Derm Flashcards
(108 cards)
comparison of epidermis PT, FT, adult and significance
PT < FT < adult
increased permeability and water loss
comparison of dermis PT, FT, adult and significance
less collagen elastic fibers
PT < FT < adult
greater elasticity and tendency to blister
comparison of melanosomes PT, FT, adult and significance
PT < FT < adult
increased photosensitivity
comparison of eccrine glands PT, FT, adult and significance
PT = anhidrosis
FT = decreased activity for 1-7 d and neuro control at 3 years
comparison of sebaceous glands PT, FT, adult and significance
PT < FT < adult
comparison of hair PT, FT, adult and significance
PT = lanugo
FT = decreased terminal hair
comparison of SFA:volume PT, FT, adult and significance
PT > FT > adult
water loss
increased transcutaneous penetration
erythema toxicum confirmation
eosinophils on Wright staining
some have peripheral eosinophilia
stages of neonatal pustular melanosis
- small non inflammatory without erythema; birth
- ruptures with surrounding hyperpigmented macule
- hyperpigmented macule (up to 3 months)
neonatal pustular melanosis confirmation
neutrophils by wright staining
miliaria confirmation
sparse squamous cells and lymphocytes by wright staining
what causes milia
small epidermal inclusion cysts - retension of keratin and sebaceous material
pathogenesis of neonatal acne
previously 2/2 androgens
now maybe malassezia
pathogenesis of infantile acne
sebaceous gland hyperplasia - androgen stimulation
onset of neonatal and infantile acne
2-3 weeks vs 3-4 months
treatment of neonatal and infantile acne
neonatal - none
infantile - may require treatment to prevent scarring; may need to evaluate for CAH
epidemiology of neonatal and infantile acne
neonatal 20%; M > F
infantile M>F
bullous impetigo
first few days
honey crusting
s. aureus
Tx = antibiotics
SSSS
exotoxin s.aureus (group 2 phage)
+ nikolsky
+/- conjunctivitis and nasal congestion
fluid is sterile
culture nasopharynx, conjunctiva, skin and blood
antibiotics
NO scarring
histology of bullous impetigo vs SSSS
BI =
intradermal bullae with PMNs
SSSS = no inflammatory cells on histology
separation of granular layer
types of epidermolysis bullosa
junctional
simplex = epidermolytic
dystrophic = dermolytic
comparison of scarring in EB types
J = atrophic
S = without
D = yes
etiology of EB types
J = dermal-epidermal junction
S = intra-epidermal blisters
D = intradermal blisters (type 7 collagen decreased; increased collagenase)
genetics of EB types
J = AR
S = AD
D = AR or AD
