Abstract
We describe a 65-year-old Caucasian man with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinaemia who developed paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) 3 years after his haematological diagnosis. This is a very rare malignancy that is associated with PNP. The evolution of PNP in this patient appears to exhibit the postulated immunological phenomenon of epitope spreading.
