ABSTRACT
Henoch-Scholein Purpura(HSP) is a syndrome characterized by nonthrombocytopenic purpura accompanied by a arthralgia, gastrointestinal symptom, or renal involvement. This report describes a 13-year-old boy with hemorrhaic bullous HSP followed by cellulitis as a complication. This unusual cutaneous manifestation of HSP may be a source of diagnostic confusion, but it does not appear to have prognostic implication.

Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinonma of the skin(LELCS) is a rare tumor with a microscopic resemblance to lymphoepitheliomatous tumors of the nasopharynx. Less than 100 examples of LELCS are having been reported since its initial description in 1988. Elderly patient are preferentially affected, and the skin of the head and neck is the principal location for this neoplasm. We report a 70 year-old male patient who had brownish colored, moderately firm nodule on the left malar area of the face. Histopathologically, the nodule showed features of LELCS and he was treated with excision and local flap coverage.
