RESUMEN

Eosinophilic pustular folliculitis (EPF) or Ofuji's disease is a cutaneous inflammatory follicular disorder of unknown etiology. It usually affects adults and is clinically characterized by recurrent crops of sterile and pruritic papulopustules grouped in an annular or polycyclic pattern involving preferably the seborrheic areas. Histopathologic examination reveals eosinophilic follicular abscesses. We report a case of eosinophilic pustular folliculitis in a 21-year-old man who showed pruritic erythematous plaques with follicular papules and pustules on the face, back, upper arms, and thigh. Laboratory test showed blood eosinophilia and histopathologic study revealed numerous eosinophilic infiltration in and around the hair follicle. The patient relatively responded well to dapsone and topical steroid.

RESUMEN

Benign symmetric lipomatosis is characterised by diffuse symmetric deposits of adipose tissue, predominantly on the neck, shoulder, back and upper extremities. We report a case of benign symmetric lipomatosis in a 61-year-old-man, which was first noted one year previously. It began growing rapidly about 3 months ago and was associated with alcoholic liver disease. Histopathological findings showed that the reticular dermis had been replaced by normal uncapsulated mature fat cells that were slightly increased in number in the fibrous connective tissue. He was treated with theophylline 300mg/day for two months.

RESUMEN

Diffuse neonatal hemangiomatosis is a fatal disorder characterired by multiple cutaneous and visceral hemangiomas. The organs most commonly affected are the gastrointestinal tract, brain, liver and lung. The complications are high output cardiac failure, gastrointestinal bleeding and hydrocephalus. We present a patient with diHuse neonatal hemangiomatosis associated with massive hepatic involvement and high output cardiac failure, which was successfully treated with high dose corticosteroid.

RESUMEN

Maffuccis syndrome was first reported by Maffucci, in 1881. This syndrome is manifested by multiple enchondromas and hemangiomas, characterized by non-hereditary mesenchymal neoplasia that has a propensity for malignant transformation. Involvement of long bones, particularly the bones of the hands and feet, is most common. The most important complication of this syndrome is the high frequency of chondr osarcomatous metaplasia. We report a case of Maffuccis syndrome in a 56-year-old woman with multiple hemangioma on both the hands and forearms, left foot and enchondromas of multiple bones. The disease started at the age of 8 and was associated with deformity, but malignant transformation was not found.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: As co-factors of metalloenzymes, zinc(Zn) and copper(Cu) have a considerable effect on nearly all the metabolism that takes place in organs of the body, including the skin. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate zinc and copper status in alopecia areata patients. METHODS: We measured serum levels of zinc and copper in 30 cases of alopecia areata patients and 10 normal individuals by atomic absorption spectrometry. Furthermore, we studied the significance of the ratio between serum levels of the two metals. RESULTS: The serum levels of zinc were significantly lower in alopecia areata patients than in healthy controls. The serum levels of copper were slightly lower in alopecia areata patients than in healthy controls. Ratios of Cu/Zn were slightly higher in alopecia areata patients than in healthy controls. But their differences were not statistically significant. CONCLUSION: We suggest that a serum Zn assay should be included in the chemical assessment of patients with alopecia areata.
