abstract: Immune disorders are associated with acne or acneiform lesions secondary to the occurrence of acne vulgaris or acneiform eruptions arising as a result of immunosuppressive medication or infection. In this review, we aim to provide an overview of acne and acneiform eruptions that can arise in the immunosuppressed host. Tips for differentiating between various acneiform entities are discussed, as well as a brief overview of treatment considerations.
