Abstract
Total knee arthroplasty is one of the safest and most routinely performed orthopedic procedures. As the volume of cases is expected to rise each year, so too will the incidence of uncommon complications. We describe a rare case of bullous pemphigoid, an autoimmune skin blistering disorder, that occurred after total knee arthroplasty in an otherwise healthy patient and led to hospital readmission. Early diagnosis and treatment of this condition may limit its spread and help to avoid comorbid sequelae.
