it, Louis Adolphus Duhring in 1884. Initially the disease was put in the category of bullous disease such as pemphigus vulgaris. Later in 1888. another physician named Brocq, described a similar lesion and named it Polymorphic pruritic dermatitis which showed same pathology as dermatitis herpetiformis. Thus, Duhring- Brocq's disease is the synonym for dermatitis herpetiformis. The difference in pathology of bullous diseases from dermatitis herpetiformis was found in 1943 by Civatte. In 1967, a link between dermatitis herpetiformis was established[1][2].
