Nongenital HSV 1 presents outside the mucus membrane. Our patient had unusual presentation that caused diagnostic dilemma. 30-year-old native Nigerian female coming with fiancée to the United States presented to our service one day after arrival through ER with a lesion on her right ankle. She was diagnosed with cellulitis, started on antibiotics, and admitted to hospital. She had fever of 39.1°C. Head and neck exam showed multiple sized lesions over tongue and palate and inner aspect of lower lip. Abdomen and genital exam was normal. Skin exam showed lesions over the face and lesions over the lateral aspect of the right leg. There was ulcerated lesion over the right lateral malleolus with surrounding erythema and edema. Her tests showed elevated ESR of 98; HIV test was negative; CT scan of the ankle showed no abscess or osteomyelitis. TB quantiferon was indeterminate; AFB stain and culture were negative; HSV IgM was elevated at 1 : 16; RPR was negative; ANA was negative; malaria screen was negative, and blood cultures were negative for bacteria, fungus, and virus. Debrided wound had no growth of bacteria or fungus or virus. This case illustrates the unusual presentation of the HSV1 outside the mucus membrane and how it can be confused with other conditions that required extensive tests. Therapeutic trail with antiviral medications resolved lesions over the leg and face.

<p class="abstract">Partial hemifacial hyperplasia is a rare congenital malformation characterized by prominent unilateral overdevelopment of some of the hard and soft tissues of the face. This uncommon diagnosis should be considered while examining facial asymmetry. We report a case of slowly enlarging right facial swelling which turned out to be enlarged zygomtic arch. Complete evaluation led us to believe continued condylar hyperactivity as the underlying reason for worsening deformity. We offer an explanation for the same. Minimal surgical intervention led to significant aesthetic improvement which was patients main concern.</p>

Molluscum contagiosum is a viral infection of the skin. It may occur anywhere on the skin surface but is most common in skinfolds, on the face, and in the genital region. Atypical presentations are usually seen in conditions with altered immunity, but they may occur in immunocompetent patients as well. We present a case of an unusual presentation of molluscum contagiosum lesions (multiple normal and one giant) on the plantar area of the foot in an adult.

Erythema Elevatum Diutinum

Erythema elevatum diutinum (EED) is a form of chronic leukocytoclastic vasculitis, which is known to occur in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients. Mostly, in the setting of HIV, it presents as plaques, nodules and occasionally as vesicles. We present a case of EED manifesting as annular plaques in an HIV-positive man, which was predominantly acral in distribution, involving the face also. After starting on dapsone, it disappeared completely in three days.
