The differential diagnosis of noninfectious desquamative inflammatory vaginitis includes pemphigus vulgaris, erosive lichen planus and benign mucous membrane pemphigoid. A 32-year-old woman had persistent, noninfectious, erosive vaginitis and linear deposits of IgA in the vaginal epithelial basement membrane zone. The differential diagnosis should be expanded to include mucosal involvement by linear IgA disease, a cutaneous vesiculobullous disorder.
