    CHICAGO DERMATOLOGICAL SOCIETY CASE # 1 Presented by James Swan, M.D., Mary Martini, M.D. and Keren Horn, M.D. Department of Dermatology, Feinberg School of Medicine, Northwestern University HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS This 45 year-old Caucasian male presented for a problem-focused exam of a right upper extremity lesion. However, complete physical exam revealed peri-orbital slate-gray hyperpigmentation as well as generalized bronze hyperpigmentation in sun-exposed areas, prompting questions regarding these abnormalities. Other abnormalities in pigment included approximately 10 café au lait macules, nearly all greater than 1.5cm in size. Axillary freckling was also noted. Review of systems was positive for migraine headaches, arthritis, decreased libido and fatigue (the patient sleeps greater than 12 hours each night without feeling refreshed). PAST MEDICAL HISTORY Right orbital tumor status post excision 2001 Depression MEDICATIONS Depakote Remeron ALLERGIES Amoxicillin (angioedema) FAMILY HISTORY Brother with the same pigmentation anomalies. Both his father and his sister died of liver cancer; his sister passed away at 40 years of age. SOCIAL HISTORY The patient does not drink alcohol and has smoked one pack of cigarettes per day for the past 30 years. He is on disability due to “depression” and exhaustion which make it unable for him to sustain an eight hour work day. PHYSICAL EXAM There is peri-orbital slate-gray hyperpigmentation as well as generalized bronze hyperpigmentation in sun-exposed areas. In addition, the patient has approximately 10 café au lait macules, nearly all greater than 1.5cm in size. Axillary freckling is also noted, and there are protuberances of the left elbow and right knee.

Corresponding author: Enzo Errichetti, MD, MSc, Institute of Dermatology, Santa Maria della Misericordia University Hospital, Piazzale Santa Maria della Misericordia, 15, 33100 Udine, Italy. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT In addition to its use in pigmented and nonpigmented skin tumors, dermoscopy is gaining apprecia- tion in assisting the diagnosis of nonneoplastic diseases, especially inflammatory dermatoses (inflam- moscopy). In this field, dermoscopic examination should be considered as the second step of a “2-step procedure,” always preceded by the establishment of a differential diagnosis on the basis of clinical examination. In this paper, we sought to provide an up-to-date overview on the use of dermoscopy in common inflammatory dermatoses based on the available literature data. For practical purposes, the analyzed dermatoses are grouped according to the clinical presentation pattern, in line with the 2-step procedure principle: erythematous-desquamative and papulosquamous dermatoses, papulokeratotic dermatoses, erythematous facial dermatoses, sclero-atrophic dermatoses, and miscellaneous.

It is a form of hair shaft disorder with increased fragility. The condition is classified into inherited and acquired. Inherited forms may be either isolated or associated with numerous genetic diseases or syndromes (e.g., Menkes disease, Björnstad syndrome, Netherton syndrome, and Bazex-Dupré-Christol syndrome). Moreover, pili torti may be a feature of various ectodermal dysplasias (such as Rapp-Hodgkin syndrome and Ankyloblepharon-ectodermal defects-cleft lip/palate syndrome). Acquired pili torti was described in numerous forms of alopecia (e.g., lichen planopilaris, discoid lupus erythematosus, dissecting Citation: Hoffmann, A.; cellulitis, folliculitis decalvans, alopecia areata) as well as neoplastic and systemic diseases (such Wa´skiel-Burnat,A.; Zółkiewicz,˙ J.; as cutaneous T-cell lymphoma, scalp metastasis of breast cancer, anorexia nervosa, malnutrition, Blicharz, L.; Rakowska, A.; Goldust, M.; Olszewska, M.; Rudnicka, L.

  • Atrophic Erythematous Facial Plaques
    Photo Challenge Atrophic Erythematous Facial Plaques What’s the diagnosis? A 26-year-old woman presented with a 2-year his- tory of facial lesions that had gradually increased in size and number. Initially they were tender and pruritic but eventually became asymptomatic. She denied aggravation with sun exposure and did not use regular sun protection. Multiple pulsed dye laser treatments to the lesions had not resulted in appreciable improvement. Review of systems revealed occasional blurred vision and joint pain in her wrist and fingers of her right hand. Physical examination revealed a healthy- CUTISappearing woman. On the forehead and bilateral cheeks there were multiple atrophic, erythematous, sunken plaques with discrete borders. Each plaque measured more than 5 mm. Similar plaques were scattered across the frontal scalp, trunk, and upper extremities, though fewer in number and less atrophic with mild hyperpigmentation. There was diffuse hair thinning of the scalp. Laboratory test results included a normal complete metabolic panel, anti- nuclear antibody profile, and complete blood cell count. DoHistopathology revealed Not a superficial and mid perivascular Copy and perifollicular inflammatory infiltrate composed of lymphocytes, histiocytes, and melanophages. Vacuolar changes in the dermoepidermal junction were present. There were few dyskeratotic keratinocytes and mucin deposition present in the dermis. Direct immunofluorescence was not performed.
