Abstract
|
|
|
Reactive perforating collagenosis is one of a range of essential perforating disorders and is characterized by the transepithelial elimination of altered collagen. Two types have been recognized: the inherited, or childhood form and the acquired, or adult form. Acquired reactive perforating collagenosis is associated with systemic diseases, especially diabetes mellitus and/or renal failure. We report that a low-dose allopurinol showed dramatic effects on acquired reactive perforating collagenosis, which was associated with hypothyroidism and chronic renal failure caused by diabetic nephropathy.
