Prurigo pigmentosa in an African-Canadian patient: Expanding the limited literature on skin of color.
Prurigo pigmentosa is a rare inflammatory dermatosis that predominantly affects East Asian populations, with very few reported cases in individuals with darker skin tones. The condition is characterized by pruritic, erythematous papules that evolve into a distinct, net-like pattern of hyperpigmentation. Due to its rarity in non-Asian populations, prurigo pigmentosa is often underdiagnosed or misclassified as other hyperpigmented dermatoses. We present the case of a 33-year-old African-Canadian woman who developed prurigo pigmentosa following prolonged fasting, contributing to the limited literature on this condition in skin of color. This report aims to raise awareness of prurigo pigmentosa in underrepresented populations.
期刊介绍:
SAGE Open Medical Case Reports (indexed in PubMed Central) is a peer reviewed, open access journal. It aims to provide a publication home for short case reports and case series, which often do not find a place in traditional primary research journals, but provide key insights into real medical cases that are essential for physicians, and may ultimately help to improve patient outcomes. SAGE Open Medical Case Reports does not limit content due to page budgets or thematic significance. Papers are subject to rigorous peer review and are selected on the basis of whether the research is sound and deserves publication. By virtue of not restricting papers to a narrow discipline, SAGE Open Medical Case Reports facilitates the discovery of the connections between papers, whether within or between disciplines. Case reports can span the full spectrum of medicine across the health sciences in the broadest sense, including: Allergy/Immunology Anaesthesia/Pain Cardiovascular Critical Care/ Emergency Medicine Dentistry Dermatology Diabetes/Endocrinology Epidemiology/Public Health Gastroenterology/Hepatology Geriatrics/Gerontology Haematology Infectious Diseases Mental Health/Psychiatry Nephrology Neurology Nursing Obstetrics/Gynaecology Oncology Ophthalmology Orthopaedics/Rehabilitation/Occupational Therapy Otolaryngology Palliative Medicine Pathology Pharmacoeconomics/health economics Pharmacoepidemiology/Drug safety Psychopharmacology Radiology Respiratory Medicine Rheumatology/ Clinical Immunology Sports Medicine Surgery Toxicology Urology Women''s Health.
