Abstract

Background: Syphilis is one of the most serious sexually transmitted diseases worldwide, and has tremendous consequences for the mother and her developing fetus if left untreated. The burden of morbidity and mortality due to congenital syphilis is high. Purpose: Screening and prompt to know the importance of treatment of syphilis during pregnancy. Case: A 32-year-old multigravida in 5 months of pregnancy presented with multiple raised lesions over her labia. It was accompanied by fluor and smelly fishy odor. There was no history of genital ulcers in either spouse and no history of sexual promiscuity. History of antenatal care in public health showed non-reactive status of HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B. Clinical examination revealed multiple flat, moist warts over her labia mayora and minora, and multiple roseola syphilitica on the plantar pedis sinistra. Darkfield microscopic examination presence spirochete, venereal disease research laboratory (VDRL) titer was 1:16 and T. pallidum particle agglutination assay (TPHA) titer was 1:2560. Obstetric ultrasonography examination was suggestive no mayor congenital abnormalities. Both of serology VDRL and TPHA were non-reactive in her husband. Significant of lesion improvement and decrease a fourfold titer serologic in VDRL (1:4) and TPHA (1:320) as follow-up 3 months after being treated with single intra-muscular injections of benzathine penicillin 2.4 million units. Discussion: Coordinated prenatal care and treatment are vital. It's implemented before the fourth month of pregnancy to reduce vertical transmission and all associated side effects of congenital syphilis. Penicillin is highly efficacious in maternal syphilis and prevention of congenital syphilis. Conclusion: Universal screening and adequate pregnancy care must be a priority.

Abstract

Background: Cutaneous adverse drug reaction (CADR) is the most common manifestation of drug hypersensitivity in humanimmunodeficiency virus (HIV), which presented as maculopapular rash. The incidence of CADR is found to be more commonin untreated HIV patients, and the frequency is higher in severe immunodeficiency status. Early diagnosis and appropriatetreatment give better outcomes. Purpose: To evaluate the incidence and management of CADR in HIV and acquired immunedeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients. Methods: A retrospective descriptive study of HIV/AIDS patients with CADR whowere hospitalized at Intermediate Care and Infectious Disease Centre Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital. Result: Therewere more CADR cases in 2017, accounted 2.35% of the total Intermediate Care and Infectious Disease Centre RSUD Dr.Soetomo General Academic Teaching Hospital ward patients. There were more male patients (62.5%), with the mostcommonly found at the age of 25-44 years (64.3%), and which mostly (89.3%) originated from Surabaya. The most commondiagnosis was morbiliform eruption (60.7%), main complaint was red spots all over the body (45%), all of which are obscureerythematous macules. The most common causes were Duviral + Neviral antiretroviral (46%) and the most common treatmentwas dexamethasone injection. Conclusion: The incidence of CADR increased in 2017. The most frequent manifestation wasmorbilliform eruption due to Duviral+Neviral as the first line ARV treatment. Skin management varies widely in form oftopical, oral, and intravenous injection drugs, mostly using steroid class, dexamethasone intravenous injection in particular.

Abstract

Background: Oral candidiasis is an oral infection caused by Candida albicans. It is one of the most common opportunistic infections found in patients with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Due to growing resistance and side effects to common antifungal drugs in recent years, there have been many studies on naturalsubstances as antifungal agents. In this study, Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) were examined for in vitro antifungal activity against Candida strains. Purpose: To compare the in vitro antifungal activity of EGCG and nystatin towards Candida sp. isolate in HIV/AIDS patients with oral candidiasis. Methods: This research was an experimental laboratory study conducted at the Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya. Forty isolates of Candida albicans and Candida non-albicans were included. The isolates were tested for antifungal activity using the well diffusion and microdilution method for nystatin 1000 IU and EGCG 1.25%. Result: Diffusion test results showed a greater inhibition zone for nystatin against all analyzed Candida strains with an average diameter for Candida albicans formed by EGCG of 2.15 mm and 7.4 mm for Candida non-albicans. Meanwhile, based on the microdilution test, EGCG was better than nystatin towards all analyzed Candida strains. This study showed EGCG Minimum Fungicidal Concentration (MFC) as high as 50% (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Nystatin antifungal activity was better than EGCG supported by a greater inhibition zone in the well diffusion method. However, the antifungal activity of EGCG was better than nystatin based on microdilution methods.

Abstract

Background: Fractional Carbon Dioxide (CO2) LASER has better efficacy compared to conventional LASER in treating scar tissue such as acne scars, keloids, and striae albae. However, a population with darker skin has a higher risk of side effects, especially in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy and side effects of fractional CO2 LASER in new patients with acne scars, keloids, and striae albae in the Dermatovenereology outpatient clinic. Methods: Retrospective analysis was done on 42 medical records of patients who met the inclusion criterion, which was those who have undergone fractional CO2 LASER treatments. The efficacy and side effects of the therapy were identified and analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 17 program. Result: A total of 42.9% of patients underwent fractional CO2 LASER treatments for acne scars, while 31% and 26.1% of patients received treatments for keloids and striae albae, respectively. There was a statistically significant decrease in the degree of acne scar (2.72 ± 0.83), keloid height (2.2 ± 0.405), and striae width (0.39 ± 0.02). The statistically significant side effects were hyperpigmentation (59.5%), crustae (26.2%), erythema ≥ for 4 days (19%), and new acne (19%). Conclusion: Fractional CO2 LASER was effective for treating scar tissue (acne scars, keloids, and striae albae) with a higher incidence of side effects in population with darker skin and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Abstract

Background: Psoriasis is a skin disease that occurs due to proliferation and differentiation disturbances of the epidermis. This chronic condition often reduces the human quality of life. There have been studies investigating psoriatic patient profiles and treatments, but few are conducted in Surabaya. Hence, those studies cannot fully represent the population demographic in Surabaya. Purpose: To investigate the prevalence of psoriasis vulgaris and the sociodemographic profile of the patients in Dr Soetomo General Academic Hospital. Methods: This was a Retrospective study psoriasis vulgaris patients in January 2016–December 2018. The data were collected by retrieving Electronic Medical Records (EMR) as secondary data. Result: The psoriasis vulgaris prevalence of outpatients was 0.46% and 4.59% in inpatients. Most study subjects were adults aged 18 and above (98.1%), most of the patients were obese (46.3%), the most common provoking factor was focal tooth infection (33.8%) and stress (28.8%), and none reported family history of psoriasis. Conclusion: Some results are similar to other studies conducted in Surabaya, which were the obesity and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) being strong a factor to psoriasis development. However, the result on psoriasis family history was not in line with other studies.

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.

Abstract

Background: Skin prick test (SPT) is indicated in type I hypersensitivity reactions (rapid type), among which is Atopic Dermatitis (AD). However, the results of SPT for the tested allergens are not always accompanied by history of known allergens in AD patients. Purpose: To identify the characteristics of AD patients who underwent SPT. Methods: This was a descriptive retrospective study to determine the demographics, allergy history, SPT results, and positive and negative clinical relevance in AD patients treated at Allergy Immunology Division of Dermatology and Venerology Outpatient Clinic Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital Surabaya-Indonesia from January 2017 to December 2019. Results: A total of 284 AD patients were included. The adult age group (20-59 years) predominated the AD patient's visit every year with 58 patients (60.42%), 47 patients (46.08%), and 65 patients (75.58%) in 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively. Only 60 AD patients underwent SPT, where most patients were allergic to dust with 30 patients (50.0%). House dust mite (HDM) allergen had the highest percentage of positive SPT result with 41 patients (63.3%). The greatest clinical relevance was found in cat fur allergen, where all patients (100.0%) had clinical relevance to their SPT result. Conclusion: This study shows that most AD patients were in adult age group and had a history of dust allergy. The highest percentage of positive SPT result was found in HDM allergen and the greatest clinical relevance was found in cat fur allergen.

Abstract

Background: Adamantiades–Behçet is a genetically determined disorder with a probable environmental triggering factor and is an inflammatory disease representing vasculitis. Chronic relapsing progressive course, Dapson prevents problems in other organs. Case Report: A 31-year-old woman with chief complaints of a progressive painful ulcer on her genitalia in the last month, covered by pus and with a bad odor, and also recurrent tongue sores that healed spontaneously. Multiple partner sexual intercourse, joint pain, and an eye complaint were denied. Her husband has no history of previous sexually transmitted diseases. The labia majora region showed a solitary ulcer, sharply marginated, and covered with pus. The Haemophilus ducreyi, pathergy, VDRL, TPHA, and rapid test HIV all came back negative. Enterococcus faecalis, found in bacterial culture, is sensitive to Penicillin and glycopeptide. Histopathologically recited vasculitis with thrombus in the blood vessel marks Behcet disease. The patient was given Mefenamic Acid (3x500mg), doxycicline (2x100 mg), and a wet dressing. The ulcer decreased in size after 3 weeks of treatment. Discussion: Adamantiades-Behçett disease is characterized by chronic, recurrent oral aphthous ulcers, genital ulcers, skin lesions, ocular lesions, and arthritis or arthropathy. Viral and bacterial infections have been implicated in initiating immunopathologic pathways. The pathergy test is pathognomonic, but it is not specific and often gives a negative result. Histopathological examination is still the best option to establish the diagnosis.

Abstract

Background: Syphilis infection and HIV are major health problems worldwide. Both of these diseases can be transmitted through sexual contact, so often a person suffers from both diseases at the same time. Purpose: To describe the risk factors of syphilis and HIV/AIDS coinfection in the Infectious Disease Intermediate Treatment Unit (UPIPI) inpatient and outpatient ward of Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital in 2019. Methods: The study design used in this study is a retrospective descriptive study aimed at evaluating sexual and non-sexual factors that cause syphilis and HIV coinfection. The research population was patients in the inpatient and outpatient rooms of UPIPI RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya for the January-December 2019 period. The sampling technique was sourced from secondary data, namely medical record data from the inpatient and outpatient rooms of UPIPI RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya for the period January-December 2019. The data in this study were obtained from medical records and patient biodata. Result: Based on the calculation results, it is known that age group (P=0.022>0.05), and gender (P=0.024>0.05) had no effect on the risk of syphilis and HIV coinfection, while marital status (P=0.048<0.05), sexual orientation (P=0.048<0.05), transmission model (P=0.044<0.05), and type of work (P=0.046<0.05fected the risk of syphilis and HIV coinfection. Conclusion: People with HIV/AIDS are expected to be active in participating in programs that are needed by patients, such as antiretroviral (ARV) therapy assistance programs and counseling that will prolong the quality of life in various aspects of life, both physical, psychological and social aspects.

Abstract

Background: Verruca (non genital warts) is a quite common public health problem caused by viral infection of low risk Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) types, risking patients of all backgrounds. There is still no ideal treatment for verruca with little knowledge regarding the effectiveness of the available therapies, which results in the lack of therapeutic standard for patients. Purpose: To evaluate the incidence, management, and effectiveness of verruca treatment. Methods: This was a descriptive, retrospective study with a cross-sectional design.  All patients diagnosed with verruca in Tumor and Skin Surgery Division of the Dermatology and Venereology Outpatient Unit at Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital Surabaya between January 2016 and December 2020 were included in the study. Result: The results of this study obtained a total of 113 verruca patients, consisting of 61 (53.98%) male patients and 52 (46.01%) female patients, mostly aged 20-60 years old (45 patients [39.82%]). The upper extremity was the most common location where the lesion was found (39 patients [34.5%]). Electrosurgery was the most performed method (38 patients [33.6%]). Thirty-one patients who were treated and returned to the clinic at least once during the month were evaluated for the resolution of the lesion after undergoing therapy. Among 31 patients, resolution was reported in 35.5% of cases. Conclusion: Verruca is a common condition in general practice with many treatment options available yet often neglected. Knowing the available evidence for efficacy of those treatments is critical for dermatologist when considering treatment and educate patients.
