Abstract

A 43-year-old woman developed annular and pustular cutaneous lesions preceded by tiny yellow pustules coating the surface of the oral mucosa. The clinical, histological and immunopathological evidence clearly showed that the patient had pyodermatitis-pyostomatitis vegetans. It is suggested that this disease is a distinct entity which should be differentiated from pemphigus vegetans.

[Clinical evaluation of female urinary incontinence].

EXAMINATION: Clinical evaluation of stress and urge incontinence is always necessary before therapeutic decisions. Full bladder examination may reveal stress incontinence during cough when cervico-urethral hypermobility is suspected, and leak during Vasalva manoeuvre when incontinence is due to intrinsic sphincter deficiency. OBJECTIVE SCORES: Pad test objectives the quantitative importance of incontinence. Symptom scores allow intra and inter individual comparisons. Psychosocial implications are studied with specific quality of life scales. They allow better therapeutic strategies in the management of urge and stress urinary incontinence. Objective evaluation of the different treatments and medico-economic approach of incontinence are thus possible.

[Dermatoscopic diagnosis of cutaneous malignant melanoma. Secondary prophylaxis].

During the last four decades the incidence of malignant melanoma has increased seven fold. Clinically, it is often difficult to distinguish malignant melanoma from a benign naevus. The macroscopic clinical ABCD rule and the Glasgow 7-point checklist are didactically helpful, but inaccurate with many false positive and negative diagnoses. Dermatoscopy performed by a trained physician has increased the diagnostic accuracy to a sensitivity of 89% and specificity of 80% (meta-analysis of 11 studies). The dermatoscopic ABCD rule and the Risk Stratification method (RS) are reviewed.
