Pityriasis Rosea (PR) is a common skin condition with unclear causes, and the study aims to investigate its epidemiology, clinical features, and supporting diagnostic methods.
The research involved 50 patients, analyzing their demographics, symptoms, and diagnostic findings through dermoscopy and histopathology, revealing that PR is more common in men (mean age 30.8 years) and often presents atypically in 40% of cases.
Key findings included common dermoscopic features like red backgrounds and scale patterns, while histopathological analysis showed significant indicators such as spongiosis and lymphocytic infiltrate; however, the study's sample size was limited due to COVID-19 and lacked follow-up data.
