... IgA pemphigus was described 26 years later by Wallach, Foldes, and Cottenot as "subcorneal pustular dermatosis and monoclonal IgA". IgA pemphigus is distinguished from SWD by a positive DIF (Figure 4) showing intercellular IgA deposition (71,73). Other authors define SWD as a "benign amicrobial pustulosis" that belongs to the spectrum of neutrophilic dermatoses and may be associated with IgA monoclonal gammopathy and other neutrophilic dermatoses (71). ...

... Scalp ulceration was less commonly reported. 5,11,13,44,57,61,64 Trichoscopy of scalp sarcoidosis demonstrated perifollicular and follicular yellow-orange, pale spots with perifollicular scaling, telangiectasias, and dystrophic hairs (Fig. 2). 48 Before the biopsy, a wide differential diagnosis of cicatricial alopecia was suggested, including discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE), necrobiosis lipoidica, lichen planopilaris, scleroderma, frontal fibrosing alopecia, psoriasis, central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, and morphea. ...

... In the iatrogenic form (related to immunosuppressive treatment after transplantation), regardless of the stage of advancement, the first step should be to consider the possibility of modifying this treatment, i.e., reducing the dose or changing the immunosuppressive drug to another one. Significant benefits of switching from cyclosporine to sirolimus (rapamycin), an mTOR inhibitor, have been demonstrated [14][15][16]. In the case of our patient, treatment with Paclitaxel was initiated, resulting in a significant reduction of skin lesions and quite good tolerance of the therapy. ...

... Currently, there are various treatment options available for xanthelasma palpebrarum , including cryotherapy [6], medication peeling treatment, laser therapy [7,8], local drug injection therapy [9][10][11], and surgical excision [12,13]. Each treatment method has its advantages and disadvantages [14]. ...

... Therefore, there appear to be cases of neoplasia fortuitously associated with classical pemphigus, and they have a better prognosis [6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. Joly et al. compared 34 cases of pemphigus associated with neoplasia, and only 22 were classified as cases of PNP (according to the PAMS criteria of classification) [6]. ...

Pemphigus and cancer: A single-center experience over 30 years in Morocco

... Recent studies suggest that SARS-CoV-2 vaccines may potentially trigger or exacerbate AIBDs [7,[9][10][11][12][13][14]. The existing literature describes cases of the new onset or relapse of pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and pemphigus foliaceus (PF) following COVID-19 vaccination; however, the actual number of affected individuals might be higher due to incomplete data collection [3,7,[15][16][17][18]. The pathophysiological mechanisms are likely attributed to the resemblance between the RNA antigen present in these vaccines and the cellular nuclear matter [14,[19][20][21][22][23]. ...
