A Clinicopathological Study on Interface Dermatitis

Background: Interface dermatitis (ID), also known as lichenoid tissue reaction, is a form of skin reaction characterized by an inflammatory infiltration that appears to cover the dermo-epidermal junction under inexpensively analysis. A wide range of inflammatory skin disorders demonstrate interface alteration with significant overlap of histological characteristics. Aim of the Study: The purpose of this study was to link interface dermatitis clinicopathologically. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive type of study was conducted in the department of dermatology and venereology, TMSS Medical College, Bogura, Bangladesh, from January 2021 to December 2022. The study included 200 patients aged 5 to 75. Skin biopsies were obtained from clinically confirmed cases of lichenoid skin lesions and sent for histological investigation. The correlation was then performed with clinical diagnosis. All acquired data was analysed using descriptive statistics in SPSS 11.5. Results: Out of 200 cases evaluated, the most common type of ID was Lichen simplex chronicus (95, 47.5%), with Lichen planus (LP) and its variants coming in second (84, 42%). LP-like keratosis (15, 7.5%), Inflammatory verrucous epidermal nevus (ILVEN) 2 cases, Pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformisacuta (PLE-VA) 2 cases, and Prurigosimplex (PS) 2 cases were the least prevalent. Clinicopathological concordance was seen in 84 (42%) of the lichen planus patients and discordance in 116 (58%) of the cases. Conclusion: In our investigation, the most consistent histological results were basement membrane degenerations such as lymphocytic infiltrates along the dermo-epidermal interface. Interface dermatitis refers to a group of conditions that share clinical and histological characteristics. As a result, comprehensive histological studies are required to identify distinct features of various kinds of interface dermatitis.
