Popis: This article examines two conditions in which neurological symptoms prominently manifest alongside dermatological manifestations. The first condition, Rosolimo–Melkersson–Rosenthal syndrome, encompasses three cardinal features: macrocheilia, fissured tongue, and facial nerve palsy, with macrocheilia often presenting as the monosymptom. When the clinical presentation is limited to macrocheilia, dermatologists typically manage the treatment, while cases with evident facial nerve palsy are referred to neurologists. The second condition is herpes zoster, the clinical manifestations of which unequivocally necessitate dermatological intervention. Apart from cutaneous eruptions, the primary focus shifts to neurological involvement, presenting as neuropathic disorders (agonizing pain syndromes concurrent with eruptions) and post-herpetic neuralgia, which can endure for an extended period. Consequently, the management of such patients involves collaboration between dermatologists and neurologists.
