Background:H syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder of histiocytic proliferation with clinical spectrum unique cutaneous and systemic manifestations.There no consistent treatment for the disease, all available options are based on case reports.Here, we present chronological progression a H typical manifestations that was misdiagnosed early as meningitis-induced sensorineural hearing loss later non-defined autoimmune connective tissue disease.A new tried, although failed, option...
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a long-term, pruritic, recurrent, systemic, inflammatory skin disorder. In the Middle East region, burden of AD understudied, and there dearth guideline documents for practitioners.An expert panel meeting, encompassing 12 dermatologists from Kingdom Saudi Arabia (KSA), was congregated to develop evidence- experience-based consensus recommendations management, especially in adults KSA. They completed questionnaire with seven clinical statements, defined when...
Background: Lobular capillary hemangioma, also known as pyogenic granuloma (PG), is a relatively common benign rapidly growing friable vascular tumor of the skin and mucus membranes. Although exact pathogenesis PG unknown, many theories discussed potential an angiogenic stimulus imbalance inducers inhibitors triggering hyperplastic neovascular response. The most frequently used modality for treatment surgical treatment. proposed case represents unexpected evolution to possible therapeutic...
Background: We report a case of primary systemic amyloidosis in 78-year-old Caucasian woman presented as nonhealing ulcer on the right thigh for 3 months. Histopathology skin revealed widely thickened walls middermal and subcutaneous vessels from deposition amorphous eosinophilic material that stained positively with Congo red crystal violet. Objective: This represents very unusual presentation amyloidosis, one which cutaneous manifestations provided first signs devastatingly widespread...
BACKGROUND Hyaluronic acid (HA) gel fillers represent most soft tissue augmentation procedures currently used, because they have lower rates of complications compared with other materials. Many patients do not consume an entire syringe filler but may require a retouch or intermittent after some time. The remaining material is commonly stored in specific environment for reuse by the same patient. OBJECTIVE There are insufficient number recommendations concerning safety storing and reusing...

BACKGROUND Excessive hair is undesirable and represents both a social emotional burden, especially among females. Laser removal (LHR) has gained popularity in the past 2 decades. It common practice to instruct patients not pluck or wax their before undergoing LHR; only shaving allowed improve efficacy of LHR. OBJECTIVE To compare percentage reduction preshaved versus prewax epilated axillae after LHR healthy adult Saudi METHODS AND MATERIALS This study quantitative experimental pilot...
Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome (VKHS) is a rare inflammatory autoimmune condition that affects tissues with high melanocyte concentrations such as the skin, inner ears, eyes, and central nervous system. VKHS has previously been reported to be associated various diseases, but we have observed first known co-occurrence of lichen planus (LP). In this report, examine similarities between these two diseases discuss how they relate each other.
We report a case of large pedunculated lipofibroma on left axilla in 36 year old woman, the lesion was excised completely with no recurrence after one follow up. propose new name for this rare entity to be more inclusive all lesions and differentiate it from other called fibrolipoma.
