Q

Acquired Perforating Disorders:

A
  • Perforating Folliculitis: dermal material eliminated through follicles
  • Elastosis perforans serpiginosa: Transepidermal elimination of elastic fibers
  • Reactive perforating collagenosis: transepithelial elimination of altered collagen (Lesions regress)
  • Kyrle’s disease
17
Q

Elastosis perforans Serpiginosa:

A
  • Associated with Down syndrome
  • Cryotherapy helps
  • May be due to D-penicillamine
18
Q

Kyrle’s Disease:

A
  • Keratin predominantly extruded but elastic fibers and collagen may be present
  • Always on lower extremity
19
Q

Calciphylaxis:

A
  • Depoisition of calcium salts in skin due to dysregulation of calcium metabolism
  • Most severe form of metastatic calcification
  • Associated with chronic renal failure, hemodialysis, secondary hyperparathyroidism
  • Violaceous painful patches with necrosis and ulcers
  • High mortality rate
20
Q

Nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy:

A

-Due to exposure to Gadolinium-containing contrast agent used with MRI in patients with advanced renal disease
Skin thickened and hard leading to dismobility

21
Q

Pulmonary Causes:

A

-Sarcoidosis

22
Q

Sarcoidosis:

A
  • 25% pts have skin manifestations
  • Asymptomatic red brown dermal papules and or plaques
  • Neck face upper extremities and upper trunk
  • Enlarged Lacrimal Glands
  • Atrophy in lesion
  • Yellow brown apple jelly color with diascopy
  • Elevated ACE level
  • Erythema Nodosum: sometimes in sarcoidosis; tender bruise like nodules on lower extremity -> Bruise on skin
23
Q

A
  • Pyoderma gangrenosum

- Reiter’s syndrome

24
Q

Pyoderma Gangrenosum:

A
  • Inflammatory, NONINFECTIOUS, ulcerative neutrophilic skin disease
  • Pustules turn to ulcers and become necrotic
  • Ulcerative colitis and Crohn Association
