Generalized atrophic benign form of junctional epidermolysis bullosa.

There are at least six variants of junctional epidermolysis bullosa (JEB). About 20 cases of the generalized atrophic benign variant of JEB (GABEB) have been previously reported. We present an additional case of GABEB, occurring in a 14-year-old girl. Generalized cutaneous blisters occurred since birth and healed without severe scarring or milia, but with slight atrophy. In addition, mucous membrane involvement and hair, nail and tooth abnormalities were found. Electron microscopic examination showed a cleavage within the lamina lucida and the presence of numerically and structurally abnormal hemidesmosomes.

Captopril-induced lichen planus pemphigoides with pemphigus-like features. A case report.

We report a case of a bullous lichenoid eruption due to the intake of captopril. Clinical, histological, direct immunofluorescence and ultrastructural features were consistent with the diagnosis of lichen planus pemphigoides. In addition, the in vivo immunological study also revealed an intercellular fluorescence, similar to that seen in pemphigus. Complex drug-induced cutaneous reactions have been previously reported with other drugs, especially with D-penicillamine, which bears chemical similarities with captopril. However, such a drug-induced mixed pattern of lichen planus pemphigoides with pemphigus-like features has never been reported.

Cutaneous manifestations in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Cutaneous lesions arising during the course of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), generally of the B-cell type, are frequent. Three types of cutaneous manifestations must be differentiated: (1) specific lesions, (2) cutaneous manifestations closely related to the disease but without a leukemoid infiltrate and (3) associations with various dermatologic conditions. The various clinical features are discussed.
