Accessory Structures of the Skin: Sweat Glands

4.8K
Sweat glands or sudoriferous glands are one of the important accessory structures of the skin. They are small, coiled tubular structures located in the dermis, the middle layer of the skin. Sweat glands are responsible for producing and secreting sweat, a watery fluid that helps regulate body temperature and excrete waste products.
Sweat glands are classified as merocrine glands; that is, the secretions are excreted by exocytosis through a duct without affecting the cells of the gland. There...

Peripheral Arterial Disease II: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Evaluation

710
Clinical manifestationsPeripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) manifests through a range of symptoms, from the characteristic intermittent claudication to atypical presentations and severe complications in advanced stages. Intermittent claudication, a hallmark symptom of PAD, presents as exercise-induced muscle pain that typically resolves within minutes of rest. This pain is reproducible and stems from inadequate blood flow, leading to the accumulation of lactic acid produced during anaerobic...

Peripheral Artery Disease I: Introduction

646
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) predominantly results from atherosclerosis, which involves the accumulation of fatty deposits, or plaques, within the walls of arteries. This causes them to narrow and harden, significantly reducing blood flow. PAD predominantly affects the legs, particularly the arteries supplying the thighs and calves. In rare cases, it may involve other arteries, including those in the arms.Etiology of PAD:The principal cause of PAD is atherosclerosis, which results from fatty...

Accessory Structures of the Skin: Sebaceous Glands

5.8K
A sebaceous gland is a type of oil gland found almost all over the skin ( except palms and soles) and helps lubricate and waterproof the skin and hair. Most sebaceous glands are associated with hair follicles. They generate and excrete sebum, a mixture of lipids, onto the skin surface, thereby naturally lubricating the dry and dead layer of keratinized cells of the stratum corneum, keeping it pliable.
These glands that produce the oils on the skin and hair are holocrine glands. The mature...

Skin Diseases and Disorders

6.3K
Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...

Changes in Skin Color: Clinical Perspectives

4.2K
The first thing a clinician sees is the skin, so the examination of the skin should be part of any thorough physical examination. Most skin disorders are relatively benign, but a few, including melanomas, can be fatal if untreated. A couple of the more noticeable disorders, albinism and vitiligo, affect the appearance of the skin and its accessory organs.
Albinism
Albinism is a genetic disorder that affects (completely or partially) the coloring of skin, hair, and eyes. The defect is primarily...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Pathology
  • Medical Case Reports

Background:

  • Eccrine angiomatous hamartoma (EAH) is a rare benign neoplasm.
  • It typically presents as solitary or multiple lesions on distal extremities, often congenital or in childhood.
  • Adult-onset EAH, particularly multiple lesions, is exceptionally rare.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report a rare case of adult-onset multiple eccrine angiomatous hamartoma.
  • To describe the clinical presentation and characteristics of this rare condition in an adult.

Main Methods:

  • Case presentation of a 33-year-old male with symptomatic multiple EAH lesions.
  • Review of relevant literature on eccrine angiomatous hamartoma.

Main Results:

  • The patient presented with multiple symptomatic EAH lesions in adulthood.
  • This presentation is highly unusual given the typical age of onset.

Conclusions:

  • Adult-onset multiple eccrine angiomatous hamartoma is a rare clinical entity.
  • This case underscores the importance of considering rare diagnoses in atypical presentations.
