ORF disease: a case report with images.

This article presents the case of a 25-year-old Moroccan male who contracted Orf disease (Ecthyma contagiosum), a common zoonotic viral infection in sheep and goats. The disease, caused by a parapoxvirus, can be transmitted to humans through contact with infected animals. The patient developed painful lesions on his fingers after interacting with a sheep during the Feast of Sacrifice. Diagnosis was clinically established considering exposure history and lesion characteristics. Treatment involved local antiseptics and 2% fusidic acid cream. The lesions resolved spontaneously over a few weeks without functional impairment.

Misdiagnosis of cutaneous epithelioid angiosarcoma as diabetic foot ulcer: a case study.

BACKGROUND: AS is a malignant tumor that originates from vascular endothelial cells and is known for a high rate of local recurrence and metastasis. CASE REPORT: A 48-year-old male presented with cutaneous epithelioid AS. Cutaneous AS of the foot is quite rare, especially in the absence of predisposing factors, and in this patient it was previously misdiagnosed as a DFU. CONCLUSION: Physicians should be aware of this rare presentation of cutaneous AS. The authors of the current report advise regular clinical reassessment of chronic ulcers and biopsies of nonhealing wounds, even when adequate wound treatment has been administered, with the goal of identifying ulcerated skin malignancies and preventing delay in providing appropriate treatment.

Erythema multiforme eruption due to SARS-COV 2: Case report.

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.
