ABSTRACT
Generalized sterile pustular eruptions occur in various dermatoses including pustular psoriasis, erythema multiforme, Sneddon-Wilkinsan disease and others. Recentlr, acute eruptions of disseminated sterile pustules have been reported. The etiology is not related to a gepetic predisposition to psoriasis but to drug ingestion or viral infections, thus termed toxic pustuloderm; (T. P.). In this report, we present a typical case of T. P. observed iu our department. Our patient, an 18-year-old male, with no personal or family history of psoriasis, was given drug medication including amoxicillin for fever and chilling sensation. Pustilar eruptions first, appeared on his face about two days aft.er the medication and gradually spread to the trunk and limbs. The skin examination revealed numerous small pustules on an erythematous base. Laboratory examination revealed neutrophilic leukocytosis and an elevated sedimentation rate skin biopsy showed subeorneal and spongiform neutrophilic pustules Upon interruption of the amoxicillin, the pustules cleared rapidly in 3 days and there has been ri.o recui rence of any rash over a 7-month follow-up period.
