Intertrigo (intertriginous dermatitis) is an inflammatory condition of the skin folds, induced or aggravated by heat, moisture, maceration, friction, and lack of air circulation. Intertrigo can become secondarily infected. Three cases of intertrigo are described herein which presented with greenish-blue staining of underclothing. Cultures revealed Pseudomonas aeruginosa which is a gram-negative aerobic bacillus that produces the pigments pyocyanin and pyoverdin that responsible for this characteristic hue. All three patients responded to a course of oral ciprofloxacin with resolution of the intertriginous dermatitis. Therefore, greenish-blue staining of clothing is an important indicator for pseudomonal intertrigo.
擦烂红斑(间擦疹性皮炎)是皮肤褶皱处的一种炎症性疾病,由热、潮湿、浸渍、摩擦和空气流通不畅诱发或加重。擦烂红斑可继发感染。本文描述了3例擦烂红斑患者,其内衣出现蓝绿色染色。培养结果显示为铜绿假单胞菌,这是一种革兰氏阴性需氧杆菌,可产生绿脓菌素和绿脓杆菌荧光素,正是这些色素导致了这种特征性色调。所有3例患者经口服环丙沙星治疗一个疗程后,间擦疹性皮炎均得到缓解。因此,衣物的蓝绿色染色是铜绿假单胞菌所致擦烂红斑的一个重要指标。
