Ichthyosiform sarcoidosis. Report of two cases and a review of the literature.

Although acquired ichthyosis has been associated with a number of systemic illnesses, an association with sarcoidosis has rarely been reported. We report two patients with acquired ichthyosis of the lower extremities whose diagnosis of cutaneous sarcoidosis was established by histologic examination. Systemic involvement in both patients included ocular and pulmonary disease. A diagnosis of sarcoidosis must be considered when a patient presents with acquired ichthyosis.

Torre's syndrome: report of two cases and review of the literature.

Two patients with multiple sebaceous adenomas associated with visceral carcinoma (Torre's syndrome) are described, and reported cases in the literature are summarized. Certain aspects of Torre's syndrome are emphasized: that the presence of multiple sebaceous adenomas is a cutaneous marker for visceral carcinomas, that the associated carcinomas are of comparatively low-grade malignancy, and that it is a genetic condition probably related to the Cancer Family syndrome. In addition, three morphologic patterns of the sebaceous adenoma are described: solid, cystic, and "keratoacanthoma-like"; then, the potential pitfalls in the histopathologic interpretation of this tumor are discussed.

Perforating lichen nitidus.

We report a second case of perforating lichen nitidus. This supports the occurrence of the transepidermal elimination phenomenon in lichen nitidus and justifies the addition of lichen nitidus to the family of perforating dermatoses.
