Abstract:
Keratosis pilaris (KP) is a common disorder of follicular keratinization characterized by keratotic follicular papules with varying degrees of perifollicular erythema. Keratosis pilaris affects up to half of normal children and up to three-quarters of children with atopic dermatitis. KP is prominent during adolescence and less common in older people, but it may occur in children and adults of all ages. In this report, we describe the case of a 13-year-old boy known to have CHARGE syndrome who developed generalized keratosis pilaris after testosterone injections. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of generalized keratosis pilaris induced by testosterone injection.
摘要:
毛囊角化病(KP)是一种常见的毛囊角化病,其特征是角化性毛囊丘疹伴不同程度的毛囊周围红斑。毛发角化病影响多达一半的正常儿童和多达四分之三的特应性皮炎儿童。KP在青春期突出,在老年人中较少见,但它可能发生在所有年龄段的儿童和成人。在这份报告中,我们描述了一例已知患有CHARGE综合征的13岁男孩,他在注射睾酮后出现全身性毛发角化病.据我们所知,这是第一例报道的由睾酮注射引起的全身性毛发角化病。
