In the routine care of Greece, infliximab reduced disease activity and improved the quality of life of moderate-to-severe psoriasis patients through 1 year of treatment, independent of their BMI and WC.
We report a case report of lupus vulgaris (LV) presented on the extremities of an 80-year-old man. He was misdiagnosed as having psoriasis and referred to our department for a second-opinion evaluation. The discrepancy between the clinical manifestation which was misleading and the dermatoscopic findings raised the suspicion of an underlying granulomatous disease and we proceeded to skin biopsy. The histopathologic examination set the diagnosis of LV.
Trichoepitheliomas are benign skin tumors with follicular differentiation that present most commonly as solitary lesions. They can also present as multiple centrofacial papules due to several mutations in the CYLD gene. Multiple unilateral trichoepitheliomas in a linear or dermatomal distribution may rarely be seen. Herein, we report a case of multiple unilateral trichoepitheliomas on the face of a healthy 34-year-old woman of Caucasian origin.
Hidradenoma Papilliferum (HP) is a rare benign appendageal tumor occurring mainly in the anogenital region of adult women. Diagnosis is based on histopathology due to the lack of specific clinical features. The treatment of choice is total excission. We describe a rare case of a 65-year-old woman who presented to our outpatient department with an enlarging nodule of the left labia majora of her vulva. The histological findings were consistent with the diagnosis of Hidradenoma Papilliferum.
