A patient can be allergic to a new knee and such allergy is an often-overlooked complication of prosthetic implant surgery. Here, Fogel et al present their assessment, diagnosis and management of a ...60-year-old woman who presented to their dermatology clinic with a pruritic, crusted rash on her right knee. Eighteen months earlier, she had undergone a right knee replacement with an Evolution Medial-Pivot knee system. No complications occurred, and the patient had normal healing at the surgical site. Her past medical history was notable for conditions within the atopic diathesis, including severe asthma, sinusitis, postnasal drip, and a childhood history of eczema. In addition, she reported allergies to medications, including lisinopril and epineph rine. A review of systems was otherwise unrevealing.

This article acquaints the reader with disorders of the skin that might mimic systemic sclerosis but whose pathology is localized to the skin and/or has extracutaneous manifestations that are ...different than systemic sclerosis. These disorders include localized scleroderma (morphea), eosinophilic fasciitis, scleredema, scleromyxedema, nephrogenic systemic fibrosis, and chronic graft-versus-host disease. Particular emphasis is placed on clinical and histopathologic features that help the clinician differentiate between these disorders. Treatment options are briefly reviewed.
