“…Our case revealed the white-yellow papules coalescing to form a cobblestone appearance. These papules were also involved in the symmetrical regions of supraclavicular fossae, axillae and forearms, which has never been reported in WFPN (1,7,8). Considering the clinico-pathological findings, the present case may represent a variant of WFPN.…”

Intolerance reactions due to the ingestion of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are frequent emergencies. It is thought that inhibition of the isoenzyme cyclooxygenase type I (COX-1) is responsible for the common NSAID-associated adverse effects, whereas inhibition of COX-2 is mainly responsible for the therapeutic effects. The goal of our study was to estimate the frequency of intolerance reactions due to ingestion of the two newly approved selective COX-2 inhibitors, rofecoxib or celecoxib. In a sample of 13 patients who had previously documented NSAID hypersensitivity reactions to non-selective COX inhibitors, 2 patients (15.3%) showed intolerance reactions (2 of 9 patients with rofecoxib, 1 of 5 patients with celecoxib). These drugs cannot therefore be administered uncritically to patients with known NSAID hypersensitivity. Selective COX-2 inhibitors can only be used as alternative drugs in these patients after assessing their specific tolerability in a properly performed provocation test.

Background: Cutaneous aging is due to intrinsic and extrinsic factors. While the pathologic hallmark of extrinsic aging (photoaging) is solar elastosis, intrinsic aging lacks any specific feature. Only a progressive thinning and loss of the dermal elastic network occasionally associated with focal thickening of the collagen bundles may be observed. In contrast to the different clinical patterns of solar elastosis, only one distinctive disorder has been related so far to intrinsic aging: the temporary wrinkles. Objective: Pseudoxanthoma-elasticum-like papillary dermal elastolysis (PDE) and white fibrous papulosis of the neck (WFP) are further clinicopathologic patterns of intrinsic aging. Material and Methods: Review of the literature and clinical and histologic studies of patients of our files. Results: PDE and WFP share some peculiar clinical and histologic features, namely their occurrence in late adulthood and thinning or loss of the elastic fibers, mainly in the papillary dermis. Moreover, elastolysis in PDE and focal fibrosis in WFP, along with the abnormal elastic fibers, immature elastogenesis and activation of fibroblasts observed in PDE, are quite similar to the changes described in intrinsic aging. Conclusions: PDE and WFP along with temporary wrinkles and some cases of noninflammatory middermal elastolysis could be classified as ‘age-related fibroelastolytic syndromes’.
