This study evaluates the dermoscopic features of IGH and their correlation with histopathological findings.Methods: In the present study, 100 patients with IGH were evaluated. Each patient underwent a comprehensive clinical history assessment along with a dermatological and physical examination. Dermoscopic examination was performed, followed by a histopathological examination to confirm the diagnosis.Results: The mean age of the participants was 64.67 ± 9.59 years, with 53% being male. The most prevalent dermoscopic pattern observed was nebuloid (33.3%), followed by petaloid (26.7%), and both amoeboid and feathery patterns were seen in equal proportions (20% each). The abdomen (33%) and legs (27%) were the most common sites for IGH lesions. Histopathological examination revealed features such as basket weave hyperkeratosis, atrophic epidermis in some lesions, reduced melanin globules or melanocytes, skip lesions, and flattening of rete ridges across all dermoscopic patterns.Conclusion: IGH is characterized by distinct dermoscopic patterns, including amoeboid, feathery, nebuloid, and petaloid types. When these patterns are interpreted within the clinical context and corroborated with histopathological findings, they aid in the accurate diagnosis of IGH and its differentiation from other hypopigmented and depigmented dermatoses. Dermoscopy can be considered an adjunctive tool to confirm the diagnosis of IGH.","PeriodicalId":45914,"journal":{"name":"Acta Dermatovenerologica Alpina Pannonica et Adriatica","volume":"33 3","pages":"119-124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142356091","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 prevalence is highest among dark-skinned younger females residing in tropical and subtropical regions. There are very few reports of ALP across Europe, with most of the cases among individuals living in warm countries or in people of Middle Eastern and Indian ancestry. We report a case of a 68-year-old white man that presented with a 9-year history of a mildly pruritic solitary hyperpigmented patch on the tip of his nose. Histopathological examination demonstrated signs of classic LP with epidermal atrophy, pigmentary incontinence, and signs of solar elastosis. Based on these findings, a diagnosis of pigmented ALP was established. Topical pimecrolimus and tretinoin along with rigorous photoprotection proved effective, with mild residual hyperpigmentation after 6 months of treatment. Many differential diagnostic possibilities should be considered for such a lesion. Nevertheless, a biopsy and correlation of histopathological and clinical findings can shorten the time from onset to a proper diagnosis. Treating both the hyperpigmented and inflammatory component of this dermatosis is necessary, as well as strict long-term photoprotection to prevent recurrences.","PeriodicalId":45914,"journal":{"name":"Acta Dermatovenerologica Alpina Pannonica et Adriatica","volume":"33 3","pages":"159-162"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142120853","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}

Mutations in this gene lead to an alteration in function or reduced amounts of collagen VII. This alteration of collagen VII leads to skin fragility and lesions at minor injuries with difficult healing. Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is more frequent in patients with RDEB than in the general population because of chronic wound formation; it constitutes a major cause of morbidity and is often cited as a cause of death for these patients. There is little experience with the treatment of cSCC in patients with RDEB. We report the case of a 19-year-old female patient with RDBE and inoperable locally advanced cSCC of the left arm. Because of the lack of therapy options, therapy with cemiplimab was started at a dose of 350 mg administered intravenously every 3 weeks. A confirmed clinical response was observed after the second cycle of treatment with no toxicity. During follow-up, the patient had a notable clinical response with no auto-immune adverse reactions.

Interleukin (IL)-31 has been implicated in the development of pruritus and skin inflammation, potentially contributing to cutaneous symptoms. This study measures IL-31 levels in vitiligo patients with and without pruritus, comparing them to healthy controls, and explores the relationship between IL-31 levels, disease activity, and other clinical factors to assess its potential role in the early diagnosis of vitiligo.Methods: Ninety individuals were enrolled in the study and equally divided into three groups: vitiligo, vitiligo with pruritus, and healthy controls. The serum level of IL-31 was measured using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results: Significant differences in IL-31 levels were observed across all groups. IL-31 levels were highest in vitiligo patients with pruritus, followed by those without pruritus, and lowest in healthy controls, with mean values and standard deviations of 196 ± 67.28, 152.10 ± 74.39, and 80.03 ± 32.30 pg/ml, respectively. In addition, IL-31 levels in serum showed significant differences in relation to disease activity in both vitiligo groups. Positive correlations were found between IL-31 levels and the Vitiligo Area Scoring Index (VASI) and Vitiligo Disease Activity (VIDA) in both patient groups, as well as between IL-31 levels and lesion extent in vitiligo patients without pruritus. In patients with pruritus, IL-31 levels also positively correlated with age and the 5-dimension itch scale score.Conclusion: IL-31 may serve as a crucial marker and play a significant role in the early diagnosis of vitiligo in patients both with and without pruritus.","PeriodicalId":45914,"journal":{"name":"Acta Dermatovenerologica Alpina Pannonica et Adriatica","volume":"33 3","pages":"111-116"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142356088","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}

These peptides are generated by epithelial cells, keratinocytes, and macrophages, mainly in response to interactions with microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, and fungi) or the influence of various pro-inflammatory cytokines. Human β-defensin (HBD) 2 plays an indirect role in allergic reactions by promoting mast cell activation and degranulation. In dermatological and allergic conditions, the role of HBD2 has been well documented. Although HBD2 is predominantly produced in keratinocytes, along with HBD3 it has also been detected in serum. Elevated serum levels of HBD2 have been observed in patients with skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. In addition, HBD2 is significant in chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), in which urticarial skin lesions can be triggered by infections. Notably, CSU is often accompanied by angioedema, which may be related to HBD2 because patients with CSU and associated angioedema have higher serum HBD2 levels compared to those without angioedema. Current evidence suggests that HBD2 could serve as a marker of inflammation and may have potential therapeutic applications. However, due to limited data on HBD2 levels and its expression in the skin of patients with allergic skin diseases, further research is needed to elucidate the underlying causes and mechanisms of elevated HBD2 levels in these conditions.","PeriodicalId":45914,"journal":{"name":"Acta Dermatovenerologica Alpina Pannonica et Adriatica","volume":"33 3","pages":"135-139"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142356086","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}
