Abstract
The clinical and histopathological features of herpes zoster (HZ) are usually straightforward. Atypical histological presentations, in the absence of the classical viral cytopathic changes, are well documented and can make the diagnosis of HZ extremely difficult. Herein, we review the existing literature on atypical cutaneous histological manifestations of the disease, with emphasis on the subtle clues, use of immunohistochemistry, and potential pitfalls.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cowden disease is a multisystemic cancer predisposition disorder, inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. Cutaneous and visceral lesions are either malignant tumours or are believed to represent hamartomatous growths. Mucocutaneous lesions are present on almost 100% of affected individuals. Nonetheless, some authors consider that the mucocutaneous manifestations of Cowden disease are, in reality, viral warts at distinct steps of evolution. There are only a few studies regarding the oral manifestations of Cowden disease. OBJECTIVES To study the oral manifestations of Cowden disease in nine patients clinically and histopathologically. METHODS The oral mucosal aspects of nine patients with clinical diagnosis of Cowden disease were photographed, and biopsies were taken from typical lesions. RESULTS All biopsied lesions depicted histopathological aspects suggestive of viral warts at distinct steps of development: incipient, well established and in regression. CONCLUSION Our findings seem to reinforce the poorly understood hypothesis that the mucocutaneous manifestations of Cowden disease are in reality viral warts. Additional studies are needed to explain why a syndrome caused by the mutation of a tumour suppression gene may cause propensity to warts.

Study of the Etiological Causes of Toe Web Space Lesions in Cairo, Egypt. Dermatol Res Pract 2015; 2015:701489.

Abstract
Background. The etiology of foot intertrigo is varied. Several pathogens and skin conditions might play a role in toe web space lesions. Objective. To identify the possible etiological causes of toe web space lesions. Methods. 100 Egyptian patients were enrolled in this study (72 females and 28 males). Their ages ranged from 18 to 79 years. For every patient, detailed history taking, general and skin examinations, and investigations including Wood's light examination, skin scraping for potassium hydroxide test, skin swabs for bacterial isolation, and skin biopsy all were done. Results. Among the 100 patients, positive Wood's light fluorescence was observed in 24 and positive bacterial growth was observed in 85. With skin biopsy, 52 patients showed features characteristic for eczema, 25 showed features characteristic for fungus, 19 showed features characteristic for callosity, and 3 showed features characteristic for wart while in only 1 patient the features were characteristic for lichen planus. Conclusion. Toe web space lesions are caused by different etiological factors. The most common was interdigital eczema (52%) followed by fungal infection (25%). We suggest that patients who do not respond to antifungals should be reexamined for another primary or secondary dermatologic condition that may resemble interdigital fungal infection.

Abstract
Focal epithelial hyperplasia (FEH) or Heck's disease is a rare, benign and asymptomatic mucosal proliferation associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, mainly with genotypes 13 and 32. We report a florid case of FEH in an 11-year-old Haitian girl with systemic lupus erythematosus receiving immunosuppressive therapy. Cryotherapy was previously performed on numerous occasions with no results. We decided to prescribe a non-invasive and more comfortable treatment. A combination of topical retinoid and imiquimod cream was well tolerated and led to an important improvement. The evidence of infection by HPV-16 detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, prompted us to prescribe the quadrivalent HPV vaccine (types 6, 11,16 and 18). Subsequent PCR sequencing with generic primers GP5-GP6 and further BLAST comparative analysis confirmed that genomic viral sequence in our case truly corresponded with HPV-32. This molecular misdiagnosis can be explained by the similarity between genomic sequences of both HPV-16 and -32 genotypes. At the 1-year follow up, we observed total clinical improvement and no recurrences of the disease. Complete healing in this case may correspond to a potential action of topical retinoid, imiquimod and the cross-protection mechanism of the quadrivalent HPV vaccine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our aim was to describe the epidemiologic, clinical, and laboratory characteristics of acute parvovirus B19 infection in adults. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study describes all cases of acute parvovirus B19 infection in patients older than 18 years of age who were treated at Hospital Universitario La Paz in Madrid, Spain, in 2012. RESULTS Forty-nine adults were treated for acute parvovirus B19 infection. Most were young women who were infected in the spring or early summer. In over half the cases skin lesions were key diagnostic signs.We saw the full range of types of rash of purplish exanthems that were fairly generalized; vasculitis was relatively common (in >18%). Mild or moderate abnormalities in blood counts and indicators of liver dysfunction resolved spontaneously in all but 2 immunocompromised patients, who developed chronic anemia. CONCLUSIONS This is the largest case series of acute parvovirus B19 infection published to date. This infection should be suspected on observing signs of purplish skin rashes, no matter the location or pattern of distribution, or vasculitis, especially if accompanied by fever and joint pain in young women in the spring. Measures to avoid infection should be recommended to individuals at risk.

Abstract
Congenital or neonatal Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is an unusual infection, barely reported in the literature. In these patients a mechanism of transmission that is neither via contact or sexual transmission should be considered. We describe five cases of neonatal MC and review the cases already published to discuss the possible aetiopathogenic mechanism.

Abstract
A number of dermatological findings may mimic inflicted injury in forensic investigations and lead to false conclusions about the circumstances, manner, and mechanism of death. At times, organic dermatological phenomena involving the skin, hair, and nails are initially misidentified as trauma, sexual abuse, or burns. History, autopsy, and histopathology aid in correctly diagnosing these dermatological findings. Some of the resulting diagnoses include pruritic, ulcerating, and infectious skin diseases, skin disease localized to the anogenital area, malignancy, medication-induced dermatoses, alopecia, and age-related skin changes. We report several cases where police and/or the coroner initially attributed a finding to trauma, but it was subsequently determined that the finding represented a dermatological disease by the forensic pathologist upon autopsy. In addition, for completeness, we include examples of other dermatological conditions that may mimic trauma. Forensic investigators should maintain a broad differential for abnormal skin, hair, and nail findings when there is an incomplete or incongruent history surrounding a victim's death.
