“…2 On certain occasions, MC may occur over tattoos in the form of a pseudo-Koebner phenomenon, affecting the ink lines weeks after the tattoo's completion. [1][2][3][4] The Koebner or isomorphic phenomenon occurs when identical clinical and histological lesions develop on traumatised uninvolved areas of skin among patients who already have cutaneous diseases such as psoriasis, vitiligo or lichen planus. 2,5 When these lesions develop with infections such as MC, it is deemed a pseudo-Koebner phenomenon.…”

A 33-year-old Spanish male presented to the Department of Dermatology & Venereology at the Virgen de las Nieves Hospital, Granada, Spain, in February 2015 with pruritic skin lesions located over a tattoo on his right arm. The tattoo had been completed three months earlier without protective measures by the patient's friend at his home. At presentation, the patient was not suffering from any known illnesses. A physical examination showed several pearled papules of 0.3-0.5 cm located over the tattoo [ Figure 1A]. The papules were umbilicated and occurred over the lines of the tattoo [ Figure 1B]. Biochemical tests and a haemogram were normal. Serology for hepatitis B and C, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and syphilis was negative. The patient was diagnosed with molluscum contagiosum (MC) and treated with curettage, with a subsequent healing time of three weeks.

Mycobacterium abscessus is a rapidly growing mycobacterium that has been affecting people undergoing invasive procedures, such as videosurgery and mesotherapy. This bacterium has global distribution, being found in numerous niches. The frequency of published reports of infection by rapidly growing mycobacteria associated with tattooing procedures has increased in recent years. However, in Brazil there were no case reports of M. abscessus after tattooing in the literature until now. In this paper, we describe the case of a patient with a nine-month history of lesion on a tattoo site. The diagnosis of infection with Mycobacterium abscessus was established by correlation between dermatological and histopathological aspects, culture and molecular biology techniques. The patient had significant improvement of symptoms with the use of clarithromycin monotherapy.

The hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome, or Job's syndrome is a rare primary immunodeficiency characterized by recurrent skin abscesses, recurrent respiratory tract infections, and high levels of IgE, eosinophilia, bone and dental changes. We report the case of a fourteen-year-old male patient presenting this disease, with both typical and also some relatively sporadic manifestations. We performed a literature review on the syndrome and its associated clinical findings.
