Abstract

Herpes zoster is often associated with neurological manifestation but less frequently associated with motoric nerve involvement. The most common motoric involvement is paresis, seen only in 1-5% of all zoster cases. This case report a 39-year-old male, with recurrent abdominal liposarcoma under chemotherapy, presented with symptoms of fever, and painful and weak right leg for 2 weeks. Vesicles eruption was seen on his right leg nine days after these symptoms occurred. Physical examination revealed groups of haemorrhagic vesicles with erythematous base on the right lower leg. Lumbosacral spine x-ray showed spondylosis with radiculopathy. Electromyography (EMG) examination revealed lower motor neuron total denervation corresponding to right L5 radix. The patient was diagnosed as herpes zoster on right L5-S1 segment, herpetic neuralgia, and segmental zoster paresis with recurrent liposarcoma under chemotherapy. He was treated with oral acyclovir 800 mg five times a day and gabapentin 300 mg twice a day. Physical therapy and rehabilitation were started concurrently. Paresis is a rare complication of herpes zoster. Radicular pain and weakness preceded the skin lesion potentially lead to misdiagnoses. The most frequent diagnosis for patient suffering pain and weakness in the extremities is spinal disorder, such as stenosis and disc herniation. EMG can be helpful to recognise motoric involvement of herpes zoster, and preclude other diagnoses.

Abstract

Lentigo maligna (LM) is a subtype of melanoma in situ, which can evolve into lentigo maligna melanoma (LMM) if treated inadequately. LM and LMM are usually found on chronically sun damaged skin such as the face (cheek and nose) of the elderly on seventh or eight decades. Clinical manifestation of LM may be quite subtle, so early diagnosis is difficult to perform.The treatment of LM and LMM are challenging due to ill-defined clinical margin, predilection on the face with great size, and preponderance of the elderly, which are potential for recurrency and progressiveness from LM into LMM.

Abstract

Background: Abnormalities of pigmentation is a cosmetic problem which affects the overall appearance of an individual. Pigmentation disorder are caused by the increase (hypermelanosis) or the decrease (hypomelanosis) amount of melanin. Objective: To determine the pattern of pigmentation disorder in Cosmetic Dermatology Clinic H. Adam Malik General Hospital Medan in 2012-2015. Methods: A retrospective study using subject's medical records from the Cosmetic Dermatology Clinic H. Adam Malik General Hospital Medan in 2012 - 2015, presented descriptively. Results: In 2012 - 2015 the number of patients who visited the Cosmetic Dermatology Clinic were respectively 210, 228, 211, 142. Hypermelanosis were found respectively in 24.76%, 16.20%, 12.79%, 5.63%. Whereas hypomelanosis were found 18.10%, 9.21%, 8.53%, 8.45%. During 2012 - 2015 melasma was the most common disorder found among hypermelanosis group, followed by post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Meanwhile vitiligo was the only diagnosis in hypomelanosis group. Each year most of the pigmentation disorder patients came from the age group 38-48 years old except in 2015. Women were more affected than men. Conclusion: In 2012-2014, the largest proportion of pigmentation disorder were hypermelanosis, mostly melasma. In 2015, it was hypomelanosis with vitiligo as the diagnosis.

Abstract

Background: Onychomycosis may cause nail discoloration, thickening, nail bed separation, and other serious complications. For some cases, oral antifungal treatment is not tolerable because of its potential side effects and drug interactions. Laser therapy is considered as an alternative treatment, owing to the features of simple and effective, with only minor potential side effects. This EBCR was made to collect and appraise studies regarding the effectiveness of laser therapy for onychomycosis, and to suggest laser as an alternative treatment. Methods: Literature searching strategy was performed using Pubmed and Cochrane Library database to address the clinical problem. Keywords used were “laser” AND “onychomycosis”. Results: Seventy-nine articles were obtained from the search strategy procedure. After selection based on exclusion and inclusion criteria, and full-text availability, four relevant articles remained. Discussion: The study by Xu et al. was considered as the most valid study while compared to other three studies. This study used intention to treat analysis and had no loss of follow-up patients. Xu et al. compared mycological and clinical clearance rate between patients receiving laser, oral terbinafine, or combination of those two. It showed that laser therapy was less effective when compared to oral antifungal (Number Needed to Harm = 17). Conclusions: Laser has a lower level of effectiveness while compared to oral terbinafine as the current gold standard therapy for onychomycosis. However, laser therapy can still be used as an adjunctive therapy along with oral antifungal to achieve a better cure rate. More studies are needed to prove this hypothesis.

Abstract

Background: Onychomycosis is a fungal infection of the nails, which manifested as nail discoloration, thickening, and detachment from the nail bed. It is not life-threatening, however inappropriate treatment of onychomycosis might lead to complications and affect the patient’s quality of life; making the management of the disease a challenge for clinicians. Objective: Investigate the efficacy of pulse-dosed oral terbinafine combined with topical 8% ciclopirox olamine to treat onychomycosis. Methods: Literature search was performed in Pubmed and Cochrane databases using the keywords 'combination' AND 'oral terbinafine' AND 'ciclopirox' AND ‘onychomycosis treatment’ along with their synonyms and related terms. Results and Discussion: After critical appraisal, studies by Avner et al. and Jaiswal et al. found to be valid, important, and applicable to the patient. The first study found that oral terbinafine combined with topical 8% ciclopirox olamine is more effective and safe compared to terbinafine as a monotherapy (p<0.05). The second study found similar results, but without statistical significance (p>0.05). Conclusions: Oral terbinafine combined with topical 8% ciclopirox olamine is more effective than monotherapy, despite statistical irrelevance in one of the studies appraised. Further studies are needed to support the implementation of combination therapy.

Abstract

Vitamin D has many benefits for body and skin health. One of them is to regulate the immune system, both cellular and humoral. The pathogenesis of many skin diseases is associated with disturbance in regulation of cellular immune system. Research on the relationship between blood level of vitamin D and several diseases in dermatology is currently very advanced. Oral vitamin D is known to have many functions that play a role in the pathogenesis of several diseases of the skin. Therefore, its current use as a primary or supplemental therapy has been widely studied. Knowledge on various skin diseases with indication of oral vitamin D use is important to be understood, especially in association with some chronic diseases requiring long-term therapy. The effects of using oral vitamin D analogues are minimal, but hypervitaminosis D might cause uncomfortable symptoms for patients. Therefore, it is important to understand and regulate the amount of doses of oral vitamin D supplements prescribed.
