A disease of the pilosebaceous unit, presenting clinically as grouped follicular papules or plaques with associated hair loss. It is caused by mucinous infiltration of tissues, and usually involving the scalp, face, and neck. It may be primary (idiopathic) or secondary to mycosis fungoides or reticulosis.
Mucoid states characterized by the elevated deposition and accumulation of mucin (mucopolysaccharides) in dermal tissue. The fibroblasts are responsible for the production of acid mucopolysaccharides (GLYCOSAMINOGLYCANS) in the ground substance of the connective tissue system. When fibroblasts produce abnormally large quantities of mucopolysaccharides as hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, or heparin, they accumulate in large amounts in the dermis.
A connective tissue disorder characterized by widespread thickening of SKIN with a cobblestone-like appearance. It is caused by proliferation of FIBROBLASTS and deposition of MUCIN in the DERMIS in the absence of thyroid disease. Most scleromyxedema cases are associated with a MONOCLONAL GAMMOPATHY, immunoglobulin IgG-lambda.
A condition characterized by a dry, waxy type of swelling (EDEMA) with abnormal deposits of MUCOPOLYSACCHARIDES in the SKIN and other tissues. It is caused by a deficiency of THYROID HORMONES. The skin becomes puffy around the eyes and on the cheeks. The face is dull and expressionless with thickened nose and lips.
A chronic, malignant T-cell lymphoma of the skin. In the late stages, the LYMPH NODES and viscera are affected.

Follicular mucinosis associated with mycosis fungoides. (1/9)

A 62-year-old man with a 13-year history of mycosis fungoides presented with a 2-month history of alopecia of the scalp. The mycosis fungoides had remained untreated for the previous 3.5 years. A biopsy specimen from the scalp showed follicular mucinosis in association with mycosis fungoides.  (+info)

Follicular mucinosis in a teenage girl. (2/9)

Follicular mucinosis is characterized by mucin deposits within the hair follicles and sebaceous glands. It can occur as a primary idiopathic benign disorder; it can be found as an incidental phenomenom in rare cases of different dermatoses; or it can arise as a secondary symptom of a malignant disorder, most commonly mycosis fungoides. Youth and localization in a single area used to be regarded as indicative of the benign nature of follicular mucinosis. However, recent reports demonstrate that no clear-cut criteria allow for the differentiation of idiopathic from lymphoma-associated follicular mucinosis. We report the case of a 16-year old girl who presented with a 2-year history of a single, slightly pruritic, erythematous patch on the left side of the neck. Different local treatments (local corticosteroids, antibiotics, antifungal ointments and moisturizers) were ineffective. Overall, she was healthy. Histopathological examination of the lesion showed the typical histological picture of follicular mucinosis.  (+info)

Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with follicular mucinosis. (3/9)

Follicular mucinosis occurring along with angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophils (ALHE) has been described in a 54-year-old female. The patient presented with pruritic erythematous papules on the left frontoparietal scalp. Histopathological examination showed prominent blood vessels in the dermis lined by plump histiocytoid endothelial cells that were surrounded by a dense lymphoid infiltrate with numerous eosinophils; these findings are typical of angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophils. Features of follicular mucinosis were observed in the same section with several hyperplastic follicular infundibula containing pools of mucin in the infundibular epithelium. The concurrent occurrence of these two distinct histopathological patterns in the same biopsy specimen has been described in only three cases to date.  (+info)

Folliculitis, follicular mucinosis, and papular mucinosis as a presentation of chronic myelomonocytic leukemia. (4/9)

Leukemias and Lymphomas can present in indolent and surprisingly unusual manners. Although uncommon, follicular lesions such as eosinophilic folliculitis have been reported in association with leukemia. However, follicular and papular mucinosis are novel associations for chronic myelomonocytic leukemia.  (+info)

Secondary follicular mucinosis associated with systemic lupus erythematosus. (5/9)

A 61-year-old woman presented with a five-month history of an intermittent eruption of papules and nodules on her face and neck. Past medical history included systemic lupus erythematosus. Histopathologic examination was consistent with secondary follicular mucinosis in association with systemic lupus erythematosus. This rare entity has been described in one prior report as a precursor to the clinical onset of systemic lupus erythematosus. Follicular mucinosis occurs as either a primary idiopathic form or a secondary form associated with either benign inflammatory processes or malignant conditions, such as cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Numerous treatments for primary follicular mucinosis have been described, which include isotretinoin and glucocorticoids, whereas treatment of the underlying disease is necessary in the secondary form. The association with lymphoma mandates long-term clinical monitoring of patients with particularly recalcitrant, widespread, or chronic follicular mucinosis.  (+info)

Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma accompanying follicular mucinosis: a case report with review of the literature. (7/9)

Follicular mucinosis is recognized as one of the histopathological reaction patterns characterized by the accumulation of mucin within follicular epithelium. It is induced by various causes including inflammatory diseases, and more than half of the cases are associated with malignant lymphoma, mainly mycosis fungoides. Herein, we describe the third documented case of adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) accompanying follicular mucinosis. A 72-year-old Japanese male presented with persistent erythema in his arm and neck. Laboratory tests demonstrated positivity for human T-cell leukemia virus (HTLV)-1 antibodies. Histopathological study of the biopsy specimen from the neck revealed superficial perivascular, nodular, and intrafollicular lymphocytic infiltrations. These lymphocytes were small- to medium-sized and had convoluted nuclei. Mucoid material deposition was observed within the hair follicles, and it was digested by hyaluronidase. Immunohistochemically, these lymphocytes were positive for CD3, CD4, CD25, and Foxp3. Accordingly, an ultimate diagnosis of ATLL accompanying follicular mucinosis was made. The skin is the most common extralymphatic site of involvement of ATLL. The present case clearly demonstrated that albeit extremely rare, ATLL can cause follicular mucinosis. Therefore, ATLL should be included in the differential diagnostic consideration of follicular mucinosis.  (+info)

Clonal rearrangement of the T cell receptor beta gene in the circulating lymphocytes of erythrodermic follicular mucinosis. (8/9)

Follicular mucinosis is a condition characterized by the abnormal accumulation of acidic mucopolysaccharides in hair follicles. It is classically described as occurring idiopathically in young persons and within the infiltrates of mycosis fungoides in older individuals. We report a 12-year-old girl who had erythrodermic follicular mucinosis, hypereosinophilia, circulating Sezary cells, and both immunophenotypic and genotypic evidence of T cell neoplasia. Erythrodermic follicular mucinosis may represent an unusual variant of the Sezary syndrome, which to date has not been described in children or adolescents.  (+info)

Follicular mucinosis is a cutaneous condition characterized by the accumulation of mucin in the hair follicles. Mucin is a complex sugar-protein substance that provides cushioning and lubrication in various tissues throughout the body. In follicular mucinosis, there is an overproduction of mucin within the hair follicles, leading to visible bumps or papules on the skin.

Follicular mucinosis can be classified into three types: primary, secondary, and variant. The primary type is further divided into two subcategories: classic and atypical. The classic form of primary follicular mucinosis typically affects middle-aged adults and presents with localized or generalized patches of skin that are scaly, itchy, and have a smooth, shiny appearance (known as "alopetic pseudopelade"). In contrast, the atypical form is often associated with lymphoma.

Secondary follicular mucinosis can occur in association with various inflammatory skin conditions, such as eczema, psoriasis, and discoid lupus erythematosus. The variant type of follicular mucinosis is a rare condition that primarily affects children and adolescents, presenting with localized areas of thickened, rough skin (known as "hyperkeratotic").

The exact cause of primary follicular mucinosis remains unclear, but it is thought to involve an abnormal immune response. Secondary follicular mucinosis, on the other hand, is a reactive process triggered by underlying inflammatory skin conditions. Treatment for follicular mucinosis depends on the type and severity of the condition, ranging from topical corticosteroids to systemic immunosuppressive therapy in more severe cases.

Mucinoses are a group of cutaneous disorders characterized by the abnormal deposit of mucin in the dermis. Mucin is a complex sugar-protein substance that provides cushioning and lubrication to various tissues in the body. In mucinoses, an excess of mucin accumulates in the skin, leading to various clinical manifestations such as papules, nodules, plaques, or generalized swelling.

Mucinoses can be classified into two main categories: primary and secondary. Primary mucinoses are caused by genetic mutations that affect the production or degradation of mucin, while secondary mucinoses occur as a result of other underlying medical conditions, such as autoimmune disorders, infections, or neoplasms.

Examples of primary mucinoses include:

* Lichen myxedematosus (also known as papular mucinosis): characterized by multiple, firm, flesh-colored to yellowish papules and nodules, usually on the trunk and proximal extremities.
* Follicular mucinosis: a condition that affects hair follicles and is characterized by the accumulation of mucin in the follicular epithelium, leading to hair loss, itching, and inflammation.
* Scleromyxedema: a rare systemic disorder characterized by generalized thickening and hardening of the skin due to excessive deposition of mucin and collagen fibers.

Examples of secondary mucinoses include:

* Lupus erythematosus: an autoimmune disorder that can affect various organs, including the skin, and is characterized by the accumulation of mucin in the dermis.
* Dermatomyositis: another autoimmune disorder that affects the skin and muscles, and can also cause mucin deposition in the dermis.
* Rosai-Dorfman disease: a rare histiocytic disorder characterized by the accumulation of large, foamy histiocytes that contain mucin in the lymph nodes and other organs, including the skin.

The diagnosis of mucinoses is usually based on clinical examination, skin biopsy, and laboratory tests. Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include topical or systemic medications, phototherapy, or surgical intervention.

Scleromyxedema is a rare, progressive skin disorder characterized by the thickening and hardening of the skin due to excessive deposits of proteins called mucin and abnormal fibrous tissue in the dermis. It is also associated with monoclonal gammopathy, which means there is an overproduction of a specific type of antibody in the blood. The condition can affect various organs and systems in the body, potentially leading to systemic involvement.

The primary clinical features of scleromyxedema include:
- Widespread symmetric papules (small bumps) and plaques (thickened patches) on the skin
- Progressive thickening and hardening of the skin, particularly on the face, neck, hands, and feet
- Fine, waxy, "paradoxical" wrinkling of the skin when stretched or manipulated
- Occasionally, involvement of mucous membranes (e.g., mouth, eyes)

Scleromyxedema is differentiated from another similar condition called lichen myxedematosus by its association with monoclonal gammopathy and systemic symptoms. The exact cause of scleromyxedema remains unclear, but it is believed to involve abnormal immune system activity.

Treatment for scleromyxedema can be challenging due to the rarity and complexity of the condition. Various therapies have been used with varying degrees of success, including intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), glucocorticoids, chemotherapy agents, and biologics. The prognosis for scleromyxedema is variable, with some patients experiencing significant improvement or stabilization, while others may have progressive disease that can lead to severe complications and even death.

Myxedema is not a term used in modern medicine to describe a specific medical condition. However, historically, it was used to refer to the severe form of hypothyroidism, a condition characterized by an underactive thyroid gland that doesn't produce enough thyroid hormones. In hypothyroidism, various body functions slow down, which can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance, constipation, and dry skin.

Myxedema specifically refers to the physical signs of severe hypothyroidism, including swelling (edema) and thickening of the skin, particularly around the face, hands, and feet, as well as a puffy appearance of the face. The term myxedema coma was used to describe a rare but life-threatening complication of long-standing, untreated hypothyroidism, characterized by altered mental status, hypothermia, and other systemic manifestations.

Nowadays, healthcare professionals use more precise medical terminology to describe these conditions, such as hypothyroidism or myxedematous edema, rather than the outdated term myxedema.

Mycosis fungoides is the most common type of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL), a rare cancer that affects the skin's immune system. It is characterized by the infiltration of malignant CD4+ T-lymphocytes into the skin, leading to the formation of patches, plaques, and tumors. The disease typically progresses slowly over many years, often starting with scaly, itchy rashes that can be mistaken for eczema or psoriasis. As the disease advances, tumors may form, and the lymphoma may spread to other organs, such as the lymph nodes, lungs, or spleen. Mycosis fungoides is not contagious and cannot be spread from person to person. The exact cause of mycosis fungoides is unknown, but it is thought to result from a combination of genetic, environmental, and immune system factors.
