Description

We report 9 patients suffering from acne conglobata. Among 164 patients with acne vulgaris who consulted our hospital, 9 patients complained of acne conglobata. The 9 patients were all males who were from 16 to 22 years of age. They were treated mainly with tetracyclines and dexamethasone was used before going to bed in a few cases. Two of the 9 patients had not shown any improvement and have severe scarring on their faces and chests. These cases need to be treated with additional drugs, either 13-cis retinoic acid or dexamethasone. DHEA, DHEA-S, testostrone, 5α-DHT and 17α-OHP were measured in 6 patients. DHEA-S was increased in all the patients; on the other hand, DHEA was increased in only two patients.
