Hypotrichosis-lymphoedema-telangiectasia syndrome (HLTS) can be identified by defects in the superficial vasculature, lymphatic system and hair follicles. We report a case of a 25-year-old female who presented with sparse hair throughout the scalp, body, eyebrows, nasal telangiectasia and oedema of the lower limbs. Once the patient is diagnosed with HLTS, lifelong monitoring of vascular integrity is essential.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) associated pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) or PRP Type VI is a distinctive entity reported in HIV patients. We report a patient with skin Type V (based on the Fitzpatrick scale), and HIV infection, presenting with an atypical clinical manifestation (non-acneiform), and with an uncommon distribution of this entity but characteristic histological findings of Type VI PRP. We review the clinical features, pathology and possible aetiology of this entity.
据报道,与人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)相关的丝状红斑(PRP)或 PRP VI 型是 HIV 患者的一种特殊类型。我们报告了一名皮肤类型为 V 型(基于菲茨帕特里克量表)并感染了 HIV 的患者,其临床表现不典型(非痤疮样),分布不常见,但组织学结果具有 VI 型 PRP 的特征。我们回顾了这一疾病的临床特征、病理和可能的病因。

Reticular erythematous mucinosis is a rare entity characterised by mucin deposition in the skin. It has been reported in association with a few autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes mellitus, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. It is commonly misdiagnosed and treated as photodermatitis due to its subtle presentation. The case is being reported due to its rarity.

Melanoacanthoma (MA) is an uncommon benign tumour confined to the epidermis. It is formed by aggregation of pigment-producing melanocytes and keratinocytes. It is a close differential of melanoma and hence has to be evaluated in detail. Here, we present a case of MA over the scalp along with its clinical and dermoscopic description.
黑棘皮瘤(Melanoacanthoma,MA)是一种不常见的良性肿瘤,局限于表皮。它由产生色素的黑色素细胞和角质细胞聚集而成。它与黑色素瘤有密切的鉴别,因此必须对其进行详细评估。在此,我们将介绍一例头皮 MA 病例及其临床和皮肤镜描述。

Immunocompromised districts are the localised areas of immune deficiency in skin. It is more vulnerable than the rest of the body for infections or other dermatoses. The factors responsible for localised immune dysregulation can be multifarious such as herpetic infections, burns, trauma, ionising or ultraviolet radiations and chronic lymphatic stasis. Herpes simplex virus belongs to the herpesviridae family and can cause mucocutaneous as well as genital skin lesions. Here, we report a rare presentation of disseminated herpes simplex infection over the dermatophytosis skin lesions in a tuberculosis patient with chronic kidney disease.

Pemphigus is a group of autoimmune blistering disease characterised by blisters affecting the skin and or mucosae. Herpes simplex virus (HSV) 1 is known to result in recalcitrant oral lesions of pemphigus. It is rarely described in association with pemphigus foliaceus. Here, we describe a middle aged man who had persistent erosions on the face despite adequate disease control in other body parts. Screening for secondary infection yielded HSV-1 by polymerase chain reaction.
