TL;DR: Results from a skin biopsy of the lesions showed intraepidermal abscessed, dense inflammatory infiltrates in the dermis, and marked pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia after stopping KI, and the acneiform skin lesions cleared within a few days.
Abstract: Iodoerma is an uncommon eruption caused by exposure or ingestin of iodides or related com- pounds. The typical cutaneous lesins are acneiform papulopustules that appear in skin sites rich in sebaceous glands. We report acase of iododerma n a 63-year-old male patient who took oral pots- sium iodide (KI) to treat sporotricosis. Oe week later discrete acneiform papules and pustules appeared on his nose and nasolabial folds. The skin lesions persisted for several weeks during treat- ment with KI. Results from a skin biopsy of the lesions showed intraepidermal abscessed, dense inflammatory infiltrates in the dermis, and marked pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia. After stopping KI, the acneiform skin lesions cleared within a few days.
