Diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue (dermatology)

Enteropathic acrodermatitis: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Acrodermatitis enteropathic (synonym: Dunbolt-Kloss syndrome) is a rare systemic disease caused by a deficiency of zinc in the body due to its absorption in the small intestine.

Pink acne

Pink acne (synonyms: acne rosacea, rosacea, redheads) is a chronic disease of the sebaceous glands and hair follicles of the facial skin in combination with the increased sensitivity of the capillaries of the dermis to heat.

Acne vulgaris

Vulgar acne (synonyms: common acne, youthful acne, acne) - an inflammatory disease of the sebaceous glands, usually occurring during puberty. Sick girls aged 10-17 years, boys - 14-19 years. The most often severe form affects young men.

Alopecia: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Alopecia (alopecia) - abnormal hair loss on the head, face, rarely - on the trunk and extremities. There are cicatricial and non-scarring alopecia. Scar alopecia occurs due to the destruction of hair follicles due to inflammation, atrophy or scarring in case of lupus erythematosus, pseudoplella, and Little-Lassuire syndrome. Follicular mucinosis.

Paget's disease

Paget's disease refers to precancerous conditions. It is believed that extramammary forms are associated with carcinoma of the sweat glands. Foci in the area of mammary glands are considered as metastases by per continual breast cancer. As the provoking factors may be trauma, scar changes and other endo- and exogenous factors.

Basal cell carcinoma (basal cell carcinoma)

Basalioma is a slowly growing and rarely metastatic basal cell carcinoma that occurs in the epidermis or hair follicles whose cells are similar to the basal cells of the epidermis. Basalioma is considered not as a cancer or a benign neoplasm, but as a special kind of tumor with local destructive growth.

Multiple steatocystomas: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

To date, the embryogenesis of sebocystomatosis has not been fully understood and remains a matter of controversy. A hundred years ago, many dermatologists regarded lesions as fatty or retention cysts. Some authors believe that cysts are formed as a result of excessive keratinization leading to a delay in the secretion of sebaceous glands.

Dermatofibroma: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Dermatofibroma is a benign tumor of connective tissue in the form of a slowly growing painless knot. The causes and pathogenesis of dermatofibromas have not been studied.

Star keratoma

Solitary or multiple lesions appear on open areas of the skin (face, neck, upper limbs). First there are erythematous spots, then on these sites develops a limited, hyperkeratosis.

Cutaneous horn: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

The cutaneous horn arises from the proliferation of the epidermis, especially against the background of senile keratosis, common warts and keratoacanthoma. Among the provoking factors distinguish microtraumas, insolation, viral infections, etc.
