[Chronic sclerodermiform syndrome disclosing subcutaneous T-cell lymphoma].

INTRODUCTION: Subcutaneous tissue is an uncommon primary localization for T-cell lymphomas. Panniculitis with recurrent papulonodules are reported in most cases. CASE REPORT: We report a case in which small-cell pleiomorphic non-Hodgkin lymphoma developed initially in subcutaneous tissue followed by secondary systemic extension. The first clinical manifestation was a sclerodermiform syndrome involving the four limbs. DISCUSSION: This type of lymphoma appears to have a polymorphic clinical presentation. Physicians should be aware of this type of lymphoma and use immunohistological techniques for early diagnosis.

Subcutaneous granuloma annulare in an adult.

A 38-year-old female presented with a history of recurrent multiple deep dermal nodules located on the dorsa of the feet, over the ankle joints and lower pretibial area. Laboratory investigation excluded rheumatoid arthritis. Histopathological examination showed changes in the deep dermis: histiocytes in palisades around foci consisting of degenerated bundles of collagen, mucin, fibrin and "nuclear dust". The diagnosis of subcutaneous granuloma annulare was made on the basis of the clinical and histological features. Treatment with dapsone was successful, and in the course of two months the nodules disappeared.

Unusual presentation of porokeratosis palmaris, plantaris et disseminata.

Porokeratosis plantaris, palmaris et disseminata is an autosomal dominant genodermatosis characterized by multiple lesions on the palms and soles, and later on other areas, both sun-exposed and non-sun-exposed. We report a 66-year-old man with porokeratosis plantaris, palmaris et disseminata whose disease had an unusual evolution. To our knowledge this is the first case of the disease in which the lesions first appeared on the trunk and extremities and later involved the palms and soles.

Neutrophilic figurate erythema of infancy.

We describe a transient figurate erythema in an 11-month-old female infant with a 2-month history of arcuate and annular erythematous lesions localized on the face, trunk, and limbs. Constitutional symptoms were absent. Previous medical history was unremarkable. Full blood examination, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, antistreptolysin-O titer, anti-Ro, and anti-La antibodies were within normal limits or negative. Histologic examination revealed a superficial and deep perivascular and interstitial dermatitis constituted mostly of neutrophils and abundant nuclear dust. The lesions resolved spontaneously within a few months without scarring or atrophy. Recurrence has not occurred. This case suggests that figurate erythemas in infants rarely may disclose a neutrophilic histologic pattern, which must be differentiated from that of other neutrophilic dermatoses.
