Manoj K Singh, KA Seetharam, JS Pasricha
July-August 1988, 54(4):196-198
PMID
:28134211
A retrospective review of the skin biopsies of 93 patients having various vesiculo-bullous diseases seen between 1983 and 1985 revealed eosinophilic spongiosis (ES) in 31 cases. of these, 19 (36.5%) out of 52 patients having pemphigus vulgaris 2(20%) of 10 patiens having pemphigus foliaceous, one patient having pemphigus vegetans, 3 (15%) of 20 patients with bullous pemphigoid, and 3 (50%) of 6 patients with dermatitis herpetiformis had ES. The severity of eosinophilic spongiosis graded on an arbitrary scale, was 3 + in 2 cases of pemphigus vulgaris, 2 + in 7 cases of pemphigus vulgaris, 1 case of pemphigus vegetans and 2 cases of dermatitis herpetiformis, while in the remaining it was only 1 +. Only 3 patients of pemphigus vulgaris showed distinctive atypical clinical features in the form of erythema multiforme like lesions in 2 cases and erythema annulare centrifugum like lesions in 1 case. In the remaining cases the clinical presentation was not different from those who did not have ES.

A middle aged man was hospitalised in the state of acute renal failure with erythema nodosum lepromum. He was having progressive anaemia, oliguria, azotemia and impaired renal function. The outcome was fatal.

LS Vohra, SK Basu, VD Tiwari
July-August 1988, 54(4):213-215
PMID
:28134218
Adenoid cystic carcinoma commonly arises from the major and minor salivary glands. Primary cutaneous adenoid cystic carcinoma is extremely rare. The tumour was hard, non-tender, and fixed to the underlying stucture with visible congested veins. Histopathologically, large cell masses with adenoid or cribriform pattern, forming cystic spaces at places were seen. Solid epithelial nests and a few ductal structures were also seen. Plumonary metastases were another unusual feature in our patient perhaps not reported before.
