RESUMO
Erythema Induratum of Bazin is a tuberculid, a condition occurring 'on the legs of female and in young and plump well nourished women. It is characterized by recurrent nodular and ulcerative lesions. Lesions are usually localized to the lower legs especially calf area, but can affect other areas. We are presenting a case of a 54-years-old lady with recurrent crops of nodules on legs. Mantoux test was positive. Histopathology revealed lobular panniculitis, epithelioid cells, lymphocytes and giant cells surrounding foci of caseous necrosis which was suggestive of erythema induratum. She was put on Antituberculous treatment
RESUMO
We report a 22 year patient who developed acute renal failure following the ingestion of a hair-dye with a suicidal intent. He was managed by hemodialysis and other symptomatic measures. His renal biopsy showed acute interstitial nephritis along with granulomas and giant cells. Hair dyes contain a host of chemicals that can cause rhabdomyolysis, laryngeal edema, severe metabolic acidosis and acute renal failure. Intervention at the right time has been shown to improve the outcome
