摘要
背景:在迅速扩大的抗衰老市场中,外用维生素 E 因其抗氧化特性而被广泛使用。维生素 E 引起的皮肤反应非常罕见,而且很难诊断:我们报告了一例独特的病例:一名 46 岁的女性在使用微钉滚筒局部涂抹维生素 E 油后,下巴出现了严重的皮肤炎症性病变。临床检查发现了一个易碎和发霉的肿块,因怀疑是恶性肿瘤而进行了活检。病理检查排除了恶性肿瘤的可能性,发现慢性炎症伴有黄疽样特征:结果:经过 18 个月的凯纳洛注射治疗,病变明显好转。疤痕切除术进一步改善了病变的外观:本病例凸显了维生素 E 皮肤反应的罕见性和临床多样性,以及模仿恶性肿瘤的可能性。
Unsuspected Malignant Mimicry From Topical Vitamin E and Micro Spike Roller.
Background: Topical vitamin E is commonly used for its antioxidant properties in a rapidly expanding anti-aging market. Cutaneous reaction to vitamin E is rare and can present a difficult diagnosis.
Methods: We report a unique case of a 46-year-old female who developed a severe cutaneous inflammatory chin lesion after topical use of vitamin E oil with a micro-spike roller. Clinical examination found a friable and fungating mass which prompted biopsy due to suspected malignancy. Pathology ruled out malignancy and revealed chronic inflammation with xanthogranulomatous-like features.
Results: The lesion was significantly improved with Kenalog injection treatment over 18 months. A scar excision procedure further enhanced the lesion cosmetically.
Conclusions: This case highlights the rarity and clinical diversity of vitamin E skin reactions, and their potential to mimic malignancies.
