Extensive dermal metastases from primary signet-ring carcinoma of the urinary bladder.

Dermal metastasis from internal carcinoma occurs infrequently. Bladder carcinoma is a rare source of skin metastasis. This report details the case of a twenty-five-year-old man with a fatal primary signet-ring adenocarcinoma of the bladder who experienced unique, extensive, infiltrative, cutaneous metastases within a few weeks of his initial presentation with an occultly carcinomatous ruptured spleen. The literature on cutaneous metastasis from carcinoma of the bladder is reviewed.

Widespread Candida folliculitis in a nontoxic patient.

We present a case of widespread Candida folliculitis in a nontoxic, immunocompetent woman. Predisposing factors included obesity and use of systemic antibiotics and topical steroids. Diagnosis was made through potassium hydroxide and Gram's stain examination of the pustular contents. The patient was treated with oral ketoconazole and topical econazole, with resolution of the eruption in six weeks. We suggest that temperature played a role in the follicular location of the lesions.

An ensuing oral diagnostic workup showed that the patient was suffering from iron deficiency anemia secondary to blood loss caused by a tumor in the large intestine. The original oral symptoms resolved after a right hemicolectomy.
