Stevens-Johnson syndrome with a recall-like reaction within a donor graft site.

We describe a 69-year-old white man with a recent history of a left forearm sarcoma resection treated with a split-thickness skin graft and radiotherapy who presented with cellulitis of the left forearm, for which a 2-week course of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole was prescribed. Ten days into treatment, he presented with flu-like symptoms and a rash. He was eventually diagnosed with Stevens-Johnson syndrome accentuated on the donor split-thickness skin graft on the left thigh region mimicking a recall reaction.

Contrast-induced generalized bullous fixed drug eruption resembling Stevens-Johnson syndrome.

A 59-year-old woman with end-stage renal disease presented for suspected Stevens-Johnson syndrome that was ultimately diagnosed as generalized bullous fixed drug eruption (GBFDE) secondary to the administration of iodinated nonpolar radiocontrast. The patient had three previous episodes of a generalized bullous eruption after a thrombectomy, fistulogram, and an arteriovenous fistula revision, all requiring radiocontrast administration. Biopsies taken after previous eruptions demonstrated full-thickness epidermal necrosis, and she was diagnosed with Stevens-Johnson syndrome thought to be due to allopurinol.

Ischemic fasciitis in a debilitated older man.

We present the rare case of ischemic fasciitis in an elderly man with a history of Parkinson's disease. The patient presented with multiple subcutaneous masses on his lower back, ranging in size from 3 to 8 cm. Histopathologic evaluation showed areas of deep dermal and subcutaneous fibrinoid necrosis with granulation tissue-like vessels as well as reactive fibroblasts.

Urticaria multiforme in a 2-year-old girl.

We describe a 2-year-old girl who presented to the emergency department for a 2-day history of a rapidly spreading, pruritic, erythematous rash. There were large polycyclic annular erythematous wheals on the face, trunk, and extremities. Urticaria multiforme was diagnosed.

Darier disease with disseminated herpes simplex virus type 2 infection.

Darier disease (DD), also known as keratosis follicularis or Darier-White disease, is a rare autosomal dominant genodermatosis that presents as hyperkeratotic, warty papules affecting the seborrheic and intertriginous areas. Patients with DD are at risk of secondary infections including the rare complication of Kaposi varicelliform eruption (KVE), a widespread viral infection most commonly caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV). Darier disease with secondary KVE can lead to widespread systemic infection and death.
