Sildenafil-induced drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms.

Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS)/drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS) is a life-threatening, multi-organ adverse drug reaction with a mortality rate of approximately 10 %-20 %. The most common culprit drugs are anticonvulsants, some antibiotics such as dapsone and minocycline, salazosulfapyridine, allopurinol and some antiretroviral molecules such as abacavir and nevirapine. Only one case of DRESS induced by sildenafil has been reported in the literature.

Cutaneous Metastases: Clinicopathologic Study of 30 Patients.

Cutaneous metastases (CMs) of internal malignancies are uncommon. The breast in women and the lung in men represent the two elective sites of internal malignancies metastasizing to the skin. The aim of this study was to determine the epidemiologic, clinical, and pathologic features of CMs.
