Therapy-Resistant, Spontaneously Remitting Generalized Neutrophilic Eccrine Hidradenitis in a Healthy Patient Decreases the Expression of Dermcidin in Affected Eccrine Glands
We describe a healthy 69-year-old Japanese man with generalized neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis (NEH). He visited our outpatient clinic with a 15-year history of disseminated pruritic papules on his trunk and extremities; the eruptions, however, were limited to the summer months.

متن کاملNeutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis in a patient with Behçet's disease.
Patients with Behçet's disease may develop multiple mucocutaneous manifestations, several of which are mediated by neutrophils. These include aphthous ulcers, pseudofolliculitis, acneform lesions, and pathergy.

متن کاملA Case of Neutrophilic Eccrine Hidradenitis in an Infant
relatively rare neutrophilic dermatosis and first described as a transient and benign complication of various chemotherapy regimens for acute leukemia. More recently, NEH has been observed in other conditions, such as infections or drugs, before the diagnosis of malignancy and even generally healthy individuals. Furthermore, there were several reports of idiopathic palmoplantar hidradenitis, wh...

It must be distinguished from infections, drug eruptions, leukaemia cutis or other forms of skin diseases. As it is self-limiting, establishing the diagnosis will avoid unnecessary treatment for infections or changes in drug therapy.
