Lymphangioma circumscriptum (LC) results from the development of abnormal lymphatic vasculature and is characterized by the presence of grouped vesicles filled with clear or colored fluid. Vulvar localization is uncommon. Abnormalities of the lymphatic system, such as lymphedema and cystic hygroma, are well-known features of genetic disorders such as Noonan syndrome (NS) and Turner syndrome. We report the case of a patient with NS who presented with LC of the vulva. We also discuss the expanding spectrum of clinical anomalies associated with the presentation of NS.

Cutaneous aspergillosis is a rare infection most often seen in immunocompromised patients. We report a case of primary cutaneous aspergillosis infection in a nonhealing scalp wound of an immunocompetent elderly patient. The patient had a cutaneous malignancy of the scalp treated with surgical excision but complicated by poor wound healing. Fungal culture of the nonhealing wound revealed Aspergillus niger. The nonhealing wound subsequently resolved with retapamulin ointment 1% and ketoconazole gel 2%.
