Background: Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), a severe cutaneous hypersensitivity reaction induced particularly by drugs, is diagnosed when there is a fever of ≥ 38 °C, mucocutaneous symptoms, a rash with multiple erythema, and skin peeling of ≥ 30% of the body surface area. The mortality rate of TEN is high, and thrombocytopenia during treatment can lead to severe outcomes. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) is used when steroids are ineffective in TEN and may improve mortality; however, thrombocytopenia is a rare adverse event associated with IVIg use.

Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is currently categorized as a primary lymphoproliferative disorder that follows a chronic, recurrent clinical course. The diagnosis of LyP is mainly based on clinical presentation and histopathological correlation. Six subtypes of LyP have been described and recognized, each with different histological features and sometimes distinct clinical presentations.

Background: Dermatomyositis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting muscles and skin, often associated with an increased risk of cancer. Specific autoantibodies, including anti-TIF1 (Transcription Intermediary Factor 1), have been linked to this risk. We present a case of dermatomyositis in a male patient positive for anti-TIF1 antibodies, subsequently diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the tonsil, a novel association not previously documented.

We aimed to update the current knowledge on oral manifestations in CD, to identify evidence gaps and to point out future research lines.
