RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Linear IgA bullous dermatosis (LABD) is a rare autoimmune disease. Although dapsone is the initial treatment, other immunomodulators are used in resistant cases or when dapsone is unavailable. CASE REPORT: A 12-year-old Mexican child, with no relevant medical history, developed in May 2023 a disseminated dermatosis affecting all body segments, including mucous membranes, characterized by erythematous patches and plaques evolving into the formation of serous and serosanguinous blisters and vesicles, distributed in a "string of pearls" pattern. LABD was suspected and confirmed by skin biopsy, which showed a subepidermal blister with neutrophilic infiltration and linear Immunoglobulin A deposits at the dermo-epidermal junction by direct immunofluorescence. Treatment with prednisone (2 mg/kg/day) and cyclosporine (5 mg/kg/day) resulted in improvement and lesion remission within 2 weeks. Both drugs needed to be discontinued for 3 months due to intermittent blistering. Cyclosporine was continued as maintenance therapy at a dose of 4 mg/kg/day for 8 months. CONCLUSIONS: The report highlights the use of cyclosporine as an alternative immunomodulator for DAAL, an immunosuppressive agent used in autoimmune disorders. Few cases, including this one, have described complete remission and control of the dermatosis with cyclosporine, accompanied by prednisone at the start of treatment.


INTRODUCCIÓN: La dermatosis ampollosa por IgA lineal es una enfermedad autoinmunitaria rara. Aunque la dapsona es el tratamiento inicial, se usan otros inmunomoduladores en casos resistentes o cuando la dapsona no está disponible. CASO CLÍNICO: Un niño mexicano de 12 años, sin antecedentes relevantes, desarrolló en mayo de 2023 una dermatosis diseminada a todos los segmentos corporales, incluyendo las mucosas, caracterizada por manchas y placas eritematosas que evolucionaron hacia la formación de ampollas y vesículas serosas y serohemáticas, distribuidas en forma de «cadena de perlas¼. Se sospechó dermatosis ampollosa por IgA lineal y se confirmó mediante biopsia cutánea, que mostró una ampolla subepidérmica con infiltrado neutrófilo y depósitos lineales de IgA en la unión dermoepidérmica mediante inmunofluorescencia directa. El tratamiento con prednisona (2 mg/kg al día) y ciclosporina (5 mg/kg al día) resultó en mejoría y la remisión de las lesiones a las 2 semanas. Fue necesario dejar ambos fármacos durante 3 meses debido a la aparición intermitente de ampollas. Se dejó ciclosporina como terapia de mantenimiento a dosis de 4 mg/kg al día por 8 meses. CONCLUSIONES: El reporte destaca el uso de ciclosporina como inmunomodulador alternativo para la dermatosis ampollosa por IgA lineal, un agente inmunosupresor utilizado en trastornos autoinmunitarios. Pocos casos, incluido este, han descrito la remisión completa y el control de la dermatosis con ciclosporina, acompañada de prednisona al inicio del tratamiento.

RESUMO

The aims of this study were (i) to evaluate the effect of density, lineage, age, and time of day on dorsal surface temperature and (ii) to evaluate the effect of density and lineage on performance and carcass condemnations in broiler grillers. The evaluations were carried out in barns with the Dark House system, with two densities, 17 and 19 chickens/m2 and two lineages, Cobb and Ross. The dorsal surface temperature of the chickens was measured by infrared thermography at 7, 14, 21, 23, 25 and 27 days of age, four times a day. The average daily weight gain, feed conversion, mortality, partial carcass condemnations, as well as those due to arthritis and dermatosis were also evaluated. The highest dorsal surface temperatures were observed in Cobbs housed at a density of 17 chickens/m2, and in Ross housed at a density of 19 chickens/m2. Cobbs housed at a 17 chickens/m2 density showed the lowest feed conversion compared to Ross at the same density. Ross showed higher dorsal surface temperatures when compared to Cobbs at 14, 21, and 27 days. Cobbs showed higher percentages of partial carcass condemnation and arthritis compared to Ross. The higher density of broiler grillers in the Dark House system does not influence the dorsal surface temperature, performance, dermatosis, arthritis, and partial carcass condemnations.

RESUMO

This article addresses the diagnostic challenges of palmoplantar dermatoses (PPD) within the scope of Primary Health Care (PHC). These common skin conditions, encountered in daily practice, exhibit a diverse range of symptoms and morphologies, complicating their diagnosis. They are etiologically classified into infectious inflammatory, non-infectious inflammatory, and hereditary keratodermas. While various dermatoses may affect the palms and soles, few are specific to this area. Notable examples include palmoplantar pustulosis, dyshidrosis, erythema pernio, and Bazex syndrome. Given the high prevalence of dermatological consultations in PHC, this article underscores the significance of PHC professionals' knowledge regarding these conditions. It proposes a diagnostic algorithm to facilitate their management and timely referral.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Acquired perforating dermatosis (APD) is a frequent disorder in hemodialysis patients and the effect on the quality of life is poorly described. We investigated the prevalence of APD in hemodialysis patients, measured and compared APD-associated quality of life. METHODS: We developed a prospective, observational, and descriptive study. We invited patients over the age of 18 in hemodialysis. Data was obtained from their electronic file and a dermatological examination was performed. The Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) was applied. Descriptive analysis of demographic variables, clinical features, and dermoscopy findings, as well as comparison of DLQI scores, was made. RESULTS: The sample consisted of 46 patients, with a prevalence of APD of 11%. Patients with APD were leaner and younger compared to patients without APD. The time on hemodialysis was longer in patients with APD compared to those without APD, with a median of 90 versus 32 months (p = 0.015). The impact on quality of life was greater in patients with APD compared to those without APD, with some effect in all patients with APD and 33% in patients without APD (p = 0.001). Patients with APD had more frequent pruritus compared to those without APD (p = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS: Age, time on hemodialysis and BMI are associated with the presence of APD. Patients with APD had a higher prevalence of pruritus and a greater impact on quality of life in dermatology compared to patients without APD.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) has increased in the recent decades, along with the number of patients in the terminal stages of this disease, requiring transplantation. Some skin disorders are more frequent in patients with CKD and in renal transplant recipients (RTR). OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the frequency of skin diseases in RTR and patients with CKD receiving conservative treatment. DESIGN AND SETTING: This observational cross-sectional study recruited consecutive patients with CKD and RTR from a nephrology clinic at a teaching hospital in Brazil between 2015 and 2020. METHODS: Quantitative, descriptive, and analytical approaches were used. The sample was selected based on convenience sampling. Data were collected from dermatological visits and participants' medical records. RESULTS: Overall, 308 participants were included: 206 RTR (66.9%, median age: 48 years, interquartile range [IQR] 38.0-56.0, 63.6% men) and 102 patients with CKD (33.1%, median age: 61.0 years, IQR 50.0-71.2, 48% men). The frequency of infectious skin diseases (39.3% vs. 21.6% P = 0.002) were higher in RTR than in patients with CKD. Neoplastic skin lesions were present in nine (4.4%) RTR and in only one (1.0%) patient with CKD. Among the RTR, the ratio of basal cell carcinoma to squamous cell carcinoma was 2:1. CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed that an increased frequency of infectious skin diseases may be expected in patients who have undergone kidney transplantation. Among skin cancers, BCC is more frequently observed in RTR, especially in those using azathioprine.

RESUMO

Background: DRESS syndrome (Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms) is an idiosyncratic reaction characterized by peripheral eosinophilia and systemic symptoms: fever, exanthema, lymphadenopathy, hepatitis, atypical lymphocytes and elevated liver enzymes. The incidence is 1 per 10,000 exposures, mortality 10-20%. Treatment is based on suspension of the suspected drug and steroids. Case report: A 42-year-old male with the following important antecedents. AHF: mother and father with Diabetes Mellitus type 2. APP: Arterial Hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus type 2, and bee sting allergy. Current Condition: He started 8 days after ingestion of hydroxychloroquine for probable SARS-COV-2 infection, with headache, facial and neck edema, desquamative dermatosis on trunk and upper extremities, went to private clinic with torpid evolution sent to third level for increased facial and neck edema, which merited orotracheal intubation, management with intravenous steroids and antihistamines. Labs on admission: Leukocytes 20090, platelets 322 thousand, eosinophilia (5%), elevated liver enzymes and acute kidney injury, fulfilling J-SCAR criteria. The patient was discharged due to adequate evolution with follow-up by Allergy and Clinical Immunology, the patient persists with desquamative lesions after 4 weeks and normalization of laboratory parameters. Conclusions: DRESS is a delayed adverse reaction. It is important the diagnostic presumption and the causal relationship with the drugs due to the high mortality rate.


Antecedentes: El síndrome DRESS (Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms) es una reacción idiosincrática, se caracteriza por eosinofilia perifé- rica y síntomas sistémicos: fiebre, exantema, linfadenopatía, hepatitis, linfocitos atípicos y elevación de enzimas hepáticas. La incidencia es de 1 por cada 10,000 exposiciones, mortalidad de 10 a 20%. El tratamiento se basa en la suspensión del fármaco sospechoso y en la aplicación de esteroides. Reporte de caso: Masculino de 42 años con los siguientes antecedentes de importancia. AHF: madre y padre con Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2. APP: Hipertensión Arterial, Diabetes Mellitus tipo 2, y alergia a picadura de abeja. Padecimiento Actual: Lo inicia posterior a 8 días tras la ingesta de hidroxicloroquina por probable infección por SARS-COV-2, con cefalea, edema facial y de cuello, dermatosis descamativa en tronco y extremidades superiores, acude a clínica particular con evolución tórpida enviado a tercer nivel por aumento de edema facial y cuello, que amerito intubación orotraqueal, manejo con esteroides intravenosos y anti- histamínicos. Laboratorios a su ingreso: Leucocitos 20090, plaquetas 322 mil, eosinofilia (5%), elevación de enzimas hepáticas y lesión renal aguda, cumpliendo criterios J-SCAR. Se egresa por adecuada evolución con seguimiento por Alergia e Inmunología Clínica, el paciente persiste con lesiones descamativas posterior a 4 semanas y normalización de parámetros de laboratorios. Conclusión: DRESS es una reacción adversa retardada. Es importante la presunción diagnóstica y la relación causal con los fármacos por la alta tasa de morta- lidad.

RESUMO

Background: Fixed erythema pigmento (FPE) is an allergic drug reaction, the pathophysiology of which is not exactly known. It is more common in women with location on the face. Clinical presentation: round or oval red-purple macule, well defined, with swelling, pain, itching, and burning. Diagnosis is clinical, oral chal- lenge is contraindicated due to possible severe reaction. On withdrawal of the drug, residual violaceous hyperpigmentation remains. Case report: 34-year-old female diagnosed with allergic rhinitis and asthma. She received treatment with ibuprofen and cephalexin 1 month ago due to dental infection. For the past 2 weeks, she has presented dermatological lesions characterized by hyperpigmentation under the lower eyelids, accompanied by pain, burning, and itching. On physical examination, well-defined red-purple pigmentation was observed in both periocular regions. The challenge test is not justified, the clinical history is the diagnostic pillar. The indication is to stop the medication immediately and continue monitoring. Conclusions: EPF is a drug reaction related to drug use. It creates a challenge for diagnosis due to poor knowledge of the characteristics of the dermatosis and poor clinical and pharmacological questioning. The EPF approach requires knowing the clinical characteristics of this dermatosis, making a differential diagnosis with other lesions and indicating the suspension of the responsible medication.


Antecedentes: El eritema pigmentado fijo (EPF) es una reacción alérgica medicamentosa, de la cual no se conoce con exactitud la fisiopatología. Es más frecuente en la mujer con localización en la cara. Presentación clínica: mácula redonda u oval de color rojo-violáceo, bien delimitada, con edema con dolor, prurito y ardor. El diagnóstico es clínico, contraindicado el reto oral por posible reacción grave. Al retirar el fármaco, queda una hiperpigmentación residual violácea. Reporte de caso: Femenina de 34 años con diagnóstico de rinitis alérgica y asma, Recibió tratamiento con Ibuprofeno y cefalexina hace 1 mes debido a proceso infeccioso dental. Desde hace 2 semanas presenta lesiones dermatológicas caracterizadas por hiperpigmentación debajo de párpados inferiores, acompañado de dolor, ardor y prurito. A la exploración física en ambas regiones perioculares se observa pigmentación bien delimitada rojo-violáceo. La prueba de reto no se justifica, la historia clínica es el pilar diagnóstico. La indicación es suspender el medicamento de inmediato y vigilancia continua. Conclusiones: El EPF es una reacción a medicamentos relacionada con el consumo de fármacos. Genera un desafío para el diagnóstico debido al pobre conocimien- to de las características de la dermatosis y un deficiente interrogatorio clínico y farmacológico. El abordaje del EPF requiere conocer las características clínicas de esta dermatosis, realizar el diagnostico diferencial con otras lesiones e indicar la suspensión del medicamento responsable.

RESUMO

Resumen El síndrome de kwashiorkor se caracteriza por malnutrición proteica y edema generalizado; algunos de los factores de riesgo que se asocian a su aparición son: vivir en pobreza, el destete reciente, las infecciones y las dietas basadas en maíz y arroz. Este síndrome puede generar manifestaciones cutáneas como piel delgada y seca, hiperpigmentación, áreas confluentes de descamación, cabello seco, hipopigmentado y desprendible, así como una dermatitis erosiva con predominio en pliegues cutáneos. El diagnóstico se basa principalmente en una evaluación nutricional integral, exploración física y estudios de laboratorio, y el éxito del tratamiento se basa en la rehabilitación nutricional temprana. Caso clínico: lactante del sexo femenino de 8 meses de edad, que acudió al Instituto Nacional de Pediatría (INP), por presentar una dermatosis generalizada de tipo descamativa de 1 mes de evolución, que fue tratada con ketoconazol tópico. Al interrogatorio la madre refiere alimentación exclusiva con atole de maíz por un diagnóstico de "alergia a la leche" y falta de recursos económicos para comprar la fórmula hidrolizada. La paciente presentaba una dermatosis diseminada que afectaba todos los segmentos corporales, caracterizada por placas hiperpigmentadas, bien definidas, de forma irregular, con descamación en láminas gruesas en región perioral y extremidades, así como áreas erosionadas, pálidas y edema generalizado en extremidades. Se realizaron exámenes de laboratorio que mostraron que la paciente tenía anemia (Hb 11.2 g/dL) e hipoalbuminemia (3.3 g/dL) que, en conjunto con las manifestaciones clínicas, integraron el diagnóstico de síndrome de Kwashiorkor. Se informaron los hallazgos clínicos y de laboratorio al servicio de Gastroenterología y Nutrición, quienes realizaron una valoración nutricional integral y decidieron iniciar tratamiento nutricional; por parte del servicio de Dermatología, se indicó el uso de emolientes y cuidados generales de la piel. Veinte días después la dermatosis y el edema habían remitido.


Abstract Kwashiorkor syndrome is characterized by protein malnutrition and edema, risk factors are recent weaning, infections, and diets based on corn and rice. This malnutrition can lead to skin manifestations such as thin, dry skin, hyperpigmentation, confluent areas of scaling, dry, hypopigmented, and detachable hair, as well as erosive dermatitis, predominantly in skin folds. The diagnosis is based on a nutritional evaluation exam, physical examination and laboratory finding, the treatment is based on early nutritional rehabilitation. Clinical case: 8-month-old female infant who attended the Instituto Nacional de Pediatría, presenting a scaling dermatosis of 1 month's evolution that was treated with topical ketoconazole. The mother reported exclusive feeding with corn gruel due to the diagnosis of "lactose allergy" and commented not enough resources to buy hydrolyzed formula. The patient presented a disseminated dermatosis to all body segments, characterized by well-defined, irregularly shaped, hyperpigmented plaques with scaling in thick sheets in the perioral region and extremities, as well as areas of eroded skin and paleness and edema of extremities. Laboratory tests were taken, where anemia (Hb 11.2 g/dl) and hipoalbuminemia (3.3 g/dl) were documented, the diagnosis of kwashiorkor syndrome was integrated. The clinical and laboratory findings were reported to the Gastroenterology and Nutrition service, who performed a nutritional assessment, and began nutritional treatment, emollients and general skin care were documented; twenty days later, the dermatosis and edema had subsided.

RESUMO

Psoríase é uma dermatose de caráter inflamatório ligado a diversas composições do ser, sendo estas a genética, o sistema imune, o ambiente e o estado mental do paciente, apresentando evidências de ser um quadro clínico multifacetado. A composição da medicina psicossomática empenha-se na relação mental e emocional e do corpo, sendo importante mostrar a relação desta com a psoríase. Por isso, busca-se avaliar as evidências disponíveis na literatura sobre a relação entre a psoríase e os aspectos psicossomáticos. Foi realizado uma a revisão de literatura, por meio de seleção de artigos das base de dados Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (PubMed/Medline), biblioteca virtual em saúde Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciElo), UpToDate e Google acadêmico. A busca por artigos científicos resultou em 20 artigos selecionados. Foi possível concluir, que há estudos fundamentados correlacionando a medicina psicossomática e a psoríase, além de que diversos fatores que afetam a homeostase corporal, provocam alterações nervosas, e consequentemente afetam as células da pele. Além disso, foi encontrado evidências que a estigmatização que os pacientes sofrem influenciam no aumento da gravidade da doença, sendo necessário a realização de um tratamento psico cognitivo-comportamental juntamente com o tratamento dos sinais e sintomas gerais da doença. Desta forma, o presente trabalho pôde olhar para a patologia com um olhar ampliado relacionado ao aspecto mental e emocional o que promove melhor compreensão e as consequências disto são a maior capacidade de intervenção sobre a psoríase.


Psoriasis is an inflammatory dermatosis linked to several compositions of the being, which are genetics, the immune system, the environment and the patient's mental state, that is, it shows evidence of being a multifaceted clinical picture. Since the composition of psychosomatic medicine is committed to the relationship between the mental, emotional, and body, it is important to show its relationship with psoriasis. Therefore, we sought to evaluate the available evidence in the literature on the relationship between psoriasis and psychosomatic aspects. A literature review was conducted by selecting articles from the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (PubMed/Medline), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciElo), UpToDate and Google Scholar databases. The search for scientific articles resulted in 20 selected articles. It was possible to conclude that there are well-founded studies correlating psychosomatic medicine and psoriasis, and that several factors that affect the body's homeostasis cause nervous alterations, and consequently affect the skin cells. Moreover, it was found evidence that the stigmatization that patients suffer influences the increase of the severity of the disease, being necessary the realization of a psycho cognitive-behavioral treatment along with the treatment of the general signs and symptoms of the disease. Thus, the present work could look at the pathology with a broader view related to the mental and emotional aspect, which promotes better understanding and the consequences of this are a greater ability to intervene on psoriasis.

Dado que la composición de la medicina psicosomática está comprometida con la relación entre lo mental, lo emocional y el cuerpo, es importante mostrar su relación con la psoriasis. Por lo tanto, se buscó evaluar la evidencia disponible en la literatura sobre la relación entre la psoriasis y los aspectos psicosomáticos. Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica seleccionando artículos de las bases de datos Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (PubMed/Medline), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciElo), UpToDate y Google Scholar. La búsqueda de artículos científicos dio como resultado 20 artículos seleccionados. Se pudo concluir que existen estudios bien fundamentados que correlacionan la medicina psicosomática y la psoriasis, y que diversos factores que afectan a la homeostasis del organismo provocan alteraciones nerviosas y, en consecuencia, afectan a las células de la piel. Además, se encontraron evidencias de que la estigmatización que sufren los pacientes influye en el aumento de la gravedad de la enfermedad, siendo necesaria la realización de un tratamiento psico cognitivo- conductual junto con el tratamiento de los signos y síntomas generales de la enfermedad. Así, el presente trabajo pudo contemplar la patología con una visión más amplia relacionada con el aspecto mental y emocional, lo que favorece una mejor comprensión y las consecuencias de ello son una mayor capacidad de intervención sobre la psoriasis.

RESUMO

El penfigoide gestacional, antes conocido como herpes gestacional, es una dermatosis rara, ampollosa, autoinmune y específica del embarazo. Aunque la etiología no se conoce del todo, la mayoría de los pacientes desarrollan anticuerpos contra una proteína hemidesmosomal transmembrana de 180 kDa. Los síntomas que definen la enfermedad son el picor intenso y las lesiones urticariales que evolucionan hacia ampollas dolorosas. Las lesiones comienzan en la región periumbilical en el 90% de los casos y se extienden rápidamente a otras zonas del cuerpo, a excepción de la cabeza y las mucosas. Es más frecuente en el segundo o tercer trimestre. En las muestras de biopsia de piel, la tinción de inmunofluorescencia directa valida el diagnóstico. Los corticoides tópicos pueden ser utilizados para tratar los síntomas leves, mientras que los corticoides orales y los antihistamínicos deben usarse para tratar los casos graves. Se presenta un caso de penfigoide gestacional.


Pemphigoid gestationis, formerly known as herpes gestationis, is a rare, blistering, autoimmune, pregnancy-specific dermatosis. Although the etiology is not fully understood, most patients develop antibodies against 180 kDa transmembrane hemidesmosomal protein. The defining symptoms of the disease are intense itching and urticarial lesions that evolve into painful blisters. Lesions begin in the periumbilical region in 90% of cases and spread rapidly to other areas of the body, except for the head and mucous membranes. It is most frequent in the second or third trimester. In skin biopsy specimens, direct immunofluorescence staining validates the diagnosis. Topical corticosteroids can be used to treat mild symptoms, while oral corticosteroids and antihistamines should be used to treat severe cases. A case of pemphigoid gestationis is presented.

RESUMO

Resumen ANTECEDENTES: La enfermedad de Paget pigmentada de la mama es una variante poco frecuente de este padecimiento cutáneo, una dermatosis que afecta al complejo areola-pezón de manera típicamente unilateral. La importancia del reconocimiento de esta dermatosis pigmentada inespecífica es que forma parte del diagnóstico diferencial del melanoma cutáneo, por manifestarse como una mácula pigmentada irregular, cuyo estudio histopatológico muestra una proliferación de melanocitos en los estratos suprabasales de la epidermis, fagocitosis de melanina y melanófagos en dermis, hallazgos muy similares al melanoma cutáneo, además de la coexistencia de células claras malignas, características de la enfermedad de Paget. La inmunohistoquímica es una técnica auxiliar en la dermatopatología, que forma parte del proceso diagnóstico de los pacientes para lograr el diagnóstico certero que, al correlacionar la clínica y el estudio histopatológico, le permite al dermatólogo tratar a los pacientes con enfermedad de Paget pigmentada de la mama junto con un equipo multidisciplinario para la búsqueda, diagnóstico y, en su caso, tratamiento quirúrgico de las neoplasias subyacentes que suelen relacionarse con esta variante pigmentada. CASO CLÍNICO: Paciente de 35 años con una lesión pigmentada que afectaba el complejo areola-pezón derecho. Con la correlación histopatológica e inmunohistoquímica se estableció el diagnóstico de enfermedad de Paget pigmentada de la mama y posterior al procedimiento ginecológico, se asoció esta dermatosis con un adenocarcinoma microinvasor triple negativo. CONCLUSIONES: La enfermedad de Paget pigmentada de la mama es un diagnóstico complejo que requiere correlación clínico-patológica y estudios de extensión para valorar su asociación con neoplasias subyacentes.


Abstract BACKGROUND: Pigmented Mammary Paget's Disease is a rare variant of this skin condition, an unilateral dermatosis that typically affects the areola-nipple complex. The importance of recognizing this nonspecific pigmented dermatosis resides in its differential diagnosis of cutaneous melanoma, as it presents as an irregular pigmented macula. The histopathological study shows proliferation of melanocytes in the suprabasal layers of epidermis, phagocytosis of melanin and melanophages in dermis. These findings are very similar to cutaneous melanoma, in addition to the presence of malignant clear epitelial cells that are characteristic of Paget's disease. Immunohistochemistry is part of the approach of patients with lesions that shows proliferating melanocytes to rule out other neoplasms. Making an accurate diagnosis by correlating the clinical, histopathological study and immunohistochemistry allows the dermatologist to approach patients with mammary pigmented mammary Paget's disease with a multidisciplinary team for the diagnosis and surgical treatment of the underlying neoplasms that are usually related to this pigmented variant. CASE REPORT: We report the case of a 35 years old woman with a pigmented lesion that affected the right areola-nipple complex. With the histopathological and immunohistochemical correlation, the diagnosis of pigmented mammary Paget's disease was made and after the gynecological approach, this dermatosis was associated with a triple negative microinvasive adenocarcinoma. CONCLUSION: Pigmented mammary Paget's disease is a complicated diagnosis that requires clinicopathological correlation and extension studies to assess its association to underlying neoplasms.

RESUMO

RESUMEN La dermatosis ampollar por IgA lineal del adulto (DLA) es una enfermedad autoinmune adquirida infrecuente, caracterizada por el depósito lineal de anticuerpos IgA en la membrana basal. La mayoría de los casos reportados son de causa idiopática, pero esta entidad también se ha visto asociada a ciertos fármacos, siendo la vancomicina el más frecuente. Se presenta un caso de DLA asociada a vancomicina, con extensa afectación cutánea y compromiso mucoso, tratado con dapsona y corticoides sistémicos con buena respuesta.


ABSTRACT Adult linear IgA bollous dermatosis (LABD) is a rare acquired autoimmune disease characterized by linear deposition of IgA antibodies on the basement membrane. Most of the reported cases are of idiopathic cause, but this entity has also been associated with certain drugs, vancomycin being the most frequent. We present a case of LABD associated with vancomycine, with extensive skin and mucosal involvement, treated with dapsone and systemic corticosteroids with a good response.

RESUMO

Introducción: La dermatosis por IgA lineal es un trastorno ampollar raro, que afecta sobre todo a niños menores de 5 años y se caracteriza por depósitos de IgA en la membrana basal dermoepidérmica. Se presenta con ampollas tensas que suelen localizarse en la zona peribucal y perineal. Objetivo: Describir una dermatosis por IgA lineal en la infancia inducida por cefalosporinas. Presentación de caso: Niño de 2 años de edad, fototipo III, que presentó una erupción vesículo-ampollar después de tratamiento con cefalosporinas por una infección en la piel. Por su presentación clínica característica y los hallazgos en la histopatología e inmunofluorescencia directa se diagnostica como dermatosis IgA lineal. Conclusiones: La dermatosis por IgA lineal es una enfermedad rara. Se conoce que en los últimos 20 años se han diagnosticado solo 4 casos en Cuba, por lo que es importante tener este hecho presente en el momento de plantear posibles causas de dermatosis ampollosas, para su intervención precoz. Es importante tener en cuenta que se puede manifestar por la exposición a fármacos como ocurrió en este caso.


Introduction: Linear IgA dermatosis is a rare blistering disorder, which mainly affects children under 5 years of age and is characterized by IgA deposits in the dermoepidermal basement membrane. It presents with tense blisters that are usually located in the perioral and perineal area. Objective: To describe linear IgA dermatosis in childhood induced by cephalosporins. Case Presentation: 2-year-old boy, phototype III, who developed a vesicle-blister rash after treatment with cephalosporins for a skin infection. Due to its characteristic clinical presentation and findings in histopathology and direct immunofluorescence it is diagnosed as linear IgA dermatosis. Conclusions: Linear IgA dermatosis is a rare disease. It is known that in the last 20 years only 4 cases have been diagnosed in Cuba, so it is important to have this fact present at the time of raising possible causes of bullous dermatoses, for early intervention. It is important to note that it can be manifested by exposure to drugs as happened in this case.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To determine the most frequent dermatoses in patients with kidney transplant in the dermatology consultation, Hospital de Especialidades, Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, in Mexico City, in the period from March 2016 to March 2020. METHOD: Descriptive, cross-sectional study that included 153 patients with a complete medical history with prior informed consent and authorization from the hospital ethics committee. RESULTS: All patients presented one or more dermatoses. The most frequent were infectious (mycosis, viral) and, in decreasing order, other dermatoses (keratosis pilaris, melasma), tumorous (benign), inflammatory (seborrheic dermatitis, eczema), probably secondary to drugs and autoimmune (alopecia areata). CONCLUSIONS: All kidney transplant patients presented at least one dermatosis, predominantly those of infectious origin. We recommend dermatological evaluation prior to transplantation for timely diagnosis and treatment of dermatoses that could increase the morbi-mortality of patients.


OBJETIVO: Determinar las dermatosis más frecuentes en pacientes con trasplante renal en la consulta de dermatología del Hospital de Especialidades, Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, en Ciudad de México, en el período de marzo de 2016 a marzo de 2020. MÉTODO: Estudio descriptivo, transversal que incluyó 153 pacientes con historia clínica completa, previo consentimiento informado y autorización del comité de ética del hospital. RESULTADOS: Todos los pacientes presentaron una o más dermatosis. Las más frecuentes fueron las infecciosas (micosis, virales) y, en orden decreciente, otras dermatosis (queratosis pilar, melasma), tumorales (benignas), inflamatorias (dermatitis seborreica, eccemas), probablemente secundarias a fármacos y autoinmunitarias (alopecia areata). CONCLUSIONES: Todos los pacientes receptores de trasplante renal presentaron al menos una dermatosis, predominando las de origen infeccioso. Recomendamos una valoración dermatológica previa al trasplante para el diagnóstico y el tratamiento oportuno de las dermatosis que podrían aumentar la morbimortalidad de los pacientes.

RESUMO

Disturbance of commensal intestinal microbiota is related to chronic inflammatory dermatosis. We analyzed the diversity of the gut microbiota to characterize the biological variation of psoriasis (Ps). Significant differences of gut microbiome profiles were revealed in murine model with psoriasis by sequencing 16S rRNA V3-V4 variable region. Group comparisons included the imiquimod cream (IMQ group, n=8), the imiquimod cream and antibiotics (ATB) (PC+IMQ group, n=8) and the healthy control (CTRL group, n=8). The gut microbiota existed in Ps groups including IMQ group and PC+IMQ group encompassed less diversity than controls, which were attributed to decreased presence of several taxa. The two Ps groups were characterized by significant reduction in firmicutes. In this study, microbiota of psoriasis was defined by an increase presence of Bacteroides. After treated with ATB, we found substantial increase of Lactobacillales but significant decrease of Clostridiales and Coriobacteriales. Relative lower abundance of multiple intestinal bacteria was observed in Ps groups. Although part of genera were concomitantly reduced in both IMQ and PC+IMQ conditions, we discovered the specialty of PC+IMQ group samples was that contained lower abundance of beneficial taxa. Characteristics of gut microbiota profiles in Ps mice were comparable to profiles in patients with Ps, which were related to alteration of specific inflammatory proteins in disease groups but were significantly different from control group. Thus, this study emphasizes the role of intestinal microbiota in the pathogenesis of Ps and provides new insight for investigating association between intestinal microbes and immune inflammation.


A perturbação da microbiota intestinal comensal está relacionada à dermatose inflamatória crônica. Analisamos a diversidade da microbiota intestinal para caracterizar a variação biológica da psoríase (Ps). Diferenças significativas do perfil microbiológico intestinal foram reveladas no modelo murino com psoríase pelo sequenciamento da região variável 16S rRNA V3-V4. As comparações de grupo incluíram o creme imiquimod (grupo IMQ, n=8), o creme imiquimod e antibióticos (ATB) (grupo PC+IMQ, n=8) e o controle saudável (grupo CTRL, n=8). A microbiota intestinal existia nos grupos Ps, incluindo o grupo IMQ e o grupo PC+IMQ englobava menos diversidade do que os controles, que foram atribuídos à diminuição da presença de vários taxa. Os dois grupos de Ps caracterizavam-se por uma redução significativa nos firicutes. Neste estudo, a microbiota da psoríase foi definida por um aumento da presença de bacteroides. Após o tratamento com ATB, encontramos um aumento substancial de Lactobacillales mas uma diminuição significativa de Clostridiales e Coriobacteriales. Uma menor abundância relativa de bactérias intestinais múltiplas foi observada nos grupos de Ps. Embora parte dos gêneros tenha sido concomitantemente reduzida tanto em condições IMQ como PC+IMQ, descobrimos que a especialidade das amostras do grupo PC+IMQ era que continham menor abundância de taxas benéficas. As características dos perfis de microbiota intestinal em ratos de Ps eram comparáveis aos perfis em pacientes com Ps, que estavam relacionados à alteração de proteínas inflamatórias específicas em grupos de doenças, mas eram significativamente diferentes do grupo controle. Assim, este estudo enfatiza o papel da microbiota intestinal na patogênese do Ps e fornece novos conhecimentos para investigar a associação entre micróbios intestinais e inflamação imunológica.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Acute Generalised Exanthematous Pustulosis (AGEP) is a rash with multiple sterile intraepidermal or subcorneal non-follicular pustules on edematous papules, with a sudden development and rapid evolution, triggered by drugs, vaccination, insect bites, exposure to mercury, and allergens. OBJECTIVES AND METHODS: We describe a female patient who developed extensive and abnormally prolonged AGEP following exposure to terbinafine and SARS-CoV vaccine. A detailed review of terbinafine-induced-AGEP cases was performed, with the aim of evaluating if the AGEP criteria would follow a different pattern when the disease is triggered by this drug. A PubMed search helped retrieve all terbinafine-induced AGEP case reports. AGEP-specific Sideroff criteria were analysed in terbinafine-induced cases and compared to other trigger causes. CONCLUSIONS: When the AGEP causative drug was terbinafine, a delay in recovery was observed, compared to the existing AGEP criteria when other causes are considered. Terbinafine frequently leads to delayed resolution AGEP probably due to the presence of the drug in the skin for several weeks after exposure, even after discontinuation, and the disease severity may be potentialised by additional factors such as concomitant viral infections or vaccination.

RESUMO

RESUMEN La dermatosis pustulosa subcórnea o enfermedad de Sneddon Wilkinson, es una enfermedad poco frecuente, caracterizada por lesiones pustulosas, recurrentes que suelen coalescer. Esta afección también se relaciona con enfermedades neoplásicas o inmunológicas. El propósito de este estudio es describir un caso clínico de ladermatosis referida en una paciente de 54 años de edad inicialmente tratada con dapsona, aunque,si bien, durante dos meses hubo mejoría, posteriormente se observa desarrollo de nuevas lesiones y alteración de las transaminasas. Por este motivo se procede a cambiar de tratamiento, por trimetoprima /sulfametoxazol.


Abstract Subcorneal pustular dermatosis or Sneddon Wilkinson's disease is a rare disease characterized by recurrent pustular lesions that often coalesce. This condition is also associated with neoplastic or immunologic diseases. The purpose of this study is to describe a clinical case of the referred dermatosis in a 54-year-old female patient initially treated with dapsone, although there was improvement for two months, subsequently new lesions developed and transaminase alteration was observed, for this reason the treatment was changed to trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Pediatric dermatological processes are frequent problems that pediatricians face during consultation. As such, they must be familiar with the most common skin pathologies of the newborn. It is extremely important to make a correct diagnosis and establish an appropriate therapy for the future well-being of the child who is beginning his life. Objective: To determine the frequency and types of alterations or skin lesions in newborns who present to the pediatric emergency department of a reference hospital. Materials and Methods: This was an observational, descriptive, prospective and cross-sectional study. Newborns who consulted for skin lesions in the Pediatric Emergency Department from August to December 2018 were evaluated. Variables were age, sex, place of origin, route of birth, gestational age, admission to the neonatal intensive care unit, type and extension of injuries, associated symptoms, and diagnoses. Data analysis: SPSS v21 using descriptive statistics. Our protocol was accepted by the institutional ethics committee, parental informed consent was obtained. Results: 416 newborns were treated, of which 19.2% (N=80) consulted for skin lesions, 32.5% (26/80) were papules, blisters 1.3% (1/80), 68,8% (55/80) were localized findings. The most frequent diagnosis was toxic erythema in 21.3% (17/80). Fever was associated in 6.3% (5/80) with skin infections and one newborn presented with bacterial sepsis from a cutaneous entry portal. Conclusions: the most frequent skin lesions were transient lesions. Toxic erythema was the predominant cutaneous alteration. Skin infections occurred in 25% % in newborns.

RESUMO

In Egypt, the lyophilized live attenuated sheep pox virus vaccine has been used for the vaccination of cattle against lumpy skin disease virus to control its economic impact on livestock industry. In this endeavor, we validate the efficacy of Carbopol® as a stabilizer and adjuvant to enhance immunogenicity of such a heterologous sheep pox virus vaccine against lumpy skin disease. Lyophilization of sheep pox virus vaccine stabilized with Carbopol® produced better physical and antigenic properties than freeze-drying with lactalbumin/sucrose stabilizer; this was manifested by superior disc uniformity, thermo-stability at 37oC, and less reduction in virus titer. Immunization of calves' groups with variable sheep pox vaccine doses containing different Carbopol® concentrations revealed that 103.5 TCID50 of sheep pox virus vaccine enclosing 0.5 percent Carbopol® is the field dose of choice. Moreover, it induced protective serum neutralizing index of 2.5 and a ELISA S/P ratio of 36, by the 4th week post vaccination. Besides, the inclusion of 0.5 percent Carbopol® in formulation of the sheep pox virus vaccine was safe in bovines and enhanced cellular immune response to lumpy skin disease virus, as evidenced by increased T cell proliferation. Hence, it is recommended to use Carbopol® as 0.5 percent in preparation of live attenuated sheep pox virus vaccine to confer better protection against lumpy skin disease virus infection(AU)


En Egipto, la vacuna atenuada liofilizada contra el virus de la viruela ovina ha sido utilizado para la vacunación del ganado, contra el virus de la dermatosis nodular contagiosa, para controlar su impacto económico en la industria ganadera. En este trabajo, validamos la eficacia del Carbopol®, como estabilizador y adyuvante, para mejorar la inmunogenicidad de dicha vacuna heteróloga contra la dermatosis nodular contagiosa. La liofilización de la vacuna contra el virus de la viruela ovina estabilizada con Carbopol®, resultó en mejores propiedades físicas y antigénicas que la liofilización con el estabilizador de lactoalbúmina/sacarosa; lo anterior se manifestó en la uniformidad superior del disco, la termoestabilidad a 37°C y la menor reducción del título del virus. La inmunización de grupos de terneros con dosis variables de vacuna contra el virus de la viruela ovina, que contenían diferentes concentraciones de Carbopol®, reveló que la dosis de campo de elección fue 103,5 TCID50 de la vacuna contra el virus de la viruela ovina conteniendo 0,5 por ciento de Carbopol®, la que indujo un índice de neutralización sérica protectora de 2,5 y una relación S/P de ELISA de 36 a la cuarta semana después de la vacunación. Además, la inclusión de Carbopol® al 0,5 por ciento en la formulación de la vacuna contra el virus de la viruela ovina fue segura en los bovinos y potenció la respuesta inmunitaria celular contra el virus de la dermatosis nodular contagiosa, como lo demuestra el aumento de la proliferación de células T. Por lo tanto, se recomienda el uso de Carbopol® al 0,5 por ciento en la preparación de la vacuna viva atenuada contra el virus de la viruela ovina para conferir una mejor protección contra la infección por el virus de la dermatosis nodular contagiosa(AU)
