Unusual cutaneous features of syphilis in patients positive for human immunodeficiency virus

CLINICAL & EXPERIMENTAL DERMATOLOGY, Issue 2 2010

Summary Dermatologists commonly find it difficult to diagnose syphilis, because of its protean clinical features. In cases of co-infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) syphilis may present particularly unusual clinical features, further confounding the diagnosis. We report two cases of syphilis/HIV co-infection in Japanese patients showing uncommon skin features that made the diagnosis of syphilis difficult. These cases underline the need for dermatologists to be more aware of atypical cutaneous features of syphilis in patients positive for HIV. [source]

Unusual case presentations associated with the CD45 C77G polymorphism

CLINICAL & EXPERIMENTAL IMMUNOLOGY, Issue 3 2006
E. Z. Tchilian
Summary CD45, the leucocyte common antigen, is a haematopoietic cell specific tyrosine phosphatase. Human polymorphic CD45 variants are associated with autoimmune and infectious diseases and alter the phenotype and function of lymphocytes, establishing CD45 as an important regulator of immune function. Here we report four patients with diverse diseases with unusual clinical features. All four have the C77G polymorphism of CD45 exon 4, which alters the splicing and CD45RA/CD45R0 phenotype of lymphocytes. We suggest that C77G may be a contributing factor in these unusual cases.
