Recurrent Fluconazole-Induced Fixed Drug Eruption of the Digit with Nail Matrix Involvement: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Skin Appendage Disorders 2023 December
INTRODUCTION: Fixed drug eruptions (FDEs) are cutaneous hypersensitivity reactions due to an offending drug and are rarely associated with nail involvement. Moreover, FDEs associated with fluconazole use are sparsely reported in literature.
CASE PRESENTATION: We report a case of a recurrent FDE with involvement of one finger and corresponding Beau's lines due to fluconazole use. The diagnosis of FDE secondary to fluconazole use was confirmed histopathologically, with improvement after the application of twice daily 0.05% clobetasol propionate ointment.
CONCLUSION: FDEs are hypersensitivity reactions that occur after exposure to an offending drug. FDEs uncommonly affect the nail matrix and are often not caused by fluconazole. It is important for dermatologists to assess for changes in the nail plate when evaluating a patient with FDE and evaluate all medications a patient is taking.
