A b s t r a c tThe authors are presenting a rare case of recurrent acne fulminans (AF) in man with Crohn's disease (CD). First attak of AF as associated disorder was observed at the age of 21 with positivity rheumatoid factor (28.0 U/ml), Creactive protein (86.7 m/l), ANA (1:160), p-ANCA (1:40) and 82 erythrocyte sedimentation rate/1 hour. The second attak of AF was observed after the 4th infliximab (5mg/kg) administration, with azathioprine (100mg/day), with positivity Epstein-Barr (EBV Real Time PCR -1835 copies/ml). The effect of AF therapy was observed after methylprednisolone (0.5-1.0mg/kg/day) with isotretinoin (0.2-1.0mg/kg/day) administration, with continual infliximab administration.

“…It binds to the PD-1 receptor on T cells and inhibits the interaction with the ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2 on cancer cells. This enhances the body's immune response against the tumor (2–4). Based on this mode of action, diverse immune reactions are expected as adverse events.…”

For many types of cancer, immune checkpoint inhibitors have proven to be a highly effective treatment. The monoclonal anti-PD-1 antibody nivolumab stimulates the immune system and is one of the newest treatment options for non-small cell lung cancer. In doing so, immune checkpoint inhibitors can trigger many skin lesions that have not yet been completely investigated in their entirety. In this case report, pemphigus vulgaris is identified as a potential adverse event that occurs under the treatment with nivolumab. In addition to the standard methods, we examined our patient's samples with ex vivo confocal laser scanning microscopy. This is a new and innovative diagnostic method that uses vertical scanning to provide fast, high-resolution imaging of freshly excised tissue, even using fluorescently labeled antibodies.

“…Some girls and young women, as well as occasional male patients, are so distressed by what an outside observer perceives as minimal acne that they literally attack their lesions (1). The condition is referred to as excoriated acne, acne excoriata or acne excoriée (des jeunes filles).…”

“…If there are no evident acne lesions, some recommendations suggest only a careful and sensitive psychosocial approach to the patient with verbal, non-prescription-based treatment to somehow sufficiently reassure the patient that she is able to stop picking (1). Laser can reduce scarring due to excoriated acne (13).…”

Successful therapy of excoriated acne with Nd:YAG laser: a case report

Excoriated acne is a difficult challenge in daily practice. Patients generally fail to follow the most important measure: not to "clean" and manipulate their lesions. Because the literature tends to emphasize the mental aspect of this condition, patients with excoriated acne may be quickly classified as psychosomatic or even psychiatric cases, and dermatologists may be overlooking opportunities to help. This report presents the case of a young woman with excoriated acne and anorexia nervosa, treated with a combination of 1,064 nm Nd:YAG laser, standard acne topical therapy, and a reassuring, non-judgmental approach. The therapy resulted in complete remission after 2 months, which has remained stable during 3 years of follow-up.
