Morphology Living gross pathology of skin, hair nails and visible mucosae Review basic lesions, the nouns (papules, ulcers etc.) Add the adjectives (size, shape, colour, texture, etc.) Consider distribution, symmetry and pattern Visual literacy: simple descriptions→complex interpretations (you see, but do you observe?) Excellent lighting Position patient Look all over (skin, mucosa, hair, nails) Observe and think
4
Dermatopathology Pathology – high degree of clinical pathological correlation Assess depth of lesion in skin
7
Bacterial Skin Disease
Barrier – dry, tough, acidic, Ig in sweat, epidermal turnover every 28 days Normal Flora: Gm+, yeasts, anaerobes, Gm-
8
Bacterial Skin Diseases
Impetigo Bullous and non-bullous Folliculitis/furuncle Erysipelas/cellulitis Necrotizing Fasciitis Toxin diseases: SSSS, Scarlet fever, toxic shocks Superantigen: Staph. aureus in atopic derm. Pseudomonas: warm, moist, alkaline
9
Impetigenization (bullous) of pre-existing dermatosis
10
Impetigenized Atopic (Non-bullous) Staph. > strep.
11
Erysipelas -Strep. pyogenes -Dermal infection
-Asymmetrical, sharp demarcation -Spreading -Septic patient Treatment Oral – amoxacillin 500 QID x days IV – if severe or recurrent, or co-morbidities
12
Cellulitis – haemorrhagic
-usually Strep. pyogenes -deep dermal and sub- cutaneous Treat – as for erysipelas, but cover for Staph.
13
Necrotizing Fasciitis
-Pain out of proportion to apparent lesion -Strep or multi-bacterial deep infection -Emergency debridement and multiple IV antibiotics
14
Meningococcal septicaemia
Petechiae Purpura Necrosis Treatment -blood cultures -immediate IV antibiotics -lumbar puncture -support for gram negative endotoxic shock
15
Meningococcal Disease
Septicemia vs meningitis % vs 10% mortality Peaks: infancy to 5 years - Second peak age 15 Infection and Endotoxin and DIC cause damage Rash subtle at first - Erythema→purpura →necrosis - Search for petechiae / purpura - “any febrile child with a petechial rash should be considered to have meningococcal septicemia, and treatment should be commenced without waiting for further confirmation.”
16
SSSS primary Staph. infection conjunctivitis
17
Staph. Scalded Skin Syndrome
SSSS – same child, back, sterile blisters -epidermolytic toxin mediated disease
18
31 yr. gay male admitted for biopsy of lymph node for expected lymphoma. Rash noted, dermatology consulted. Widespread papular eruption with adenopathy.
19
Soles of same patient. Your diagnosis?
20
Secondary syphilis -a systemic disease -order STS and treponemal tests
-LP? Treatment -Benzathine penicillin 2.4 million units IM -Herxheimer reaction -follow STS -report disease -contact tracing -check for other venereal diseases
21
Secondary syphilis Condylomata lata
22
Viral Skin Disease DNA – tend to proliferate on skin
RNA – tend to be erythemas/exanthems Exanthem – epidermal/skin Enanthem - mucosal
23
Definitions Exanthem(s) = Exanthema(ta), (Greek)
A bursting out (ex) in flowers (anthema) Any dermatosis that erupts or “flowers” quickly Only the erythemas are numbered Includes papular, vesicular, pustular eruptions

(Plantar) Wart, Treatment Summary
Respect natural history First do no harm Cryotherapy Caustics: salicylic acid, lactic acid, cantharadine Other chemicals: imiquimod, fluorouracil Immunotherapy: DPCP Surgery: curette only, no desiccation, no excision No radiation
46
HIV – primary exanthem This rash not a problem. It’s the permissive effect of immune suppression that allows other infections and tumors to kill
47
Primary HIV Infection Lapins et al BJD 1996, 22 consecutive men
HIV Exposure Acute illness 11–28 days, Seroconvert in 2–3wks Fever 22, pharyngitis21, adenopathy21, Exanthem day 1-5 of illness Upper trunk and neck, discrete non-confluent red macules and maculopapules in 17 / 22 Enanthem of palatal erosions in 8 / 22
48
Fungal Skin Infections
Superficial and Deep Superficial Tinea plus location Tinea = dermatophyte Lives on keratin (non-viable) Tinea versicolour is misnomer = dimorphic yeast Hair and nail infections must be treated systemically (terbinafine, griseofulvin)

Eczema A morphological diagnosis based on observations of the inflammatory pattern in the skin Eczema is not an etiologic diagnosis Eczema is a subgroup of dermatitis Etiology: exogenous vs endogenous Acute signs: erythema, edema, edematous papules, vesicles, erosions, crusting, secondary pyoderma Chronic signs: lichenification, scales, fissures, dyspigmentation Borders usually ill-defined
69
Atopic Dermatitis endogenous
To make a diagnosis of atopic dermatitis (Hanifin) - must have 3 or more major features: 1) pruritus 2) typical morphology and distribution flexural lichenification facial and extensor involvement in infants and children 3) chronic or relapsing dermatitis 4) personal family history of atopy Plus 3 or more minor features:
70
Endogenous - Pompholyx of Palms, sago vesicles, acute phase
71
Chronic palmar eczema, fissures and scale
72
Atopic dermatitis Anti-cubital lichenification Black skin
73
Atopic dermatitis – anticubital lichenification with impetigenization
74
Severe lichenification – ankles, chronic phase
75
Exogenous - allergic contact dermatitis, poison ivy, acute signs
76

77
Patch testing, to diagnose cause of allergic contact dermatitis
78

84
Eczema - Treatment Remove or treat the cause General measures Topical
Optimise the environment for healing Compress if moist, hydrate if dry Topical Corticosteroids: hydrocortisone, betamethasone, clobetasol BID max. frequency Ointments, creams, gels, lotions Systemic Prednisone: define endpoint, always warn of osteonecrosis Phototherapy
85
Scabies - treatment Permethrin 5% cream or lotion neck to toes overnight Treat all close contacts whether itchy or not Wash clothes and bed-sheets Set aside gloves for 10 days Nodules may persist few months May use topical steroid after mites dead
86
Psoriasis T-cell disease, Th1 inflammatory pattern Morphology
Symmetry (endogenous) Plaque: sharply demarcated plaque with coarse scale across whole lesion. Guttate: drop-like or papular variant of plaque psoriasis Pustular (sterile) and erythrodermic forms are more inflammatory and unstable Erythrodermic – involves > 90% skin
87

Psoriasis -Treatment Consider exacerbating factors: stress, drugs, infection Consider stability of disease (pustular and erythrodermic) Koebner = isomorphic phenomenon Three Pillars of therapy Topical – creams, ointments, lotions, baths Scalp, extensors, flexures Steroids Calcipotriene Salicylic acid Tar Systemic –Pills and Injections Methotrexate, Acitretin, Cyclosporin, Biologicals Ultraviolet Radiation UVB –broad and narrow band, UVA, PUVA
102
Acne Etiology: heredity, hormones, drugs, ?diet
Sebum – encourages growth of P. acnes Propionibacterium acnes – inflammation, initiates comedones Morphology “Noninflammatory” – comedones, open and closed Inflammatory – papule, pustule, nodule, abscess (“cyst”), scars...ulcers Microcomedo is probably the primary lesion

Acne - Treatment Psychological impact
General measures: avoid picking, not due to poor hygeine Mechanical –rubbing clothes and equipment Chemical – oils, chlorinated hydrocarbons Diet - glycemic index?, milk? Drugs that flare acne Lithium, anabolic steroids, catabolic steroids, dilantin, halogens, EGFRI’s Topicals Benzoyl peroxide 5% aq. gel, once daily, (bleach) Retinoids – comedonal acne, tretinoin cream or gel nightly, adapalene, tazarotene are 2nd generation retinoids Antibiotics – consider issue of resistance Oral Antibiotics: Tetra 500 BID, minocycline, erythromycin, clindamycin, trimethoprim – X 3 months Hormones in females Isotretinoin – (Accutane, Clarus) – only disease remitting agent
111
Hidradenitis suppurativa - axilla
112
Perioral dermatitis
113
Perioral Dermatitis Treatment
Don’t be fooled by name, it’s acne not eczema Stop topical steroids Metronidazole 1% topical cream or gel, or topical antibiotic (erythro, clinda) Tetracycline 500 bid x 6-8 weeks Sun protection Reduce flare factors – fluoride in toothpaste
114
Rosacea – rhinophyma, papules and pustule
115
Rosacea Diagnosis Erythema and telangectasias Papulopustular

138
Skin Cancer - Treatment
Biopsy if in doubt match method to depth (shave, punch, incision, excision) Curettage (BCCa, SCCa small, not Melanoma) may precede with shave excision electrodesiccation Surgical Excision Closure: fusiform, flap, graft Margin Control Ill-defined, critical real-estate, recurrent, aggressive Mohs’, frozen section Radiotherapy Other: chemotherapy (imiquimod), PDT
