What's your assessment? Pityriasis rosea.

As a nurse practitioner in dermatology for over 15 years, Barbara Bielan has been fortunate to have worked with many superb clinicians who have shared their time and expertise in giving her a broad background in dermatology. The "What's Your Assessment?" series includes a short case presentation and differential diagnosis. It is followed by a discussion on the disease and the rationale used in each step of the assessment.

Pityriasis rosea and discoid eczema: dose related reactions to treatment with gold.

Sixteen cases of either a pityriasiform or discoid eczematous rash occurring in patients with rheumatoid arthritis receiving treatment with gold (sodium aurothiomalate and auranofin) were studied. The results suggest that this is a dose related, not allergic, reaction to gold. The development of this rash is not an absolute indication to stop treatment with gold. Control can often be effected with potent topical steroids or a reduction in the dose or frequency of treatment with gold.
