Localized Kaposi''s sarcoma in a patient with pemphigus vulgaris

We report the case of a patient with a 13-year history of pemphigus vulgaris (PV) treated with immunosuppressive agents, prednisone and mycophenolate mofetil who had developed lesions of Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) on a sole plaque of PV that had been previously treated with intralesional injections of steroids. The lesions were surgically removed and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) demonstrated human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) DNA. There were neither recurrences nor later dissemination of KS following gradual decrease of the immunosuppressive therapy. We suggest that the treatment with intralesional steroids may have influenced the local reactivation of a latent infection of the virus, determining the appearance of this localized KS.

大鼠下丘脑室旁核及其邻近区域至室管膜的传出联系

用20只Wistar大鼠以PHA—L免疫组织化学顺行追踪技术研究了下丘脑室旁核及其邻近区域对脑室系统室管膜的传出联系。在脑室系统某些部位的室管膜层或其下方见有丰富的标记纤维并见许多膨结和终末膨突。这些纤维似乎参与形成室管膜上、下丛,构成脑—脑脊液神经体液回路的重要环节。     

Ungewöhnliche Strahlenreaktion nach Röntgenweichstrahltherapie bei einer Patientin mit Pemphigus vulgaris

Zusammenfassung Bei einer 71j?hrigen Frau trat nach R?ntgenweichstrahltherapie an der Nase (Gesamtdosis 28 Gy, Gewebehalbwerttiefe 10,5–11,5 mm) eine ausgepr?gte Strahlenerosion auf. Diese zeigte 5 Wochen nach Ende der Bestrahlung noch keine Tendenz zur Abheilung. Ursache dieses ungew?hnlichen Verlaufes war ein gleichzeitig bestehender Pemphigus vulgaris. Dieser hatte sich nach der Strahlentherapie, vermutlich als Folge einer Freisetzung epidermaler Antigene, verschlimmert. Da? der Pemphigus in diesem Fall durch die Bestrahlung ausgel?st wurde – wie mehrfach in der Literatur berichtet – ist unwahrscheinlich, aber nicht sicher auszuschlie?en. Eingegangen am 11. April 1994 Angenommen am 10. Juni 1994     

银屑病患者血清中抗角质层抗体滴度的研究

本文以正常人掌蹠角质层作抗原,应用酶联免疫吸附试验的方法,检测52名正常人和银屑病人血清中抗角质层抗体的含量,结果病人血清中抗角质层抗体的水平显著低于正常人(P<0.01),并且病人抗角质层抗体的消长变化与临床病情的进程和皮损的活动强度呈平行关系。     

A case of pemphigus vulgaris possibly triggered by quinolones

Pemphigus vulgaris is an autoimmune blistering disorder in which both genetic and environmental factors, mainly drugs, are thought to play a part in its aetiopathogenesis. Although some drugs that contain thiol groups, such as D-penicillamine and captopril, and non-thiol drugs, such as cephalosporin, have been reported to trigger or induce pemphigus, there are no previous reports regarding the influence of quinolones in triggering this disease. Here we present a case of pemphigus possibly triggered by quinolones.     

Pemphigus Vulgaris Associated with Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia and Elevated TNFα

A 76-year-old female was admitted with many bullae and erythema on her trunk and extremities. A biopsy specimen showed significant intercellular edema in the lower epidermis and eosinophilic infiltration into the dermis and the epidermis. Immunofluorescent staining revealed the deposition of IgG in the intercellular area of her prickle cells. From these histologic findings and the typical clinical features, we diagnosed her as having pemphigus vulgaris. Examination of her blood revealed that she also suffered from autoimmune hemolytic anemia. Despite intensive treatment with prednisolone, she finally died. This case is of interest because of its rarity and the TNFα detected significantly in the blister fluid of this patient.     

Examination of the dermal lymphatics in psoriasis⋆

In recent years, research on the aetiology of psoriasis has focused on immune aetiopathogenesis. However, in the last few years, research on the immunoloogical changes in psoriasis has failed to mention the lymphatics. Also, studies emphasizing the importance of the dermal lymphatics have neglected the lymphatic changes seen in psoriasis. Therefore, we decided to put this matter back on the agenda. Skin biopsies from 20 patients with psoriasis vulgaris were examined lymphatically by light microscopy using the orcein stain. We found a considerable increase in both number and dilatation in the lymphatics of psoriatic plaques, compared with both the clinically uninvolved skin of the psoriatic patients and also the skin of the control group.
