Hydroa Vacciniforme

Hydroa vacciniformes is a malignant neoplasm of schistocyte cells, manifesting itself in the form of numerous round or oval ulcers, clearly outlined by grooves of exfoliating epidermis, most often located on the face and neck. It is more common in women than in men; the age limit of the disease is 20-50 years. Under the influence of hormonal changes, the appearance of the skin can change, creating the appearance of inflammatory processes. Hydroa vacciniform almost never occurs at sites of normal skin damage and begins to appear after minor injuries. Defects at the site of injury can exist for years; many patients consider them to have arisen independently and do not seek help. With the long-term existence of hydra vacciniform, a shift in the venous pattern, turgor, and skin color throughout the face occurs, including a change in the shape of the nose. The disease tends to be localized at the border of the face and neck, which requires constant monitoring and treatment. Constant trauma to the skin leads to the spread of the disease to adjacent areas of the skin. The changes caused by hydra vacciniforme are similar to senile processes on the skin, which are characterized by pigmentation, dryness and changes in skin turgor, wrinkling, blurred dermis patterns, and changes in hair color.

Complaints and history Initially, patients with hydra vacuinoculoma are often bothered by skin itching as a typical factor that causes the disease. Characteristic is the seasonality of the occurrence of complaints and clinical manifestations, coinciding with periods of hormonal changes in the body (ovulation and menstruation in women). The skin defect is almost invariably the dominant element, above which all others can be located. Due to repeated inflammatory processes, the parameters of the dermal pattern change (increased branching of veins, changes in skin color), and a significant number of folds of the dermis are formed in intact areas of the skin. The boundaries of skin lesions are often soft, indicating the absence of inflammation. Very typical is the presence of signs of perioral dermatitis (in the area around the mouth) - dryness, small spots, rash in the mouth area.

Rashes occur more often in spring and summer, less often in winter. Patients may experience lacrimation and episcleritis at the onset of the disease. For an accurate diagnosis, the doctor must recognize other skin rashes and distinguish them from the initial symptoms of disseminated scleroderma-like skin diseases (non-inflammatory dermatoses that are characterized by peeling skin).



Hydroa vaccinifom is a rare dermatological disease that appears as small skin rashes that can be mistaken for normal urticaria. However, such rashes leave marks on the skin and are inherited. Hydroa vacinforma is a rare hereditary disease that has a number of features in its development, ranging from minor changes on the scalp to severe symptoms on the extremities. Treatment and prevention of this disease include maintaining a healthy lifestyle, a balanced diet, walks in the fresh air, and lack of stress. To avoid unpleasant consequences, patients with hydrovacinforma should be observed by a doctor from birth to old age.



Hidroa vacuciniforme is a malignant neoplasm in the anus and rectum. It has a sharp shape and protrudes beyond the anal canal. Initially, the development of hydroa occurred with external itching and acute pain during a trip to the toilet. Patients complained of bleeding, pain, difficulty in emptying stool, and prolonged bleeding afterward.

Hidroa can occur against the background of ulcerative colitis and other cancers
