Dapsone, diamino-diphenyl sulfone, is an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drug which is used worldwide for treating many diseases, such as leprosy, dermatitis herpetiformis, linear IgA bullous dermatosis, chronic bullous dermatosis of childhood, bullous eruption of systemic lupus erythematosus, erythema elevatum diutinum, leukocytoclastic vasculitis, polyarteritis nodosa and other kinds of vasculitis, prurigo nodularis, nodulocystic acne, cutaneous mycetoma, pustular psoriasis, malaria, pneumocystis carinii pneumonia etc. Since it is widely used, the adverse effects of this drug attract the attention of doctors from different specialities. Dapsone can cause several adverse effects, the most serious one is idiosyncratic systemic hypersensitivity syndrome, namely dapsone hypersensitivity syndrome (DHS), which is potentially fatal, characterized by fever, facial edema with infiltrated papules, generalized papulopustular or exanthematous rash which may extend to exfoliative dermatitis, eosinophilia, lymphadenopathy, hematologic involvement and organ involvement such as hepatitis, nephritis, pneumonitis, encephalitis, myocarditis occurring after 3–6 weeks of drug therapy. Here we have described a case of dapsone hypersensitivity syndrome developed after dapsone therapy for prurigo nodularis. The case is being reported to emphasize the need for timely diagnosis and prompt treatment of this rare complication for successful outcomes. Physicians should be aware of this infrequent but potentially fatal severe form of adverse reaction that can mimic other conditions.J Enam Med Col 2018; 8(2): 108-113

Vaccination is one of the cornerstones in the efforts towards ending the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. However, several adverse effects of COVID-19 vaccination have been identified. Pityriasis rosea (PR)-like eruption is a rare cutaneous complication of immunization. To the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports of PR-like eruptions following inoculation with Oxford/AstraZeneca ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (AZD1222) vaccine. Here, we described a case of PR-like eruption that developed 14 days after Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccination in a 52-year-old Thai woman with glioblastoma. Treatment with topical 0.1% triamcinolone acetonide twice per day showed partial response after seven days. Despite this rare complication, our report highlights that the presence of PR-like eruption is not a contraindication for subsequent vaccinations.

We report a case of hemoptysis occurring after subclavian vein puncture for pacemaker implantation. Hemoptysis related to injury of lung parenchyma is a rare complication of subclavian vein access and is usually self limited, but can affect prognosis in critically ill patients. Venogram-guided or even better wire-guided venous puncture allow safe access to the subclavian vein in difficult cases. A review of the pertinent literature is also presented.
