Case for diagnosis. Dorsal nodule in a 10-year-old male,
This report describes the case of a 10-year-old male who presented with a dorsal nodule. A biopsy revealed aggregates and sheets of large epithelioid and spindle cells. The cells had abundant eosinophilic granular cytoplasm. Immunohistochemical analysis was positive for CD68, NKI/C3, and synaptophysin; weakly positive for NSE; and negative for S-100, SOX10, HMB45, Melan A, cytokeratin, SMA, EMA, and CD163. The Ki-67 index was less than 1%. A diagnosis of an S-100 negative, cutaneous, benign GCT was determined. (Source: Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia)

Case for diagnosis. Atypical Grover's disease,
Abstract A 55-year-old male presented with an eight-month history of erythematous papules and plaques with demarcated areas of spared skin on his trunk, upper extremities, neck, and face. Grover's disease is a rare, acquired disorder of unknown origin, which is classically characterized by the appearance of erythematous papules on the upper trunk that are usually transient. As in the present case, there are reports of atypical disease, with facial involvement, pityriasis rubra pilaris-like lesions, and a more chronic course. (Source: Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia)

Sporotrichosis refractory to conventional treatment: therapeutic success with potassium iodide,
Abstract Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis caused by dimorphic fungi of the genus Sporothrix. The authors report a case of fixed cutaneous sporotrichosis with therapeutic failure after 18 months of itraconazole and terbinafine associated with cryosurgery. The patient was cured after the introduction of saturated potassium iodide solution. Sporothrix brasiliensis was the identified species, presenting a susceptibility profile to itraconazole and terbinafine. This fact suggests that therapeutic failure is probably related to the host-fungus interaction rather than drug resistance. It is possible that the immunomodulat...

Gummatous cutaneous tuberculosis associated with the use of infliximab for Crohn's disease,
Abstract As the treatment of infectious and parasitic diseases improved, the prevalence of these conditions declined. However, with the expansion of the use of immunobiologicals, opportunistic infections have emerged, especially under atypical presentations. The present study reports the case of a patient treated with infliximab for Crohn's disease, who presented diarrhea, weight loss, abdominal pain, fever, and subcutaneous erythematous nodules that evolved with spontaneous fluctuation and ulceration. With the finding of alcohol-resistant bacilli and Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA in a cutaneous fragment, through polymera...

Adverse effects of polychemotherapy for leprosy in 13 years of follow-up at a university hospital,
Abstract Leprosy is one of the neglected diseases in the world and Brazil is the second country with more cases. A retrospective study was conducted based on the medical records of 196 leprosy patients diagnosed during the course of 13 years at a university hospital. The aim was to describe the adverse effects of polychemotherapy, as well the most prevalent and most vulnerable populations. In the study, dapsone was the most implicated drug, especially in women, and the risk increased with age. The authors conclude that with this patient profile, greater vigilance should be taken regarding possible adverse effects, especial...

Impact of environmental changes on Dermatology,
Abstract Urbanization, pollution and the modification of natural landscapes are characteristics of modern society, where the change in human relations with the environment and the impact on biodiversity are environmental determinants that affect the health-disease relationship. The skin is an organ that has a strong interface with the environment and, therefore, the prevalence patterns of dermatoses may reflect these environmental changes. In this article, aspects related to deforestation, fires, urbanization, large-scale agriculture, extensive livestock farming, pollution and climatic changes are discussed regarding their...
