“…A considerable part of the paediatric RTRs reported drug related skin manifestations on examination, which is in accordance with previous studies (5,6,13,14). Striae distensa and acne, considered side effects of steroids, were the dominant findings.…”

A few key publications report on the frequency of skin disorders in paediatric organ transplant recipients in Southern and Central Europe presenting cumulative incidences. We aimed to estimate frequencies of skin disorders both as cumulative incidences and prevalence data, and describe skin problems in paediatric renal transplant recipients in a Norwegian renal transplant population. Clinical examination and review of post-transplant skin diseases were conducted in 70 patients having performed renal transplantation before the age of 16 in the period 1983-2006. Viral warts were a common and persistent problem, whereas bacterial and fungal infections in the skin were few. Drug-related skin disorders were rather frequent, but usually reversible on dose reduction or change of medication. Pre-malignant and malignant skin disorders appeared only in patients > 30 years of age. Relatively high cumulative incidences and low prevalence data of most skin disorders were found in the examined patient cohort.

“…3,12,14,15 None of the dermatologic studies on transplanted children mention skin cancers during childhood. 5,17,18 In the largest series, skin carcinomas developed 12 to 15 years after transplantation (range 5.5-292 months), at an average age of 26 to 28 years. 4,10 The reversal of the squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) to basal cell carcinoma (BCC) ratio compared to the general population was even more pronounced than in adult transplant patients (2.8:1 vs. 1.7:1).…”

BACKGROUND. Organ transplant recipients taking immunosuppressants are at increased risk of skin cancer. Although several studies have been devoted to adult transplant patients, few data are available on the long-term skin malignancies following pediatric organ transplantation. OBJECTIVE. The objective of this study was to present the current state of knowledge on skin malignancies in patients who received their graft during childhood. METHODS. This study reviews data from the literature and includes our personal experience. RESULTS. Skin cancer is the most frequent malignancy following pediatric renal transplantation and the second most common r

“…Furthermore, enlarged fungiform papillae were a feature of psoriasiform fungiform hypertrophy in 3 patients with a history of psoriasis that developed guttate psoriasis following streptococcal pharyngitis ( 16 ). They were also seen in kidney transplant patients receiving cyclosporine A, where they were associated with either change in the microbial flora or poor oral hygiene ( 2 , 17 ) and with increased risk of graft rejection ( 2 ). It is not clear whether the lingual enlargement regresses with discontinuation of cyclosporine ( 2 ).…”

Background Transient lingual papillitis (TLP) is a common, under-diagnosed, inflammatory hyperplasia of one or multiple fungiform lingual that has an acute onset, and is painful and transient in nature. Material and Methods Eleven cases of TLP were diagnosed based on their clinical features. Information on demographics, clinical characteristics, symptoms, individual or family history of similar lesions, medical history, management and follow-up were extracted from the patients’ records. The English literature was reviewed on TLP differential diagnosis, pathogenesis and management. Results The study group included 8 females and 3 males (age: 10-53 years, mean age 31.7±12.88 years). Seven cases were classified as generalized form of TLP and 4 as localized form. Nine cases were symptomatic. Time to onset ranged from 1 to 14 days. A specific causative factor was not identified in any case and management was symptomatic.Conclusions Although TLP is not considered as a rare entity, available information is limited. Diagnosis is rendered clinically, while biopsy is required in cases with a differential diagnostic dilemma. TLP should be included in the differential diagnosis of acute, painful tongue nodules. Key words:Transient lingual papillitis, fungiform papillary glossitis, tongue, nodules.
