Dermoscopic findings in neonatal leukemia cutis.

Leukemia cutis is the direct infiltration of cutaneous tissues by leukemic cells and can present as a blueberry muffin baby. We present a case of neonatal leukemia cutis highlighting its dermoscopic features, the presence of fine telangiectatic arborizing vessels distributed within a pink background within all lesions.

Congenital Atrophic Plaque: Fibroblastic Connective Tissue Nevus.

Fibroblastic connective tissue nevus (FCTN) is a rare, benign, dermal mesenchymal hamartoma that affects children. We report a 15-year-old boy with a congenital FCTN and describe the clinical, dermatoscopic, and histopathologic features.

Spontaneous Regression of a Plaque-Type Striated Muscle Hamartoma.

Striated muscle hamartoma (SMH) is a rare, congenital or acquired, benign tumor that predominantly affects children. Therapeutic management has classically been surgical intervention. We present a pediatric case of a facial plaque-type SMH with spontaneous regression that highlights the importance of clinical observation for a conservative approach.

Congenital Degos Disease: Case Report and Dermoscopic Findings.

Pediatric Degos disease is rare, with only 36 cases reported in the medical literature. Classically the diagnosis has been established according to pathognomonic histopathologic findings, but when these features are not present, there may be a delay in diagnosis. We report the second congenital case of Degos disease, highlighting the clinical and dermoscopic findings.

Vegetating Candidiasis: A Mimicker of Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Keratitis Ichthyosis Deafness Syndrome.

Keratitis ichthyosis deafness (KID) syndrome is a rare genodermatosis with a high risk of cutaneous malignancy and infections. Infections can induce pseudocarcinomatous epidermal hyperplasia, leading to erroneous diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma. We present a pediatric case of KID syndrome with vegetating plantar and acral candidiasis and highlight the importance of correct biopsy technique and clinicopathologic correlation in appropriate management.
