PEREZ-ELIZONDO, AD; DEL PINO-ROJAS, GT e GOMEZ-ESPINOZA, M. Psychogenic excoriations: identification, interpretation and approach of a disease of dual assistance. Rev. argent. dermatol. [online]. 2013, vol.94, n.4, pp.11-13. ISSN 1851-300X.
Psychogenic excoriation is an inflammatory dermatosis resulting from compulsive behavior, repeated and self-inflicted skin digging after detailed inspection both tactile and visual with consequent tissue damage often disfiguring. It is observed in young women, adults and middle-aged people with obsessive-compulsive disorders and with anxious and depressive disease. As it is difficult to be medically treated, co-participation between a dermatologist and a psychiatrist is recommended for obtaining the best therapeutic control.
