Abstract

- Verruca plana is caused by human papillomavirus. Clinical features are 2- to 4-mm slightly elevated, flat topped, smooth papules that may be hyperpigmented. They are generally multiple and are grouped on the face and hand dorsum. Children and young adults are primarily affected. We report a case of verruca plana with vitiligo like lesions in a 6-year-old female patient. She had been treated with topical imiquimod cream and the lesions were getting better.

Abstract

- Lichen striatus is a inflammatory disorder characterized by distinctive linear distribution of papules. The lesion presents commonly on the extremities and facial involvement has been reported as being less frequent. Only four cases have been reported in the Korean literatures. A 3-year-old patient presented with linear erythematous papules on the nose. Histopathologically, the lesion showed spongiosis in the epidermis and lymphocytic infiltration around the hair follicles and eccrine glands in the dermis. We report a case of lichen striatus with facial involvement.

Abstract
PDF
- Treatments for alopecia areata include topical corticosteroid treatment, corticosteroid intralesional injection, systemic corticosteroid treatment, PUVA(psoralen-UVA) and topical immunotherapy. The therapeutic effects are variable. Alopecia totalis is hard to treat completely. Topical immunotherapy with dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB), squaric acid dibutyl ester (SADBE) or diphenylcyclopropenone (diphencyprone, DPCP) represents the most accepted therapeutic modality for the treatment of extensive alopecia areata. We report two cases of alopecia totalis treated with DPCP. After DPCP treatment, total scalp hair was completely recovered.
