We present a case of febrile ulceronecrotic Mucha-Habermann disease who presented with widespread erythematous crusted papules, which rapidly progressed to ulceronecrotic lesions accompanied by fever. The serologies showed high titers of cytomegalovirus IgG (>1:3,200) and IgM (1:800). The histopathological study showed epidermal necrosis. The treatment was begun with systemic steroids and roxithromycin to which the patient did not respond. After switching the treatment to methotrexate, the patient was further complicated by getting hepatitis. Low dose cyclosporine resolved the situation within 2 weeks. In patients for whom methotrexate is contra-indicated or ineffective, cyclosporine can suppress T-lymphocyte hyperresponsiveness and resolve this disease.

Abstract A gastric duplication cyst (GDC) is an uncommon gastrointestinal (GI) tract anomaly in adults. Nonspecific symptoms make it difficult to diagnose, while radiological examination might be helpful. However, the final diagnosis is made after eradication and histopathological study. Herein we report a case of an asymptomatic, incidentally diagnosed gastric duplication cyst discovered during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in a 55-year-old female.
