Résumé
Angiokeratoma corporis diffusum [ACD] is a rare clinical type of angiokeratoma and has been reported, mostly, in association with various life threatening conditions, of which Fabry disease is the most known. Rarely, it has been reported as an isolated finding without any systemic features. A 23-year-old male presented with numerous red papules of various sizes with a history of intermittent bleeding. Histopathology findings were consistent with angiokeratoma and our case was diagnosed as ACD. We herein present a case of cutaneous variant of ACD without any associated systemic associations. Also, the conditions associated with ACD have been briefly discussed.

Alopecia areata [AA] is a chronic inflammatory condition that affects the hair follicles and sometimes, the nails. It is believed that AA is caused by T cell-mediated autoimmune response and increased frequency of other autoimmune diseases in persons suffering from AA supports this hypothesis. A 12-year-old boy presented with extensive alopecia areata with pitting in all nails for 6 years. He had developed lesions of vitiligo and lichen planus on trunk in a segmental manner. While the association of alopecia areata and vitiligo as well as lichen planus is well known, segmental nature of both vitiligo and lichen planus is quite rare
