Tuberous and tendinous xanthomata secondary to ritonavir-associated hyperlipidemia.
Xanthomas most often occur in conjunction with a primary or secondary disorder of lipid metabolism. A range of metabolic disturbances has been described in association with protease inhibitors, including lipodystrophy, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia. Ritonavir has been repeatedly shown to be the most common protease inhibitor to induce these metabolic abnormalities. This report highlights a case of both tuberous and tendinous xanthomata secondary to ritonavir-associated hyperlipidemia.

Case reports: suicidal ideation in the dermatology clinic.
Many dermatology patients have significant psychiatric comorbidities, including depression and suicidal ideation. In light of the isotretinoin controversy, the relevance of this subject has never been greater. Therefore, it is imperative for dermatologists to understand the appropriate actions to take when faced with a potentially suicidal patient. We present a case of a clinic patient who expressed suicidal intent and discuss necessary steps to take in such a situation.
