ИСПОЛЬЗОВАНИЕ АУТОФЛУОРЕСЦЕНТНОЙ ДЕРМАТОСКОПИИ У БОЛЬНЫХ ПСОРИАЗОМ

Results  of  autofluorescence dermatoscopy  using  videodermatoscope  «EcoSkin»  in  patients   with  different  dermatologic diseases  are represented. The study included 64 patients, 27 of them had different types of psoriasis, 11 – acne, 3 – rosacea, 5 – eczema, 3 – mite-induced dermatitis, 4 – superficial mycosis of the glabrous skin, 7 – atopic dermatitis, 4 – seborrheic dermatitis. The major changes of autofluorescence were detected in pathological foci in patients with psoriasis. Authors suppose that increased autofluorescence of porphyrins in psoriatic plaques in the study is associated  with enhanced prolyferation in pathological  tissues and with liver dysfunction. The analysis of autofluorescence images in patients  with rosacea, eczema, atopic and mite-induced dermatitis did not show significant difference in autofluorescence images of affected skin comparing  with intact skin in same patients. In patients  with acne a pattern of spot red-orange autofluorescence of skin in seborrheic  areas corresponding with location of openings  of pilosebaceous apparatus was detected that  was associated  by authors  with Propionibacterium acnes infection.
