[Eosinophilic migratory nodular panniculitis (human gnathostomiasis)].

The case of a patient with thoracic abdominal and left arm, migratory erythema-edematous plates over a space of three years is described. The histopathologic features reveal a eosinophilic panniculitis due to probable larva migrans (gnathostomiasis). This appears to be the first report on the subject because we have not found any reference to the subject in Argentina bibliographic search.

Two cases of infantile porphyria cutanea tarda: successful treatment with oral S-adenosyl-L-methionine and low-dose oral chloroquine.

In a 7-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy, with photosensitivity and hypertrichosis, the diagnosis of familial porphyria cutanea tarda was confirmed by the characteristic pattern of urinary porphyrin excretion, diminished erythrocyte uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase and elevated plasma porphyrin index with emission maxima at 617-618 nm. The patients were treated with a combination of low-dose oral chloroquine and oral S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM); in one case alkalinization of urine was also applied. Complete clinical and biochemical recovery was achieved within 3 months. No adverse ophthalmological or other side-effects were observed. We propose that the treatment of choice should be oral SAM (12 mg/kg/day) for 3 weeks and oral chloroquine (2 X 100 mg weekly) for about 120-150 days or until improvement of clinical and biochemical abnormalities is attained. So far no relapses have occurred. This combined therapy appears to be safe, simple, effective and very convenient for both patients and physicians.

These patches were limited by a slightly elevated erythematous border, the inside of which was constituted by collarette-like epidermal desquamations with central parakerotosis. The patches impairment was observed in the child's general condition. A histopathological study was carried out.
