Cocaine-Induced Plasma Cell Orificial "Dermatomucositis": A More Accurate Descriptive Term for a Clearly Dermatological Entity.
Angel Fernandez FloresJosé Manuel González MonteroPublished in: The American Journal of dermatopathology (2024)
Although the involvement of the nasal passages and nasal septum in cocaine users has been known for decades, a new presentation affecting the nostrils and upper lip with an inflamed appearance has recently been documented. The authors who identified this presentation termed it "cocaine-related plasma cell mucositis" due to the abundance of plasma cells in the infiltrate. In this article, we present a second case and emphasize the dermal involvement of the lip, leading us to consider the condition as a genuine dermatomucositis.
