AI Article Synopsis
- Warty Dyskeratoma (WD) is a rare skin condition characterized by single or multiple papular or nodular lesions, found on the skin or oral mucosa.
- Histologically, WD features a cup-shaped skin structure with a specific combination of epidermal conditions, including hyperparakeratosis and dyskeratosis.
- Dermoscopy findings in a case of post-inflammatory WD included a distinctive eight-shaped whitish collarette and brown pigmentation, aiding in the differentiation from other skin tumors, although the methods used are not specific.
Article Abstract
Warty Dyskeratoma (WD) is a rare condition consisting in single or multiple papular or nodular lesions of the skin or of the oral mucosamucosa. Histologically, a cupshaped epidermal invagination centred by a plug of epidermal hyperparakeratosis with suprabasal acantholysis and dyskeratosis is typically observed. A case of post-inflammatory WD, which was also observed by dermoscopy, is described. Dermoscopy showed an eight-shape whitish collarette surrounded by light brown pigmentation. A central white structureless area with an adjacent rosette were observed. Some small rust-coloured blood crusts were also observed in the centre of the lesion; no prominent vascular pattern was detected. The etiopathogenesis of this benign neoplasm could be multifactorial. Dermoscopy of WD is not specific but may help to ruling out other skin tumors.

In addition to being a drainage system, the lacrimal ducts actively defend the eye through the action of the lacrimal pump, the presence of resident flora (lacriome) and the mucosa-associated immune tissue. Infection occurs when mucosal immune functions are overwhelmed. Lacrimal infection is a vicious circle, in which infection leads to inflammation and post-inflammatory sequelae, themselves a source of occlusion and stagnation, which in turn encourages infection.
