Publication Egg Allergy in infancy(Society of Dermatologists, Venereologists and Leprologists of Nepal (SODVELON), 2010) Shrestha, R; Shrestha, D; Poudyal, R; Mishra, NAbstract Egg allergies are one of the most common allergies of childhood and the reactions may vary from mild to severe. A family history of egg allergy or atopy is a risk factor for egg allergy. Most food-induced allergic reactions occur on first known oral exposure, especially in the case of eggs and peanuts. We report a case of nine months old infant who developed egg allery (contact dermatitis) after contact with egg white, with a positive family history of atopy and egg allergy. Keywords Egg allergy; contact dermatitis; infancy.Publication Lewandowski & Lutz Syndrome: A Rare Case Entity(Society of Dermatologists, Venereologists and Leprologists of Nepal (SODVELON), 2017) Mohan, Rikta; Gahalaut, P; Soodan, HS; Mishra, N; Rastogi, MNAbstract: Epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV), first described in 1922 by Lewandowski and Lutz, is a rare inherited genetic disease. The disease usually manifests in childhood with highly polymorphic, widespread lesions. We report a case of a fifteen year old boy, who presented to us with multiple flat topped, hypopigmented papules of a seven year duration on his body. He was diagnosed with EV on a skin biopsy, after ruling out differential diagnosis of pityriasis versicolor, verruca vulgaris and acrokeratosisverruciformis. The patient was resistant to known treatment options. Key message: sun protection and lifelong observation for diagnosis and improved prognosis of malignant or premalignant lesions of EV. Keywords: pityriasis versicolor, verruca-like lesions, sun exposed sites
