既往:醋酸氟轻松乳膏(激素)和四环霉素联合治疗化脓性毛囊炎和结节性的痒疹4周,皮疹无明显好转。皮疹活检:伴有嗜酸性粒细胞的混合性炎性浸润,提示:药物相关性皮疹。停止所有的药物后,皮疹并没有好转。
最后,通过对手部的皮肤刮取检查(按疥疮标本准备),在光镜下看到了疥螨(图B)。

疥疮是一种由疥螨引起的传染性疾病,典型症状是瘙痒,晚上尤甚。由于反复的抓挠,未经治疗时可能会与皮肤广泛性湿疹化有关(?)。同时可能引起继发感染,如脓疱疮,脓疱,甲沟炎或疖等。

临床上,抓伤和脓疱的掩盖,使得疥螨隧道很难被发现。由于疥疮患者皮下可能仅有6-10只疥螨,因此,活检标本常常显示为没有隧道和疥螨的非特异性改变。
