Cutaneous and systemic signs of acute and chronic arsenic poisoning may be vague. Thus, an awareness of these signs is crucial to prevent late or missed diagnoses. This is especially true in non-endemic countries where individuals may present decades after exposure, or may still be ingesting arsenic via a non-classical exposure. Existing literature emphasizes several well-known cutaneous presentations of arsenic toxicity while ignoring the complete clinical spectrum, including several rare tumours of relevance to the dermatologist. This study aims to review the existing literature on dermatological presentations of arsenic toxicity and their management in adults.
急慢性砷中毒的皮肤和全身症状可能不明显。因此,了解这些症状对于防止诊断延迟或漏诊至关重要。在非地方性流行国家尤其如此,在这些国家,个体可能在接触砷数十年后才出现症状,或者可能仍在通过非典型途径摄入砷。现有文献强调了几种众所周知的砷中毒皮肤表现,却忽略了完整的临床谱,包括一些对皮肤科医生有意义的罕见肿瘤。本研究旨在综述关于成人砷中毒皮肤表现及其治疗的现有文献。
