Goals of Presentation
At the end of presentation you would be able
to:
1. Identify the skin manifestations in a patient
who may have known or unknown
underlying systemic disease.
2. Manage it in concern with systemic disease
Diabetes Mellitus
Diabetes Mellitus
It is a clinical syndrome, characterized by:
Chronic hyperglycemia, glycosuria
Disturbance in CHO, protein, & lipid
metabolism
Result from lack of insulin(partial or
absolute), receptor insensitivity to
insulin
Cutaneous Manifestations
Skin disorders due to Micro- or
macroangiopathy
Specific cutaneous disorders
Cutaneous Infections: bacterial, viral,
parasitic, fungal etc
Skin disorders due to medication, Insulin
therapy
Macroangiopathy related Skin Ds
skin atrophy
hair loss
Cold Extremities
nail dystrophy
Pallor upon elevation, and mottling on
dependence
Micro-angiopathy Related Skin Ds
Microangiopathy results into:
retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy &
dermopathy.
Skin Ds include:
Diabetic Dermopathy (Diabetic Shin spots)
Erysipelas-like erythemy
Diabetic Rubeosis
Periungual Telangiectasia
Dermopathy
This
is
most
common
dermatosis associated
Lesions oval, dull red papules
0.5-1 cm.
Shins, forearms, thighs & over
bony prominences
Lesions evolves producing
superficial scale & healing
with atrophic brownish scar.
R/: Topical
histamines
steroids
Anti
ERYSIPELAS LIKE ERYTHEMA
- Dull erythematous plaques on legs feet, well
demarcated.
DIABETIC RUBEOSIS
- Occurs in long
standing disease
- Rosy
reddening
of
face, sometimes
of hands, feet.
PERIUNGUAL TELANGIECTASIA
The nail fold is an
excellent site for viewing
functional and structural
changes
in
the
microvascular of the skin.
DIABETIC FOOT
An umbrella term for
various foot problems seen
in diabetics.
Multiple factors involved in
pathogenesis: e.g. microangiopathy,
macroangiopathy neuropathy as
well as a tendency to
delayed wound healing,
infection or gangrene of
the foot is relatively
common.
CUTANEOUS INFECTION IN DIABETES
- Furuncle and carbuncle
- Non Clostridial gas gangrene: Mixed
anaerobic and aerobic organisms (E. Coli,
Pseudom. Klebsella, bacteriodes) produce
gas with foul odor.
- Candida Infections
- Phycomycetes Infections
- Dermatophytosis
CANDIDA INFECTIONS
- Yeast infections are common in diabetic patients.
Yeast infections may even be the presenting
manifestation of diabetes
- Involvement of the glans & vulva are common.
- Vaginal candidiasis: almost universal among
women with long term diabetes.
- Angular stomatitis due to Candida is a classic
complication in diabetic children. Result from
Increased concentrations of salivary glucose
Candidal Vulvovaginitis
ANGULAR STOMATITIS
SPECIFIC SKIN DISORDERS

NECROBIOSIS
LIPOIDICA
Sharply demarcated
plaques of atrophic
yellow skin, which may
ulcerate.
- Female ˃ males
- Common site shins,
but may occur on
face, limbs, trunk
NLD
GRANULOMA ANNULARE
characterized by skin coloured papules
occurring in a ring configuration.
Do not itch.
Common sites: dorsa of hands and feet.
May occur on wrists, arms trunk.
Association with diabetes inconclusive
Diabetic bullae
SCLEREDEMA
- Seen mainly in over weight Type-1
diabetes.
- Characterized by a non-pitting woody
induration of the skin with occasional
erythema.
- Occurs mostly commonly over the back.
- No
specific
treatment,
may
try
methotrexate and cyclosporin.
ERUPTIVE XANTHOMAS
- Lesions typically erupt
as crops of small, redyellow papules
- Most commonly over
buttocks, shoulders,
arms & legs but may
occur anywhere.

PRURITUS IN LIVER DISEASE
CAUSES : Primary biliary cirrhosis, Cirrhosis
Autoimmune hepatitis, Viral: B & C
Mechanism
Exact mechanism is not clear
Most probably due to presence of bile salts in the
skin and release of mast cell mediators
Treatment: treat underlying cause.
May use URSODEOXYCHOLIC ACID 10-15mg/kg
CHOLESTRYMINE 4-16g/day, Rifampicin, Ultraviolet rays,
Opoid antagonists(naloxone)
JAUNDICE
Yellow pigmentation of skin,sclerae and mucosa
due to raised bilirubin level
Clinically jaundice appears when bilirubin level
Rises above 3mg/dl
ERYTHEMA NODOSUM
Painful,red,raised lesions on
shin (may also on thighs or
arms)
May be single or multiple
MALAISE, FEVER, arthralgias
Treatment : treat underlying
cause
Nsaids
Saturated potassium
iodide solution , 5-15
drops three times daily
Bed rest
ERYTHEMA MULTIFORME
Erythematous circular lesions with target
appearance.
lesions may be urticaria-like or sometimes
bullous
CRYOGLOBULINAEMIA
Cryoglobulins are circulating immunoglobulins that
precipitate out in cold. Three types( i , ii and iii )
It is traid of skin, renal and joint disease
Pathogenesis unknown. May be Ag-Ab mediated.
Manifested by: palpable purpura over the lower
extremities, arthralgia, Raynaud’s phenomenon &
neuropathy.
For hcv-positive patients,interferon –alpha and
ribavirin is treatment of choice.
PORPHYRIA CUTANAE TARDA
Due to over production of porphyrin
Characterized by vesicles, blisters and milia
on the dorsal surfaces of hands
Confirmed by elevated elevated porphyrins
and their precursors in urine and faeces.
SPIDER ANGIOMA(NAEVI)
Small angiomata
appear on the surface
of the skin.
Common sites are face
,neck,upper part of
trunk and arms.
Size vary from a
pinhead to 0.5 cm in
diameter
PALMER ERYTHEMA
Reddening of the skin of palms especially over
thenar & hypothenar eminences.
Can involves soles of feet , where it is termed
planter erythema
GYNAECOMASTIA
CLUBBING
Thyroid Disease
Thyroid Hormones
The thyroid secretes predominantly
Thyroxine ( T4)
Small amount Triodothyronine (T3).
T3 & T4 circulate in plasma almost entirely (
>99.9%) bound to transport proteins, TBG.
And albumin.
Thyroid diseases mostly result from
autoimmune process
