Distinguishing pustular psoriasis and acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis on the basis of plasmacytoid dendritic cells and MxA protein

Background Distinguishing acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) and pustular psoriasis (PS) can be challenging. Staining for plasmacytoid dendritic cells, or PDCs (producer of IFN‐α/β), and MxA (an IFN‐α/β inducible protein) may help discriminate these entities. Methods Forty‐three cases...

description Background Distinguishing acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) and pustular psoriasis (PS) can be challenging. Staining for plasmacytoid dendritic cells, or PDCs (producer of IFN‐α/β), and MxA (an IFN‐α/β inducible protein) may help discriminate these entities. Methods Forty‐three cases of AGEP and PS were compiled from two academic institutions. All cases were examined for CD123+ PDCs, eosinophils, acanthosis, papillomatosis, suprapapillary plate thinning, tortuous dilated capillaries, single necrotic keratinocytes, papillary dermal edema, vasculitis, eosinophil exocytosis, intraepidermal pustules, and subcorneal pustules. A subset of cases (n = 26) was stained for MxA. Results Perivascular and intraepidermal PDCs, dilated tortuous vessels, and MxA expression in the dermal inflammatory infiltrate were significantly (P
