A 36-year-old man with a history of parenteral drug abuse and who was diagnosed with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) 2 years previously, was being treated for visceral leishmaniasis with parenteral glucantime. The patient complained of painful erythematous periungual lesions; the pain did not worsen or lessen with exposure to heat or cold. The physical examination showed periungual erythema with multiple telangiectasias (Fig. 1). A biopsy from periungual skin was taken. Histologic studies revealed increased numbers of dilated blood vessels in the superficial dermis, with rigid walls and normal appearing endothelium (Fig. 2). Specific staining failed to detect acid-alcohol-resistant bacilli., leishmania., or fungi. Capillary microscopy of proximal nailfolds showed diffuse dilated capillaries without avascular areas or hemorrhage. Antinuclear antibody titers were negative, serum levels of creatine and phosphokinase and an electromyogram were normal. The periungual lesions remained unchanged until the patient's death 3 months later due to Pneuniocystis carinii infection.
