Fox-Fordyce hastalığı (FFH), apokrin ter bezlerin kronik, nadir gö-rülen, klinik olarak kaşıntılı papüllerle karakterize bir hastalığıdır. Kadın-larda daha sık görülür ve etyolojisi tam olarak net değildir. Bu makalede Stevens-Johnson Sendromu sonrasında dudaklarında FFD gelişen 19 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunuldu.Anahtar kelimeler: Fox-Fordyce hastalığı, Stevens-Johnson Sendromu.Fox-Fordyce Disease (FFD) is a rare, chronic disorder of the apocrin sweat glands and characterized by pruritic papules. The disease primarily affects females and the etiology is unclear. A 19-year-old male patient developed FFD in his lips with a history of Steven-Johnson Syndrome is presented in this report.

“…Less commonly, the lips, umbilicus, sternum, and perineum can be affected. 2 Although most reported cases appear to be sporadic and idiopathic, Fox-Fordyce disease has been described in two sets of siblings, suggesting a genetic component. 6 Other reports have suggested an endocrine basis, given that the disorder typically affects postpubertal patients, improves during pregnancy, and remits after menopause.…”

Background: Fox-Fordyce disease (FFD) is a relatively rare entity with a typical clinical presentation. Numerous studies have described unifying histopathological features of FFD, which together suggest a defect in the follicular infundibulum resulting in follicular dilation with keratin plugging, subsequent apocrine duct obstruction, and apocrine gland dilation, with eventual extravasation of the apocrine secretions as the primary histopathogenic events in the evolution of the disease. Observations: We describe a case of FFD that developed in a 41-year-old woman 3 months after completing a series of axillary laser hair removal treatments, and we detail the clinical and histopathological changes typical for FFD. Conclusion: Because defective infundibular maturation has been suggested to play a central role in the evolution of FFD, the close temporal relationship of laser hair therapy with the development of FFD suggests a causal role, which we continue to explore.
