Cureus
July 2024
Neurology, Saint Louis University School of Medicine, Saint Louis, USA.
Behçet's disease is a rare multisystemic vasculitis characterized by oral ulcers, genital ulcers, and skin and ocular lesions. Neuro-Behçet's syndrome is a condition in which individuals with Behçet's disease experience neurological symptoms that cannot be attributed to other neurological diseases. We present a rare case of neuro-Behçet's syndrome with acute internuclear ophthalmoplegia and deteriorating neurological function with a prior history of recurrent oral ulcers with pathergy-like features, acneiform papulopustular rash, retinal hemorrhages, and recurrent epididymitis without genital ulcers.

Article Synopsis
- Cutaneous lesions of secondary syphilis are highly infectious and can closely resemble other skin disorders, complicating diagnosis, with rashes typically appearing as non-itchy red to copper-colored spots on various body parts, including palms and soles.
- In a unique case, a 61-year-old man developed a rapidly progressive purpuric rash, accompanied by fatigue and other systemic symptoms, which was initially mistaken for small-vessel vasculitis.
- A detailed examination and skin biopsy ultimately revealed features consistent with secondary syphilis, including the presence of spirochetes and signs of kidney damage linked to IgA nephropathy.
A Review of the Diagnostic and Therapeutic Gaps in Rosacea Management: Consensus Opinion.
Dermatol Ther (Heidelb)
February 2024

Rosacea is a common, chronic inflammatory disease characterized by both fluctuating and fixed heterogeneous signs such as facial erythema, papules/pustules, telangiectasia, acute vasodilation (flushing), and phymatous changes, and symptoms such as cutaneous stinging and burning. The shift to a phenotype-based approach to rosacea management has improved the consistency of recommendations across recent published guidelines. Consistent and thorough guidance for the classification, diagnosis, and management of the disease is difficult, as the mechanisms underlying the development of rosacea are still not completely understood nor universally accepted.
