We report an atypical presentation of a common disease to highlight the importance of making a correct diagnosis of scabies surrepticius in front of any itchy dermatosis especially in elderly patients. The misdiagnosis of this disease results in extensive infestation, especially with the use of corticosteroids.
ABSTRACT
Chemotherapy extravasation is a rare but severe cutaneous complication associated with administration of intravenous chemotherapy. Extravasation causes serious disability and diminishes the quality of life in patients with cancer undergoing antineoplastic therapy. Treatment of chemotherapy extravasation is not standardized. We report a patient with paclitaxel extravasation who was successfully treated with corticosteroids.

We report a new case of chronic recurrent annular neutrophilic dermatosis in a woman. Through our observation, we aim to make the clinician aware of this rare entity, in order to consider it among the diagnostic hypotheses of annular dermatosis, with centrifugal, recurrent, and chronic evolution.
