Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a rare but life-threatening disorder. Skin manifestations can be its only manifestation. We present a case of a fifteen-year-old female child, with multiple eruptive xanthomas, xanthomas anarcus, and a deranged lipid profile consistent with FH. The presence of this manifestation especially in the younger age group should draw attention to hypercholesterolemia. A timely diagnosis is fundamental to prevent serious complications and for early treatment.

Since pemphigus blisters are intraepidermal, scarring should induce at most a post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. We describe a very atypical and unusual course of pemphigus vulgaris with extensive keloid formation despite high systemic steroids. This could be promoted by the severe flare of the disease, the delay of scarring, and the superinfection.

Pyoderma gangrenosum is among the exceptional extra-intestinal manifestations of celiac disease. We report a case of a 52-year-old patient who presented with pyoderma gangrenosum that turned out to be the initial presentation of celiac disease.
RESUMO
A 4-year-old boy born from a consanguineous marriage was referred to our department for congenital ichthyosis. He was a collodion baby at birth and progressively developed a generalized erythroderma with fine whitish scales covering his body. Initially, he was diagnosed as having congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma. Physical examination revealed fine white grayish scales with an erythematous background involving the scalp and flexural areas (Figure 1a). His palms and soles depicted hyperlinearity (Figure 1b). His hair, teeth, nails, and mucosa were normal. Abdominal examination revealed hepatomegaly, and the liver was enlarged by 4 cm below the right costal margin. He had a normal motor and mental development, and his neurologic examination was normal. There was no muscular weakness. (SKINmed. 2022;20:305-306).
