Pruritus, defined as an unpleasant sensation that compels scratching, is a common occurrence in dermatological disorders. Chronic pruritus is defined as itching that persists for a period exceeding six weeks. Lichen simplex chronicus (LSC) is a chronic dermatological condition that presents with dry, scaly, and thickened skin lesions, which typically arise from habitual scratching. Additionally, paraneoplastic pruritus may serve as an early indicator of the presence of solid tumours. This case report outlines the diagnostic and therapeutic process of a 73-year-old male diagnosed with lichen simplex chronicus (LSC), confirmed by skin biopsy. Subsequent malignancy screening revealed the presence of solid nodules in the lungs and multiple metastatic masses in the liver. Biopsies of the lung nodule and liver mass demonstrated positivity for TTF-1 and synaptophysin, leading to a diagnosis of mixed component lung adenocarcinoma and small cell lung cancer. In order to ascertain the underlying cause of the patient's chronic itching, a comprehensive investigation was conducted, which considered a range of potential factors, including haematological diseases, endocrine disorders, liver diseases, infections, drug-related factors, and neurological and psychiatric causes. Despite a comprehensive evaluation, the precise etiology of the chronic itching remained elusive. The initiation of carboplatin and etoposide therapy for lung cancer resulted in a significant reduction in the patient's itching, which may suggest a possible link between chronic itching and malignancy. Unfortunately, the patient succumbed to hypoxia, pneumonia, and multiple organ failure two months post-diagnosis. This case serves to illustrate the potential of chronic pruritus as a symptom of cancer. While paraneoplastic pruritus is often associated with haematological malignancies, this report highlights that it can also occur with solid tumours. It is important for clinicians to be aware of this potential association, as it allows for timely diagnosis and treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Bu çalışmada, deri problemlerine sebep olan enfektif ve non-enfektif hastalıkların tedavisinde sahada yaygın olarak kullanılmakta olan tedavi protokolleri ve preperatlara alternatif olarak doğal bir pestisit olan Odun Sirkesi’nin etkinliğinin araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Sürüler de bulunan hayvanlar kaşıntı, tüy döküntüsü, deri lezyonları gibi deri problemleri yönünden klinik olarak muayeneleri yapılarak çalışmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Deri problemi görülen koyunlar rastgele seçilerek, odun sirkesi tedavisi uygulanan (n=26), Flutick uygulanan (n=16) ve Dectomax uygulan (n=14) olmak üzere üç gruba ayrıldı. Çalışmaya dahil edilen hayvanlardan hemogram ve kan gazı bulgularını değerlendirmek için steril kan tüplerine kan örnekleri alındı. Parazitolojik muayene için deri lezyonlarının olduğu bölgelerden steril petri kaplarına deri kazıntısı ve kıl örnekleri alındı. Histopatolojik yönden incelenmek üzere 21 hayvandan deri biyopsisi alındı. Alınan numunelerden elde edilen sonuçların istatistiki değerlendirmeleri ve klinik olarak iyileşen hayvanlara bakılarak yapılan değerlendirmelere göre odun sirkesi grubunda %96,2 gibi yüksek bir iyileşme oranı olduğu belirlenmiştir. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Wood Vinegar, which is a natural pesticide, as an alternative to the treatment protocols and preparations that are widely used in the field in the treatment of infective and non-infective diseases that cause skin problems. The animals in the herd were included in the study by clinical examination in terms of skin problems such as itching, hair rash and skin lesions. Sheep with skin problems were randomly selected and divided into three groups as wood vinegar treatment (n=26), Flutick applied (n=16) and Dectomax applied (n=14). Blood samples were taken from the animals included in the study into sterile blood tubes to evaluate the hemogram and blood gas findings. For parasitological examination, skin scrapings and hair samples were taken from the areas with skin lesions in sterile petri dishes. Skin biopsies were taken from 21 animals for histopathological examination. According to the statistical evaluations of the results obtained from the samples taken and the evaluations made by looking at the clinically recovered animals, it was determined that there was a high recover rate of 96.2% in the wood vinegar group.
