| Description: | widespread purpuric patches | ||||
| Comments: | This 68-year-old woman developed multiple, generalized purpuric patches after receiving thrombolytic therapy for myocardial infarction. Because the thrombolytic therapy markedly decreased her normal clotting function, it is believed that minor trauma from normal activities and procedures in the emergency department and inpatient hospital unit resulted in the development of widespread bruising. Purpura was associated with minimal tenderness, and all skin lesions resolved over the subsequent month. | ||||

| Description: | graft placed from donor site on hip | ||||
| Comments: | This healthy 69 year old man was bitten by a brown recluse spider while spring cleaning in the basement of his house. He initially noted stinging and itching at the site. Nine hours later he was evaluated in the emergency room for redness of the ears, perioral pallor, and light headedness. He was given oral and intramuscular corticosteroids and instructed to follow up with his primary care doctor. On the second day after the bite his oral steroid were increased when purpura was noted at the site. On day 3 he developed a blister that progressed quickly to a necrotic ulcer. Over the subsequent 7 weeks the wound was cleaned and debrided by his family doctor, and 2 months after the bite the ulcer was grafted with skin taken from the right hip. Although the graft took well and the wound healed quickly, he still experiences occasional burning and stinging at the site. | ||||
