Abstract
BACKGROUND Behçet's disease (BD) presents with lymphocytic and neutrophilic vasculitis of unknown aetiology. HLA-B*51 ERAP1 and IL12R/IL23R are genetic risk factors. IL-23 regulates IL-17A, which controls recruitment and activation of neutrophils. OBJECTIVES To determine pathological changes in BD skin lesions related to the complex genetic predisposition METHODS: We characterised the expression of IL-17A and IL-23A in various cell types by immunohistological double staining of sections from papulopustular skin lesions (PPL) of acute attacks of BD and lesions of psoriasis vulgaris (PV), another HLA-class I-associated T-cell mediated autoimmune disease in which excessive T-cell derived IL-17A production promotes neutrophil activation. RESULTS We found that in BD lesions, as in psoriasis, actively expanding CD8+ T cells were the predominant source of IL-17A. IL-17A+ CD8+ T (Tc17) cells outnumbered infiltrating IL-17A+ CD4+ T cells. Unlike the epidermal localisation of CD8+ T cells in psoriasis, Tc17 cells in BD lesions infiltrated mainly the perivascular tissue and also the blood vessel walls of dermis and subcutaneous tissue. They colocalised with a marked IL-23A expression by CD11c+ dendritic cells (DCs) and CD68+ macrophages. IL-17A expression was associated with extensive recruitment of neutrophils around blood vessels that formed neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). CONCLUSIONS In BD, the genetic predisposition may mediate antigen-specific activation and differentiation of a Tc 17 response, possibly targeting endothelial antigens. Neutrophils recruited by IL-17A in this process may enhance tissue damage by extensive NET formation (NETosis). Thus, the IL-23/IL-17 axis presumably controls neutrophilic inflammation in BD vasculitis in the context of a predominant antigen-specific CD8+ T-cell response.

Abstract
The rhabdoid tumor (RT) predisposition syndromes 1 and 2 (RTPS1 and 2) are rare genetic conditions rendering young children vulnerable to an increased risk of RT, malignant neoplasms affecting the kidney, miscellaneous soft-part tissues, the liver and the central nervous system (Atypical Teratoid Rhabdoid Tumors, ATRT). Both, RTPS1&2 are due to pathogenic variants (PV) in genes encoding constituents of the BAF chromatin remodeling complex, i.e. SMARCB1 (RTPS1) and SMARCA4 (RTPS2). In contrast to other genetic disorders related to PVs in SMARCB1 and SMARCA4 such as Coffin-Siris Syndrome, RTPS1&2 are characterized by a predominance of truncating PVs, terminating transcription thus explaining a specific cancer risk. The penetrance of RTPS1 early in life is high and associated with a poor survival. However, few unaffected carriers may be encountered. Beyond RT, the tumor spectrum may be larger than initially suspected, and cancer surveillance offered to unaffected carriers (siblings or parents) and long-term survivors of RT is still a matter of discussion. RTPS2 exposes female carriers to an ill-defined risk of small cell carcinoma of the ovaries, hypercalcemic type (SCCOHT), which may appear in prepubertal females. RT surveillance protocols for these rare families have not been established. To address unresolved issues in the care of individuals with RTPS and to propose appropriate surveillance guidelines in childhood, the SIOPe Host Genome working group invited pediatric oncologists and geneticists to contribute to an expert meeting. The current manuscript summarizes conclusions of the panel discussion, including consented statements as well as non-evidence-based proposals for validation in the future.

Abstract
Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma with unfavourable prognosis for patients with advanced stages of the disease. Refractory disease and advanced-stage disease require systemic therapy. We report on a rare case of an atypical predominantly CD8+ folliculotropic MF, a subtype of MF with poorer prognosis, in a 59-year-old woman. She was initially diagnosed with MF restricted to the skin, of T3N0M0B0/stage IIB according to the current World Health Organization-European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer classification. First-line treatment with local percutaneous radiotherapy in combination with systemic interferon alfa-2a resulted in complete remission. However, 21 months later the disease progressed to T3N0M1B0/stage IVB with development of cerebral manifestation and thus very poor prognosis. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) was not a therapeutic option due to the lack of a suitable donor. We initiated methotrexate and cytarabine chemotherapy, followed by high-dose chemotherapy with thiotepa and carmustine with autologous SCT. Despite rapid response and complete remission of the cerebral lesions, disease recurrence of the skin occurred soon after. Interestingly, readministration of interferon alfa-2a as a maintenance treatment after the salvage autologous SCT resulted in a durable complete remission during the follow-up period of currently 17 months after autologous SCT. What's already known about this topic? Mycosis fungoides is a primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma with unfavourable prognosis for the advanced stages of the disease. A refractory course of disease requires systemic therapy. What does this study add? We report on an unusual case of a patient with mycosis fungoides with cerebral involvement, in which a durable complete remission was achieved upon autologous stem cell therapy and interferon alfa-2a maintenance therapy.

Abstract
Primary cutaneous lymphomas (CL) in children is rare. Only a few studies focused specifically on paediatric CL and therefore little is known whether primary CL in children are similar to or different from their adult counterparts with respect to the clinicopathological presentation, behaviour and prognosis. An extensive literature search using PubMed/MEDLINE from January 1995 through July 2014 was undertaken for articles reporting cases of paediatric CL. In addition, we identified 31 children with CL in our institutions. Mycosis fungoides and lymphomatoid papulosis are the two most prevalent lymphoma forms in children. A few entities of cutaneous lymphomas such as cutaneous diffuse large B-cell lymphoma leg type, and Sézary syndrome have not been reported so far in children. Other lymphoma entities such as hydroa vacciniforme-like lymphoma are mostly seen in certain geographic areas (Asia, Central and South America). In the paediatric population, low-malignant indolent forms such as primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma and primary cutaneous follicle centre lymphoma are very rare, whereas the more aggressive forms of B-cell lymphomas, precursor lymphoblastic lymphomas, and blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm are the most common forms in children, mostly involving the skin secondarily. Most paediatric lymphomas have similar clinicopathological features and course as their adults counterparts, particularly in the group of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. The spectrum of cutaneous B-cell lymphomas in children significantly differs from the one in adults. Diagnostic work-up and treatment of paediatric patients with lymphomas are best achieved in close collaboration with paediatric haematopathologists and oncologists.

Abstract
Background The origin of collagen autoimmune diseases is not fully understood. Some studies postulate a mechanism of molecular mimicry or heterologous immunity following viral infections triggering autoimmunity. Apart from infections, other exogenous factors such as visible light or X-rays have been reported to incite autoimmunity. Case Report We report a case of histologically and serologically confirmed subacute lupus erythematosus (SCLE) following radiotherapy for breast cancer. Discussion The close temporal and spatial correlation between radiotherapy and onset of SCLE in this patient suggests that an autoimmune reaction may have been triggered locally by functionally altering the immune system and breaking self-tolerance.

Abstract
Background Lichen planus is a common skin disorder of unknown etiology. Most cases are idiopathic, but substances such as gold, antimalarials, penicillamine, thiazide diuretics, β-blockers, arsenic and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have been implicated as trigger factors. Case Presentation We report the case of a lichenoid eruption in a male drug addict who administered oral heroin (diamorphine) intravenously. Diamorphine was stopped immediately. Following topical steroids, phototherapy and oral acitretin, the lesions gradually disappeared. A lymphocyte transformation test was negative for pure morphine and codeine. Discussion A coincidental association between the intravenous application of orally formulated semisynthetic heroin and the lichenoid eruption cannot be completely ruled out. However, the diagnosis of a lichenoid drug eruption is favoured over idiopathic lichen planus because of the clear chronological correlation between drug use and appearance as well as drug withdrawal and disappearance of the skin lesions, and because of a flare-up following repeated intravenous application of diamorphine.

Abstract
We report the case of a 21-year-old woman with symmetrically distributed, ulcerated nodules and plaques on the face, neck and arms. Initial differential diagnoses included pyoderma or sarcoidosis based on the clinical presentation and histopathology with non-caseating granulomas. After inefficient treatment with topical and systemic fusidic acid and steroids, we diagnosed nodular secondary syphilis owing to positive serology and immunohistochemical staining of Treponema pallidum in lesional skin. After treatment with benzathine penicillin, skin lesions improved and antibody titres declined significantly within 3 months. Nodular skin lesions in secondary syphilis are rare with 15 reported cases within the last 20 years. Furthermore, the granulomatous histology is often misleading. Our patient's case suggests that the physicians should be aware of syphilis as a possible differential diagnosis also in patients outside a high-risk population for sexually transmitted diseases and with an unusual clinical presentation.

Abstract
Cutaneous peripheral T-cell lymphoma, unspecified/not otherwise specified (PTL NOS) represents a phenotypically and prognostically heterogenous group of cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) that do not fit into any of well defined defined CTCL subtypes. In the WHO-EORTC classification as well as the WHO classification, three entities have been delineated as provisional rare subtypes of PTL based on their characteristic clinico-pathological, immunophenotypic and prognostic features and have been separated out from PTL, NOS: Primary cutaneous CD4-positive small/medium T-cell lymphoma (CD4+ SMTL), primary cutaneous CD8-positive aggressive epidermotropic T-cell lymphoma (CD8+ AECTCL), and primary cutaneous gamma/delta T-cell lymphoma (CGD-TCL). CD4+ SMTL manifests in most patients with a solitary nodule in the head and neck area and nodular infiltrates of CD4+ small to medium-sized lymphocytes with nuclear pleomorphism. The prognosis of this lymphoproliferation is excellent in patients with a solitary lesion, but may be impaired in patients with multifocal disease. Rapidly evolving erosive or necrotic plaques and nodules with an epidermotropic infiltrate of CD8+ atypical lymphocytes are the hallmark of CD8+ AECTCL, which exhibits a poor prognosis. CGD-TCL displays a broad spectrum of clinical and histological manifestations with expression of the T-cell receptor gamma/delta chain as the common denominator and diagnostic marker. As most of other forms of PTL, CGD-TCL carries a poor prognosis. Despite the rarity of PTL NOS, clinicians as well as dermatopathologists and pathologists should be familiar with these rare CTC, especially since most of these lymphomas exhibit an unfavourable prognosis. Immediate intense treatment with multiagent chemotherapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is indicated in patients with PTL NOS. This review focuses on the clinicopathological aspects, the diagnostic criteria and the classification of the rare subtypes of PTL and PTL NOS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rituximab (MabThera); Roche, Basel, Switzerland; an anti-CD20 chimeric monoclonal antibody) has been shown to have significant activity in nodal B-cell lymphomas, with few associated adverse effects. Its efficacy and safety were first demonstrated in the treatment of systemic B-cell lymphomas. Intravenous and subsequently intralesional administration of rituximab have also been reported to be effective and well tolerated in cutaneous B-cell lymphoma (CBCL). The comparative efficacy of intravenous vs. intralesional rituximab in CBCL is not known. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the objective response rate, relapse rate, time to progression, and tolerance in patients with CBCL treated with intravenous or intralesional rituximab. METHODS Eight patients with multiple primary CBCL (four follicle centre lymphoma and four marginal zone lymphoma) were treated with intralesional rituximab (six patients; 10-30 mg per lesion, three times weekly for one or two cycles at a 4-week interval) or intravenous rituximab (two patients; 375 mg m(-2) once weekly for four consecutive weeks). RESULTS Complete clinical remission was obtained in all cases. The two patients treated intravenously did not relapse during a follow-up period of 18-24 months. Four of six patients treated intralesionally presented a relapse of new lesions at another site within a mean of 6 months after treatment. The injected lesions did not, however, recur. New lesions also responded to another cycle of intralesional rituximab. Tolerance to treatment was very good in both treatment groups. CONCLUSIONS Rituximab therapy of CBCL appears to have a potential advantage in cases where lesions are localized in sites that are difficult to treat with radiotherapy or surgery and in which secondary scarring or alopecia is likely. Intralesional injections of rituximab allow the use of considerably smaller doses compared with intravenous treatment, with similar response rates and tolerance. However, within a 12-month follow-up period, relapse of CBCL with new lesions at distinct sites was frequently observed after intralesional treatment.

Abstract
Denileukin diftitox (Ontak) is a fusion protein comprising a diphtheria toxin and an interleukin (IL)-2 moiety that specifically targets CD25 (IL-2 receptor)-positive tumour cells. We report a patient with rapidly progressive Epstein-Barr virus-positive nasal type extranodal natural killer/T-cell lymphoma (extranodal NKTCL), treated with a combination of denileukin diftitox (Ontak) and oral bexarotene (Targretin). A significant regression of the cutaneous tumours was observed already after the first cycle of denileukin diftitox and was maintained for a period of 5 months with monthly cycles of denileukin diftitox. The treatment was well tolerated. Following this response the patient decided to stop the treatment. He was then followed by his oncologist and lost from dermatological follow-up. Shortly after treatment withdrawal the disease progressed and the patient received one cycle of doxorubicin (Caelyx). He died from septic shock syndrome 2 months later. To our knowledge this is the first case of extranodal NKTCL treated with denileukin diftitox and bexarotene. A striking, albeit transient, response occurred with this therapy. Combination treatment with denileukin diftitox and bexarotene should be further assessed in this aggressive type of cutaneous lymphoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amicrobial pustulosis of the folds is a recently described entity characterized by relapsing pustular lesions involving predominantly the cutaneous folds and the scalp. The disease typically occurs in the context of an autoimmune or systemic disease and should be included within the spectrum of neutrophilic dermatoses. OBSERVATION We describe a patient with a history of systemic lupus erythematosus, who developed amicrobial pustulosis of the folds. Strikingly, the patient also exhibited recurrent oral and gastrointestinal manifestations that paralleled the course of the cutaneous signs. CONCLUSIONS Our observation indicates that, in analogy to the other neutrophilic dermatoses, amicrobial pustulosis of the folds can also be complicated by the development of extracutaneous neutrophilic involvement, knowledge of which is critical for its diagnosis and proper management.
