An 81-year-old woman with a history of renal cell carcinoma and years of slowly, progressively enlarging pulmonary nodules of uncertain etiology presented with several weeks of painful lower extremity nodules. A biopsy revealed changes consistent with nodular vasculitis. A purified protein
Four patients with erythema induratum (EI) have been diagnosed at the Dermatology Department within the past two years. All four patients had a history of recurrent painful nodules on their calves for at least three years before diagnosis. Three of the patients, all with positive Mantoux reaction to
Among nontuberculosis mycobacteria (NTM), rapidly growing mycobacteria (RGM) are the most common causative agents of soft tissue infection. Mycobacterium massiliense, a new species of NTM, was isolated in 2004. Due to the lower virulence of RGM, M. massiliense infection is rare in the general
Tuberculids are chronic nodular skin eruptions believed to be a systemic reaction to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. We report on a 6-year-old boy with tender subcutaneous lesions on his legs. A tuberculin skin test resulted in 2.5 cm of induration and an interferon-gamma releasing assay was also
BACKGROUND
Erythema induratum of Bazin (EIB) is considered to be a tuberculid reaction and consists of recurrent painful nodules. The differential diagnosis includes diseases like nodular vasculitis, perniosis, polyarteritis nodosa and erythema nodosum.
METHODS
We report the case of a woman with EIB
We herein report a patient with erythema induratum/nodular vasculitis (EI/NV) associated with Crohn's disease (CD), which is considered to be a rare type of metastatic CD. A 54-year-old woman, who had a history of CD, presented with erythematous nodules on her legs. The histopathological features of
We describe a patient in whom two tuberculids, lichen scrofulosorum, and erythema induratum occurred simultaneously. The clinical and histopathologic features were characteristic and a Mantoux test showed a positive reaction. There was no extracutaneous focus of tuberculosis. Polymerase chain
We report a case of erythema induratum recently encountered in our centre. A 14-year-old male presented with history of fever, weight loss and multiple, painful, hyperpigmented patches over both legs and dorsum of foot, since six months. FNAC showed evidence of granulomatous inflammation. Biopsy of
BACKGROUND
Erythema induratum, a chronic recurrent lobular panniculitis with vasculitis, is strongly associated with Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. The recommended drugs include isoniazid, rifampicin, and pyrazinamide, which are typically administered in combination (orally or intravenously).
BACKGROUND
Tuberculosis is the most common mycobacterial disease in the world. The cutaneous form is rare in low endemic countries. The occurrence of several cutaneous tuberculosis cases in our dermatology department during 2011-2012 led us to investigate whether there was a resurgence of cutaneous
BACKGROUND
Erythema induratum of Bazin (BEI), is included in the group of cutaneous granulomatous lobulillar panniculitis. The aethiopathogenic association between EI and tuberculosis can not rely on the clinicohistological features of these panniculitis and M. tuberculosis has never been isolated
A patient is described in whom erythema induratum and papulonecrotic tuberculide occurred simultaneously. Clinical and histological appearances were characteristic as was the response to antituberculous chemotherapy.
Erythema induratum of Bazin (EIB) is a chronic nodular eruption occurring on the lower legs of young and middleaged women which is considered the most common tuberculid. A 54-year-old woman, in treatment with chemotherapy for breast cancer, presented subcutaneous erythematous plaques and nodules on
A 10-year-old Kenyan girl presented with a 9-month history of a persistent, painful eruption of multiple, tender, non-ulcerated, pigmented nodules involving the calves, shins and soles of the feet. She had recurring fevers particularly at night, lethargy, weight loss and a persistent non-productive
We report three cases of patients with erythema induratum of Bazin who showed extreme tuberculin hypersensitivity reactions and a good therapeutic response to isoniazid. In the first patient satellite lesions with epithelioid granuloma formation developed 3 weeks after injection of purified protein
