Cutaneous Light Chain Deposition Disease: A Report of 2 Cases and Review of the Literature.

Light chain deposition disease (LCDD) is a rare systemic disorder with deposition of mostly monoclonal amorphous nonamyloid light chains in multiple organs. Renal involvement with rapidly progressing renal failure presents the dominant manifestation of LCDD. Approximately 20%-30% of patients show symptomatic cardiac or liver involvement.

Intravascular (blood vessel) histiocytosis with haemophagocytosis.

Aims: Many types of intravascular lymphohistiocytic proliferation have been described recently; this was previously an unnoticed or misinterpreted phenomenon. Intralymphatic lymphohistiocytic aggregates are relatively common, and include benign, malignant and indeterminate conditions. In contrast, all non-endothelial proliferations in the lumina of blood vessels have been interpreted so far as malignant.

Lichen Sclerosus et Atrophicus with Cutaneous Distribution Simulating Lichen Planus.

While the anal and genital regions are predominantly affected, only 2.5% of patients present with extragenital lesions, particularly of the trunk, neck, and upper limbs.
