[Association of sebaceous gland hyperplasia, wart, syringoma and irritation fibroma in a kidney transplant patient receiving long term cyclosporin and azathioprine]

Cyclosporin and azathioprine are immunosuppressive drugs, used widely in kidney transplant patients. A significant association between immunosuppressive therapy and multiple warts was described several years ago. There are also some reports of sebaceous gland hyperplasia in kidney transplant patients receiving cyclosporin. We report herein a 57-year-old woman who developed multiple warts on her hands and feet, lower lid syringomas, sebaceous gland hyperplasia of forehead and multiple mucosal irritation fibromas on tongue after kidney transplantation and a long course of treatment with oral cyclosporin, azathioprine and prednisolone since 6 years ago

[Scar due to sulfur mustard gas on thigh with cherry angiomas, decreased hair growth and pigmentary disorder: a case report]

Sulfur mustard or mustard gas has been widely used as a chemical weapon in the first world war and Iraq-Iran war. It causes acute and chronic complications in lungs, eyes and skin. In skin, mustard is toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic via alkylation of cellular proteins in enzymes, cell membranes, cytoplasm and particularly cell nucleus as well as in DNA components of the epidermis, dermis and skin appendages. Herein, we report a 37-year-old man who developed widespread blistering on his right thigh after sulfur mustard exposure in 1988. Now multiple cherry angiomas, decreased hair growth and pigmentary disorder are visible at the site of previous injury
