3.A Case of Granuloma Gluteale Infantum.
Annals of Dermatology 1998;10(4):251-255
Granuloma gluteale infantum is a granulomatous lesion in the diaper area of infants. Athough usually seen in infants, it has been described in incontinent elderly patients. The causes of granuloma gluteale infantum are not clear, although child care equipment(ditergents1, diapers2, and starch3), corticosteroids2,4,5,6, candidial infection3 urine and feces7 have been postulated for its etiology. We report a case of granuloma gluteale infantum in a 5-month-old boy. He was healthy except for an asymtomatic 1.5×1.5cm sized, round, Rat-topped brownish and firm nodule on the perianal area, and two, 1×3cm and 1×6cm sized brownish plaques on the intertriginous area of the neck. The lesions were resistant to the treatment of systemic antibiotics. These nodules completely resolved in the three months after we tried to keep the diaper area clean without using any corticosteroids or other ointments and after changing from plastic diapers to cotton o A histological examination of the nodule on the perianal area showed mild hyperkeratosis, spongiosis, and focal infiltration of neutrophils in the epidermis. In the dermis, an inflammatory infiltrate composed of many lymphocytes, eosinophils, plasma cells, and histiocytes was

We report a case of lupus vulgaris following BCG vaccination in a 12-year-old male. The patient was vaccinated against tuberculosis on right shoulder 6 months ago. The erythemstous papular eruptions began to develop on the BCG vaccinated site 2 weeks after vaccination. The eruptions progressed to be pruritic, erythematous plaque which was flat, crescent shaped, and centrally covered by adherent scales for 6 months. Histopathological findings revealed tubercles and tuberculoid structures composed of epitheloid cells and Langhans giant, cells in the dermis. Caseation necrosis within the tubercles was slight or absent. In addition, there was an infiltrate of mononuclear cells around the tubercles. The skin lesions cleared after 6 months of treatment with oral isoniazid 300mg daily.

We report herein a case of bowenoid papulosis, which developed on the groin, the shaft of the penis and left parietal area, of scalp in a 31-year-old male. Clinical features present as brown to brown-black papules and verrucous plaques ranging from 2 cm to 12 cm in diameter. Electron microscopic examination of the specimen obtained from our patient fail to reveal viral particles.
