ReferencesGrover disease, også kjent som forbigående akantolytisk dermatose, er et utslett som fremstår som små væskefylte blemmer på overkroppen, hovedsakelig hos eldre hvite menn. Det klør ofte, men varer ikke lenge. Det finnes fire ulike mønstre av vevsendringer ved Grover disease, og tilstanden har vært knyttet til ulike sykdommer, blant annet blodkreft. Den kan være vanskelig å diagnostisere og behandle fordi den har en tendens til å komme og gå av seg selv. Siden Grover disease ofte er assosiert med andre dermatologiske og ikke‑dermatologiske hudsykdommer, er det viktig å utelukke samtidige lidelser, inkludert hematopoietiske 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 rapporten diskuterer et sjeldent tilfelle av Grover's disease hos en 80‑år gammel hvit mann som har hatt utslett på brystet de siste tre til fire månedene. Han har en historie med høyt blodtrykk, høyt kolesterol, leddgikt i kneet, kronisk sure oppstøt, rask hjertefrekvens, tidligere prostatakreft og rastløse ben‑syndrom. Til å begynne med hadde han et kløende, rødt, humpete utslett hovedsakelig på overkroppen. Til tross for bruk av ulike kremer og lotioner, ble symptomene hans ikke mye bedre. Etter å ha oppsøkt en hudlege og fått tatt en hudbiopsi, ble diagnosen Grover's disease bekreftet. Han ble deretter behandlet med en steroidkrem i to uker.
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.
