Grover disease , juga dikenali sebagai dermatosis acantholytic sementara, adalah ruam yang muncul sebagai benjolan yang dipenuhi cecair pada bahagian atas badan, terutamanya pada lelaki kulit putih yang lebih tua. Selalunya gatal tapi tak tahan lama. Terdapat 4 corak perubahan tisu yang berbeza dalam Grover disease , dan ia telah dikaitkan dengan pelbagai penyakit, seperti kanser darah. Ia boleh menjadi sukar untuk dikesan dan dirawat kerana ia cenderung untuk datang dan pergi dengan sendirinya. Oleh kerana Grover disease telah kerap dikaitkan dengan keadaan kulit dermatologi dan bukan dermatologi yang lain, untuk menolak gangguan bersamaan lain, termasuk keganasan hematopoietik adalah penting.
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.

Laporan ini membincangkan kes Grover's disease yang jarang berlaku pada seorang lelaki kulit putih berusia 80 tahun yang mengalami ruam di dadanya sejak tiga hingga empat bulan lalu. Dia mempunyai sejarah tekanan darah tinggi, kolesterol tinggi, arthritis lutut, refluks asid kronik, degupan jantung yang cepat, kanser prostat sebelumnya, dan sindrom kaki resah. Pada mulanya, dia mengalami ruam yang gatal, merah dan bergelombang terutamanya pada bahagian atas badannya. Walaupun menggunakan pelbagai krim dan losyen, simptomnya tidak bertambah baik. Selepas berjumpa pakar dermatologi dan menjalani biopsi kulit, diagnosis Grover's disease disahkan. Dia kemudian dirawat dengan krim steroid selama dua minggu.
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.
