  • Pathogenesis of Rosacea Anetta E
    REVIEW Pathogenesis of Rosacea Anetta E. Reszko, MD, PhD; Richard D. Granstein, MD Rosacea is a chronic, common skin disorder whose pathogenesis is incompletely understood. An inter- play of multiple factors, including genetic predisposition and environmental, neurogenic, and microbial factors, may be involved in the disease process. Rosacea subtypes, identified in the recently published standard classification system by the National Rosacea Society Expert Committee on the Classification and Staging of Rosacea, may in fact represent different disease processes, and identifying subtypes may allow investigators to pursue more precisely focused studies. New developments in molecular biology and genetics hold promise for elucidating the interplay of the multiple factors involved in the pathogen- esis of rosacea, as well as providing the bases for potential new therapies. osacea is a common, chronic skin disorder and secondary features needed for the clinical diagnosis primarily affecting the central and con- of rosacea.

    Acne and acneiform related eruptions Objectives : ➢ To know the multiple pathogenetic mechanisms causing acne ➢ To recognize the clinical features of acne. ➢ To differentiate acne from other acneiform eruptions such as rosacea. ➢ To prevent acne scars and treat acne efficiently. ➢ To recognize the clinical features of rosacea, it’s variable types, differential diagnosis and treatment ➢ To recognize the features of perioral dermatitis, differential diagnosis and treatment. ➢ To recognize the features of hidradenitis suppurativa and treatment Done by: Sadeem Alqahtani & Khawla Alammari Revised by: Lina Alshehri. [ Color index : Important | Notes | Extra ] ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ACNE VULGARIS Definition/prevalence: ● Multifactorial disease of pilosebaceous unit that affects both males and females. ​ ​ ● It is the most common dermatological disease. ● Mostly prevalent between 12-24 yrs. Affects 8% between 25-34, 4% between 35-44. Pathogenesis: 1- Ductal cornification and occlusion (micro-comedo). 2- Increased sebum secretion (Seborrhoea). 3- Ductal colonization with propionibacterium acnes. 4- Rupture of sebaceous gland and inflammation. Specialized terms: ● Microcomedone: Hyperkeratotic plug made of sebum and keratin in follicular canal. ​ ● Closed Comedo (Whitehead): Closed follicular orifice, accumulation of sebum and keratin ​ ​ ​ ​ ● Open Comedo (Blackhead): Opened follicular orifice packed with melanin and oxidized lipids ​ ​ ​ ​ ● We categorize acne (depending on the type of lesion) into: mild, moderate and severe. Comedones are considered mild. Nodules, cysts, pustules (can lead to scarring or hyperpigmentation) are ​ ​ considered moderate to severe. ​ ​ ● Our pathognomonic lesion is comedone, you can NOT diagnose acne without having comedones, if you do not have comedones THIS IS NOT ACNE! Clinical features: Acne lesions are divided into: ● Inflammatory (papules,pustules,nodules,cyst). ● Non inflammatory (open, closed comedones).

This report illustrates a case in an elderly male, originally thought to have leprosy. Biopsy revealed a nodular infiltration of inflammatory cells around adnexal structures and an intraepidermal cyst. No acid-fast organisms were identified. We present a patient who is of a different ethnic group than usually seen with this disease and provide a review of the clinical presentation, histopathological features, and management of this rare condition. Keywords: Otophyma, Leprosy, Rhinophyma, Rosacea Case synopsis A 62-year-old Filipino male presented for evaluation of his grossly enlarged ears. He had a 30-year-history of ear swelling which had recently become very itchy. He has never had his ear evaluated or treated over the past 30 years but most recently started hydrocortisone cream with no relief of his itching. Physical examination was notable for significant bilateral auricular enlargement with scattered pustules (Figure 1). No paraesthesia was noted. A punch biopsy was performed and sent for histologic analysis and culture.
