Mixed vascular naevus syndrome: report of three children with somatic GNA11 mutation and new systemic associations.

Mixed vascular naevus (MVN) is characterized by the co-occurrence of telangiectatic capillary malformation and naevus anaemicus, which can appear as a pure cutaneous phenotype or be combined with systemic manifestations such as brain malformations, neurological abnormalities and musculoskeletal disorders. Recently, GNA11 and GNAQ somatic mutations have been reported in some patients with isolated and syndromic MVN. We report three children with MVN syndrome with generalized cutaneous manifestations and a number of systemic associations not reported to date, including ophthalmological anomalies, musculoskeletal abnormalities such as Sprengel deformity and posterior vertebral fusion anomalies, and septal heart defects. We also confirm a somatic mutation of GNA11 in both telangiectatic naevus and naevus anaemicus in two of our patients and discuss a possible common pathogenic mechanism underlying the different manifestations of the syndrome. Currently, there are no guidelines for the evaluation of patients with MVN syndrome, but according to the different known aspects of the disease, a complete clinical examination should be made, and complementary laboratory and imaging tests should be considered.

Múltiples úlceras perianales en relación con el uso de una pomada antihemorroidal con acetónido de triamcinolona, lidocaína y pentosano polisulfato sódico como principios activos: una serie de 11 pacientes españoles / Multiple Perianal Ulcers Related to Use of a Hemorrhoidal Ointment With the Active Ingredients Triamcinolone Acetonide, Lidocaine, and Pentosan Polysulfate Sodium: A Series of 11 Spanish Patients

La aparición de úlceras perianales en relación con una pomada antihemorroidal es una condición nunca antes reportada en la literatura. Presentamos una serie de 11 casos de 10 hospitales españoles con diagnóstico de úlceras perianales tras la aplicación de una misma pomada antihemorroidal con acetónido de triamcinolona, lidocaína y pentosano polisulfato sódico como principios activos. No se ha podido identificar ninguna condición previa o enfermedad concomitante que pudiera justificar un diagnóstico etiológico alternativo y tras retirar la pomada antihemorroidal se ha evidenciado una resolución completa de las úlceras en un periodo medio de 8 semanas. Esta serie de casos evidencia el potencial efecto dañino de un producto farmacéutico no sujeto a prescripción ni seguimiento médico y la necesidad de interrogar por el uso de agentes tópicos ante la aparición de úlceras perianales (AU)

The development of perianal ulcers related to the use of a hemorrhoidal ointment has not been reported in the literature. We describe a series of 11 patients who were treated for perianal ulcers in 10 Spanish hospitals after they used the same ointment containing the active ingredients triamcinolone acetonide, lidocaine, and pentosan polysulfate sodium. No prior or concomitant conditions suggesting an alternative cause for the condition could be identified, and after the patients stopped using the ointment, their ulcers cleared completely in 8 weeks on average. This case series shows the damage that can be caused by an over-the-counter pharmaceutical product used without medical follow-up. It also illustrates the need to ask patients with perianal ulcers about any topical agents used before the lesions appeared (AU)

Ampollas inducidas por PUVA. Presentación de 5 casos / Blisters Induced by PUVA: A Report of 5 Cases

Las ampollas secundarias al tratamiento con PUVA son un efecto secundario de la fotoquimioterapia poco descrito en la literatura científica. Se caracteriza por la aparición espontánea de ampollas asintomáticas localizadas fundamentalmente en los miembros inferiores, que se resuelven sin necesidad de tratamiento. El diagnóstico diferencial debe plantearse con una reacción fototóxica, con la pseudoporfiria y con el penfigoide ampolloso inducido por PUVA. Presentamos 5 casos de ampollas secundarias a la terapia PUVA, con el objetivo de dar a conocer las características clínicas e histológicas de dicha entidad. Su correcto diagnóstico evitará la interrupción del tratamiento, así como la realización de procedimientos diagnósticos y terapéuticos innecesarios

Blíster associated with PUVA treatments are an adverse effect of photochemotherapy that has been reported in the literature. Asymptomatic blisters appear spontaneously mainly on the lower limbs and resolve without treatment. The differential diagnoses to consider include a phototoxic reaction, pseudoporphyria, and PUVA-induced bullous pemphigoid. We describe the clinical and histologic features in 5 cases of blistering secondary to PUVA treatment. If this adverse effect is accurately diagnosed, photochemotherapy need not be interrupted, and unnecessary diagnostic procedures and additional treatments can be avoided
