[SAPHO syndrome. Case description of 3 patients with acne conglobata and osteoarticular symptoms].

We report three new cases of the SAPHO syndrome. This acronyme consists of synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis and osteitis. Symptoms of this syndrome, which may not all be present, are pustulotic skin diseases (pustulosis palmoplantaris or severe acne) associated with osteoarticular lesions (mainly sternoclavicular hyperostosis, spondylarthropathies or chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis). The dermatological aspects of this syndrome are discussed in detail.

Qualitative and quantitative changes in cutaneous bacteria associated with systemic isotretinoin therapy for acne conglobata.

Quantitative cultures in 40 patients treated with systemic isotretinoin demonstrated a significant reduction in the anaerobic diphtheroid, Propionibacterium acnes within one month of therapy and a continued suppression during 5 months of treatment. This reduction persisted after discontinuation of isotretinoin therapy despite a return of sebum excretion to pretreatment levels. Surface aerobic bacteria showed a significant reduction in the total number of organisms and significant qualitative changes. Gram negative bacteria were sharply reduced in both the anterior nares and skin while Staphylococcus aureus recovery increased significantly.

Acne conglobata responding to buserelin, a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogue.

A 65-year-old man who had had acne conglabata since early adult life was treated with buserelin for advanced prostatic cancer. Within 1 month of starting therapy, the inflammatory acne had completely resolved and this coincided with remission of the carcinoma. Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogues may be useful in the treatment of resistant acne.
