However, little is known about emergency medicine (EM) providers’ experiences and knowledge of HS management. Methods: In this study, an anonymous survey was distributed to EM providers to identify knowledge and practice gaps in HS care. Results: The results showed that most respondents lacked confidence in HS diagnosis and management, especially in knowing available treatment options and managing patients with moderate to severe HS. Attendings were more confident than non-attendings in diagnosing and managing HS, and providers who saw more HS patients per month were more confident in referring patients to appropriate specialists. Over 80% of respondents referred HS patients to dermatology, which is an important initial step in HS management. Conclusion: The study highlights the importance of educating EM providers in HS recognition, timely referral to dermatology, and initial management to improve quality of life among patients and mitigate disease progression.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"112 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138623066","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}

However, the occurrence of PA as a consequence of leukaemia cutis has not been previously reported. Case Report: A 32-year-old man with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL) presented with severe scalp scaling and hair loss for 2 months. Examination revealed extensive, tightly adherent scales encircling and binding down hairs, along with haemorrhagic crusts. Skin examination showed nontender, partially blanchable papules forming ill-defined plaques, giving a cobblestone appearance. Trichoscopy revealed white crusts, tufting, and micro-haemorrhages. Scalp biopsy confirmed precursor B-ALL infiltration. He was diagnosed with PA with secondary cutis verticis gyrata due to leukaemia cutis and referred to a haemato-oncologist for further management. Discussion: Leukaemia cutis is a rare condition where leukaemia cells infiltrate the skin, often associated with acute myeloid leukaemia and ALL. It can lead to secondary verticis gyrata. The co-occurrence of PA and cutis verticis gyrata is rare and previously unreported, highlighting the need for increased awareness among clinicians.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"176 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139226075","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}

Presenting more frequently in the fingernails, common risk factors include ionizing radiation, oral exposure to arsenic or pesticides, dyskeratosis congenita, and quite commonly diverse subtypes of HPV. We report the first case of multiple periungual pigmented Bowen’s disease in a pediatric patient. Case Presentation: A healthy 13-year-old boy presented with a 9-month history of a pigmented erythematous patch on the proximal nail fold of his 3rd right finger without associated symptoms. A punch biopsy was taken, and the diagnosis of Bowen’s disease was made. The patient received photodynamic therapy and three cycles of imiquimod without response, and two new lesions appeared on the first and second right fingers. Surgical removal was performed on all lesions. A polymerase chain reaction detected an HPV type 16. Discussion/Conclusion: Multiple periungual Bowen’s disease is rare, with the most frequent risk factors being HPV infection and chronic immunosuppression. Less than 10% of the cases present as longitudinal melanonychia. To date, there are no previous reports of multiple pigmented periungual Bowen’s disease. HPV-induced Bowen’s disease is usually present in adults aged between 22 and 89 years as persistent verrucae. In this case, koilocytosis and the fact that all lesions appeared on the right hand are suggestive of HPV infection.","PeriodicalId":21844,"journal":{"name":"Skin Appendage Disorders","volume":"56 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139257979","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}

The aim of this study was to analyze the time required for HS diagnosis and investigate factors associated with diagnostic delay. Method: A retrospective observational study was conducted based on clinical records from HS patients followed at a tertiary hospital, with diagnosis between January 2006 and December 2022. Results: A total of 285 patients were included. The mean diagnostic delay was 10.1 years, and there was no difference in time to diagnosis during the considered period. A diagnostic delay of more than 5 years was significantly associated with an earlier onset of symptoms, location on breasts and thighs, follicular phenotype, and with cardiovascular and psychiatric comorbidities. Smoking and body mass index ≥25 kg/m2 were also associated with a longer diagnostic delay. A personal history of acne and a greater disease severity were associated with an earlier diagnosis.
