Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis - Akutna Generalizirana Egzantematozna Pustuloza
Akutna Generalizirana Egzantematozna Pustuloza (Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis) (AGEP) je rijetka kožna reakcija koja je u 90% slučajeva povezana s primjenom lijekova. akutna generalizirana egzantematozna pustuloza (acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis) karakteriziraju iznenadne kožne erupcije koje se pojavljuju u prosjeku pet dana nakon početka uzimanja lijeka. Ove erupcije su pustule, odnosno male crvene bijele ili crvene erupcije kože koje sadrže zamućeni ili gnojni materijal (gnoj). Oštećenja kože obično se povlače u roku od 1-3 dana nakon prestanka uzimanja lijeka koji izaziva napad.
☆ U rezultatima Stiftung Warentest-a za 2022. iz Njemačke, zadovoljstvo potrošača ModelDerm-om bilo je samo nešto niže nego s plaćenim telemedicinskim konsultacijama.
Raširene lezije sa eritemom i pustulama pojavljuju se iznenada.

Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) je kožna reakcija obilježena malim kvržima ispunjenim gnojem na crvenoj podlozi kože. Obično se dešava kada neko uzima određene lekove, poput antibiotika, i brzo se širi po telu. Nakon prestanka uzimanja lijeka koji izaziva, simptomi obično nestaju u roku od dvije sedmice, često ostavljajući malo opadanja kože. Iako obično nisu ozbiljni i ograničeni na kožu, teški slučajevi se mogu klasificirati zajedno s drugim ozbiljnim kožnim reakcijama poput Stevens-Johnson syndrome ili toxic epidermal necrolysis. Liječenje je prvenstveno potporna njega, a prognoza za potpuno rješavanje bolesti je obično odlična.
Acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) is an adverse cutaneous reaction characterized by sterile pinpoint nonfollicular pustules atop an erythematous background. Symptoms most often occur in the setting of medication exposure, such as systemic antibiotics, rapidly become generalized, followed by desquamation and resolution within about two weeks of discontinuing the offending trigger. Although mostly self-limited without systemic involvement, severe cases are classified alongside other cutaneous adverse reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms. Treatment is primarily supportive, and the prognosis for complete resolution is excellent.

Recent experimental data reviewed herein are supportive of an early role of drug-induced innate immune activation and innate cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1, IL-36, and IL-17 in the pathogenesis of AGEP. This explains the rapid onset and neutrophilic character of the cutaneous inflammation.
Muškarac star 76 godina došao je u Hitnu pomoć jer mu se koža promijenila u protekla dva dana. Doktori su pronašli crvene mrlje i izbočine na njegovom trupu i rukama i nogama. Kako je vrijeme odmicalo, ove mrlje su se spojile i pojavile su se kvržice nalik na bubuljice u crvenim područjima. Testovi su pokazali visok broj bijelih krvnih zrnaca s puno neutrofila i povećane razine C-reactive protein.
A 76-year-old male patient presented as an emergency due to a 2-day history of skin changes. Physical examination revealed disseminated erythematous macules and plaques on the trunk and extremities. In the further course, confluence of the macules and non-follicular pustulosis developed in the area of erythema. Laboratory tests revealed leukocytosis with neutrophils and elevated C-reactive protein.
