Nodular Amyloidosis of the Penis

Abstract

Lace bug infestations may have health consequences, including nuisance biting and cutaneous and systemic reactions. Clinicians should be aware of the existence of this insect with its newly recognized bloodsucking ability as potentially responsible for skin lesions and pruritus that can cause real discomfort and anxiety. Bites from the lace bug may also be considered in the differential diagnosis of bedbug bites 5 and scabies. 8

Efficacy of the treatment with both H2‐antagonist and leukotriene antagonist concurrently in combination with H1‐antihistamines for chronic idiopathic urticaria

“…3 It has been reported that treatment with both H2A and LA in combination with sgH1AH is effective for many CIU patients. 4,5 This study suggests that treatment with both H2A and LA in combination with sgH1AH increases the therapeutic effect for CIU.…”

Not All Cauliflowers Are HPV: Answer

“…1 Less commonly, it can present as nodular amyloidosis where the amyloid protein is immunoglobulin-derived from plasma cells, serum amyloidassociated protein-derived, amyloid protein P-derived or in rare case reports, also keratinocyte-derived. [1][2][3][4] The involvement of the glans penis by primary cutaneous amyloidosis is a rare condition with less than 20 reported cases in literature to date. 2,3,5 These patients typically present with an asymptomatic, single, tan/yellow, waxy nodule, or plaque on the glans.…”

Given the rarity and subtle findings of this condition, the diagnosis can be challenging clinically and histologically.…”

Primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis of lower leg with 12 years follow‐up

“…3 The macular and lichenoid types integrate amyloid material from keratinocytes and deposit within the papillary dermis. 4 The nodular form can infiltrate the subcutis. 5 Nodular primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis (NPLCA) can appear as plaques or nodules that are waxy, yellow, and are more often on the face and leg.…”
