“…Despite the above quoted statistical information regarding the separate coexistence of each of the mentioned skin diseases with DM, the literature concerning a conjoint appearance of several of these cutaneous disorders in the same patient includes case reports demonstrating combinations of only a few of these skin conditions (43)(44)(45)(46)(47)(48). The actual occurrence of seven cutaneous manifestations in the same individual is, to our knowledge, unique.…”

Background The Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome (HPS) is a genetically heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by oculocutaneous albinism, bleeding diathesis, and systemic complications. It is the most common genetic disorder in Puerto Rico. These patients are at a significant risk of developing a variety of skin complications and little is known about the prevalence of dermatologic diagnoses in this population. Objectives To report dermatologic manifestations in patients with Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome (HPS). Secondary aims include skin concerns, sun protection habits, barriers to dermatologic care, and skin cancer knowledge. Methods Cross-sectional study with twenty-nine Puerto Rican patients who carried a clinical diagnosis of HPS type 1 or type 3 through a telephonic questionnaire. Results Twenty-nine patients participated with a mean (SD) age of 37.3 (16.8) years and the majority were female (69%). The most common diagnoses were skin cancer (34.5%), acne (34.5%), bacterial skin infections (34.5%), warts (24%), urticaria (17.2%), and psoriasis (17.2%). The most common skin concerns were dry skin (62.1%), hair loss (58.9%), redness (34.5%), moles (31%), and rash (31%). The most common sun protection behavior was wearing a shirt that covers the shoulders (93.1%, often or always) and the least common was wearing a hat (24.1%, often or always). Higher income was significantly associated with being more likely to use sunscreen often or always (OR = 3.38, 95% CI 1.02–11.18, p = 0.04). Those in northern urban areas were significantly less likely to report barriers to dermatologic care (OR = 0.13, 95% CI 0.02–0.76, p = 0.02). Conclusions This study provides an important overview of the most common self-reported skin manifestations in patients with HPS. Unfortunately, a high prevalence of cutaneous malignancy was reported. The results stress the need for adequate care and potential interventions to promote sun protection behaviors and skin cancer prevention.

“…The disorder has been reported in association with several endocrinopathies of autoimmune nature, including thyroid diseases, adrenal insufficiency, diabetes mellitus, and autoimmune type chronic active hepatitis (5-7). In addition, vitiligo has been described in association with alopecia areata, lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, myasthenia gravis, chronic subcutaneous candidiasis, pernicious anemia, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis (8)(9)(10)(11). Scattered reports exist on vitiligo in association with various disorders, such as derrnatitis herpetifonnis, acromegaly, parapsoriasis, erythema dyschromicum perstans, porphyria cutanea tarda, and lichen sclerosis et atrophicus (12)(13)(14)(15).…”

A 45-year-old Korean man had two distinct types of hypopigmented lesions on the forehead and back: vitiligo and nevus depigmentosus (ND). The hypopigmented macules on the forehead were incidentally discovered 15 days previously and responded well to steroid therapy. The hypopigmented macule on the back had been present since birth, was stable in size, and showed no response to steroid therapy. There were no remarkable differences between the two lesions in routine histopathology or Fontana-Masson staining. However, the lesion on the back was shown to contain melanocytes in electron microscopy (EM).
