Mycosis fungoides was documented in a patient two years after pemphigus foliaceus had been diagnosed and treated with corticosteroids. Eight years later, the patient was found to have stage IV lymphomatous disease with generalized erythroderma and palpable, histologically positive lymph nodes. Hematoxylin-eosin staining of a specimen of erythroderma revealed mycosis fungoides, while direct immunofluorescence of this tissue revealed intercellular IgG deposits diagnostic of pemphigus foliaceus

Multiple pyogenic granuloma-like lesions occurring at punch graft sites are an unusual complication of hair transplantation heretofore unreported. While the etiology and pathogenesis of such lesions remain elusive, physicians performing hair transplantations should be aware of this potential sequela

Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (AHE) is classically characterized by benign vascular tumors on the head and neck of young adults. An unusual case of widespread cutaneous AHE that clinically mimicked prurigo nodularis is presented and illustrated. The relationship of AHE to the recently described entity, histiocytoid hemangioma, is discussed
