The two most important [[Differential diagnosis|differential diagnoses]] of PPE is Acute [[Graft-versus-host disease|Graft-Versus-Host Disease]] (AGVHD) in patients who have received a [[Bone marrow transplantation|bone marrow transplant]]


The distinction of these clinical entities are important since the treatments are distinct and a [[biopsy]] may not be able to distinguish them in a [[Clinical|clinically]] relevant time-frame. 


In differentiating between PPE and AGVHD, the following factors suggest the presence of AGVHD:


* Different pattern of involvement of the [[Palms of the hands|palms]] and [[soles]] in AGVHD: a [[diffuse]] [[macular]] [[erythema]] which may form [[papules]] in contrast to the areas of well-defined intense [[erythema]] and [[edema]] in PPE <ref name="pmid9236526">{{cite journal| author=Valks R, Fraga J, Porras-Luque J, Figuera A, Garcia-Diéz A, Fernändez-Herrera J| title=Chemotherapy-induced eccrine squamous syringometaplasia.

* '''Premycotic phase:''' A scaly, red [[rash]] in areas of the [[body]] that usually are not exposed to the sun. This rash does not cause symptoms and may last for months or years.
* '''Patch phase:''' Thin, [[erythematous]][[eczema]]-like rash.
* '''[[Plaque]] phase:''' Small raised [[Bumps on skin|bumps]] ([[Papule|papules]]) or hardened [[lesions]] on the skin, which may be [[erythematous]].
* '''[[Tumor]] phase:''' Tumors form on the [[skin]]. [[Infection]] secondary to [[Ulcer|ulcers]].

* [[Epidermis (skin)|Epidermal]] [[atrophy]] or poikiloderma


However, [[histologic]] features of both diseases are identical in early stages and serial [[Biopsy|biopsies]] may be needed to distinguish these two entities. <ref name="pmid3527075">{{cite journal| author=Crider MK, Jansen J, Norins AL, McHale MS| title=Chemotherapy-induced acral erythema in patients receiving bone marrow transplantation. | journal=Arch Dermatol | year= 1986 | volume= 122 | issue= 9 | pages= 1023-7 | pmid=3527075 | doi= | pmc= | url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=3527075  }} </ref>

Pityriasis rosea[2]
  • Pink or salmon in color, which may be scaly; referred to as "herald patch"
  • Oval shape
  • Long axis oriented along the cleavage lines
  • Distributed on the trunk and proximal extremities
  • Squamous marginal collarette and a “fir-tree” or “Christmas tree” distribution on posterior trunk
  • Secondary to viral infections
  • Resolves spontaneously after 6-8 weeks

Pityriasis lichenoides chronica
  • Recurrent lesions are usually less evenly scattered than in cases of psoriasis
  • Brownish red or orange-brown in color
  • Lesions are capped by a single detachable, opaque, mica-like scale
  • Often leave hypopigmented macules

Small plaque parapsoriasis[17]
  • Erythematous plaques with fine scaly surface
  • May present with elongated, finger-like patches
  • Symmetrical distribution on the flanks
  • Known as digitate dermatosis
  • Lesions may be asymptomatic
  • May be mildly pruritic
  • May fade or disappear after sun exposure during the summer season, but typically recur during the winter
