Recurrent disseminated herpes zoster and cytomegalic perianal ulcer: a case report and review of the literature.

We describe a patient with lymphocytic leukemia who developed multiple, disseminated, vesiculopustular eruptions in combination with perianal ulcer. Four years earlier, she had a herpes zoster (HZ) infection involving the ophthalmic division of her left trigeminal nerve with subsequent postherpetic neuralgia that was treated with steroids. After the studies, we concluded that the patient had a recurrent disseminated HZ infection and perianal ulcer caused by cytomegalovirus (CMV).

Acanthosis nigricans: a cutaneous marker of tissue resistance to insulin.

Tissue resistance to insulin is a major feature underlying the development of acanthosis nigricans in many patients. We report two unusual cases of acanthosis nigricans with contrasting forms of insulin resistance and propose an algorithm for the evaluation of patients with acanthosis nigricans. Further, we present a schematic framework that emphasizes the role of insulin and insulin growth factors in the pathogenesis of acanthosis nigricans.
