Tegafur is a fluoropyrimidine structurally similar to 5-fluorouracil, used in the treatment of advanced gastrointestinal neoplasms. Mucocutaneous side reactions induced by this agent are rare and include photosensitivity of lichenoid and eczematous types, acral erythema, hyperpigmentation and palmoplantar keratoderma. However, to our knowledge, there has been no report of concurrent development of eruptions of two types in a patient. We describe a female patient with breast cancer, presented with combined features of acral erythema and hyperpigmentation due to oral tegafur.

Terbinafine is now widely used for the treatment of dermatophytic infections of the skin and nails. Cutaneous side effects of terbinafine are rare and mild. They includes erythema, pruritus, urticaria, desqumation, and macular exanthem. In addition, fixed drug eruption, erythema multiforme, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and erythema annulare centrifugum-like psoriatic drug eruption were recently described in the literatures. Herein, we reported a case of acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis induced by terbinafine.

Acrokeratoelastoidosis of Costa is a rare palmoplantar keratoderma with autosomal dominant inheritance. It is clinically charaeterized by small, firm, yellowish, shiny, translucent papules occumng over the dorsal hands, the knuckles, and the lateral margine of the palms and soles. Histologically, the characteristic features are hyperkeratosis, aeanthosis, and most strikingly, fragmentation of coarse elastic fibers within the dermis. The lesions usually begin in early childhood and progress slowly. We herein report two familial cases of acrokeratoelastoidosis of Costa showing typical clinic1 and histopathological features.

Linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LABD) is an autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease characterized on direct immunofluorescence of perilesional skin by the linear deposition of IgA at the basement membrane zone. The pathogenesis of LABD is not known, but rar ely some cases of LABD have been reported in association with drug exposure. We report a case of drug-induced LABD showing linear deposits of IgA and IgG at the basement membrane zone on direct immunofluorescence of perilesional skin as well as typical clinical and histologic characteristics, although the causative agent could not be specified.

Traumatic fat necrosis is a localized reaction of panniculus resulting from blunt trauma occurring predominantly on large pendulous breasts in elderly females and on the face in children. The facial lesions in children need no treatment and therapeutic excision is not indicated because a reasonable cosmetic result comes from spontaneous healing in a year or more. The clinicians unfamiliar with this problem may have confusion in diagnosis and management. Herein we report a case of a three-year-old girl who presented with a 3 cm sized erythematous and bullous plaque on her right cheek. The diagnosis of traumatic fat necrosis was made following clinical and pathological findings.
