Facial discoid dermatosis (FDD) is a recently described condition comprising discrete facial papulo-squamous lesions. We report three cases that clinically and histologically resemble FDD and demonstrate its resistance to treatment. Awareness of this new clinical entity will allow early diagnosis and the ability to make patients aware that there is unlikely to be a successful treatment. However, our study suggests that although FDD can persist for many years, it appears to remain stable.
面部盘状皮肤病(FDD)是一种最近被描述的疾病,由离散的面部丘疹鳞屑性病变组成。我们报告了三例临床和组织学上类似于FDD的病例,并证明了其对治疗的抵抗性。认识到这种新的临床实体将有助于早期诊断,并使患者意识到不太可能有成功的治疗方法。然而,我们的研究表明,虽然FDD可能持续多年,但它似乎保持稳定。
