ResumenLa dermatitis herpetiforme, también denominada enfermedad de Duhring-Brocq, es una enfermedad caracterizada por una erupcioì n papulovesiculosa croì nica, simeì trica, localizada principalmente en superficies de extensión, recidivante, con prurito intenso. Se asocia a enteropatiì a sensible al gluten. Su diagnóstico se basa en la clínica, la anatomía patológica e inmunofluorescencia directa, además de pruebas serológicas.Se presenta el caso de un joven con lesiones cutáneas pruriginosas cuyos estudios confirmaron el diagnóstico de dermatitis herpetiforme y en la investigación gastrointestinal por endoscopía e histología se confirma una enfermedad celiaca que no presentaba síntomas.Palabras claves: dermatitis herpetiforme, enteropatía sensible al gluten, enfermedad celiaca AbstractDermatitis herpetiformis, also called Duhring-Brocq disease, is a recurrent disease characterized by symmetric chronic papulo-vesicular eruption, mainly located in extension surfaces, and intense pruritus. It is associated with a gluten-sensitive enteropathy. Its diagnosis is based on clinics, pathological anatomy and direct immunofluorescence apart from serological tests. We report the case of a youth with pruritic cutaneous lesions, whose studies confirmed the diagnosis of dermatitis herpetiformis. In the gastrointestinal investigation, using endoscopy and histology, a celiac disease, which did not present symptoms, was confirmed. Rivelli , Graciela Gorostiaga , Arnaldo Aldama
