dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVE: Obesity is known to be a risk factor for many diseases including dermatological problems. Here, we aimed to determine the cutaneous manifestations in obese patients and the frequency of the accompanying dermatoses and to investigate the effect of diabetes mellitus in obese patients on cutaneous manifestations compared with the control group. METHODS: Our study included a total of 600 adults: 450 obese volunteers and 150 healthy volunteers. The number of diabetic obese patients was 138 (30%), whereas that of nondiabetic obese patients was 312 (70%). A detailed dermatological examination was performed for each case, and accompanying dermatoses were compared. RESULTS: The mean body mass index (BMI) in the obese patients and control group was 37.22 kg/m(2) and 22.23 kg/m(2), respectively. The most common dermatoses in the obese patients were, according to their frequency: striae distensae (291 patients, 64.7%), acrochordon (236 patients, 52.4%), acanthosis nigricans (213 patients, 47.3%), plantar hyperkeratosis (209 patients, 46.4%), and venous insufficiency (202 patients, 44.9%). Although hirsutism was more frequently observed in the nondiabetic obese group than in the diabetic obese group, stasis dermatitis was less frequently observed (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: We found that many dermatoses are more frequently observed in the obese patients than in the controls. We observed that the effect of obesity on skin is different from that of diabetes mellitus and that cutaneous manifestations of obesity occur more frequently. More extensive, comprehensive, and advanced studies on this subject are required.en_US
