Identification of mononuclear cells in cell suspension from cutaneous infiltrates freed by a suction blister method.

Mononuclear cells were liberated from superficial skin inflammations by a suction blister method which yielded a sufficient number of cells for histochemical and immunocytochemical analysis. The cell population consisted mainly of T cells which were identified as sheep red blood cell rosettes. Very few B cells were found as rosettes with immunobeads. Macrophages and eosinophils were found in varying numbers and they were identified histochemically. The method is suitable for studying nontumorous skin infiltrates.

[Melanoma and dysplastic nevus after 8 years of topical Caryolysine].

A 48-year-old woman with poikiloderma atrophicans vasculare was treated with topical mechlorethamine, applied three times weekly, for eight years. After five years treatment she developed nine melanocytic naevi on covered skin. The naevi spread for the next three years and a surgical excision was performed. Pathological examination revealed one level II SSM, one level I SSM and seven junctional naevi with focal dysplasia or melanocytic hyperplasia. The development of melanoma and dysplastic naevi after topical mechlorethamine has not been previously reported. However it seems likely that mechlorethamine was the causative agent. As for the mechlorethamine's imputability in this case, we have used a method combining intrinsic identification of adverse drug responsibility's score, based on the clinical case and on extrinsic identification based on literature evaluation. We suggest that mechlorethamine could act as UV light.

Phototherapy of pityriasis lichenoides.

Eleven patients with chronic pityriasis lichenoides chronica were treated with topically applied bland emollient cream and minimally erthemogenic doses of UV radiation from fluorescent sunlamps. The conditions of all patients cleared completely in an average of 29 treatments, requiring an average UV dose of 388 millijoules/sq cm at clearance. Phototherapy provides a convenient effective outpatient therapy for pityriasis lichenoides chronica.

[Skin manifestations of Still's disease in adults. Apropos of 4 cases].

The authors report four new cases of Still's disease in adult. Each time, the clinical picture associated the following triad: fever, joint involvement and skin rashes. The latter consisted in non-pruritic but sensitive maculo-papular and disseminated lesions, the mean course of which lasted 24 to 48 hours and were readily accompanied by the two other components of the basic clinical triad. Laboratory investigations were non-specific but constantly included a polymorphonuclear leucocytosis and a raised ESR, the mean value of which reached 80 mm in the 1st hour. Antinuclear factors were not demonstrated, but circulating immune complexes were found on several occasions in three out of the four reported cases. Histopathological changes observed were those of a superficial and mid cutis edema, associated with a diffuse or perivascular infiltrate in which either mononuclears or polymorphonuclears were prominent. Dermal vessels involvement appeared rather weak, including swelling of the walls by edema with focal fibrinoid necrosis. Direct immunofluorescence showed mainly IgG, IgA and C3 vascular deposits. Based on these data, an immune pathology is discussed, besides the more classic infections pathogenesis.

[Pityriasis lichenoides (author's transl)].

A review of the literature concerning the pityriasis lichenoides and the study of 34 personal cases show that three main clinical patterns are found in pityriasis lichenoides: maculo-papular, leukomelanodermal, necrotic. The course is very variable: rarely seven weeks, more often seven months and sometimes seven years. The disease is issued from an angiitis including a mostly lymphocytic infiltration. The epidermis is secondarily invaded by inflammatory cells and shows focal parakeratosis. There is no specific immunologic disorder: immunohistopathologic study is generally normal (rarely IgM or C3 deposits); no circulating immune complex is found. Some patients improved with dapsone or photochemotherapy.
