Febrile ulceronecrotic Mucha-Habermann disease is a very rare and severe variant of pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta. Adult cases are difficult to diagnose as in the early course they can mimic erythema multiforme or lymphomatoid papulosis. We report a case of a 38-year-old woman who
Pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta (PLEVA) is commonly thought of as a disease of young adults, yet we identified five cases, involving patients who were 3, 5, 6, 8, and 11 years of age, among 13,000 consecutive specimens submitted to a general dermatopathology laboratory during a 15-week
This prospective clinical study presents the experiences with NB-UVB monotherapy in the treatment of PLC on Vietnamese patients.We enrolled at National Hospital of Dermatology and Venereology (NHDV), Vietnam, 29 PLC patients with generalised disease
The human parvovirus B19 is a small single-strand DNA virus with specific tropism for the membranous receptor P expressed on erythrocytes and endothelial cells. About 60 - 70 % of the adult population is parvovirus B19 seropositive. The contamination usually occurs through droplets from the
Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia is sometimes associated with skin or mucous membrane eruptions. Available reviews do not address the association of Chlamydophila pneumoniae pneumonia with skin eruptions. We therefore conducted a systematic review of the literature addressing this
It has been shown in previous studies that fibrinoid necrosis not only occurs in connective tissue and in vessel walls, but can also be observed in the liver cells under special conditions and can also be provoked experimentally. It was observed in the present study that certain dermatoses (cases of
AR can be regarded as the most severe variant of the spectrum of chronic actinic dermatitis. The exact etiology is still unknown, but is probably multifactorial, involving contact allergic, photoallergenic, phototoxic, immunologic, and metabolic factors. A diagnosis of AR should only be made when
BACKGROUND
Phototherapy is effective for many dermatoses in adults, but there is a paucity of data for its use in children.
OBJECTIVE
To review the efficacy and tolerability of narrowband UVB phototherapy in children at a tertiary centre in New Zealand, and determine if there were any factors that
The aim of this prospective study in a phototherapy unit was to describe adverse events (AEs) associated with discontinuation of phototherapy in a clinical setting. A total of 872 included patients received 1,256 courses of phototherapy treatment: 76.9% narrow-band UVB (NBUVB); 9.6% systemic
Phototherapy is used for the medical care of cutaneous conditions that do not respond to topical or systemic medical agents, and for conditions that require broad exposure to UV as a stabilizing agent for disease. Numerous wavelengths and delivery devices of ultraviolet light are used in childhood.
Interface dermatitis includes diseases in which the primary pathology involves the dermo-epidermal junction. The salient histological findings include basal cell vacuolization, apoptotic keratinocytes (colloid or Civatte bodies), and obscuring of the dermo-epidermal junction by inflammatory cells.
BACKGROUND
Certain dermatologic conditions are known to show seasonal variations in frequency, the reasons for which are unclear but in some cases may be attributable to changes in ambient weather conditions.
OBJECTIVE
The current study was conducted to determine whether seasonal trends might exist
BACKGROUND
Ultraviolet phototherapies are important treatment modalities for a wide range of dermatological conditions. We aim to describe the utilization of phototherapy in the Department of Dermatology Hospital Kuala Lumpur.
METHODS
This is a 5-year retrospective audit on patients who underwent
Deposition of immunoglobulins, complement and fibrinogen on eosinophilic staining cells was investigated using direct immunofluorescence techniques. Serum factor deposition was detected on benign epidermal eosinophilic cells seen in pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta, sunburn erythema
BACKGROUND
Maculopapular or urticarial eruptions and erythema multiforme sometimes occur in patients affected with Mycoplasma pneumoniae respiratory infections. Further eruptions have also been reported.
OBJECTIVE
To review the literature addressing M. pneumoniae respiratory infection and rather
