Infection

An intensely itchy dermatosis developed on the back of a 30-year-old Saudi Arabian renal transplant patient. The patient had never before experienced a similar eruption. He was taking prednisone and azathioprine to prevent transplant organ rejection, as well as amoxicillin for an upper respiratory tract infection.

A 25-year-old man presented with an erythematous, pruritic, scaly, macular rash that had begun behind his ears and spread over his neck, chest, trunk, and upper and lower extremities.

Sudden onset of crampy pain in the left lower abdomen, followed by diarrhea with bright red blood, resulted in hospitalization of an 82-year-old man.
