일과성 극세포 용해성 피부병으로도 알려져 있는 Grover disease 은 주로 노인 백인 남성에게 상체에 체액이 가득 찬 돌기로 나타나는 발진입니다. 가려움증이 자주 발생하지만 오래 지속되지는 않습니다. Grover disease 에는 4가지 다른 조직 변화 패턴이 있으며 이는 혈액암과 같은 다양한 질병과 관련이 있습니다. 이는 저절로 나타났다가 사라지는 경향이 있기 때문에 추적 및 치료가 어려울 수 있습니다. Grover disease 은 다른 피부 및 비피부 피부 질환과 자주 연관되어 있기 때문에 조혈 악성종양을 포함한 다른 수반되는 질환을 배제하는 것이 필수적입니다.
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.

이 보고서는 지난 3~4개월 동안 가슴에 발진이 있었던 80세 백인 남성의 드문 Grover's disease 사례에 대해 설명합니다. 그는 고혈압, 고콜레스테롤, 무릎 관절염, 만성 위산 역류, 빠른 심박수, 이전 전립선암, 하지 불안 증후군의 병력을 가지고 있습니다. 처음에는 주로 상체에 가렵고 붉고 울퉁불퉁한 발진이 생겼습니다. 다양한 크림과 로션을 사용해도 증상은 별로 호전되지 않았습니다. 피부과를 방문하고 피부생검을 받은 결과 Grover's disease 진단이 확정되었습니다. 그 후 그는 2주 동안 스테로이드 크림 치료를 받았습니다.
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.
