Acquired perforating dermatosis (APD) is a debilitating and itchy skin disease. Its diagnosis is based on biopsy and the treatment is not very clear. It is not well established as to how wide spread it is in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD) and its implications in this population have not been well studied. Here we present a case of APD that developed in a patient on PD. Its pathology and treatment options are reviewed. More studies are needed to assess the prevalence of APD in PD population.
获得性穿通性皮肤病(APD)是一种使人衰弱且伴有瘙痒的皮肤疾病。其诊断基于活检,而治疗方法尚不明确。关于它在腹膜透析(PD)患者中的广泛程度以及对该人群的影响尚未得到充分研究。在此,我们报告一例在PD患者中发生的APD病例。对其病理及治疗选择进行了回顾。需要更多研究来评估APD在PD人群中的患病率。
