  • Title: Confluent and reticulated papillomatosis (Gougerot-Carteaud).
    Author: Thomsen K.
    Journal: Acta Derm Venereol Suppl (Stockh); 1979; 59(85):185-7. PubMed ID: 294095.
    Abstract:
    Seven cases, one female and six males with confluent and reticulated papillomatosis are presented. Age range was 13-25 years and the skin disease had lasted for 6 months to 3 years. Initially, acanthosis nigricans was suspected in all cases as the skin histology was compatible with that diagnosis. Pityrosporum orbiculare was cultured in 4 cases, but treatment with selenium sulfide and miconazole was unsuccessfull. No endocrinological abnormities were revealed. Only associated feature was a marked xeroderma. The importance of the awareness of the disease is stressed.
