    Abstract Background: Erythema multiforme is a cutaneous reaction that has only rarely been described in varicella zoster virus infection.
    Main observations: We describe a 76-year old immunocompetent male patient with thoracic herpes zoster. While treated with oral brivudin he developed a widespread cutaneous erythema multiforme. The lesions completely cleared with two weeks with systemic corticosteroids.
    Conclusion: Varicella zoster infections are possible triggers of erythema multiforme and this is the oldest patient reported with such an association. Brivudin itself has not been reported to induce erythema multiforme and is an unlikely cause of disease in our patient.

    Abstract The authors present the case of a 30-year-old male patient with a severe and long-standing dissecting cellulitis of the scalp. The disease did not respond to conventional treatment, including oral antibiotics, isotretinoin, and prednisolone. Quality of life was significantly impaired. After introduction of anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha treatment (infliximab), the malodorous discharge stopped, inflammation was reduced significantly, nodules became flat, and pain decreased. The treatment was well tolerated although he developed a temporary psoriasiform rash after the second intravenous infusion. In conclusion, anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha treatment is a new therapeutic option in this severe and recalcitrant disorder.

    Abstract Background: Pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) is a rare papulosquamous dermatosis. We evaluated evaluate co-morbidities, complications, and outcome of treatment regimens.
    Patients and methods: This is a retrospective study at an academic teaching hospital. We analyzed all patients with the definite diagnosis of PRP seen since 2001. Epidemiologic data, co-morbidities, response to and course during treatment were investigated.
    Results: We identified 10 PRP-patients (6 men, 4 women), mean age 56.4 years, with type I (n = 9) and type IV (n = 1). Three patients had internal co-morbidities (atrial fibrillation with cardiac insufficiency, dilated cardiomyopathy, diabetes mellitus). Two patients needed psychiatric treatment because of depression. PRP caused ectropium (2 x), diffuse effluvium (1 x), and stenosis of the outer ear canal (1 x). We did not observe a spontaneous remission. Among 9 patients with PRP type I, five were treated with acitretin (two of them as Re-PUVA), and two with methotrexate (in one patient combined with fumaric acids). Systemic corticosteroids were not effective. One patient was treated with infliximab i.v., 5 mg/kg body weight. Starting with the first application, inflammatory activity decreased and erythema got paler. The treatment was well tolerated.
    Conclusions: PRP type I is a severe, chronic inflammatory dermatosis responding hesitantly to classic systemic therapies. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha antagonists are an effective treatment option for difficult cases.
