Risk of All-Cause Mortality, Cardiovascular Disease Mortality, and Cancer Mortality in Patients With Bullous Pemphigoid.

Importance: The role of bullous pemphigoid (BP) in cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality remains controversial, and analyses of causes of death among patients with BP based on individual data remain lacking.

Objective: To evaluate the risk of all-cause mortality, CVD mortality, and cancer mortality in patients with BP.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This cohort study identified patients who received a diagnosis of and treatment for BP during their dermatology clinic visits at a tertiary medical center in central Taiwan between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2017.

Co-existence of Langerhans cell histiocytosis and reticulohistiocytosis with initial presentation of skull lesions: A case report.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare histiocytic disorder resulting from dysregulated clonal proliferation of Langerhans cells. Reticulohistiocytosis (RH) is another rare histiocytosis caused by the proliferation of histiocytes other than Langerhans cells. Co-existence of LCH and RH in different organs and in the same skin area has not been reported.
