  • Tinea Incognito
    TINEA INCOGNITO http://www.aocd.org Tinea incognito is a localized skin infection caused by fungus, just like tinea corporis (ringworm) and tinea capitis (scalp ringworm). It is a skin infectious process that looks very different from other fungal infections, both the shape and the degree of involvement. Topical corticosteroid use is the culprit for the difference. Fungal infection, most often caused by Trichophyton rubrum, presents initially as a flat, scaly rash that gradually becomes a circular lesion with a raised border and the border is scaly as it advances. While the lesion enlarges, the center becomes brown or less pigmented. These skin findings comprise of the ringworm we typically see on the body. Lesions can be large or small. At this stage of the disease, if a topical corticosteroid is applied to the lesion, the local inflammation from the fungal infection will be decreased, so to alter the clinical presentation of the typical infection. And this secondary appearance is called tinea incognito. The most common site for this clinical transformation is the face and the back of the hand. The hand is a popular site for a lot of skin diseases, which is why tinea incognito is hard to diagnose and be differentiated from the others. Altered clinical picture of tinea incognito could resemble eczema, psoriasis and other diseases. What makes the clarification important is the difference in treatment approach. Corticosteroid makes tinea worse but helps the other ones. The new appearance of tinea incognito is quite different from other fungal infections. Instead of a localized lesion, it becomes much more extensive and loses its original circular shape, which is one of the most important clinical clues to diagnose fungal infection.

  • Tacrolimus-Induced Tinea Incognito
    Tacrolimus-Induced Tinea Incognito Narendra Siddaiah, MD; Capt Quenby Erickson, USAF, MC; Gea Miller, MD; Dirk M. Elston, MD Tacrolimus and pimecrolimus represent a new class of topical nonsteroidal medications cur- rently used in the treatment of a variety of inflam- matory skin lesions. We report the case of a patient in whom topical tacrolimus therapy resulted in widespread lesions of tinea incognito. This case shows that partial treatment of derma- tophytosis with griseofulvin may obscure the diagnosis. It also suggests that topical tacro- limus appears capable of inducing widespread dermatophytosis. The clinical appearance in this case was similar to tinea incognito induced by a topical corticosteroid. Cutis. 2004;73:237-238. he term tinea incognito is generally used to describe a dermatophytic infection whose T appearance is modified by the use of cortico- steroids.1 Steroids suppress local immunity, thus pro- moting fungal growth.

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.

(916)725-3900; Fax. (650)721-3464; Email: [email protected] Abstract Leukonychia refers to a white discoloration of the nails. Although several conditions may cause white nails, a rare, isolated, congenital form of the disease is hypothesized to stem from disordered keratinization of the nail plate. Herein, we report a case of a 41-year-old woman with congenital leukonychia and review prior cases. Keywords: Leukonychia, Nail disorders, Congenital nail disease Introduction Leukonychia is defined as a white or milky discoloration of the nail plate and has traditionally been subclassified into true and apparent variants. Apparent leukonychia derives from pathological changes in the nail bed (most commonly edema) resulting in tissue pallor visible through the nail plate, whereas true leukonychia stems from structural abnormalities of the nail plate itself owing to disordered keratinization occurring in the nail matrix [1]. In the latter, the white opacity of the nail plate derives from two separate histopathologic features: retained parakeratotic cells containing enlarged keratohyaline granules and disorganized keratin fibrils [2,3]. Both of these abnormalities affect and impede light diffraction through the nail plate, ultimately contributing to the characteristic white discoloration [1].

  • Ectodermal Dysplasia (Generic Term)
    Ectodermal Dysplasia (generic term) Authors: Doctor Kathleen Mortier1, Professor Georges Wackens1 Creation date: September 2004 Scientific Editor: Professor Antonella Tosti 1Department of stomatology and maxillofacial surgery, AZ VUB Brussels, Belgium [email protected] Definition Clinical classification of Ectodermal dysplasias References Definition Ectodermal dysplasias (EDs) are a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by developmental dystrophies of ectodermal structures, such as hypohidrosis, hypotrichosis, onychodysplasia and hypodontia or anodontia. About 160 clinically and genetically distinct hereditery ectodermal dysplasias have been cataloged. In the early seventies there existed no definition and no classification. Freire-Maia and Pinheiro tried to put some order in the field of ectodermal dysplasias. Firstly, the group should be defined before an attempt was made to list its conditions. Secondly, the group was so large that it was necessary to split it into several subgroups. So they decided that an ED should present any two of the signs that affected the four structures widely mentioned by the authors who studied the classic EDs – hair, teeth, nails and sweat glands – with or without any other sign (see blow). The system is arbitrary without biological relevance to the pathogenesis and genetics of the specific disorder. However, classification based on clinical signs and symptoms is all that has been available until recently, since the pathogenesis and molecular genetics of the disorder are largely unknown.

  • What Is Your Diagnosis?
    PHOTO QUIZ What Is Your Diagnosis? IMAGE NOT IMAGE NOT AVAILABLE ONLINE AVAILABLE ONLINE A 4-year-old girl presented to the dermatology clinic for the treatment of bullous impetigo. Examination revealed resolving angular cheilitis with secondary impetiginization, as well as frizzy, blond, unkempt-appearing shoulder-length hair. The patient’s parents reported that the girl’s hair was difficult to comb and had been unmanageable since birth. The patient is the offspring of nonconsanguineous parents and was the product of a healthy pregnancy. She was born at 38 weeks’ gestation by uncomplicated vaginal delivery and had experienced healthy growth and development. There was no known family history of hair disease.
