[Histology of skin changes caused by external corticoid preparations].
Skin changes produced in 70 persons by prolonged topical application of corticosteroids were studied with light microscopy. Epidermal atrophy, alterations of the skin adnexa and changes in the dermal tissue are characterizing the so called corticosteroid-skin. It is suggested that the changes are dependent as well on duration and intensity of the corticosteroid treatment, as on individual factors.
