Hand, food, and mouth disease (HFMD) is a highly contagious disease caused by enteroviruses affecting young children under 5 years. Among enteroviruses (EVs), the main pathogens of HFMD are coxsackievirus A16 (CV-A16) and EV-A71 (EV-71).1 The clinical features include a prodromal phase which has low-grade fever, malaise and sore throat. This initial phase is usually followed by enanthem and erythematous papular skin lesions, predominantly affecting palms and soles. The dorsal surface of hands, feet, and perioral skin are rarely affected. Atypical HFMD presents as a widely distributed rash with varying morphology that makes clinical diagnosis and treatment challenging.2 Our objective is to present atypical cutaneous manifestations of HFMD caused by CA6.

Background: Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) is a growing pandemic around the globe that was initially discovered in Wuhan in December 2019. Despite the relatively high incidence of cutaneous manifestations in COVID-19, their role in early recognition and disease progression has not been fully investigated. Aim of this study: To report the possible incidence of the cutaneous lesion in COVID 19 patients and to describe various cutaneous manifestations and their correlation with other clinical features in Covid-19 positive patients to facilitate diagnosis and prognostications toward this virus. Methods: This research was conducted as a cross-sectional study. Skin lesions photography and their analysis were collected by dermatologists from 18 cities in Iraq between September 2020 to January 2021. The data were processed using statistical package SPSS version 23. Results: A total of 3117 confirmed COVID-19 cases were included in this study. Around 268 patients developed skin lesions with age ranged between 8 to 84 years. Of these skin lesions, 46.2% developed during the illness with minority erupting during the prodromal phase, whilst 38.8% appeared after hospitalization. The most common skin lesion was in the form of urticarial 36.74% followed by herpetic lesions 28.4%, maculopapular rash 11.74% and the remainder being candidiasis, oral thrush, chilblains, and other skin conditions. The most affected area was the torso (46%) followed by limbs, face, fingers, and toes. Conclusion: This study demonstrated the high incidence rate of dermatological lesions in different phases of COVID-19 with urticarial rash being the most frequent clinical pattern.

Abstract: Viral skin infection can occur in all ages, especially in children. These viruses can cause skin lesions due to the viral replication in the epidermis or as a secondary effect of viral replication in other part of the body. This study was aimed to obtain the profile of viral skin infections in Pediatric Dermatology Division of Dermatovenereology Clinic, Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado from 2013 to 2015. This was a retrospective study using medical records of new pediatric patients with viral skin diseases, aged 0-14 years from 2013 to 2015. The results showed that there were 113 pediatric patients (12.71%) with viral skin infections. The majority of cases were 5-14 years old (73.45%), followed by 1-4 years old (25.66%) and 0-1 years old (0.88%); females (52,21%) were more commonly found. The viral skin diseases in this study were moluscum kontagiosum (47.79%), verucca vulgaris (29.20%), varicella (8.85%), herpes zoster (7.97%), and hand foot mouth disease (6.19%). Conclusion: Skin viral diseases in children were found in 12.71% of new patients, most common in females and aged 5-14 years. Moluscum contagiosum was the most common skin viral disease in all ages.Kata kunci: penyakit kulit, infeksi virus, anakAbstrak: Penyakit infeksi kulit karena virus dapat terjadi pada semua usia, tetapi lebih banyak pada anak-anak.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a malignant, low-grade, monoclonal disorder characterized by the accumulation of lymphocytes with variable clinical features. Cutaneous manifestations or leukemia cutis are non-specific, uncommon presentations of CLL and can present in many different ways. In this case report, we discuss a 76-year-old male who presented with skin lesions of the lower limbs and severe itching. Due to the lack of response to the treatment with topical corticosteroids, initial tests were carried out. Complete blood count results indicated lymphocytosis. Eventually Ultimately, the skin lesions led to the diagnosis of CLL. The patient was treated with bendamustine-rituximab (BR). After receiving the treatment, all cutaneous manifestations and generalized itching disappeared. This case highlights the importance of comparing similar cases of CLL presented with dermatological conditions in order to to understand proper management and practice.

Introduction: Hand-foot-mouth-disease (HFMD) is an emerging infectious disease caused by enterovirus. Based on the surveillance data of HFMD and climatic parameters, this study aims to describe the distribution of HFMD in Dak Lak in 2012-2013 and explore the influence of climatic factors on HFMD cases. Methodology: Case series and ecologic studies were used. HFMD case was defined based on MOH’s guidelines. Poisson regression was used to examine the association between the incidence of HFMD and climatic factors. Results: There were 6913 cases of HFMD in Dak Lak in 2012-2013. Mean age (SD) was 24 (17) months. The incidence of HFMD (per 100,000) was 224 in male, 165 in female, 227 in Kinh people, 119 in ethnic minority people. HFMD occurred in all districts and scattered throughout the year, but the highest incidence was in September, October and November (accounting for 43.3%). The climatic variables were related to HFMD cases. Each 1°C rising in temperature corresponded to an increased of 6.3% (RR=1.063, 95%CI=1.037-1.089) in the monthly number of HFMD cases. Similarly, an increase of each 1% in relative humidity, 50mm in rainfall or 5 hour of sunlight corresponded to an increase of 9,8% (RR=1.098, 95% CI=1.087-1.110); 1.7% (RR=1.017, 95% CI=1.005-1.029); 3.4% (RR=1.034, 95% CI=1.029-1.040) in the monthly number of HFMD cases respectively. Conclusions: HFMD occurred all the year round, peaked from September through November. The disease occurred mainly in children under 5 years of age (96%), more common in boys than in girls (ratio 1.4), in Kinh than ethnic minority people (ratio 1.9). There were HFMD cases in all districts of the province. Climatic factors (temperature, humidity, precipitation, sunshine hours) had a significant influence on occurrence and transmission of HFMD.

During the follow-up of a woman treated by radiotherapy for an in situ carcinoma of her left breast, radio-induced skin lesions were diagnosed. They appeared not to be simple radiodermatitis but radio-induced Sweet syndrome. Discussions were led on the benefit of completing the last session of radiotherapy for such a low-grade malignancy while considering the risk of complication from radio-induced disease. General and local corticotherapy rapidly eradicated the fever and asthenia, while the skin lesions disappeared gradually. Moreover, biological improvement was noticed. The presented features of Sweet syndrome are almost similar in their initial phase to the radiodermatitis that is seen in common medical conditions.
