Progesterone hypersensitivity is mediated by type I, III, and IV hypersensitivity reactions to endogenous or exogenous progesterone, involving autoimmune mechanisms in females of reproductive age. It presents with a range of dermatologic manifestations, most commonly urticaria, angioedema, eczema, and maculopapular rashes. Systemic and severe symptoms, such as generalized erythema multiforme or lesions resembling severe cutaneous adverse reactions, have rarely been reported. We describe a case of a 42-year-old woman who developed drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) following exogenous progesterone therapy administered for assisted reproduction. She received high-dose subcutaneous progesterone and vaginal tablets. Despite this being her first procedure, she achieved pregnancy. However, at 8 weeks of gestation and during the third month of progesterone treatment, she developed generalized erythema multiforme, pruritus, and high-grade fever. Her laboratory findings showed increased blood eosinophil counts and inflammatory markers. After oral corticosteroid (OCS) treatment for several weeks, her skin lesions were partially improved. However, after tapering of OCS, her skin lesions were aggravated with increased blood eosinophil counts. Despite daily OCS (prednisolone, 12.5–60 mg/day) treatment after childbirth, her skin symptoms and eosinophilia persisted. Reslizumab treatment was also attempted, but only the eosinophilia resolved. These clinical findings were much improved after Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor (upadacitinib 15 mg/day) treatment; consequently, OCS was stopped. Here, we report a case of relapsing DRESS triggered by exogenous progesterone, which has been controlled by JAK inhibitor treatment.

Cat-pork syndrome is an uncommon food allergy induced by red meat (pork/beef) that cross-reacts with cat/dog allergens, which is mediated by immunoglobulin E (IgE) response to the cat/dog albumin component. We report 2 cases of cat-pork syndrome occurred in adult pet breeders. They had suffered from allergic rhinitis/atopic dermatitis sensitive to cat/dog dander as well as house dust mites for several years, during which an immediate type of food allergy due to red meats developed whenever taking pork or beef. ImmunoCAP results showed the increased levels of serum-specific IgE to pork and beef allergens (f26, f27) as well as cat and dog dander (e1, e5); moreover, increased level of serum-specific IgE to the cat albumin component (e224) was noted. In conclusion, cat-food allergy can be found in allergic patients among whom are sensitive to cats and dogs and develop food allergy due to red meat.

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common form of hand mononeuropathy that is typi-cally caused by median nerve compression. Although it is often idiopathic, CTS can also result from various conditions, including space-occupying lesions. Tumoral calcinosis, a rare condition characterized by periarticular deposition of calcified masses, is an un-common cause of secondary CTS. We present a case of a 78-year-old woman with idio-pathic tumoral calcinosis that caused secondary CTS. Despite conservative treatments, her symptoms persisted, and diagnostic imaging, including radiographs, computed to-mography, and magnetic resonance imaging, revealed a calcified mass in the carpal tun-nel. A surgical intervention involving carpal tunnel release and excisional biopsy con-firmed the diagnosis of tumoral calcinosis. Postoperatively, the patient showed complete resolution of symptoms, with no recurrence on follow-up radiographs. This case high-lights the importance of considering space-occupying lesions, such as tumoral calcinosis, as a rare but treatable cause of secondary CTS.
