A narrative review of occupational solar ultraviolet radiation in Britain and skin cancer.
Occup Med (Lond)
January 2025
Institute of Occupational Medicine, Edinburgh EH14 4AP, UK.
Background: Occupational exposure to solar ultraviolet (UV) is known to cause malignant melanoma (MM) and non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC). However, knowledge of the causal associations has developed erratically.
Aims: This review aims to identify when it was accepted that workplace solar UV exposure could cause skin cancer and when it was recognized that there was a risk for outdoor workers in Britain, identifying the steps employers should have taken to protect their workers.
Phototoxic reaction to oral terbinafine due to Tinea capitis in a child.
Acta Dermatovenerol Croat

Prof. Ana Bakija-Konsuo, MD, PhD, Clinic for Dermatovenerology CUTIS, Vukovarska 22, Dubrovnik, Croatia;
We report the case of an 18-month-old boy who developed a phototoxic skin reaction to terbinafine on his scalp, ears, and face in the form of disseminated erythematous plaques, which resembled subacute lupus erythematosus (SCLE) in their clinical presentation. Skin changes appeared a short time after the boy was exposed to sunlight during the period of time when he was treated with oral terbinafine due to Microsporum canis fungal scalp infection. Tinea capitis is a common dermatophyte infection primarily affecting prepubertal children (1).

This study describes two siblings from consanguineous parents who exhibit intellectual disability, microcephaly, photosensitivity, bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, numerous freckles, and other clinical features that suggest a potential disruption of the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway. Whole exome sequencing (WES) identified a novel homozygous missense variant in the gene, which was predicted to be pathogenic. However, a subsequent peculiar audiometric finding prompted further investigation, revealing a homozygous deletion in the gene linked to neurosensorial hearing loss.

Article Synopsis
- Trichothiodystrophy (TTD) is a rare genetic disorder that presents with brittle hair, photosensitivity, scaly skin, and stunted growth, leading to a high mortality rate in children mainly due to infections.
- A case report highlights a five-year-old boy with these symptoms who was diagnosed with TTD after genetic testing during treatment for a dental infection.
- The report emphasizes the need for comprehensive evaluation of pediatric patients to improve diagnosis and care for genetic disorders like TTD, involving a collaborative approach among healthcare providers.
