Article Synopsis
- A case study highlights the development of a berloque-like nevus after a 23-year-old woman's hospitalization for toxic epidermal necrolysis due to severe adverse drug reactions.
- Four months after the initial skin damage healed, an extension of the nevus appeared in the blistered area that had been in contact with the skin lesion.
- The discussion suggests that the healing process involves cytokines and growth factors that promote nevus cell growth and suggests that interactions between skin repair components may limit the extent of nevus growth.
Article Synopsis
- - The text describes cases where patients experienced phototoxic reactions from fresh fig juice, leading to striped pigmentation on the arms and patchy pigmentation on the face after sun exposure.
- - It highlights the connection between this reaction and other dermatitis conditions, specifically "Berloque dermatitis" from citrus oils and bullous meadow dermatitis from heracleum juice.
- - The text also draws parallels between the furocoumarin reactions involved in fig dermatitis and those seen in PUVA therapy, which is a treatment for skin conditions.
Article Synopsis
- Berloque dermatitis cases have decreased over the past ten years, but milder cases still happen due to bergapten in perfumes.
- These milder cases can lead to unusual hyperpigmentation that may be misdiagnosed.
- The condition might also worsen melasma and is linked to other skin pigmentation issues like poikiloderma of Civatte and Riehl's melanosis.
Article Synopsis
- The term "berloque" is no longer used in contemporary French; the current term is "breloque."
- This suggests that "berloque-dermatitis" could be outdated or incorrect.
- The expression may have arisen from a confusion between the two terms due to a simple letter mix-up.
