Grover disease , også kendt som forbigående akantolytisk dermatose, er et udslæt, der vises som knopper fyldt med væske på overkroppen, hovedsageligt hos ældre hvide mænd. Det klør ofte, men varer ikke længe. Der er 4 forskellige mønstre af vævsforandringer i Grover disease , og det er blevet forbundet med forskellige sygdomme, såsom blodkræft. Det kan være svært at spore og behandle, fordi det har en tendens til at komme og gå af sig selv. Fordi Grover disease ofte er blevet forbundet med andre dermatologiske og ikke-ondermatologiske hudsygdomme, er det vigtigt at udelukke andre samtidige lidelser, herunder hæmatopoietiske maligniteter.
Grover disease, also known as transient acantholytic dermatosis, is a rash that appears as bumps filled with fluid on the upper body, mainly in older white men. It's often itchy but doesn't last long. There are 4 different patterns of tissue changes in Grover disease, and it has been linked to various illnesses, like blood cancers. It can be hard to track and treat because it tends to come and go on its own. Because Grover disease has been associated frequently with other dermatologic and nondermatologic skin conditions, to rule out other concomitant disorders, including hematopoietic malignancies is essential.

Denne rapport diskuterer et sjældent tilfælde af Grover's disease hos en 80-årig hvid mand, der havde udslæt på brystet i de sidste tre til fire måneder. Han har en historie med højt blodtryk, forhøjet kolesterol, knæledt, kronisk sure opstød, hurtig puls, tidligere prostatacancer og rastløse ben-syndrom. I starten havde han et kløende, rødt, ujævn udslæt, hovedsageligt på overkroppen. På trods af at han brugte forskellige cremer og lotioner, blev hans symptomer ikke meget bedre. Efter at have besøgt en hudlæge og fået en hudbiopsi, blev diagnosen Grover's disease bekræftet. Han blev derefter behandlet med en steroidcreme i to uger.
This case report details a rare case of Grover's disease in an 80-year-old Caucasian male complaining of a rash across his chest over the last three to four months. The patient has a past medical history of essential hypertension, hyperlipidemia, osteoarthritis of the knee, chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), supraventricular tachycardia, status post prostate cancer, and restless legs syndrome. During his initial evaluation, he was found to have a pruritic, erythematous, papular rash most notably along his upper trunk and chest. The patient utilized multiple lotions, emollients, and anti-itch creams with minimal relief of his symptoms and presentation. Following a referral to Dermatology, a biopsy of the rash was conducted, which revealed intraepidermal acantholysis, the hallmark finding for a diagnosis of Grover's disease. Subsequently, he was treated with a topical triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% cream for 14 days.
