Abstract

Background: Phototherapy is a safe and effective treatment modality for skin diseases in children such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, pityriasis lichenoides, vitiligo, cutaneous cell lymphoma, pityriasis rubra pilaris, and other skin disorders. It is reported to be effective with less side effects compare to the administration of systemic medicine. Short and long term side effects should be taken into account when applying this model of therapy, especially in children. Purpose: To identify special considerations regarding the use of phototherapy modalities in the field of dermatology in children. Review: Phototherapy is the use of ultraviolet (UV) radiation for therapeutic purposes. The various wavelengths of UV radiation used for phototherapy have their own respective photochemical and photobiological properties. There are modality choices that have been proven to provide benefits in treating various skin diseases, including broadband UVB and narrowband UVB, psoralen UVA photochemotherapy (PUVA), ultraviolet A 1 (UVA1), and targeting phototherapy. Special considerations regarding the use of this treatment modality in the pediatric population increase with safety and treatment tolerance. Conclusion: Special considerations should be taken when providing phototherapy treatment options to children with skin disorders requiring phototherapy. The therapies are generally well tolerated and mostly have minor adverse side effects, such as sunburn.

Abstract

Background: Tinea capitis (TC) is the most prevalent pediatric superficial dermatophyte infection. Scalp dermoscopy or "trichoscopy” represents a valuable, noninvasive technique for the evaluation of patients with hair loss due to TC. Purpose: To characterize trichoscopic findings in children with clinical findings suggestive of TC. Case:  A 13-year-old boy was presented with a scaled plaque on his scalp that had appeared 1 month earlier. A physical examination revealed a scaly, nonerythematous, rounded lesion in the parietal area of the head. Wood's lamp yielded a blue fluorescence. Microscopic morphology from fungal culture found the typical spindle-shaped macroconidia of Microsporum canis. Trichoscopy showed mainly comma hair, corkscrew hair, morse code hair, bent hair, and zig zag hair. The patient was started on oral griseofulvin 20 mg/kg/day and antifungal shampoo for 8 weeks. The patient was cured after two months of treatment and trichoscopy returned to normal. Discussion: Fungal culture remains the gold standard in TC diagnosis, but it needs time. Trichoscopy can be an additional tool to help evaluate the diagnosis, aetiology, and follow up of this disorder. The presence of characteristic trichoscopic features (comma hairs, corkscrew hairs, Morse code-like hairs, zigzag hairs, bent hairs, block hairs, and i-hairs) is predictive of TC. The present analysis confirmed that trichoscopy is a useful method in differentiating between Microsporum and Trichophyton TC, which is important from the perspective of a different therapeutic approach. Conclusion: Trichoscopy is not only of value in the diagnosis of TC but also for the etiologic agent and follow-up after treatment in this case.

Abstract

Background: The main target of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) T lymphocytes and several other immune cells that have CD4 receptors. They are also present in skin and mucosa, such as Langerhans cells (LC). Mucocutaneous lesions are one of the first clinical presentations of immunosuppression in HIV seropositive patients that manifest at different stages of the infection and require early diagnosis and prompt treatment. Purpose: To determine the clinical characteristics and the pattern of various mucocutaneous manifestations in Human immunodeficiency virus/Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) patients at Intermediate Care and Infectious Diseases Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital Surabaya. Methods: This is a descriptive retrospective study with a cross-sectional design. The study subject was classified as all HIV-AIDS patients with mucocutaneous manifestations treated in Intermediate Care and Infectious Diseases Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital Surabaya in 2019. Result: Out of the 614 patients who participated in the study, 72.1% were males. The majority of patients were in the age group 25–49 years (75.4%). The most common risk factor was heterosexuality (41.7%). Based on the distribution of mucocutaneous manifestations, the most common mucocutaneous manifestation was candidiasis mucocutan 387 patients (49.4%) followed by the pruritic papular eruption (PPE) 118 patients (15.1%) and human papillomavirus infection 57 patients (7.3%). Conclusion: Mucocutaneous manifestations occur throughout the course of HIV infection, and they can be considered as good clinical indicators for the progression of the disease and underlying immune status in resource-poor settings.
