Ringworm-like late syphilides.
A peculiar form of late, superficial, serpiginous, non-ulcerative syphilides, leaving no visible scars, resembling clinically the ringworm of the glabrous skin, showing the granulomatous histopathological structure and relatively abundant T. pallidum, predominantly spread around the blood vessels is described.
[Hyperplasia of gingivae in the course of incomplete form of Melkersson-Rosenthal syndrome].
A case of incomplete Melkersson-Rosenthal (s. M-R) syndrome manifesting itself by the lower lip and cheeks' mucous membrane oedema and hyperplasia of gingivae has been described. Histopathological examination of the cheeks has demonstrated disseminated, perivascular inflammatory infiltrations of sarcoid type, whereas massive infiltration composed nearly exclusively of plasmatic cell has dominated in segments of gingivae. Electron microscopic examination has demonstrated increased migration of the cells resembling lymphocytes through the epithelium towards the surface and progressive morphological changes leading to the disintegration both lymphocytar cells and plasmatic ones and symptoms of interstitium fibrotic processes.

Rodent ulcer of the palm. A case report.
An ulcerous, infiltrating, mostly solid, partly cystic and keratotic type of basal cell carcinoma of the left palm, of about 5-years duration, in a 60-year-old woman is described. Light and electron microscopical findings are presented with some histogenetical considerations of the tumor.

Primary syphilis of the fingers.
Six patients were seen with primary syphilitic chancres on their fingers between 1965 and 1980. Of these, two had bipolar chancres on their fingers and genitals resulting from sexual foreplay. Because syphilis is rarely suspected in such cases diagnostic errors are common.
Early varioliform syphilis. A case report.
A 25-year-old man developed a rare form of early syphilis with smallpox-like eruptions, mainly in the groins and axillae. Histological examination of the syphilids showed an unusual structure with an exceptional number of Treponema pallidum within the epidermis.
Early malignant syphilis observed during infection and reinfection in the same patient.
Malignant syphilitic infections occurring in the same woman at an interval of 38 months is reported. The first infection was diagnosed as secondary papulopustular and ecthymatous syphilis. The reinfection was more severe, taking the form of secondary ulcerative syphilis with fever, general deterioration, and loss of weight. Numerous Treponema pallidum were present in the serum expressed from the papulopustular lesions during the first infection, but they were absent from the secretion expressed from the margins of the ulcerative symphilides during the reinfection. Many treponemes were present in the plasma cell infiltrates in histopathological sections of the biopsy specimens taken from the margin of the ulcers.
Giant keratocanthoma on the inner surface of the prepuce.
Gian keratoacanthoma on the inner surface of the prepuce was observed in a 45-year-old man. First symptoms had appeared three months earlier. The tumour was surgically removed. The main histological features of the tumour were enormous, but relatively regular, acanthosis of rete pegs revealing no similarity to the squamous-cell carcinoma, and an exclusively parakeratottic eleidine-containing central plug. The name parakeratoacanthoma is suggested for this type of tumour.
Keratopustular variety of framboesiform syphilis: a case report.
An unusual form of secondary syphilis is presented, characterised by eruption of keratopustular syphilides which became confluent on the genitals and on other surfaces of the body. Histologically an intensive intraepidermal multilocular pustule formation was followed by equally intense but incomplete keratinisation. Abundant oozing lesions forced the patient to keep the genitals in a plastic bag which led to the formation of an uncommon, giant condylomatous surface covering the scrotum and penis.

Syphilitic balanitis of Follmann developing after the appearance of the primary chancre. A case report.
A case of primary syphilitic chancre of the coronal sulcus with subsequent development of syphilitic balanitis of Follmann is described. The histopathological picture and preponderantly intraepidermal localization of T. pallidum in the lesions is discussed.
