Still disease with persistent atypical dermatomyositis-like skin eruption: two cases associated with macrophage activation syndrome.

The typical rash of Still disease is an asymptomatic, salmon-coloured, macular, or maculopapular eruption that appears along with the fever spikes and fades when the body temperature drops. Although not included in the diagnostic criteria, there are other frequent, persistent, pruritic and polymorphic skin manifestations of Still disease that have distinctive clinical features and specific histological findings. Among these atypical persistent pruritic eruptions (PPEs), periorbital erythema and linear flagellate papules and plaques can resemble the cutaneous manifestations of dermatomyositis (DM).

Cutaneous and Mucosal Manifestations Associated with Celiac Disease.

Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated, gluten-induced enteropathy that affects predisposed individuals of all ages. Many patients with CD do not report gastrointestinal symptoms making it difficult to reach an early diagnosis. On the other hand, CD is related to a wide spectrum of extra-intestinal manifestations, with dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) being the best characterized.

Familial papular epidermal nevus with "skyline" basal cell layer.

Papular epidermal nevus with "skyline" basal cell layer is a variant of keratinocytic nevus that usually occurs sporadically but may affect different family members. We report on the fourth family with papular epidermal nevus with "skyline" basal cell layer affecting a 3-month-old girl and her father.
