We present an interesting image of eruptive syringoma confirmed by histopathological assessment in a 37-year-old male who was consulted due to numerous brownish small macules and papules resembling maculopapular cutaneous mastocytosis (MPCM). We show difficulties in diagnosing ES, given its rare occurrence and resemblance to other dermatological disorders. Moreover, we discuss the role of dermoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy in the differential diagnosis of syringoma.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study examined the prevalence of *spp.* mites in 2508 patients from northern Poland suspected of having demodicosis, with a total of 3684 tests conducted.
  • - Only 43.02% of the tests confirmed the presence of *spp.*, showing a positive correlation with the patient's age and higher detection rates on eyelids and facial skin.
  • - Men were found to have *spp.* more often than women, and effective diagnosis of demodicosis remains challenging due to vague symptoms and low confirmation rates, particularly among younger patients.

Introduction: The pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD) involves complex interactions between environmental factors, the skin microbiome, epidermal barrier defects, and altered immune responses that develop on a not fully understood specific genetic background.

Aim: We aimed to evaluate the contribution of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IL-35 genes ( and ) towards AD susceptibility and clinical characteristics of AD in the Polish population. Two SNPs (rs568408, rs582054) in and one SNP (rs428253) in were selected.
