Phakomatosis pigmentovascularis and Lisch nodules. Relationship between Von Recklinghausen and phakomatosis pigmentovascularis?

In 1947, Ota described a malformative syndrome associating a vascular component (nevus flammeus) with melanocytic or epidermic nevi, which he named phakomatosis pigmentovascularis (PPV). We will discuss the case of a 10-year-old boy presenting giant nevus flammeus, nevus spillus, asymmetry in the development of both lower limbs, characteristic of PPV, together with interventricular communication and Lisch nodules, representative of Von Recklinghausen's disease. We believe that this case can be classified as PPV type IIb, associated with Lisch nodules and rarely described in Caucasian individuals.

Cutaneous extranasal NK/T-cell lymphoma.

Malignant neoplasm from natural killer (NK) cells are characterized by their positivity for CD56 and absence of monoclonal TCR gene rearrangement. We present the case of a 54-year-old man with a fungous mass in his left flank whose histological examination was consistent with cutaneous extranasal T/NK cell lymphoma. We review the literature and also discuss the prognosis and treatment of this variety of lymphoma.
