Abstract
Bullous pemphigoid is an unusual condition that occurs rarely as a complication following radiotherapy. Because of the difficulties in the diagnosis of this disease and the need for raising awareness of such as a complication of therapeutic intervention we present a case report and review of the literature with discussion to highlight this disease which can confound the management of breast cancer.
