    No full text
    A sixty-six-years old male patient was evaluated in the dermatology outpatient clinic with extensive hyperpigmented macules and two tumoral lesions approximately three cm diameter around the umblicus. Antimycotic and corticosteroid treatment was administered. However, as the complaints increased, a diagnosis of mycosis fungoides was made as a result of a skin biopsy. Six cures of single- agent gemcitabine chemotherapy were administered by the hematology outpatient clinic and a complete response was obtained. A case of mycosis fungoides is presented to increase awareness of this rare disease. [Med-Science 2022; 11(1.000): 416-8

    Myalgia and headache are relatively common in COVID-19 disease, but a serious neurological disease is uncommon. In this case, we describe the symptoms and clinic of AMSAN, a rare variant of Guillain Barre syndrome (GBS) due to COVID 19. We presented a case of AMSAN, a rare variant of GBS, in a 46-year-old male patient with poor overall condition that did not recover after COVID-19 disease, loss of strength and decreased sensation in distal limbs. electromyography-nerve conduction study findings were suggestive acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis was elevated protein with a normal white blood cell count. The clinical diagnosis of AMSAN supported by results of diagnostic testing such as cerebrospinal fluid and electromyography-nerve conduction study
