Parasitology Laboratory, Department of Medical Biology, Medical University of Warsaw, Litewska 14/16, 00-575 Warsaw, Poland.
Article Synopsis
- - Free-living amoebae (FLA) are common in various environments and can cause serious infections like amoebic encephalitis, which mainly affects people with weak immune systems, but other infections can occur in healthy individuals.
- - This study aimed to identify and analyze the presence of FLA in soil samples taken from parks and squares in Warsaw, finding that 78.2% of the samples tested positive for FLA growth.
- - The research revealed that the most frequently isolated genus was Acanthamoeba, particularly the T4 genotype, marking the first documentation of FLA in the Warsaw area and highlighting the potential health risks associated with these pathogens.

The Koebner phenomenon (KP), also known as the isomorphic response, describes the process by which new lesions that are clinically and histologically identical to a patient's existing skin disease develop following trauma. Many skin diseases exhibit this characteristic, with variations that include possible, questionable, and pseudo-Koebner reactions, with the latter category occurring due to infectious agents seeding at a trauma site. Laser application, a type of controlled skin injury used for improving cutaneous lesions and skin rejuvenation, is also considered a form of trauma.
