摘要

背景:瘢痕疙瘩性毛囊炎(FK)也被称为颈部瘢痕疙瘩性痤疮是一种毛囊性头皮疾病,主要见于非洲裔男性。研究表明,FK与头发护理和剃须有关。本研究旨在确定拉各斯某社区FK的流行情况。方法:这是一项在尼日利亚拉各斯岛沙鸡市场进行的以社区为基础的横断面研究。采用自我管理的问卷来获取人口统计和临床信息。FK的诊断是临床的,包括滤泡和瘢痕丘疹、脓疱、结节和颈部肿瘤,有时扩散到头皮其他部位,伴有强烈的瘙痒。结果:共有100名男性和207名女性被纳入研究,并对FK的特征进行了临床评估。所有女性受试者均无FK病史和临床特征。75%的人年龄在30到60岁之间。15名男性受试者有头皮FK病史,8名既往接受过治疗。检查显示4名受访者(4%)存在FK: 3人仅在头皮上,1人在头皮和胡须区域都有;没有人有瘢痕病变。结论:所有FK患者在早期均表现为角化性/滤泡性丘疹。我们认为,市场上和柜台上销售的抗生素和三重作用药膏(由强效类固醇、抗真菌药和抗生素组成)的自我治疗是早期和轻度症状的原因。

Folliculitis keloidalis in an urban market in Lagos, Nigeria: A community survey
Background: Folliculitis keloidalis (FK) also known as acne keloidalis nuchae is a follicular scalp disease found predominantly in males of African origin. Studies suggested that FK is associated with hair care practices and shaving. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of FK in a community in Lagos. Methods: This was a community-based, cross-sectional study at the Sandgrouse market in Lagos Island, Nigeria. Self-administered questionnaires were used to obtain demographic and clinical information. Diagnosis of FK was clinical and included follicular and keloidal papules, pustules, nodules, and tumors at the nape, sometimes spreading to other parts of the scalp, with intense itching. Results: A total of 100 males and 207 women were enlisted in the study and clinically evaluated for features of FK. None of the female participants presented with history and clinical features of FK. Seventy-five percent were between the age of 30 and 60 years. Fifteen male participants had a prior history of FK on the scalp and eight had previous treatment. Examination revealed the presence of FK in four respondents (4%): 3 had only on the scalp and one had on both the scalp and the beard area; and none had keloidal lesions. Conclusion: All respondents with FK presented at the early stage with keratotic/follicular papules. We posit that self-treatment with antibiotics and triple action creams (consisting of potent steroids, antifungal, and antibiotic) sold in the market and over the counter is responsible for the early and mild presentation.
