Abstract

Aims: Urticarial dermatitis is a clinicopathologic condition that was defined in 2006 and it is characterized clinically by intensely pruritic, urticarial excoriated papules and/or plaques or urticarial and eczematous excoriated patches. This article is intended to present a case series. methods: In this study, six cases with urticarial dermatitis that were diagnosed histopathologically between October 2015 and may 2016 were evaluated retrospectively. Results: six (three women, three men) patients were included, they had a mean age of 39.3 years. The complaints of the patients were present for a mean duration of 5.7 years. The lesions were located mostly in the lower extremity in the form of erythematous, excoriated papules and patches. Topical corticosteroid, antihistamine and oral colchicine treatment were recommended in all cases. All cases received significant benefit from the treatment. After an average of 11.3 months follow up period it was learnt that their complaints recurred mildly several times, especially with stress, and these complaints were relieved with the use of the previous treatment for a few days by the patients. Conclusions: Urticarial dermatitis is an idiopathic and possibly auto-inflammatory clinicopathologic condition. In the treatment of urticarial dermatitis, colchicine and antihistamines are effective in controlling symptoms, but relapse can always be expected.

Özet

Ürtikeryal dermatit 2006 yılında tanımlanmış, klinik olarak yoğun kaşıntılı, ürtikeryal ekskoriye papüller ve/veya plaklar ya da ürtikeryal ve ekzematöz ekskoriye yamalar şeklinde görülebilen tedavisi zor kliniko-patolojik bir durumdur. Bu yazıda vaka serisi sunulması amaçlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada Ekim 2015 - mayıs 2016 tarihleri arasında histopatolojik olarak ürtikeryal dermatit tanısı almış altı olgu retrospektif olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmaya dahil edilen altı olgunun (üç kadın, üç erkek) yaş ortalaması 39,3 yıldı. Hastaların şikayetleri ortalama 5,7 yıldır devam etmekteydi. Lezyonlar en sık alt ekstremiteye yerleşen eritemli ekskoriye papüller ve yamalar şeklindeydi. Tüm olgulara topikal kortikosteroid, antihistaminik ve oral kolşisin tedavisi önerildi. Tüm olgular bu tedaviden belirgin fayda gördü. Ortalama 11,3 ay takip sonunda hastaların şikayetleri özellikle stresle arada hafif tekrarlıyor ve eski tedavilerini bir kaç gün kullanma ile şikayetleri geriliyordu. Ürtikeryal dermatit idyopatik ve muhtemelen oto-enflamatuvar klinikopatolojik bir durumdur. Ürtikeryal dermatit tedavisinde kolşisin ve antihistaminikler semptomları kontrol altına almada etkilidir ancak yine de nüks her zaman beklenebilir.
