Abstract
Dentre as dermatoses psiquiátricas, a escoriação psicogênica caracteriza-se pela confissão do paciente de provocar as lesões, sem apresentar doença dermatológica de base. Verificou-se que o assunto tem sido pouco abordado na literatura, com enfoque nos diagnósticos psicológicos. Dados epidemiológicos indicaram uma prevalência de 2 a 3 %, em relação à população geral, 2%, entre pacientes dermatológicos, e 9%, em pacientes com prurido, com predomínio significativo em mulheres. O artigo relata três casos brasileiros e discute o plano terapêutico constituído de equipe interdisciplinar, permitindo indicações psicoterapêuticas e medicamentosas específicas a cada caso.
Among psychiatric dermatoses, the psychogenic excoriation is characterized by patient's confession to provoking the lesions, without presenting any dermatological underlying pathology. This topic has been rarely approached in the literature, focusing on the diversity of psychological diagnoses. Epidemiological data indicated that prevalence varies from 2 to 3% in the general population, 2% among dermatological patients and 9% in patients with itching, with significant prevalence in women. The present article report three Brazilian cases and discusses the therapeutic plan based on multidisciplinary teamwork,including indications of psychotherapy and specific drug therapy to each case.
