INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) is the most common form of cutaneous lymphangioma. However, scrotal LC is rare. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a 37-year-old patient with a complaint of a slow growing painless scrotal grouped lesions present for the past ten years diagnosed as LC. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: The disorder is clinically identified by translucent or hazy vesicles of different sizes which are grouped like frog spawn or, less commonly, as diffuse swelling to a particular area. The definitive diagnosis is usually made by biopsy. LC tends to be asymptomatic. However, it can be complicated. The treatment involves medical and surgical procedures. CONCLUSION: Scrotal LC is rare and tends to mimic certain infectious diseases. The clinicians should be aware of LC in adult males without a prior disease to avoid missing the diagnosis and to prevent inappropriate treatment.
RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Condyloma are a common and easily diagnosticated condition that could affect the area around and inside the anus. But a nodular perianal lesion is not always a simple condyloma. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a 61-year-old patient with nodular perianal lesions mimicking condyloma that has revealed an amylosis and a multiple myeloma. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: The cutaneous manifestations of amyloidosis are diverse. Perianal nodular lesions were indicative of cutaneous amyloidosis in our patient. It is imperative to screen systemic involvement for amyloidosis. CONCLUSION: Our case report highlights the importance of minitious physical examination because some simple lesions can hide dangerous affections.
RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: and importance: The COVID-19 is a global pandemic that is now responsible for more than 3 million deaths around the world. Its cutaneous manifestations in patients are being increasingly reported. This case brings additional data implementing the knowledge on the dermatological signs during COVID-19. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a new pattern with erythema multiforme (EM) lesions in a healthy patient with COVID-19 infection and no other medical background. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: We are facing challenging times in Dermatology. New information and cutaneous manifestations possibly related to COVID-19 are emerging every day. There are only a few case reports describing EM in patients with COVID-19. CONCLUSION: We suggest that this EM might be another pattern of exanthem associated with COVID-19 infection. Further studies are needed to evaluate whether these lesions are associated with the virus, the drug intake or any other conditions.
