Grover disease , även känd som övergående akantolytisk dermatos, är ett utslag som uppträder som bulor fyllda med vätska på överkroppen, främst hos äldre vita män. Det kliar ofta men varar inte länge. Det finns 4 olika mönster av vävnadsförändringar i Grover disease , och det har kopplats till olika sjukdomar, som blodcancer. Det kan vara svårt att spåra och behandla eftersom det tenderar att komma och gå av sig själv. Eftersom Grover disease ofta har associerats med andra dermatologiska och icke-undermatologiska hudåkommor, är det viktigt att utesluta andra samtidiga störningar, inklusive hematopoetiska 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.

Den här rapporten diskuterar ett sällsynt fall av Grover's disease hos en 80-årig vit man som haft utslag på bröstet under de senaste tre till fyra månaderna. Han har en historia av högt blodtryck, högt kolesterol, knäledsartrit, kronisk sura uppstötningar, snabb hjärtfrekvens, tidigare prostatacancer och restless legs-syndrom. Till en början hade han ett kliande, rött, ojämnt utslag främst på överkroppen. Trots att han använde olika krämer och lotioner förbättrades hans symtom inte mycket. Efter att ha träffat en hudläkare och gjort en hudbiopsi, bekräftades diagnosen Grover's disease. Han behandlades sedan med en steroidkräm i två veckor.
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.
