Keratinocyte carcinomas (KCs) are, by far, the most common malignancies worldwide and exceed the prevalence of all other cancers combined. Traditionally, approximately 80% of KC cases have been attributed to basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and 20% to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). However, recent studies point to an increasing SCC incidence relative to BCC, moving the historical 4:1 ratio to 2.5:1 or even closer. [1]

Cicatricial (Scarring) alopecia (CA) refers to a group of uncommon inflammatory hair loss disorders which are characterized by the destruction of the hair follicle unit that is replaced by fibrous tissue and result in permanent hair loss. Clinically there is loss of visible follicular ostia. CAs are classified as primary cicatricial alopecia (PCA), secondary cicatricial alopecia and development/hereditary CA. In primary cicatricial alopecia (PCA), the hair follicle is the main target for destruction with sparing of the interfollicular reticular dermis. The inflammatory cells target and destroy the stem cells in the bulge area of hair follicles. PCA are divided into subgroups depending upon the predominant inflammatory infiltrates. The neutrophilic PCA group comprises folliculitis decalvans (FD) and dissecting cellulitis/folliculitis of the scalp (perifolliculitis abscedens et suffodiens) [1-5]. We here report five cases PCA showing complete remission after treatment based on oral zinc in combination with Nd:YAG laser

Dermatophytosis (syn. ringworm, tinea) is a zoonotic disease caused by a group of fungi called dermatophytes. Dermatophytosis has a worldwide distribution. It is the most frequent mycotic infection in both humans and animals [1]. Epidermophyton, Microsporum and Trichophyton are the main genera of dermatophytes. Based on their ecology, they are classified into anthropophilic, geophilic and zoophilic. They can directly infect human through a contact with the infested animal or human and indirectly by acquiring the infective materials from the environment [2]. The infection mainly occurs in young camels less than three years [3]. Trichophyton and Microsporum genera are responsible for the majority of human infections causing more virulent disease when the infection are transmitted from animal to human than that transmitted from human to human [4]. Outbreaks of Trichophyton infection transmitted from cattle to humans are also reported [5]. Tinea capitis (ringworm of the scalp) is the most common fungal infection in children. More than 90% of the infections are caused by Trichophyton tonsurans, and fewer than 5% are caused by Microsporum species [6].

Acral vitiligo (AV) is resistant to treatment [1, 2]. There are many factors help in developing this resistance. Low density of pilosebaceous follicles, melanocyte, melanocyte stem cell reservoirs, baseline epidermal stem cell factor from which the melanocytes could migrate, lower stem cell factor (SCF), c-kit, MHCII expression as well as lower density of Langerhans cells (LC), and high rate of koebnerization are playing roles in resistance of acral lesions [1,3,4]

Leukocytes or white platelets are cells that courses in our blood and body liquids and shield us from irresistible maladies or outside substances. Basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils, lymphocytes and monocytes are principle kinds of white platelets. Five fundamental sorts. White platelets have short life cycle, living from 10 days to about a month and they got and created from multipotent cell. They assume critical job in blood thickening, immerse microscopic organisms and produce antibodies. Leukocytes esterase is a compound found in leukocytes.

FUMHD is a rare life-threatening variant of pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta (PLEVA) that is characterized clinically by rapidly progressive necrotic and ulcerating skin lesions together with high fever and various systemic affections. Histological characteristics are typical of PLEVA. The exact pathogenesis of FUMHD remains unclear, with no universally effective treatment [1]. As far as we know, only one case was reported in our country (Lower Egypt) in children by Nofel et al in 2016 [2]. However, no cases were reported from Upper Egypt.

Microbial resistance to antibiotics is one of the most serious health threats threatening human well-being today. Antibiotic resistance is a type of drug resistance where a microorganism is able to survive exposure to an antibiotic [1]. Infections from resistant bacteria are now too common and some pathogens have even become resistant to multiple types or classes of antibiotics. The widespread use of antibiotics both inside and outside of medicine is playing a significant role in the emergence of resistant bacteria [2]. One such microbial resistance of much interest nowadays to the scientific world in general and medical perspective in particular is the resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosato different class of antibiotics.
