Anti‐granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (anti‐GM‐CSF) antibodies, classically associated with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP), are increasingly recognised as a cause of adult‐onset immunodeficiency predisposing to opportunistic infections. Coinfections with multiple opportunistic pathogens in this context are uncommon.

An Unusual Case of Cutaneous Nocardia cyriacigeorgica Infection Assuming the Appearance of Shingles
Nocardia is an opportunistic organism that commonly infects the lungs of the immunocompromised and can cause disseminated infections. Diagnosis of Nocardia cyriacigeorgica is through culture and susceptibilities, aided by 16S rRNA sequencing. We report a case of a shingles‐like rash eruption due to Nocardia cyriacigeorgica in a 69‐year‐old patient with

Scalp Actinomycosis Presenting as Chronic Discharging Sinuses: A Rare Case Report
ABSTRACT Actinomycosis is a rare, chronic granulomatous infection caused by anaerobic, filamentous bacteria of the genus Actinomyces, typically involving the cervicofacial, thoracic, or abdominopelvic regions. Scalp involvement is exceptionally rare and frequently misdiagnosed as a neoplastic or tubercular condition. We report the case of a 47‐year‐old
