The dimorphic fungus Sporothrix schenckii commonly causes localized cutaneous disease with lymphocutaneous distribution. However, disseminated sporotrichosis occurs predominantly in immunocompromised patients. We report a case of disseminated cutaneous sporotrichosis in a patient with newly diagnosed HIV with a CD4 count of 208. The patient presented with multiple cutaneous and subcutaneous nodules as well as fever and malaise. Tissue culture and skin biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of sporotrichosis. He was started on itraconazole 200mg twice a day with rapid resolution of fever along with cessation of the development of new lesions.

Porokeratotic Variant of Lichen Planus: Lichen planus (LP) is a well-known dermatologic disorder with various different clinical presentations. We present a case of patient who was found to have porokeratotic lichen planus, a previously unreported variant of LP.

propose that MP be renamed miliaria alba, following the pattern of the clinically descriptive names for miliaria crystallina and miliaria rubra.
