SUMMARY We report the provocation of localized psoriasis at sites application topical imiquimod, possibly evolving into a generalized flare. A patient with pre‐existing that had been stable for 14 years was treated imiquimod 5% cream daily 6 weeks to three superficial basal cell carcinomas. During treatment one lesions developed severe local skin reactions necessitating rest periods, and received only 18 applications in weeks. The other two were all 42 days.

To evaluate if new imiquimod formulations using a shorter treatment duration are safe and efficacious to treat anogenital warts.
Empiric treatment of sexually transmitted infections can cause unnecessary antibiotic use. We determined if near-to-patient-testing (NPT) for
Background The message of undetectable HIV viral load equals untransmissible (U=U) is important to reduce stigma. We examined Australian general practitioner (GP)s’ agreement and discussion with clients about U=U. Methods conducted an online survey through GP networks from April October 2022. All GPs working within Australia were eligible. Univariable multivariable logistic regression analyses performed identify factors associated with: (1) U=U; (2) discussing U=U clients. Results Of 703...
SUMMARY The short‐term efficacy of imiquimod 5% cream for the treatment primary superficial basal cell carcinoma has been established. This study investigated its following curettage (without electrodesiccation) nodular on trunk and limbs. Seventeen patients with a total 34 lesions were enrolled. Curettage was used to de‐bulk lesion confirm suitable histology. Lesions displaying more aggressive subtypes (such as micronodular or morpheoic components) excluded. treated daily 6 10 weeks cream....
The implementation of remote Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) determinations would greatly enhance the delivery specialist dermatological care to patients with severe psoriasis unable attend face-to-face consultations. Here we investigate feasibility determination PASI scores by comparing results digital image assessment.Twelve confirmed were recruited for study. Initially, two dermatologists scored at patients' usual scheduled visits, which time standardized images obtained. scoring...
Summary We report the successful use of topical imiquimod 5% cream for extensive multifocal, recurrent (post cryotherapy), biopsy‐proven Bowen's disease nose. Treatment was applied on a once‐a‐day regimen, and total 32 applications over 9 weeks were used. A florid local skin reaction occurred early in treatment, necessitating rest period decreasing frequency application. The coexistent with multifocal superficial basal cell carcinoma (BCC) that had partial response. Persistent BCC at 4 post...
SUMMARY A 23‐year‐old man presented with an atrophic lesion on his left anterior shoulder that had been present for at least 10 years. previous biopsy suggested a fibrohistiocytic origin; however, clinically it resembled morphoea or atrophoderma, and the was observed. Fifteen months later, noted to have grown slightly. repeat showed dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, storiform spindle cell proliferation positive CD34 staining. The excised 3‐cm margin. Awareness of this rare presentation may...
Pruritus without visible dermatoses may be the first manifestation of hematological malignancies such as Hodgkin disease, chronic lymphocytic leukemia and mycosis fungoides (MF) precede definitive diagnosis by weeks to years.We present a case 'invisible' MF associated with generalized pruritus in an elderly patient.Our highlights importance performing skin biopsies patients unexplained pruritus, especially absence cutaneous lesions. This can prompt clinician consider possible underlying...
Abstract Introduction Actinic keratoses (AK) are treated to reduce the risk of progression squamous cell carcinoma and for symptomatic cosmetic benefits. The objective this observational study was generate real-life data on use daylight photodynamic therapy with methyl aminolevulinate cream (MAL DL-PDT) in treating mild moderate facial/scalp AK. Methods A multicenter, prospective, conducted Australia patients receiving a single treatment MAL DL-PDT Efficacy assessed 3 months after by...
Imiquimod 3.75% cream is a new formulation intended for daily self‐application. The objective of this study was to characterize serum imiquimod pharmacokinetics under maximal use conditions. Adults with ≥8 warts or total wart area ≥100 mm 2 applied up 1 packet (250 mg cream, 9.375 imiquimod) once 3 weeks. Blood obtained prior doses 1, 7, 14, and 21 at selected time points after 21. Eighteen patients (13 men 5 women) median count 16 60 were enrolled. Day mean (SD) C max 0.49 (0.37) ng/mL, AUC...
Porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) is the most common type of porphyria worldwide and often initially diagnosed when cutaneous manifestations arise. We present two patients where misdiagnosis PCT occurred due to condition masquerading as epidermolysis bullosa acquisita histologically. In with undifferentiated bullous/erosive skin conditions occurring in photo-distributed regions, should be considered differential diagnosis irrespective histopathological findings on biopsies further investigated...
Syringomas are benign adnexal neoplasms of eccrine lineage, which occur most commonly in the periorbital region middle-aged females. These cutaneous lesions rarely on scalp, typically asymptomatic and predominantly cosmetic significance. Involvement scalp may be indistinguishable from that scarring alopecia. We present an unusual case clinically inapparent syringomas occurring a 56-year-old female with alopecia who was subsequently diagnosed lichen planopilaris after repeated biopsy. In...
Background Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a safe and effective medication for preventing HIV acquisition. We examined Australian general practitioners' (GP) knowledge of PrEP efficacy, characteristics associated with ever prescribing barriers to prescribing. Methods conducted an online cross-sectional survey GPs working in Australia between April October 2022. performed univariable multivariable logistic regression analyses identify factors with: (1) the belief that was at least 80%...
