We report here the 5th case of Subcutaneous extravasation of intravenous (IV) acyclovir in a patient hospitalized for herpes zoster cruris, causing skin necrosis on day 4 of her hospitalization and leaving a residual scar. Early recognition of extravasation and prompt management are essential to prevent additional morbidity and optimize outcomes.","PeriodicalId":198042,"journal":{"name":"Our Dermatology Online","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117250013","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They sit electively on the face, mainly on the nasolabial folds, forehead, chin, and cheeks, and sometimes on the scalp and neck. Trichoepitheliomas may be divided into three subgroups: multiple familial trichoepitheliomas, solitary non-hereditary trichoepitheliomas, and desmoplastic trichoepitheliomas. Non-familial multiple trichoepitheliomas are rarely described.

Information available on this disease is mainly based on foreign studies. We observed the clinical characteristics of this disease among our population to fill the shortage of information. Materials and Methods: It was a hospital-based, cross-sectional, descriptive study conducted at the Department of Dermatology from July 2022 to March 2023. Patients diagnosed with CU were enrolled in this study after obtaining ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee (IRC). The calculated sample size was 123. Sociodemographic features and clinical characteristics were recorded after taking consent from the patients. A descriptive analysis was performed and presented in frequency tables. Results: The majority (61%) had chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), 13.8% had chronic inducible urticaria (CINDU), and 25.2% had both CSU and CINDU. The mean age of participants was 35.86 ± 13.45 years. Females comprised 72.4% of the patients. A family history of urticaria was found in 16.2% of patients. The mean disease duration was 35.88 ± 60.2 months. Wheals occurred in the evening in 24.3% of cases. Angioedema was reported by 18.6% of the patients. Gastritis was the most common (11.4%) comorbidity. Physical factors precipitated urticaria in 39% of cases. Recurrence of the disease was seen in 17.8%. Prior to visiting the dermatologist, 76.4% had been taking antihistamines and 15% attempting an alternative medicine. Conclusion: Our findings were consistent with those of previous reports. CSU is more than three times more common than CINDU. Females and young adults were more affected by CU. Concomitant CSU and CINDU is also possible. As a chronic condition, it is often difficult to manage, and patients tend to explore alternative options.

A skin biopsy was performed, revealing orthokeratotic hyperkeratosis sinking into the follicular orifices dilated by sebum clumps with basal vacuolation associated with a subepidermal and periadnexal/perivascular lymphocyte band infiltrate. Direct immunofluorescence staining for immunoglobulin M was positive. The diagnosis of lupus comedones was retained, and the patient was put on topical tacrolimus 0.1% twice a day.
