The APECED syndrome (autoimmune polyendocrinopathy, candidosis, ectodermal dystrophy) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that develops in early childhood and results in tissue-specific multiorgan autoimmunity, leading to the hypofunction of multiple glands. Is clinically defined as the presence of at least two components of the classic triad of hypoparathyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, and mucocutaneous candidiasis. We report a case in a child, illustrating the importance of dermatological disorders.

Due to the increasing prevalence of so called "life style diseases", such as diabetes, obesity or hypertension, the number of associated vascular and nerve lesions increases. In the lower limbs in particular, bagatelle trauma causes wounds that lead to wound healing disorders and chronic wounds

Basidiobolus species are filamentous fungi belonging to the order Entomophthorales. Unlike other zygomycetes, Basidiobolus species can cause subcutaneous zygomycosis in healthy individuals.Basidiobolus ranarum was first described as an isolate from frogs in 1886 and was later cultured from the intestinal contents and the excreta of frogs. It is commonly found in soil, decaying vegetable matter, and the gastrointestinal tracts of amphibians, reptiles, fish and bats.3 Basidiobolus is endemic in Uganda and certain areas of Africa, India and other parts of Asia.

Melanoma mortality rates are the highest amongst skin cancer patients. The 5-year survival rate is 92% if melanoma is diagnosed at an early stage and is localized. If melanoma has spread to other parts of the body, survival is only 13%. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop approaches that can enhance early and accurate diagnosis of melanoma. Dermatoscopy has been widely used to identify early tumor growth. With the addition of computer technology, digital dermatoscopy systems are capable of accurately assessing skin surface features modeled along the ABCD criteria and have been used for clinical assessment of pigmented skin lesions. This paper introduces a non-invasive computerized dermoscopy system that considers lesions on the skin for diagnosis.
