Abstract

Background: Skin aging is a complex biological process influenced by intrinsic and extrinsic factors. In addition, national data regarding skin aging is still scant. This research was carried out to learn the characteristics of skin aging at the Dermatology and Venereology outpatient unit of Prof. Dr. I G. N. G. Ngoerah General Hospital, Denpasar, in January-December 2019. Methods: This research is a quantitative descriptive study with a cross-sectional design. Sampling was carried out by total sampling with research subjects consisting of skin-aging patients at the Dermatology and Venereology Outpatient Unit of Prof. dr. I G. N. G. Ngoerah General Hospital in January-December 2019. The data collected consists of age, gender, smoking history, alcohol consumption history, body mass index, usage of sunscreen, duration of sun exposure, and Glogau scale classification. Descriptive analysis was carried out using SPSS ver. 23. Results: Twenty cases of skin aging were included. Most cases of skin aging were in the age group of 36-45 years old, all of whom were female, all of whom had no history of smoking, all of whom had no history of alcohol consumption, most body mass index classification was overweight, most do not use sunscreen, the duration of the sun exposure is mostly 30 minutes-6 hours, and the highest classification of the Glogau scale is group III. Conclusion: In this study, body mass index, usage of sunscreen, and duration of sun exposure are the main factors affecting skin aging.

Abstract

Introduction: Steatocystoma multiplex (SM) suppurativa is an inflammatory variant of SM, a benign hamartomatous disorder of pilosebaceous unit that usually occurs in early adulthood. Treatment responses are often disappointing due to widespread lesions and late diagnosis. This case report aimed to describe a male diagnosed with SM suppurativa to increase the knowledge and management of SM suppurativa. Case: A 23-year-old male came with multiple lumps on his neck, chest, back, and extremities over the last four years. On dermatological examination, yellow to skin-colored papules, nodules, and cysts, 0.3 to 2 cm in diameter, were observed with erythematous-to-hyperpigmented macules and scars over the lesions. Histopathological examination of the lesion showed cysts with pilosebaceous-like lining and sebaceous glands adhered to the cyst’s wall. The patient diagnosed with steatocystoma multiplex SM suppurativa was treated only with a topical antibiotic and corticosteroid. Discussions: Although the histopathological findings showed pathognomonic findings for SM, SM suppurativa was established as the working diagnosis based on the clinical and dermoscopic findings of inflammatory lesions. The biopsy of noninflammatory lesions might cause no sign of inflammation in the histopathological findings. Conclusions: Dermoscopic findings showed a yellow structureless area with diffuse erythematous borders and histopathological findings of a pilosebaceous-like layer with sebaceous glands adhering to the cyst wall and chronic inflammation is the hallmark of SM suppurativa.

Abstract

Background: Leprosy reaction is an acute inflammatory of leprosy complication that potentially cause disability. Prompt and appropriate treatment is needed to prevent this permanent neurological complication. As inflammation of this reaction is mediated by cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), therefore targeting this substance may potential to prevent disability. This systematic review aimed to define COX-2 as a potential target of intervention in leprosy reaction. Method: Medline, Cochrane library, PubMed, and Google scholar databases were searched for articles published at any time. Observational study and clinical trial, comparative, prospective, retrospective, and descriptive study were extracted, analyzed, and discussed. Results: We found 6 studies that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, with 104 participants with leprosy reactions and 143 comparators included in this review. In leprosy reactions, COX-2 expression was found in the vessels and nerves of the dermis and subcutis. Macrophages are cell mostly abundantly expressing COX-2. The COX-2 expression was found higher in the leprosy reaction compare to the non-leprosy reaction. Genetically, genes PTGS2 and TNFAIP6 encode COX-2 production also tend to increase especially in type 1 reaction. Conclusions: Preclinically and genetically, COX-2 is a potential target for intervention of leprosy reaction.

Abstract

Background: Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is a skin inflammation caused by a type 4 delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction. One of the most common types of ACD is shoe dermatitis, characterized by pruritic or painful bilateral and symmetrical erythema, papules, vesicles, scaling, crusting, lichenification, or fissures at the site of footwear contact. Case series: We present seven patients with allergic contact dermatitis caused by rubber flip-flop sandals who presented with acute to chronic eczema and leukoderma. Patients range in age from 4 to 65 years old, with symptoms lasting from 5 months to 2 years. Two of the seven patients had a history of atopy. Conclusion: Flip-flop sandals are the most common offending footwear in Indonesian ACD patients because they are appropriate and comfortable in hot and humid climates like Indonesia. Rubber and rubber chemicals, preservatives, shoe adhesives, and leather materials are the most common offending allergens.

Abstract

Background: Dermatomyositis (DM) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by muscle and skin inflammation, a part of the idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM). Even though the disease is idiopathic, there are multifactorial factors related to dermatomyositis. This care report aimed to describe a DM case in a male patient to increase the knowledge and management of DM patients. Case description: A 44-year-old Filipino male was referred to the emergency department (ED) of Siloam Hospital Mataram complaining of muscle pain and weakness with skin rashes 3 weeks before admission. Before the skin rash started, he had enlarged femoral lymph nodes in both thighs. The patient was afebrile with normal vital signs and was prescribed ibuprofen and amoxicillin. After that, he experienced skin rashes around his neck and the back of his ears with minimal pruritus.  The symptoms worsened, making him unable to open his mouth and hard to breathe. In the ED, he also threw up dark-colored blood twice. Supporting examination showed elevated transaminase, increased LDH, and creatinine kinase. Biopsy results showed a histologic pattern of dermatomyositis. During hospitalization, he received a high-dose systemic steroid, antibiotic, and symptomatic treatment. He was discharged with a good outcome and planned to continue medical treatment in his country. Conclusion: Dermatomyositis is an idiopathic autoimmune disease involving skin and internal organs. It is a multifactorial disease yet with unclear etiopathogenesis. Specific treatment guidelines for DM are not yet established, but initial systemic corticosteroid and additional steroid-sparring agents may exhibit good outcomes.
