Neonatal Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia with t(9;11) Translocation Presenting as Blueberry Muffin Baby: Successful Treatment by ALL-BFM Induction Therapy, Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation from an Unrelated Donor, and PCR-MRD-Guided Post-Transplant Follow-Up.

BACKGROUND Neonatal acute leukemia is a rare condition. Little is known about its incidence and outcomes, and treatment options have not been standardized. CASE REPORT A 3-day old, apparently healthy male newborn was referred to the pediatric intensive care unit with multiple violaceous macules and a few papules on his face and upper trunk.

Pityriasis lichenoides acuta (PLEVA) pemphigoides: A rare bullous variant of PLEVA.

Although the clinical presentations of patients with pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta (PLEVA) may vary, bullae are not usually part of the clinical spectrum. To date, only two other cases of a bullous variant of PLEVA with evidence of autoantibodies against hemidesmosomal antigens have been reported. The term PLEVA pemphigoides was suggested for this unique clinical, pathological and serological combination of both PLEVA and bullous pemphigoid.
