BACKGROUND
Pityriasis rubra pilaris (PRP) is a cutaneous syndrome of unknown origin. Most cases are sporadic and acquired. Herein we report a fifth case of PRP-like eruption associated with ponatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI).
METHODS
A 60-year-old woman presented at the dermatology
A tyrosine kinase inhibitor (STI571, Gleevec) has recently been applied in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia. We present the first reported case of pityriasis rosea occurring as a reaction to Gleevec in a woman with blast crisis of this disorder. It is suggested that although coincidental,
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors have revolutionized the chemotherapy arena as targeted therapies for a multitude of malignancies. They are more selective than conventional chemotherapy, and often elicit fewer systemic adverse events, however toxicities still exist. Cutaneous toxicities are common and
The mechanism responsible for the hypopigmentation which follows pityriasis versicolor (P.V.) infection has not yet been satisfactorily explained. This work was done in order to study the effect of Malassezia furfur on the decomposition or the utilization of the amino acid tyrosine in vitro. No
Hyperkeratotic skin adverse events are a group of toxic effects, characterized by the disruption of epidermal homeostasis and interaction with keratinocyte proliferation/differentiation or keratinocyte survival, and frequently reported with systemic anticancer treatments. These types of reactions
