Snowshoe hares (Lepus americanus) in the Upper Peninsula (UP) of Michigan, USA, occupy the southern periphery of the species' range and are vulnerable to climate change. In the eastern UP, hares are isolated by the Great Lakes, potentially exacerbating exposure to climate-change-induced habitat alterations. Climate change is also measurably affecting distribution and prevalence of vector-borne pathogens in North America, and increases in disease occurrence and prevalence can be one signal of climate-stressed wildlife populations.

Dear Editor, Pemphigus vegetans (PV) of Hallopeau is a rare and indolent variant of pemphigus clinically characterized by vegetating lesions preceded by pustules mainly in flexural areas (1,2). This helps us to differentiate it from PV of Neumann, which is a more extensive and refractory disease, more alike to a pemphigus vulgaris outbreak with blisters which turn into vegetating plaques (3). We report the clinical presentation, course, and therapeutic response in a patient diagnosed with PV of Hallopeau from its early stage during a 3-year follow up.

[Ulcerative Zoon's balanitis].

Rev Med Liege

July 2023

Service de Dermatologie, CHU Liège, Belgique.

Article Synopsis
  • - Zoon's balanitis is a rare skin condition affecting the genital area, typically showing as a red-orange spot with a "cayenne pepper" look, mostly in uncircumcised middle-aged to older men.
  • - It can sometimes present in atypical forms, such as lesions that are vegetative or ulcerative, and while it's usually benign, it can occur alongside other skin issues.
  • - Topical treatments often fail, and symptoms frequently return after stopping treatment, so circumcision is considered an effective option that usually leads to quick and complete relief from symptoms.
