There have been limited published data on the management pathway of patients presenting to the emergency department with skin conditions. We report the pathway of patients presenting with skin conditions to a large tertiary hospital for 1 year and make recommendations to optimise the available dermatological services.

Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is a cutaneous drug reaction which occurs repeatedly at a given mucocutaneous site after exposure to the causative agent. Lesions typically occur on extremities, oral mucosa and genital skin. Quinine is a common food additive and is recognised as a rare cause of FDE. We report a case of FDE with oral and genital lesions presenting to a sexual health clinic due to quinine contained in tonic water.

Peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL, NOS) is a rare, heterogeneous group of nodal and extranodal mature T-cell lymphomas that do not correspond to any of the defined T-cell entities, according to the World Health Organization classification. Most cases present with late stage nodal disease; however extranodal involvement is common. Skin and subcutaneous involvement is reported in approximately 20% of cases. Little attention has been given to the highly variable skin manifestations in the literature. It is our experience that lesions can present in ways other than previously described nodular or tumourous lesions that often ulcerate. We present a case series from a large tertiary institution of seven cases of PTCL, NOS with skin involvement, highlighting the variable presentations and diagnostic challenges for this heterogeneous group.

Neurological involvement is a rare extracutanenous manifestation of Sweet's syndrome. We present a novel case of radiation therapy-induced neuro-Sweet disease in a patient receiving treatment for an oral squamous cell carcinoma.
