SKIN MANIFESTATIONS OF VIRAL HEPATITIS : 

SKIN MANIFESTATIONS OF VIRAL HEPATITIS HEPATITIS B Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) The pathogenesis :deposition of immune complexes in the vessel walls including IgM, complement factors (C3), and HBsAg Papular acrodermatitis of childhood (PAC) A non-relapsing, erythemato-papular dermatitis localized to the face and limbs, lymphadenopathy, , acute hepatitis (mostly anicteric), and HBsAg antigenaemia Serum sickness-like syndrome (SSLP) It is associated with the prodromal phase of the disease . Manifestations: urticaria, angioedema, arthropathy, proteinuria or hematuria, and rash. The pathogenesis : deposition of immune complexes: H BsAg, IgG, IgM, and C3

SKIN MANIFESTATIONS OF VIRAL HEPATITIS : 

SKIN MANIFESTATIONS OF VIRAL HEPATITIS HEPATITIS C Mixed cryoglobulinemia Cryoglobulins are anti-immunoglobulin immunoglobulins (Igs) that precipitate at temperatures less than 37°C. Mixed cryoglobulins : rheumatoid factors (RF) (usually IgM) complexed with IgG which form immune complexes. Mixed cryoglobulinemia : considered essential if it is not associated with any disease other than Sjogrens syndrome Porphyria cutanea tarda Porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) is characterized by an abnormal porphyrin metabolism secondary to decreased activity of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (URO-D). The cutaneous findings: skin fragility, blister formation, hyperpigmentation and hypertrichosis, by the photosensitizing action of accumulated porphyrins Lichen planus Lichen planus is a chronic inflammatory mucocutaneous disease process. It usually presents as small, pruritic, purple, planar, polygonal papules with superimposed fine, reticulated white lines called Wickham's striae. Mucous membrane lesions are typically lacy white or ulcerative.

Bowel bypass syndrome : a bacterial overgrowth in the blind loop associated with a dermatosis-arthritis syndrome

Pathogenesis of extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel syndrome : 

Pathogenesis of extraintestinal manifestations of inflammatory bowel syndrome Immunologic mechanisms The mucosa from the underlying bowel disease provides associated immune responses for the inflammatory process in the extraintestinal sites. Autoimmune response increases with the presence of foreign proteins or bacterial products in the intestinal mucosa. Shared epitopes between bacterial proteins and host self-antigens. Microbial peptides cross-reactive to the cellular autoantigenic epitope may initiate the autoimmune response

Miscellaneous cutaneous diseases associated with GI disorders; : 

Miscellaneous cutaneous diseases associated with GI disorders; Scleroderma (systemic sclerosis The dermatologic changes: sclerotic changes that eventually involve the entire body, telangiectases, hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation GIT Manifestations The esophageal symptoms :feeling of premature fullness, reflux esophagitis, dysphagia, and epigastric pain. Stomach and small bowel :anorexia, early fullness, diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, and obstipation caused by impaired motility, which, in turn, leading to chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction, malnutrition, and bacterial overgrowth

Pemphigus vulgaris : 

Pemphigus vulgaris Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) : autoimmune blistering disorder involving the skin and mucous membranes that also can affect the esophagus (persistent sore throat, dysphagia, and odynophagia). Skin lesions: bullous lesions(1-10 cm) superficial, and easily ruptured by trauma. One characteristic finding on lateral palpation of these lesions is extension into adjacent tissue. Mucosal sites also commonly are involved, including the oral mucosa (often the presenting site), anus, cervix, and conjunctivae. Antigenic confirmation of the disease correlation: the target cell adhesion molecule of the PV autoantibodies is strongly expressed in the esophageal epithelia.

Summary : 

Summary Early recognition of cutaneous diseases or manifestations associated with the gastrointestinal tract disorders may be lifesaving at times, and may lead to early preventive intervention to decrease risk of morbidity or mortality.
