Findings from University of Belgrade Update Knowledge of Vasculitis (A Case Report of Hand and Foot Skin Changes Resembling Ptu-induced Vasculitis In a Young Male With Diffuse Toxic Goitre).

A report from the University of Belgrade discusses the case of a young male with severe diffuse toxic goitre who experienced hand and foot skin changes resembling PTU-induced vasculitis. The researchers emphasize the importance of clinicians being aware of the side effects of medications, particularly after their introduction and long-term use. The patient's skin changes were ultimately diagnosed as Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease (HFMD), which can resemble PTU-induced vasculitis. This case study highlights the need for careful evaluation and monitoring of unusual clinical scenarios related to drug use. [Extracted from the article]
