Cutaneous reactions to imatinib are common and occur in 9.5% to 69% of patients depending on the series reported. Maculopapular eruptions, erythematous eruptions, edema, and periorbital edema are the most common adverse events observed. Imatinib can also induce severe skin eruptions and generalized

Demodex folliculorum and Demodex brevis are obligate parasites of the human pilosebaceous unit. They are the most common permanent ectoparasites in adults, but their incidence on children's skin is rare. Only few cases of demodicidosis have been reported in children aged below 5 years and most of
Sézary syndrome accounts for 5% of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas, with mean age of onset of 60 years. Erythroderma associated with palmoplantar keratoderma and lymphadenopathy is the usual clinical presentation, but the disease has potentially confusing polymorphic clinical We report two patients with ecchymotic patches that did not suggest the diagnosis of Kaposi's sarcoma. The principal complaint of one patient was facial and periorbital edema with bilateral periorbital ecchymosis. On his trunk were patches resembling pityriasis rosea-like Kaposi's sarcoma. Both
