Iododerma with cryptococcus‐like changes

Abstract Iododerma is a rare halogenoderma resulting from exposure to iodinated compounds. We present a case involving a 51‐year‐old Caucasian female with advanced renal disease who developed a hemorrhagic and papulonodular eruption following oral contrast exposure. Cryptococcoid bodies were noted on histopathological evaluation and raised suspicion for the diagnosis of iododerma, which was ultimately confirmed through serum and urine iodine studies. This case highlights a severe presentation of iododerma with important dermatopathology findings.
