VOLUME 97, MARCH 2016 E1 WWW.CUTIS.COM To the Editor: The term pemphigus describes a group of autoimmune blistering diseases that are histologically characterized by intraepidermal blisters caused by acantholysis. There are several types of pemphigus foliaceus, such as classic and endemic pemphigus foliaceus, pemphigus erythematosus, pemphigus herpetiformis, and drug-induced pemphigus foliaceus...

BACKGROUND Pemphigus foliaceus and pemphigus vulgaris are endemic in the northeastern region of São Paulo State, Brazil. They are treated mainly with systemic corticosteroids, which may provoke osteoporosis; atherosclerosis, higher blood pressure, insulin resistance, glucose intolerance, hyperlipidemia and abdominal obesity. These side effects of corticoids also constitute criteria for the diag...

Pemphigus foliaceus is an autoimmune blistering condition more often than not associated with generalized lesions. Localized Pemphigus foliaceus is a rare entity. Herein, we report a case of pemphigus foliaceus localized on the face. A 64-year-old woman was referred to our clinic with a 2-year history of erythematous plaque on the right side of her face. The histology report was compatible with...

The present study characterized Argulus spp. infecting the cultured carps using 18S rRNA gene sequences, estimated the genetic similarity among Argulus spp. and established their phylogenetic relationship. Of the 320 fish samples screened, 34 fish (10.6%) had Argulus infection. The parasitic frequency index (PFI) was observed to be high (20%) in Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and Labeo bata. The f...

Farming and trading of aquarium fish has been considered a popular pastime in the world. Most Iran's are imported from Asian countries including Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand Vietnam. Fish lice (Argulus) is known as one most important common ectoparasites ornamental fish. Reports indicate that these parasites have observed to Iran (e.g goldfish Carassius auratus koi carp Cyprinus carpio). Today...

in this survey, 54 specimens of common carp (cyprinus carpio) were collected from anzali wetland between august 2011 and july 2012. after recording biometric characteristics, routine necropsy and parasitology methods were used. totaly, 3165 individuals of parasites were isolated and identified from common carp. parasitofauna consisted of 10 species as follows: two protozoans, ichthyophthirius m...
