[Staphylogenous Lyell's syndrome].

The scalded skin syndrome or Lyell syndrome can now be divided into two distinct forms. One form is associated with staphylococci that are usually phage group II Staphylococcus aureus, are penicillin resistant, and produce a protein exotoxin which produces epidermolysis by causing a split to develop in the epidermis between the stratum granulosum and the stratum spinosum. The other form is associated usually with drug reactions and is characterized by necrosis of the epidermis with a split between epidermis and dermis. The staphylococcal Lyell syndrome should be treated with penicillinase resistant antibiotics and not with corticosteroids; the non-staphylococcal form of the Lyell syndrome often requires systemic corticosteroids. Therefore the correct diagnosis must be established early. This is possible since the histopathology of the two forms is different.

[Bacterial skin infections in the dog (author's transl)].

The most common bacterial skin conditions in dogs are reviewed in the present paper. An introductory part on the pathogenesis of pyoderma and some universal morphological dermatological concepts is followed by a systematic study of superficial and deep forms of pyoderma. In addition to the bacterial diagnosis, the results of bacteriological examination of fifty-three dogs with pyoderma submitted to the University Clinic of small animal medicine are reported. Moreover, a guide to the institution of adequate therapy is suggested.

Acropustulosis of infancy.

Acropustulosis of infancy (Al) is a syndrome consisting of pruritic pustules that are found primarily on the extremities of infants. It is uncommon, but not rare, and persists about two years. In two infants in whom Al began at birth, there was a striking response to sulfones. There was no response to other therapy. Laboratory findings are not diagnostic for Al. Similar histopathologic changes (subcorneal pustules) can be found in other eruptions of infancy.

[Detection of a mutant HSV-1 in a patient presenting efflorescence on an eye lid].

A 9-month-old boy with impetigious blepharitis of the right eye was admitted to the Department of children and adolescents of the Kralovske Vinohrady University Hospital. NA isolated from lesion fluid was screened using real-time PCR based HSV 1/2 detection kit (Roche). Differentiation between HSV types 1 and 2 in this assay is based on variation of double-stranded DNA melting temperature (Tm), being 54 degrees C +/- 2,5 degrees C for HSV-1 and 66,5 degrees C +/- 2,5 degrees C for HSV-2. Since the amplified NA from the sample showed an atypical Tm of 59 degrees C, nested PCR was used for futher analysis: the presence of HSV-1 NA was confirmed by the latter. In spite of the atypical Tm value, the eyelid infection was responsive to acyclovir and resolved after intravenous Herpesin given for 5 days.
