Infective dermatitis associated with human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) (IDH) is a chronic dermatitis that has been observed in a variable proportion of HTLV-1-infected children. IDH may serve as an early clinical marker for HTLV-1 infection and an indicator of increased risk for developing other HTLV-1-associated conditions. Factors that lead only some infected children to develop IDH are poorly understood. The variable clinical presentation of IDH, in particular its chronicity, the morphology and distribution of the lesions, and its clinical resemblance to other cutaneous inflammatory conditions, make it necessary to distinguish it from other common dermatoses.
人类 T 细胞嗜淋巴细胞病毒 1 型(HTLV-1)相关感染性皮炎(IDH)是一种慢性皮炎,在一定比例的 HTLV-1 感染儿童中观察到。IDH 可作为 HTLV-1 感染的早期临床标志物,也是发生其他 HTLV-1 相关疾病的风险增加的指标。导致只有部分感染儿童发生 IDH 的因素尚不清楚。IDH 的临床表现多变,尤其是其慢性、病变的形态和分布,以及其与其他皮肤炎症性疾病的临床相似性,使其有必要与其他常见皮肤病相鉴别。
