Sézary Syndrome: universal redness with small-focus recesses. small spotted scaling. massive itching, pain at times. here detailed picture of the right arm
acrodermatitis continua suppurativa. chronic, red, rough plaques with recurrent pustular formation and onychodystrophies. pressure dolence. primary efflorescence (subcorneal pustules) and general symptoms are indicative. in the advanced course, acral skin and bone atrophies were observed in addition to the pronounced onychodystrophies.
Venous leg ulcer. large ulcer surrounding the distal third of the lower leg and the region of the outer ankle (gaiter ulcer). sharp edges of the wet, barely covered ulcer area. no indication of AVK.
Acne, steroid acne. detail magnification: Disseminated, 1-4 mm large, reddish papules in a 20-year-old patient under continuous peroral steroid therapy
Prurigo gestationis: 32-year-old female patient in the 6th month of pregnancy with increasing, severe itching, pruriginous rash; fresh effglorescence is not detectable, only scratched papules.
Balanitis plasmacellularis. several months of therapy resistant, itching and burning, sharply defined, bizarrely configured, lacquer-like glossy red plaque on the glans penis and the adjacent preputial leaf in a 66-year-old diabetic. course of the disease has been changing for 1 year, healing in between. at the beginning of the disease several areas were already affected (important differential diagnostic distinction to erythroplasia).
Angiosarcoma of the head and facial skin. slow, chronic progression without subjective complaints. initially contusiform, blue-red discolored skin, later angiomatous nodules and the development of multiple satellite metastases.
Porphyria cutanea tarda: close-up. older scars marked by stars. vertical arrows: encrusted erosions after traumta; vertical arrows: bulging (subepithelial - the entire epidermis forms the firm bladder roof) fresh areactive blisters (the blisters appear as if from nowhere. no signs of inflammation!)
Amelanotic acrolentiginous malignant melanoma: slowly growing nodule known for several years; increasing nail destruction in the last six months, also weeping and bleeding, sometimes slight pain; encircled and marked with an arrow, deep-seated pigment remains, which suggest the diagnosis "malignant melanoma".
Rosacea. stage II rosacea (rosacea papulopustulosa) Detail enlargement: Multiple, individually or grouped standing inflammatory papules, pustules and papulopustules as well as flat, red spots on the forehead and cheek area of a 62-year-old patient
Nodular or nodular basal cell carcinoma: Relatively inconspicuous, non-symptomatic, red nodule with a smooth surface (see incident light image as inlet); the bizarre (tumor) vessels of the basal cell carcinoma become visible in incident light.
Basal cell carcinoma, nodular. solitary, 1.0 x 1.2 cm large, broad-based, firm, painless nodule, with a shiny, smooth parchment-like surface covered by ectatic, bizarre vessels. Note: There is no follicular structure on the surface of the nodule (compare surrounding skin of the bridge of the nose with the protruding follicles).
