Generalized skin reaction following tinea pedis (dermatophytids).

An 11-year-old boy presented with inflamed tinea pedis followed by a generalized id type skin eruption, with disappearance of the rash after treatment of the mycotic foot lesions. The pathogenesis of this process is not precisely known. Fungal infection was not detected from the generalized skin lesions. Various clinical forms of dermatophytid reaction are discussed.

Metastatic melanoma of unknown primary tumor.

The appearance of metastasis without clinically demonstrable primary tumor is one of melanoma's challenges. The aim of this study was to recognize the specific characteristics of this occurrence. Based on our study of three patients, we have proposed theories to explain this behavior, its clinical approach, and therapeutic management. We conclude by stressing the importance of finding the primary tumor or traces of it.

Malignant atrophic papulosis. A report of two cases with altered fibrinolysis and platelet function.

Malignant atrophic papulosis is a systemic vaso-occlusive disorder characterized by typical skin lesions. We report two new cases with impairment of blood fibrinolytic activity and alterations in platelet function. The first case showed an increase in plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) activity, and the second case had a decrease in platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate and adrenaline but normal with collagen. The impairment of blood fibrinolytic activity and platelet aggregation may have pathogenic and therapeutic implications in malignant atrophic papulosis.

Occult spinal dysraphism: a neurosurgical problem with a dermatologic hallmark.

Lumbosacral congenital cutaneous lesions have been recognized for a long time by neurologists and neurosurgeons as markers of occult spinal defects, but only a few cases have been published and discussed in the dermatologic literature. Based on a case report, we emphasize the importance of early diagnosis of these lesions, the use of new diagnostic techniques, and the correct management.
