Dermatology may be defined literally as the study of the skin and its dis- eases.3 However, today dermatology is a separate medical specialism, which is not only confined to the skin, but also includes the study of the disorders of the adjacent mucous membranes (for example, the oral cavity), many internal diseases, environmental (chemicals, plants and radiation) and psychological factors which may influence the skin, phlebology, oncology, dermatological surgery, venereology, allergology, microbiology, immunology, histopathol- ogy, genetics and pharmacotherapy.3 In the second half of the 20th century, there was a considerable increase in the dermatological knowledge especially on sophisticated research techniques in dermatology. Research techniques involving biochemistry, electron microscopy, immunology, immuno-cyto- chemistry and molecular biology have provided a better understanding of the pathogenesis and the treatment of many skin diseases.3 A short treatise on the history of medicine (historia medicinae) and dermatology “L’histoire de la science, c’est la science même”. Auguste Comte (1798-1857). The medical science is as old as the mankind itself. The same applies to the study of skin diseases.4 However, the expression “dermatology” is from more recent times.5 The important ancient nations such as Egypt, Greece, the Roman Empire, India and China have largely influenced the medical science. A clay tablet with a text in cuneiform writing on the preparation of medication from the Babylonian period (more than 4000 years ago) is perhaps one of the oldest remnants of medi- cine (nowadays in the Museum of the University of Pennsylvania, U.S.A.). More than 2000 years ago specialists on skin diseases from Egypt were invited to Rome for their expertise and knowledge. In the Bible, there are many reports on skin diseases.4 “Leprosy” in the Old Testament probably also includes disorders such as scabies, psoriasis, pellagra, tuberculosis, syphilis and vitiligo.6 Hippocrates (460-377 B.C.) from Greece has been considered to be “the father of the medical science” (Figure A). The intrinsic power of healing of an individual overcomes most diseases. The doctor is only the servant, not the master of nature (“minister non magister naturae”). Hippocrates had high ethical regard for the medical pro- 15 fession (“Officium nobile”). This is seen by the famous “Oath of Hippocrates”, which is still taken after qualifying medical examination. The hospital “Askle- pion” of Hippocrates is on the Greek island of Kos with a view of Turkey. The remnants may still be visited today.4 Several famous names in the history of medicine are Celsus, da Vinci, Para- celsus, Vesalius, Sydenham, Harvey, Virchow, Pasteur, Van Foreest, Semmel- weis, Lister, Boerhaave, Dunant, Fleming, Einthoven, Röntgen, Curie, Osler, Freud, Schweitzer and Kolff. Each of them has influenced the medical science significantly, but the exact contribution made by each is beyond the scope of this thesis.4 One exception is Albert Schweitzer (1875-1965) from the Elzas, who was a physician, theologian, philosopher, historian and a musician. He gave up a brilliant medical career to heal the poor and needy in Lambarene (Gabon in Africa). His basic principle was “the respect for all living things”. In his opinion the vocation for a doctor should be “being beneficial to the health of all patients”, which is still true today.7 G. Mercuriale (1530-1606) of Venice in Italy is credited with writing the first treatise on dermatology in 1572, also considered to be the first systematic

  • Clinical Practice Statements-Oral Contact Allergy
    Clinical Practice Statements-Oral Contact Allergy Subject: Oral Contact Allergy The American Academy of Oral Medicine (AAOM) affirms that oral contact allergy (OCA) is an oral mucosal response that may be associated with materials and substances found in oral hygiene products, common food items, and topically applied agents. The AAOM also affirms that patients with suspected OCA should be referred to the appropriate dental and/or medical health care provider(s) for comprehensive evaluation and management of the condition. Replacement and/or substitution of dental materials should be considered only if (1) a reasonable temporal association has been established between the suspected triggering material and development of clinical signs and/or symptoms, (2) clinical examination supports an association between the suspected triggering material and objective clinical findings, and (3) diagnostic testing (e.g., dermatologic patch testing, skin-prick testing) confirms a hypersensitivity reaction to the suspected offending material. Originators: Dr. Eric T. Stoopler, DMD, FDS RCSEd, FDS RCSEng, Dr. Scott S. De Rossi, DMD. This Clinical Practice Statement was developed as an educational tool based on expert consensus of the American Academy of Oral Medicine (AAOM) leadership.

Email: [email protected] Abstract Background: Nail disorders comprise ~10% of all dermatologic conditions. Nail disorders include those abnormalities that effect any portion of the nail unit. The nail unit includes the plate, matrix, bed, proximal and lateral folds, hyponychium, and some definitions include the underlying distal phalanx. These structures may be effected by heredity, skin disorders, infections, systemic disease, and aging process, internal and external medications, physical and environmental agents, trauma, and tumours, both benign and malignant. The main contributors being papulosquamous disorder. Nail changes in papulosquamous disorder have been inadequately discussed and only limited studies are present. This study aims to throw some light about frequency of nail involvement in papulosquamous disorders and its various patterns. Methodology: This is the descriptive study. It was conducted in department of DVL of Mahadevappa Rampura Medical college and Basaveshwar teaching and general hospital, Kalaburagi from July 2019 to Feb 2021. General, systemic and dermatological examinations were done. Nails were examined in detail. Special investigations like skin biopsy and potassium hydroxide (KOH) mount was done in relevant cases. Results: There were 50 cases of papulosquamous disorder. The most common papulosquamous disorder was psoriasis, followed by lichen planus and PRP. Out of these the most common nail change was pitting (81%) and lest common was dorsal pterygium (%) Conclusion: Nail being an important appendage affecting various dermatosis and acts as window in diagnosis.

Although the vast majority of publications focus on leukoplakia and other potentially malignant lesions, most oral lesions that appear white are benign. This review will focus exclusively on reactive white oral lesions. Included in the discussion are frictional keratoses, irritant contact stomatitis, and smokeless tobacco keratoses. Leukoedema and hereditary genodermatoses that may enter in the clinical differential diagnoses of frictional keratoses including white sponge nevus and hereditary benign intraepithelial dyskeratosis will be reviewed. Many products can result in contact stomatitis. Dentrifice-related stomatitis, contact reactions to amalgam and cinnamon can cause keratotic lesions. Each of these lesions have microscopic findings that can assist in patient management.

  • 1: Oral Mucosa Diseases in Dogs: How Helpful Are The
    Oral mucosal diseases in dogs: How helpful are the fundamentals of dermatopathology? Cynthia M. Bell, MS, DVM, Diplomate ACVP Associate Professor, Kansas State University Manhattan, KS, USA [email protected] The objective of this presentation is to provide a broad overview of stomatitis in dogs, including immune-mediated mucosal and mucocutaneous diseases. There is little emphasis on gingivitis since this condition is so often related to primary dental and periodontal disease. Particular attention is given to regionally extensive or generalized oral mucosal inflammation, with emphasis on distinguishing features that will help the pathologist formulate and rank a differential diagnosis. Oral mucosal diseases in dogs • Plaque-associated stomatitis/CUPS • Immune-mediated/autoimmune diseases o Skin diseases with oral involvement § Pemphigus vulgaris § Mucous membrane pemphigoid § Paraneoplastic pemphigoid § Erythema multiforme § Lupus erythematosus, mostly DLE o Chronic stomatitis • Mucosal drug eruption • Other infectious (Candidiasis, acute viral infection) • Other non-infectious causes (thermal or chemical burn, uremia) • Neoplasia (e.g. epitheliotropic T cell lymphoma) Plaque-associated stomatitis (aka. contact stomatitis, CUPS) The most singular form of stomatitis in dogs has, for the past ~20 years, been referred to as CUPS (canine ulcerative paradental stomatitis). As a disease entity, CUPS was conceived within the clinical setting; therefore, many pathologists may not be aware of or have only a casual familiarity with the syndrome. It is common for dogs to develop oral mucosal ulcerations (“kissing lesions”) at sites of contact—usually where the buccal mucosa and lateral lingual mucosa contacts the larger tooth surfaces (i.e. canine teeth and carnassial teeth). 1 This condition is thought to be an exaggerated immune-mediated inflammatory response to plaque on the tooth surface (“plaque intolerance”), therefore, “plaque associated stomatitis” is a term that is favored by many veterinarians, myself included.

    Vol.33 No.4 Case report 329 Imatinib-induced lichenoid eruption: A case report and a review of literature. Thiraphong Mekwilaiphan MD, Natta Rajatanavin MD. ABSTRACT: MEKWILAIPHAN T, RAJATANAVIN N. IMATINIB-INDUCED LICHENOID ERUPTION: A CASE REPORT AND A REVIEW OF LITERATURE. THAI J DERMATOL 2017;33: 329-335. DIVISION OF DERMATOLOGY, DEPARTMENT OF MEDICINE, FACULTY OF MEDICINE, RAMATHIBODI HOSPITAL, MAHIDOL UNIVERSITY, BANGKOK, THAILAND. Imatinib is the first generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor which consisted of bcr-abl, c-kit, and platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFRs). Its tolerability in the treatment of malignancies is higher than the conventional chemotherapy. However, various adverse cutaneous reactions are the most common side effect of imatinib. Nevertheless, lichenoid eruption is an uncommon cutaneous reaction from imatinib. The clinical manifestation is violaceous, flat-topped papules or plaques involving mainly trunk and extremities. Oral and genital mucosal involvement is a distinctive feature. There were no specific histopathological findings, but usually not a typical characteristic of lichen planus. Due to high prevalence of cutaneous rash, the pathogenesis may be related to pharmacological effect than hypersensitivity reaction. Dosage decrement of imatinib is a choice of treatment, or switch to the second or third generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Acitretin was successfully used to treat imatinib-induced lichenoid eruption in our patient and enabling the continuation of the high imatinib dosage for her hematologic malignancy.
