Trichoblastic infundibular cyst.

We report 4 cases of an infundibular cyst that histopathologically showed small papillary projections of follicular germinative cells emanating from the basal layer of the cyst wall. Some of these projections branched and formed a reticulated pattern. This cystic lesion is histopathologically distinctive. We propose to designate it as a trichoblastic infundibular cyst because its lining resembles that of an infundibular cyst, yet it has cells that resemble those of the follicular germ in its wall.

Erythema induratum of Bazin in an infant after Bacille Calmette-Guerin vaccination.

We report the first case of erythema induratum of Bazin (EIB) after Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccination in an infant. The patient developed recurrent multiple erythematous and subcutaneous nodules on his legs 2 months after a BCG vaccination. He had no other symptoms or family history of tuberculosis (TB). Histopathological findings revealed a granulomatous lobular panniculitis. EIB often appears as a chronic, nodular eruptions that frequently occur on the lower legs of females with tuberculin hypersensitivity. To date, only a few cases of infants with EIB have been reported. There have been no clinical reports of EIB after BCG vaccination. Our case suggests that Mycobacterium bovis in the BCG vaccination may have caused EIB.
