AI Article Synopsis

  • - Epidermal multinucleated keratinocytes, also known as epidermal grape cells, are important for diagnosing certain skin conditions when no viral infections are present.
  • - Their presence can indicate dermatoses caused by external factors like irritation or aggression, including dermatitis artefacta and factitial dermatitis.
  • - Thermal damage, such as cryogenic injury, is one of the potential causes linked to the appearance of these cells.

Article Abstract

Epidermal multinucleated keratinocytes, or epidermal grape cells, in the absence of any viral infection, are an important histological finding and a clue for the diagnosis of dermatoses induced by external irritation or aggression, dermatitis artefacta, and facticial dermatitis. Thermal damage such as cryogenic injury is part of the spectrum of causes to be evoked in case of their presence.
