However, some patients who are affected already live at sea level.18,19,27 Some authors are considering a food photosensitizer or a nutritional selective deficiency as a cause however, no evidence proves this theory.27 Symptoms AP is characterized by itchy, inflamed papules, nodules, and plaques on the skin. Lesions typically appear hours or days after exposure of the skin to UV light, and follow a general pattern of sun exposed areas. The face, neck, arms, hands, and legs are often affected, although lesions sometimes appear on skin that is covered by clothing and thus not exposed to UV light, thus making AP somewhat difficult to diagnose.

The Vienna School of Dermatology was a group of dermatologists affiliated to the University of Vienna who became an important reference in the development of modern dermatology in the second half of the 19th century. It was founded by Ferdinand Ritter von Hebra 1816 1888 with the collaboration of his mentor, Carl Freiherr von Rokitansky 1804 1878 and Carl Wedl 1815 1891 , a pathologist with interest in skin diseases . Their pupils, Isidor Neumann 1832 1906 , Salomon Stricker 1834 1898 , Heinrich Auspitz 1834 1885 , Moritz Kaposi 1837 1902 , all of the same generation and Paul Gerson Unna 1850 1929 and Salomon Ehrmann 1854 1926 , continued the tradition. Unna later became the father of German dermatopathology. Von Hebra first organized the dermatological service in the Vienna General Hospital . He was inspired by the movement towards a scientific dermatology already established in England by Robert Willan 1757 1812 and Thomas Bateman physician Thomas Bateman 1778 1821 and in France by Jean Louis Marc Alibert 1768 1837 , Laurent Th odore Biett 1781 1840 , Pierre Louis Alph e Cazenave 1795 1877 and Pierre Fran ois Olive Rayer 1793 1867 . The Vienna School adopted the approach of pathology as influenced by the great Carl von Rokitansky, a professor of von Hebra and the doctrine of local causative agents. For example, 2,000 of the first 2,500 dermatological patients treated by von Hebra had scabies . The members of the Vienna School discovered and described many new diseases and signs, such as Auspitz s sign Eczema herpeticum Erythema exudativum multiforme Hebra s disease Hebra s prurigo Impetigo herpetiformis Kaposi Irgang syndrome Kaposi s sarcoma Lichen acuminatus Lichen planus bullosus Lichen ruber moniliformis Lupus erythematosus Pityriasis rubra Tinea cruris Unna Politzer naevus Unna s disease Unna Thost syndrome Xeroderma pigmentosa Bibliography Finnerud CW.
