结节病易误诊,据王洪武等~([1])收集国内18篇关于此病误诊的文献,误诊率高达63.2%,当然有误诊就会有误治,如孙永昌等~([2])报道26例结节病在影像学检查诊断的第一印象中拟诊结核5例,其中就有2例完成规范的抗结核治疗,为此应引起临床对本病诊治的重视。

White piedra is a superficial fungal infection of the hair shaft, caused by Trichosporon beigelii . We report two cases of white piedra presenting as brown palpable nodules along the hair shaft with a fragility of scalp hairs. T. beigelii was demonstrated in hair culture of both the patients and T. ovoides as a species was confirmed on carbohydrate assimilation test. The first patient responded to oral itraconazole and topical ketoconazole, with a decrease in the palpability of nodules and fragility of scalp hairs at the end of two months.

Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) is almost exclusively seen in head-neck region with rare involvement of trunk and extremities. The tumour is commonly seen on nose, eyelids, at the inner canthus of eyes and behind the ears. Adenoid type of BCC is one of the rare histopathological types of BCC which has not found to have any site predilection. We report two cases of BCC occurring at an unusual site i.e., lower back and both of them showed adenoid type of BCC on histopathology. Morphologically they were pigmented and ulcerative type of BCC respectively.

Rowell's syndrome is now identified as a subtype of subacute lupus erythematosus (LE) with erythema multiforme-like skin lesions, positive serum rheumatoid factor, anti-Ro La positivity and speckled pattern of antinuclear antibodies. Here we describe a case of Rowell's syndrome in an 18-year-old female who was found to be ds-DNA negative, who later progressed to develop stage V lupus nephritis (LN) over a course of 4 months. Although extremely rare, most cases of LN are drug induced. Of only seven cases of non-drug induced LN with negative dsDNA, none had cutaneous involvement. Ours was a unique case of progression of Rowells syndrome to ds-DNA negative LN.
