Herein we describe the first case to our knowledge of primary nodular amyloidosis of the glans penis, in which the amyloid originates from keratinocytes rather than immunoglobulins. A man in his 50s presented with a 6-year history of slowly expanding asymptomatic lesions on the penis that “bruised” after sexual activity and had eluded correct diagnosis for over 6 years.
Diagnostic.Le diagnostic du psoriasis est principalement d’ordre clinique. Il existe différents types cliniques du psoriasis (Tableau 1)1, le plus commun étant le psoriasis chronique en plaques, qui touche de 80 à 90 % des patients atteints de psoriasis. Les signes distinctifs du psoriasis en plaques habituel comportent des plaques bien délimitées, symétriques et érythémateuses recouvertes de squames argentées (Figure 1).
Although there is no cure for psoriasis, there are multiple effective treatment options (Figure 7). Topical therapy is the standard of care for treatment of mild to moderate disease. A large proportion of patients would benefit from topical therapy, which can be initiated at the primary care level.
