[Evolution of biochemical and hematological parameters in patients living with HIV/AIDS treated with antiretroviral therapy at the Aboubacar Sangoulé Lamizana General Camp Medical Center].

Introduction: This study aimed to evaluate the impact of treatment on biochemical and hematological parameters in HIV-positive patients followed up at the Aboubacar Sangoulé Lamizana General Camp Medical Center in Burkina Faso.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective study over the period January 2010-September 2015. The study only included HIV-positive patients treated with ART having undergone laboratory tests at treatment initiation (M0), at sixth month (M6), and at twelfth month (M12).

Dermatitis cruris pustulosa et atrophicans--a frequent but poorly understood tropical skin condition--a case report from Burkina Faso.

Dermatitis cruris pustulosa et atrophicans (DCPA) is a benign inflammatory skin disease of the younger population in the tropics. Although this pustular skin condition of particular topography is frequently seen by dermatologists in tropical countries, its origin remains unknown. We report the case of a young woman with DCPA associated with prurigo nodularis.
