Título: | Pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta: case report and review of the literature | Autor: | Pereira, Neide Brinca, Ana Manuel Brites, Maria José Julião, Maria Tellechea, Óscar Gonçalo, Margarida |
Palavras-chave: | Pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta; Erythromycin; Methylprednisolone | Data: | Jan-2012 | Editora: | Karger | Título da revista, periódico, livro ou evento: | Case Reports in Dermatology | Volume: | 4 | Número: | 1 | Resumo: | We report a case of a 63-year-old man hospitalized for a polymorphous generalized eruption consisting of maculopapules with peripheral scaling, vesicopustules, and ulceronecrotic and crusted lesions measuring 5-20 mm, localized on his trunk and extremities, particularly exuberant in the flexural area. Histopathology showed necrotic keratinocytes with exocytosis of red blood cells and lymphocytes and a dermal perivascular and periadnexal inflammatory infiltrate, composed of CD8+/CD4-/CD30- T cells, indicating the clinical diagnosis of pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta. He was treated with erythromycin and methylprednisolone reduced gradually over 5 months, with a slow but complete response; the patient was without lesions after 2 years of follow-up. The authors want to remind of this rare entity which may present difficulties in diagnosis and therapy. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10316/109849 | ISSN: | 1662-6567 | DOI: | 10.1159/000337745 | Direitos: | openAccess |
