The various clinical patterns of xanthoma disseminatum. Considerations on seven cases and review of the literature.

BACKGROUND: Xanthoma disseminatum (XD) is a rare mucocutaneous xanthoma nowadays classified as a benign non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. OBJECTIVE: We studied 7 cases of XD with a long follow-up and reviewed the literature in order to compare and discuss previous reports. METHODS: We studied clinical manifestations, course, histopathologic, ultrastructural and immunohistochemical findings of 7 cases of XD followed for 1-20 years. RESULTS: We report our findings and compare our cases with those described in the literature. CONCLUSIONS: XD and Langerhans cell histiocytosis were distinguished by clinical differences, as well as ultrastructural and immunohistochemical methods. Three clinical patterns of XD appeared to emerge in our group of patients and in the cases reviewed from the literature.

Palmar subcutaneous lipoma.

We report the case of a patient with a large palmar subcutaneous lipoma. The unusual site of the lesion and the importance of a differential diagnosis to rule out angiolipoma are stressed.

[Arnozán-Dubreuilh depilating folliculitis].

Male patient, aged twenty-six years. Having an eight-and-a-half-year- old dermatosis of localized evolution on scalp, under arms, thighs, pubis and legs, characterized by inflammatory papules and follicular and extra-adnexial pustules, tiny scars and lack of hair in the affected areas. The authors present a representative case of "depilating folliculitis" of (Arnozán and Dubreuilh) stressing the following: Uncommon frequency in our country but frequent in warmer climates where it is observed mainly among peasants and sugar-cane workers. Wide-depilated areas principally in folds. Seasonal outbreak. Good response to treatment. A revision of the theme is made emphasizing the histopathologic pathogenesis.

Multiple disseminated pyogenic granuloma.

A 15-month-old baby girl with extensive skin burns developed within the burned areas multiple lesions with the clinical and histological characteristics of granuloma pyogenicum. These lesions seem to differ from those reported by others as pyogenic granuloma with multiple satellites.

Squamous cell carcinoma of the nail bed.

A case is presented of squamous cell carcinoma developed from carcinoma in situ of the nail bed of the first finger in a 79-year-old patient. Stress is laid upon the importance of the differential diagnosis. Surgery is considered the treatment of choice for this uncommon condition.

[Scleroatrophying and degenerative keratodermic genodermatosis of the extremities].

A case of a picture described by Huriez et al. under the title of scleatrophying and keratodermic genodermatosis of the limbs usually degenerative is presented. In the genealogic study it was observed that seven out of the sixteen members that belonged to this primary family group were affected or probably affected and it is stressed that one of them died from metastasis of spinocellular epithelioma.

[Keratodermic genodermatosis with hydrocystomas, miliary cysts, xanthelasmas, nail and dental dystrophies, and basal cell epitheliomas].

Two cases of a condition including palms and soles keratoderma, ectodermal dysplasias and basal cell epitheliomas are reported by the authors, with clinical, genetical and pathological data. The condition is called Keratodermal Genodermatose with hydrocystomas, milium cysts, xanthelasma, dental and nail dysplasias and basal cell epitheliomata (Borda's syndrome).

Acquired pigmentation of skin folds with the histological picture of seborrhoeic wart.

The case history is presented of a woman with acquired lesions in the axillary, submammary, intermammary, inguinal, genitocrural and perianal skin folds. These lesions were confluent pigmented macules, giving rise to extensive (en nappe) reticulate patches. History revealed changes typical of seborrhoeic wart. The name patchy (en nappe) seborrhoeic wart is suggested for this condition.

[Basal and spinous cell epitheliomas].

A study on 502 epithelial cutaneous cancers was carried out by the authors. The study included 377 basal cell carcinomas (57,5% in males and 42,4% in females) and 125 squamous cell carcinomas (78,4% in males and 21,6% in females). The basal cell carcinomas in both sexs had an earlier onset than the squamous cell carcinomas.
