E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Students of skin diseases have long noted a variety of disease responses and non-responses to trauma and the presence of structural abnormalities. This article will review the series of these responses including: Koebner phenomenon, Wolf isotopic response, Renbök response, Koebner nonreaction, isotopic nonreaction, and other related skin reactions. Because most of these reported phenomena have similar morphological features the diagnosis is often made on the basis of differences in the clinical presentation. Note that some of the cutaneous reactions of similar phenomena have been described using varied nomenclature, further adding to the confusion.

  • Koebner Phenomenon Leading to the Formation of New Psoriatic Lesions: Evidences and Mechanisms
    Bioscience Reports (2019) 39 BSR20193266 https://doi.org/10.1042/BSR20193266 Review Article Koebner phenomenon leading to the formation of new psoriatic lesions: evidences and mechanisms Yong-Zhi Ji and Shi-Rui Liu Department of Dermatology, Second Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, China Correspondence: Shi-Rui Liu ([email protected]) Koebner phenomenon refers to the emergence of new psoriatic lesions in the healthy skin re- gions following an injury/trauma to psoriatic patients. The occurrence of psoriatic lesions at unusual areas of the body regions such as on penis, around eyes and on keloids suggest that the Koebner phenomenon may be responsible for these lesions. A number of agents/triggers have been reported to induce the development of new psoriatic lesions in healthy skin ar- eas and these include, tattooing skin, radiations, skin incision, viral infections and striae etc. The different mechanisms that contribute in inducing the development of new psoriatic lesions as Koebernization include the involvement of mast cell-derived inflammatory medi- ators such as tryptase, IL-6, IL-8, IL-17, and IL-36γ. Moreover, an increased expression of nerve growth factor (NGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) also contribute in Koebernization. Apart from these, there is a critical role of α 2 β1 integrins, S100A7 (psori- asin) and S100A15 (koebnerisin), change in the ratio of CD4+/CD8+ T cells, down-regulation of mechanosensitive polycystin 1 protein, decrease in inflammation controlling atypical chemokine receptor 2 (ACKR2), reduced expression of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) re- ceptors (NMDARs) on the keratinocytes and increase in levels of chemokines (CXCL8 and CCL20) in inducing formation of new psoriatic lesions.

The case of a 27-year-old male patient with scalp psoriasis who was referred to our clinic for generalized psoriatic lesions developed two weeks after tattooing his skin at the age of 18 was presented; the case illustrated the possibility of Koebner phenomenon induced by skin tattooing in patients with psoriasis. Keywords: Koebner phenomenon, isomorphic phenomenon, koebnerization, psoriatic lesions, tattoos Introduction Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with an increased epidermal proliferation and it is usually characterized by erythematous, sharp-bordered lesions with silvery scale that can occur in various sites of the body. Although many different factors can trigger the appearance of psoriatic lesions, a certain cause has not yet been established [1]. In patients with this condition, de novo psoriatic lesions often occur at the site of cutaneous trauma. The appearance of these isomorphic lesions is known as the Koebner phenomenon and it occurs in about 25% of people with psoriasis after various traumatic injuries, including tattooing [2]. Case report A 27-year-old patient was referred to our clinic with erythematosus scaly plaques, disseminated on scalp, trunk and upper limbs.

Abstract Backgrounds: Vitiligo is a pigmentary disorder characterized by depigmentation and absence of melanocyte. It occurs in 0.5-1% of the population and commonly associated with Koebner phenomenon. Koebner phenomenon which is the occurrence of new lesions at site of injury has been described in several dermatoses including vitiligo. It could serve as a useful diagnostic aid and sometimes influence approach to the management of vitiligo when considering surgical intervention. Case report: We report a 64 year old Nigerian who had progressive depigmentation on the scalp, face and palms of 1 year duration. He had prior scaly rashes for eight years which are distributed over the seborrheic areas.
