Tazarotene is as effective and well-tolerated as imiquimod in the treatment of verruca plana: a comparative randomized controlled trial.

Background: Plane warts, when multiple and recurrent, present a therapeutic challenge acting as a source of reinfection, causing frustration and affecting a patient's quality of life. For large numbers of lesions in cosmetically significant sites, topical treatment is preferred to avoid potential sequelae.

Objectives: To evaluate and compare the efficacy and tolerability of tazarotene 0.

Grasping knowledge, attitude, and perception towards monkeypox among healthcare workers and medical students: an Egyptian cross-sectional study.

Background: Monkeypox (Mpox) is a re-emerging infectious disease representing a new global challenge. It poses a substantial threat to countries, particularly those with a low number of cases. Due to its popularity as a tourist destination and its proximity to many African refugees, Egypt is potentially at risk of Mpox importation.

Triple Intralesional Antigen Immunotherapy versus Monoantigen in the Treatment of Multiple Recalcitrant Warts.

Introduction: Warts can be resistant to treatment or recur despite the use of various destructive and immunotherapeutic modalities. Combination immunotherapy might contribute to better response rates. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness and safety of a triple intralesional immunotherapy combination composed of purified protein derivative (PPD), Candida antigen, and measles-mumps-rubella vaccine (MMR), versus each agent alone, in the management of multiple recalcitrant warts.

H syndrome: A review of treatment options and a hypothesis of phenotypic variability.

H syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder with clinical features comprising: hyperpigmentation, hypertrichosis, hearing loss, heart anomalies, low height, hypogonadism and hepatosplenomegaly. H syndrome results from loss-of-function mutations in SLC29A3 which leads to abnormal proliferation and function of histiocytes. Herein, we discuss the considerable phenotypic heterogeneity detected in a consanguineous Egyptian family comprising of four affected siblings, two of which are monozygotic twin and the possible therapeutics.
