Background: Low-flow malformations (LFMs) are rare diseases with a significant impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL), especially in children. No disease-specific questionnaire is available for children with LFMs.
Objective: To develop and validate a specific HRQoL questionnaire for children from 11 to 15 years old suffering from LFMs.
Association of vulvar Crohn's disease (CD) with pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) has been described, yet due to its low prevalence, data on therapeutic management of this association are still limited. We here present a 22-year-old woman with severe vulvar and perianal CD with a major inguinal and perineal ulceration. In the hypothesis of an associated PG, oral corticosteroids were prescribed at a dose of 40 mg with limited efficacy for a duration of 3 months.

Background: Very few studies have evaluated the quality of life (QoL) of children suffering from low-flow vascular malformations. This is the first study investigating the influencing factors.
Objectives: To identify the factors influencing QoL in children with low-flow vascular malformations.
Paronychia and periungual pyogenic granuloma represent one of the most common and bothersome dermatologic toxicities observed with ErbB inhibitors. There is no standardized treatment, and management remains challenging. Moreover, conservative management with noninvasive treatment should be promoted for fragile patients in a metastatic setting.

Background: Regular cannabis use may be associated with several oral changes not usually identified by dermatologists: xerostomia, increased risk of caries, periodontitis, leukoedema, gingival hyperplasia, and higher prevalence and density of Candida albicans, leukoplakia or gingivitis.
Patients And Methods: We report herein the appearance of a characteristic green tongue in a patient following intensive marijuana inhalation.
Discussion: This complication has rarely been reported in the medical literature.

Background: Chronic HSV infection is a cause of chronic perineal ulcerations. We report a case of a chronic and refractory HSV infection revealing chronic lymphoid leukaemia.
Patients And Methods: An 85-year-old woman with an 8-month history of chronic perineal ulcerations was referred to our dermatology department.

In other discussion, it is confirmed by simple reasoning that the identification, explicit or implicit in various studies, of the mean projection of a polymer molecule onto a line as a characteristic dimension governing the extent of permeation of simple pores does not depend on specific molecular models. Our previous calculation of permeation by certain random-flight branched-chain species is shown to lead, incidentally, to the mean projection for these structures.
