Abstract
BACKGROUND Cutaneous leishmaniasis is endemic in Morocco. Mucosal involvement is rare. We report a case in Morocco of cutaneous leishmaniasis of the vermilion border of the upper lip extending to the oral mucosa due to Leishmania tropica. PATIENTS AND METHODS A 15-year-old girl was seen with 2 ulcerated lesions, present for 4 months, situated on the left cheek and vermilion border and extending to the oral mucosa. The diagnosis of leishmaniasis was confirmed by direct examination revealing high numbers of Leishmania amastigotes. Culture of the offending organism in NNN medium and isoenzymatic characterization resulted in identification of L. tropica. Treatment with meglumine antimoniate (Glucantime) was ineffective. The outcome was good after treatment with fluconazole. CONCLUSION In Morocco, cutaneous leishmaniasis with mucosal involvement is rare, and usually develops as a complication of cutaneous leishmaniasis via direct extension.

Abstract
Giant condyloma acuminatum is rare in infants. We report a case of giant perianal condyloma in a 10-month-old infant without sexual abuse. The patient was treated by surgical excision associated with electrocoagulation with no recurrence after 2 years. While both sexual and nonsexual transmissions are possible in patients with condyloma acuminatum, sexual abuse must always be considered in children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cutaneous nodular amyloidosis is rare, and association with Sjögren's syndrome has been reported. We discuss the possible link between these two diseases based on a case we saw. PATIENTS AND METHODS A 78-year-old woman with Sjögren's syndrome ongoing for 17 years presented for evaluation of a waxy infiltrated lesion on her left leg that had appeared 6 months earlier. Histopathological examination revealed a deposit of homogenous eosinophilic material throughout the dermis consistent with amyloidosis. Immunohistochemical study showed these deposits to be AL immunoglobin light chains. DISCUSSION The association of cutaneous nodular amyloidosis and Sjögren's syndrome appears to be a distinct disease entity reflecting the polymorphic clinical spectrum of lymphoproliferative diseases related to Sjögren's syndrome.
