Description

Five cases of rosacea-like dermatitis and three cases of perioral dermatitis were reported. These cases were all female, and were aged 28-53. In the cases of rosacea-like dermatitis fluorinated corticosteroids were applied for 3-15 years, as under-cosmetics in 3 cases. In another 3 cases, hypersensitive disposition of vasomotor nerve was revealed. In the cases of perioral dermatitis, corticosteroids were applied for 6-12 months. Those cases were treated by the local application of hydrocortisone butyrate ointment and boric acid zinc oxide ointment, and the oral administration of vitamin B2, pantethine and tetracycline. Capillary dilatations were treated by electrolysis. It was considered that the appearance of rosacea-like dermatitis and perioral dermatitis was related to the patient’s degree of seriousness, and especially in the cases of rosacea-like dermatitis it was closely related to the method and the duration of corticosteroids application, and that the capillary dilatation and the atrophy of skin were due to the pharmacological effect of corticosteroids.
