Background Onychomatricoma was reported for the first time by Baran and Kint as a rare nail matrix tumor with specific clinical and histologic features, including a macroscopic appearance of filiform digitations originating from the nail matrix which are inserted in the nail plate. 1 The appearance of the lesion may resemble that of an “anemone.” All previous reports have been mostly from Europe, with only one case from North America. These are the first case reports from Mexico. They show rare clinical characteristics, in particular tumor involving the entire nail matrix.

Skin diseases have a very high frequency either in developed as well as in undeveloped countries. Guerrero, Chiapas, and Oaxaca are the most impoverished states in Mexico, where 24% of the population lacks basic health care, and only 15% are estimated to have access to specialists. Community Dermatology program was founded in 1991 with the intention of improving the dermatological health of remote, marginalized inhabitants of the state of Guerrero. The program consists of a two‐day visit to a pre‐selected community; the first day includes a basic dermatology training course for local providers, and day 2 is a “Jornada”,”which means a day of free medical consultation and treatment. Pityriasis albus Cloasma, vitiligo, and acne continue to be the most frequent diagnosed primary disorders, as in rural areas occupational obligations include prolonged sun exposure. The experience and success of Community Dermatology over the last 20 years has demonstrated that this model of healthcare delivery and instruction is economically feasible, provides practical and quantifiable benefits for the communities served, and could be emulated by other disciplines within medicine.

We report a 21‐year‐old farmer with a 4‐year history of a nodular plaque with fistulas and induration of adjacent skin. The lesion had been treated surgically at another hospital, but recurred 2 years later.

Patients who have a foreign body reaction are at risk of developing chronic ulcers secondary to necrosis, due to the inflammation present in the affected tissues or trauma, worsened by alterations in the vascular perfusion. These ulcers represent a therapeutic challenge for both physicians and patients.

The uncontrolled sale of topical corticosteroids has become an important risk factor for the development of iatrogenic Cushing syndrome in children, especially in countries where medications are sold over the counter. This is exacerbated by the lack of information for both the patients and pharmacists. This report documents a series of eight cases of iatrogenic Cushing syndrome secondary to an inappropriate use of topical steroids, due to a misdiagnosis of scabies.

Mycetomas are frequent subcutaneous mycoses with typical clinical characteristics such as sinuses, blood‐stained, serous, or purulent exudates as well as local swelling. Even though the most commonly affected areas are the lower limbs, we report four cases affecting the neck and midback regions, of which three were young females. We draw attention to the importance of early identification of these cases for prevention and specific treatment in order to avoid severe consequences or irreversible complications such as quadriplegia.

Malassezia spp. folliculitis is a variant quite frequent at the tropics. The clinical aspect of perifollicular pustules on an erythematous base with a central hair is the clue for the diagnosis, especially on hairy surfaces. We describe this clinical form caused by Malassezia sp., with background, direct examination findings, and histopathology.
