Trichodysplasia spinulosa--a rare complication in immunosuppressed patients.

Pediatric dermatology, 2011
Immunosuppression is necessary in a large number of conditions to modify immune responses and control disease severity. It is a vital part of treatment regimes following organ and bone marrow transplants. However, the use of immunosuppressive drugs has been shown to cause infections with common and unusual pathogens. We present the case of a 5-year-old
