Erythema multiforme (EM) is a dermatological immune-mediated condition characterized by acute onset; in mild cases spontaneous regression may occur while non lethal severe cases require symptomatic and intensive care therapy. The aim of this report is to describe a case of EM in a twelve-year-old female crossbreed dog with erythematous and ulcerative skin lesions associated with hypersalivation, halitosis and fever, successfully treated with a single dose of intravenous human immunoglobulins (IVIg).
