Abstract
|
|
|
Choronic actinic dermatitis was recently proposed to be a syndrome of chronic photosensitivity that incudes photosensitive eczema, persitent light reaction, photosensitivity dermatitis and actinic reticuloid.
We report herein a case of chronic actinic dermatitis which occured in a 60-year-old man. He suffered from a chronic eczematous dermatitis affecting exposed skin and some covered area with a feature of erythroderma. Phototesting showed abnormal
photosensitivity to both UVB and UVA as well as to visible light. Skin biopsy specimens revealed histologic findings of spongiotic dermatitis in which dermal infiltrates were mainly consisted of T lymphocytes with suppressor T cells dominance on
immunohistochemistry.
