<p class="abstract">Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) is an autoimmune disease characterized by atrophic and discoid plaques over sun-exposed areas of skin and is the most common form of chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus. Vitiligo is also an autoimmune disease known to be associated with other autoimmune conditions. However coexistence of DLE and vitiligo has been reported uncommonly. We report a case of a 60-year-old lady who developed DLE lesions over pre-existing vitiligo lesions.</p>
<p>Acropustulosis is a benign cutaneous disease. It is characterized by recurrent crops of pruriginous vesicles, papules and pustules affecting the acral areas. It is self-resolving. Its etiology is unknown but it can be associated with scabies. Typically begins between 2 to 24 months of life, but can also occur in children. We report a case of infantile acropustulosis in a 11-year-old boy which started at the age of 3 years. </p>
