Dermatoses Pigment

Dermatosis pigmentosa, also known as dermatosis Aurois, is a rare genetic disorder that affects the pigmentation of the skin and can lead to the development of several other symptoms.

The main symptom of pigmentary dermatosis is the appearance of dark spots on the skin. These spots can come in different shapes and sizes and usually appear on the face, neck, arms and legs. They can be flat or convex and their color can range from light brown to black.

In addition to skin patches, dermatosis pigmentosa can also cause other symptoms such as decreased visual acuity, cataracts, hearing problems, developmental delays and poor coordination.

Dermatosis pigmentosa is a hereditary disease that is inherited from parents. It is associated with a change in the gene responsible for the production of a protein necessary for the normal development of the skin, eyes and nervous system.

Diagnosis of dermatosis pigmentosa may include a physical examination of the skin and eyes, as well as genetic tests to determine whether there are changes in genes associated with the development of the disease.

Treatment for dermatosis pigmentosa is aimed at managing symptoms. Although there is no cure that can completely cure the condition, certain procedures, such as laser pigmentation removal, can help reduce the number of dark spots and improve the appearance of the skin.

Overall, pigmentary dermatosis is a serious condition that can have a significant negative effect on the patient's quality of life. However, with proper diagnosis and symptom management, sufferers can live full lives and have a good chance of remaining healthy.
