Background: Oral hairy leukoplakia (OHL) is an asymptomatic white plaque with vertical corrugations most commonly found on the lateral borders of the tongue. It is caused by local infection of Epstein- Barr Virus (EBV). OHL is usually associated with immunocompromised condition, and mainly described in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Purpose: to report a case of oral hairy leukoplakia in an HIV patient that is often misdiagnosed as oral candidasis. Case: A 44-years old female came to the Dermato-Venereology Outpatient Clinic of Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya with complaint of persistent asymptomatic whitish color on both borders of her tongue. History taking revealed that at first the whitish color appeared spreading on the tongue, but after taking antifungal treatment, only the lesion on the borders still persisted, all attempts to scrub off the lesion failed. There were also history of diarrhea, fever and cough for almost 1 month. Further examination of HIV antibody 3 method tests revealed reactive result with CD4+ count of 1 cel/uL. Physical examination revealed bilateral painless white well demarcated plaque with “hairy” like corrugated appearance on the lateral borders of the tongue. Discussion: From history, clinical findings, and the reactive HIV antibody examination, the patient was diagnosed with AIDS with oral hairy leukoplakia. The patient was treated with acyclovir 200 mg, 5 times daily. After 2 weeks of treatment, clearance was achieved. Conclusion: The establishment of OHL which oftenly mistaken as oral candidiasis has a diagnostic value for HIV infection. Systemic antiviral institution and antiretroviral (ARV) medications as prevention for recurrence gave satisfying result. Key words: oral hairy leukoplakia, HIV, acyclovir.

Background: Clinical manifestations of leprosy depends on host’s immunity. Regulatory T (Treg) cells are known as CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ have roles in immune respons to maintain homeostasis. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β are one of cytokine that is secreted by Treg cells. Treg cells are thought as unresponsiveness T cells (anergy) to Mycobacterium leprae and caused disease’s progression to lepromatosa. Purpose: To evaluate expression of TGF-β on Treg cells from patient leprosy’s skin lession. Methods: Design of study was cross-sectional, descriptive observation involving 18 leprosy patients who visited the Leprosy Division, Dermatology and Venereology Outpatient Clinic, Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya. Biopsy from skin lession were performed then continued with histopathological examination. The type of leprosy was determined by clinical and histopathological examinations. Expression of TGF-β on Treg cell were performed by double staining immunohistochemistry in Biomoleculer and Pathology and Anatomy Laboratory at Brawijaya University, Malang. Result: Numbers of mid-borderline type (BB) leprosy’s patients were 2 (11,1%), 9 (50%) patients with borderline lepromatosa (BL) type, and 7 (38,5%) patients with Lepromatosa (LL) type. Mean expression of TGF-β on Treg cells from skin lession’s leprosy on BB type was 12 ± 2,12 cells/field of view, on BL type was 16 ± 3,64 cells/fields of view and on LL type was 22± 3,69 cells/field of view. Conclusion: Expression of TGF-β on Treg cells are increasing on skin lession’s leprosy patients might as prognostic indicator of severity of leprosy (lepromatosa type).

Background: Kaposi’s sarcoma (KS) revealed by Moritz Kaposi first time in 1872. In the early 1980, the prevalence of SK began to increase dramatically. A new finding leads to growth, isolation, and characterization of a novel human herpes virus, now known as Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpes virus (KSHV) or Human herpes virus type 8 (HHV-8) from SK lesions. Puspose: To determine the role of herpes viruses in the pathogenesis of KS. Review: KS is a cancer that develops from cells lining the lymph vessels or blood vessels. A number of KSHV encoded protein is known to have the ability to oncogenic transformation, included are latent and lytic proteins. Latent proteins tend to increase survival and proliferation of infected cells, whereas lytic viral proteins are believed to support the growth factors and angiogenic paracrine secretion useful for tumor growth and progression. Conclusion: HHV-8 is necessary, but not sufficient to cause the KS, and other factors such as immunosuppression also play a role.Key words: Kaposi’s sarcoma, herpes viruses.

Background: Immune respons disturbance oftenly found in leprosy patient, mainly in various T cell subset and cytokine immune system arranger. Interleukin-10 produced by Th 2 cell, Th3 cell, monocyte, dendritic cell, eosinophil, mast cell, and keratinocyte. Interleukin 10 (IL-10) works in active macrophage to end the respons to microbe and restore the system to the resting state after the microbes are destroyed. Purpose: To analyze correlation between IL-10 level with Bacterial Index (BI) in Multidrug Therapy (MDT)-treared leprosy patient. Methods: Cross sectional analytical observational study of 43 subjects, consisting of 38 males (88.4%) and 5 females (11.6%). The IL-10 examination used quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay, human IL-10 Quantikine® ELISA methods from R & D systems® Result: There was positive correlation between IL-10 and BI of MDT-treated leprosy patient (r = 0,504; p=0,001). Conclusion: The increasing of IL-0 correlated with high BI. Interleukin-10 level is higher in MB type than PB type of leprosy patients.Key words: Interleukin-10 (IL-10), bacterial index (BI).

Background: Recently henna tattoo become popular. Incidence of allergic contact dermatitis due to henna tattoo is increasing. Para-phenylenediamine (PPD) is suspected as a contact sensitizer because it is often added to henna tattoo to make a darker color. Patch test is needed to determine the allergen. Case: A 18 year-old woman with chief complaint itchy redness patches, burning sensation, and blisters containing pus on her lower left arm after she applied henna tattoo on those site 3 days before. It was the second time applying henna and the reaction was appeared. The patient was treated with oral antibiotic for 5 days, oral antihistamine, and wet dressing with NaCL 0.9% for 3 days. Three days after wet dressing, topical corticosteroid was applied, and the lesion resolved. Patch test was performed 10 months later and showed positive reaction to PPD and toluenesulfonamide formaldehyde resin (TSFR). The previous history, patient had allergy to nail polish which TSFR was suspected as a contact sensitizer. Discussion: Allergic contact dermatitis is a hypersensitivity reaction caused by skin contact with an environmental allergen. Prior sensitization is required for allergy to develop. Patch test is the gold standard to determine the allergen. Based on history and physical examination, clinical relevance of patch test showed positive current relevance (possible) for PPD, and past relevance for TSFR. Conclusion: Avoiding the allergens are important in the management of contact dermatitis.Key words: Allergic contact dermatitis, henna tattoo, para-phenylenediamine (PPD), patch test.
