DRESS is a heterogeneous group of life-threatening conditions. The leading drug in DRESS in Taiwan is allopurinol. High eosinophil count and multiple underlying diseases are poor prognostic factors in patients with DRESS.

Genital PK appeared more frequently in the Asian population than in reports from western countries. Genital PK presented mostly as pruritic lesions in Taiwan, with a wide age distribution. Long-term follow-up might be needed.

Two patients presenting with chronic pigmented purpuric dermatosis (CPPD) on the dorsum of both feet were found to show granulomatous inflammation superimposed on the pathological changes of CPPD. Two similar cases have been reported from Japan. The unique clinicopathological features of this group of patients suggest that they have a rare granulomatous variant of CPPD.
