    Abstract Surgical treatments for vitiligo are a safe and effective treatment modality for select patients with vitiligo. Many techniques of vitiligo surgery exist, each with unique advantages and disadvantages. We reviewed the various surgical therapies and innovative approaches for vitiligo regenerative treatment reported in the literature. Surgical therapies can be subdivided into tissue grafting methods and cellular grafting methods. Tissue grafting methods mainly include mini punch grafts, suction blister roof grafts, and hair follicle grafts. Cellular grafting methods include cultured and non-cultured treatments. The efficacy needs to be improved largely due to the poor proliferation and quality of the autologous melanocytes. Rho-associated protein kinase inhibitor enhances primary melanocyte culture proliferation from vitiligo patients to prevent apoptosis. Innovative approaches using stem cell methods could prove invaluable in developing a novel cell therapy for patients suffering from vitiligo. We succeeded in inducing melanin pigmentation in mice skin in vivo using our human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived melanocytes. In addition, we reviewed melanocytorrhagy, detachment and transepidermal loss of melanocytes, and melanocyte-related adhesion molecules. These adhesion molecules include epithelial cadherin, discoidin domain receptor tyrosine kinase 1, glycoprotein non-metastatic melanoma protein B, macrophage migration inhibiting factor, 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1, and E26 transformation-specific 1.

    Abstract Sweet disease, also known as acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is a multisystem inflammatory disorder characterized by painful erythematous plaques and aseptic neutrophilic infiltration of various organs. It is also characterized by fever, polymorphonuclear leukocytosis, and painful erythematous cutaneous plaques. Cutaneous manifestations of Sweet disease are typically painful plaque-forming erythematous papules. Skin biopsies typically demonstrate dermal infiltration with neutrophils in the absence of vasculitis. Sweet disease is often associated with a hematological malignancy, especially acute myeloid leukemia or myeloid dysplasia syndrome. Sweet disease has clinical and laboratory features similar to those of Behçet's disease. Overlap exists between the clinical manifestations of Sweet disease and Behçet's disease. The neuro-Sweet disease is similar to the neuro-Behçet's disease. This article presents information on the pathogenesis, clinical approach, treatment, and expected evolution of these manifestations including the defference between neuro-Sweet disease and neuro-Behçet's disease. The possible role in this interesting association of Behçet's disease and Sweet disease is discussed and a review of the literature is presented.

    Abstract Adult-onset Still disease (AOSD) has been typically associated with an evanescent skin rash that appears during febrile episodes. Subsequently, reports of a more persistent rash have appeared in the literature, referred to as the atypical rash of AOSD. The atypical nonevanescent rash can be usually divided into dermographism-like, lichenoid, and dermatomyositis-like lesions. Some authors have suggested that AOSD with the atypical rash could be severe, with a poor prognosis. We describe the case of a Japanese woman with AOSD characterized by persistent pruritic lesions resembling those observed in heliotrope manifestation of dermatomyositis. We conducted a literature review of clinical cases of AOSD on MEDLINE and the Web of Science. We identified nine cases of atypical rash of the eyelids, heliotrope-like manifestation of AOSD in addition to our case. All nine patients were female and they had a mean age of 39.3 ± 2.8 years. Four (44.4%) patients had macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) or disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) as complications and our case was the only one associated with both MAS and DIC. When a clinician encounters a female patient with heliotrope-like rash resembling those observed in dermatomyositis, the underrecognition of the skin manifestations may result in delayed diagnosis of AOSD. We believe that physicians should identify this type of cutaneous lesion to diagnose AOSD earlier and administer adequate treatment. Although the contribution of tocilizumab to the occurrence of MAS has not been determined, careful observation should be considered during tocilizumab therapy in patients with active AOSD.

    Abstract Eosinophil activation in tissue might be associated with disease severity. Eosinophil cytolysis, a process of active cell death, has been referred to as eosinophil extracellular trap cell death (EETosis). In the present study, the authors investigated EETosis in the affected skin of four patients with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) using an immunofluorescence staining method. Immunofluorescence staining for myelin basic protein, galectin-10, and DNA revealed various degrees of EETosis and Charcot-Leyden crystals in skin tissue, suggesting the different degree of eosinophil activation status. The histopathological characteristic features may help physicians establish an earlier diagnosis of intractable eosinophilic-related disease including EGPA. Furthermore, ETotic eosinophil infiltration in perineurium of skin tissue might play a primary role in peripheral neuropathy of this disorder.
