Prolidase deficiency

Prolidase deficiency is characterized by skin lesions (typically severe, chronic, recalcitrant, and painful skin ulcers of the lower extremities and telangiectasias of the face and hands), recurrent infections (particularly of the skin and respiratory tract), dysmorphic facial features, variable intellectual disability, and organomegaly (typically splenomegaly but occasionally associated with hepatomegaly) with elevated liver enzymes. Skeletal anomalies, chronic pulmonary disease, anemia, thrombocytopenia, hypergammaglobulinemia, and hypocomplementemia are observed in a minority of affected individuals. An association between prolidase deficiency and autoimmune conditions – particularly systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) – has been described. [from GeneReviews]

Hereditary benign telangiectasia

A rare skin disease characterized by widespread cutaneous telangiectases usually first appearing on the lower limbs and slowly progressing upwards to involve the trunk and arms. The lesions can be diffuse, localized, macular, plaque-like, discrete, or confluent. Recurrent bleeding from the skin and mucous membranes is not a common feature. Likewise, co-existing epidermal or dermal abnormalities, like atrophy, depigmentation, or purpura, are absent. The condition is non-hereditary, and to establish the diagnosis, other primary and secondary telangiectases must be excluded. [from ORDO]
