We conducted a retrospective clinical investigation of 50 patients who were treated at this hospital for chronic idiopathic urticaria that were switched to bilastine (Bilanoa Ⓡ ) due to inadequate response to second-generation antihistamines (patients with a severity score of at least level 3 and an urticarial activity score [UAS] of at least 3). Significant reduction in UAS was observed 2 weeks after switching to bilastine and this reduction was maintained until 8 weeks after switching. Further, significant UAS score reduction at 2 weeks after switching bilastine was observed regardless of the prior drugs (piperidine/piperazine/tricyclic antihistamine). This analysis indicated that the reduction in UAS was maintained beyond 2 weeks after switching from fexofenadine, olopatadine, levocetirizine, bepotastine, or loratadine to bilastine, but that the reduction in UAS was not maintained beyond 2 weeks after the switch from epinastine. The results of our retrospective investigation suggest that bilastine is effective after switching from most second-generation antihistamines. However, further research on specific drugs is required.

Inverted follicular keratosis (IFK) is considered an irritated type of seborrheic keratosis, originating from the follicular infundibulum. We herein describe 3 cases of IFK. The first case involved a 23yearold woman who had a black nodule located on the dorsum of the nose measuring 23 mm in diameter that had been present for approximately 1 year. The second case involved an 85yearold man with a similar lesion that had been present for approximately half a year. The third case involved a 45yearold man with a similar lesion that had been present for approximately 2 months. The suspected diagnosis, based on clinical and dermoscopic examinations, was basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Excisional biopsies were performed in all 3 cases. The histopathological examination of the biopsy specimens revealed no evidence of BCC; rather, the downward growth of the epithelium, with a number of squamous eddies, was noted. Based on these findings, we diagnosed the patients with IFK. It was not possible to discriminate between IFK and BCC based on the clinical and dermoscopic findings. When physicians encounter a black lesion on the nose similar in appearance to that of BCC, it is important to include IFK in the differential diagnosis.
