“…Despite the above quoted statistical information regarding the separate coexistence of each of the mentioned skin diseases with DM, the literature concerning a conjoint appearance of several of these cutaneous disorders in the same patient includes case reports demonstrating combinations of only a few of these skin conditions (43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48). The actual occurrence of seven cutaneous manifestations in the same individual is, to our knowledge, unique.…”

“…Dermatophyteinfection is rather rare but a few cases have been reported. Epidermophyton floccosum (6)(7)(8), Trichophyton tonsurans (1), T. rubrum (9), Microsporum canis (10) and M. audouinii (11) have been isolated. Clinical features are usually widespread dermatophytoses, but in very rare instances hyperkeratotic and exophytic infections may be observed (1,6).…”

The clinical and immunological studies of an unusual case of chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis (CMCC) are reported. An 18-year-old male with life-long CMCC was superinfected by a dermatophyte showing exophytic clinical features in his childhood. In addition he has suffered from fatal cryptococcal meningitis since the age of 18. The combination of three fungi, i.e., Candida albicans, Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Cryptococcus neoformans, has not been found in an examination of the literature. The author's hypothesis, "immune deviation theory" in the pathogenesis of CMCC, is presented in detail. The possible role of hypovitaminosis A anddisorder of iron metabolism in CMCC and treatment of CMCC are reviewed briefly.

Two patients classified in group 1 had some evidence of ovarian dysfunction, but ovarian autoantibodies were not detected.…”
