SU‐GG‐I‐170: Differentiation of Seborrheic Keratosis and Verruca Plana with Reflectance Confocal Microscopy: A Preliminary Study
Medical Physics, 2010Co-Authors: M Gao, M LiuAbstract:Background: Seborrheic keratoses (SK) are the most common benign tumor in older individuals, Sometimes the differentiation of SK and Verrucca Plana (VP) is a challenge. Reflectance Confocal Microscopy (RCM) has been proved to be useful in the diagnosis of skin diseases; however, to date, there is no report on the differential study of the two diseases with RCM. Objectives: To investigate whether RCM could be used in the differentiation of SK and VP. Methods: We recruited 10 patients with typical lesions, of SK and 10 patients with typical VP lesions, imaged with RCM and biopsied to obtain the features under RCM images based on histology analysis. Then, we attempt to summarize and refine those imaging characteristics collected to obtain the most significant ones. All the cases with lesions suggestive of SK or VP were advised to undergo imaging with RCM, and if RCM imaging reflected discordantly with the clinical diagnosis, a biopsy was suggested for the exact lesion imaged. Those cases with RCM and histology results were collected. Finally, two clinical dermatologists, who had no previous experience with RCM, were tested with the simplified features of RCM images to differentiate the suspected lesions of SK and VP among the cases collected. Results: In total, there were 58 cases with RCM images and histology results collected, in which, 40 cases were diagnosed as SK and 18 cases as VP by histology. The two blinded dermatologists' judgments were identical to histology analysis. Conclusion: RCM proved to be valuable in the differential diagnosis of SK and VP. The simplified characteristics are easily understood and acceptable to those with no previous experience of RCM. Key words: reflectance confocal microscopy, RCM, seborrheic keratosis, Verruca Plana

Verruca Plana on a tattoo: A case report.
Medicine, 2020Co-Authors: Yan Jing Chen, Owais Nabi, Ping Diao, Ruo Yu WanAbstract:Rationale Tattooing is a procedure where ink is inserted typically in the intraepidermal space of the skin. Multiple incidences of viral infections following tattooing which lead to warts have been reported in recent years. The aim of this report was to show a relatively rare adverse effect after tattooing - Verruca Plana. Patient concerns A 27-year-old female presented to our department with complains of multiple verrucous papules over her 2-year-old tattoo without itch. Diagnoses Pathological investigation confirmed the diagnosis as Verruca Plana. Interventions The patient was treated with 3 cycles of liquid nitrogen cryotherapy and 5% imiquimod cream for 5 months. Outcomes A significant improvement in her lesions was observed after the combined treatment. Lessons Clinically, Verruca Plana post-tattooing is relatively less reported. We need to combine clinical manifestations with pathological results to arrive at a definitive diagnosis. Besides, there are a large numbers of post-tattoo complications and various routes of virus inoculation. Therefore, it is important for medical professionals to caution people before considering to have a tattoo.

an open comparative clinical study on the efficacy and safety of 10 trichloroacetic acid 25 trichloroacetic acid and cryotherapy for Verruca Plana
Cutaneous and Ocular Toxicology, 2015Co-Authors: Fatma Pelin Cengiz, Nazan EmirogluAbstract:AbstractObjective: Although there are several methods to treat Verruca Plana, warts do not respond well to the common therapeutic options. In this study, we compared the safety and efficacy of 10% trichloroacetic acid, 25% trichloroacetic acid, and cryotherapy for the treatment of warts caused by Verruca Plana.Methods: Ten percent and 25% trichloroacetic acid were applied to warts weekly until all lesions cleared. Cryotherapy was performed by liquid nitrogen spray for 5–10 seconds for each lesion per week until the lesions cleared. The number of Verruca Plana lesions and adverse effects were evaluated five times during the treatment (the initial visit, week 2, week 4, week 6, and week 8).Results: The number of lesions decreased through week 8 for all three treatments, and the reductions in the mean numbers of lesions were statistically similar (p > 0.05). Those in the cryotherapy group exhibited more erythema, pain, erosions, bullae, and hyperpigmentation (p < 0.001, p < 0.001, p < 0.001, p < 0.05, and p ...

Clinical observation on treating multiple Verruca Plana with autoimplantation technique and thymopeptides enteric-coated tablets
Hainan Medical Journal, 2012Co-Authors: Chen Wei-minAbstract:Objective To observe the clinical effect and safety of treating multiple Verruca Plana with autoimplantation technique and thymopeptides enteric-coated tablets. Methods Sixty-three patients with Verruca Plana were treated with autoimplantation technique and thymopeptides enteric-coated tablets. The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions were evaluated 12 weeks after treatment. Results Of the 63 patients, 57 (90.5%) were cured, and 6 (9.5%) were found with no obvious effects. Conclusion Autoimplantation technique combined with thymopeptides enteric-coated tablets is an effective and safe method in the treatment of Verruca Plana, with no obvious adverse reactions.
