The pathology related to a tick bite reaction is well described. Formation of a cavity below the mouthparts of the tick and mixed dense cellular dermal infiltration are general histopathologic findings of a tick bite. In addition, granuloma formation, vasculitic response, and panniculitis were reported. We present two cases of tick bite showing a new histopathologic finding, a localized fat herniation response.

Korean Journal of Infectious Diseases 1997;29(1):53-56
We report herein an unusual case of tick bite. A 56 year old woman complained of erythematous nodular skin lesion on the left upper chest. An excision biopsy specimen of the lesion showed darkish-red nodule, in which there was a tick. It was identified as an adult female of Ixodes nipponensis by the scanning electron microscopic examination.

Pseudolymphoma refers to a heterogenous group of benign reactive T- or B-cell lymphoproliferative processes of diverse causes that simulate cutaneous lymphomas clinically and/or histologically. This condition may be caused by known stimuli such as medications, infections or the bites of arthropods, or may be idiopathic. Herein we report a 36-year-old woman who developed a red nodule on the left neck following a tick bite 7 months earlier. Biopsy specimen of the left neck showed diffuse infiltrate of lymphocytes admixed with many eosinophils arrayed throughout the reticular dermis. The infiltrating cells were positive for UCHL-1, L-26(CD20) and focal positive for lambda-chain and kappa-chain, but negative for Bcl-2 and Bcl-6.

Korean Journal of Dermatology 2001;39(8):891-895
We report a case of a tick bite by Ixodes nipponensis found on the neck of a 75-year-old female. The tick was thought to be in the lesion for 10 days. Till now 31 cases of tick bites were reported in Korea including the present case. The review of the Korean cases revealed that the ratio of female/male was 1.3 : 1, its age distribution was from 1st to 8th decade, sites of the invasion were trunk, head and neck, extremities, and anogenital area in order of frequency. Its prevalent season was spring and summer and the most common species(17/31) was Ixodes nipponensis.

Tick bites are dermatoses not commonly encountered in Korea. Identification of causative ticks as well as recognition of clinical signs and histopathologic findings are important in making a diagnosis in tick-related dermatoses. Hard ticks which belong to the Family Ixodidae are responsible for most tick-related diseases. Since the first human case of tick bite in Korea was reported in 1982, seventeen cases have been reported up to the present. All the inflicted ticks belonged to the genus Ixodes except a case by Haemaphysalis flava. Among 16 ticks, collected from 16 cases of tick bites caused by the genus Ixodes, nine I. nipponenses, an I. ovatus and I. persulcatus were identified. Recently we experienced 8 cases of tick bites, 6 of them were caused by the genus Ixodes including 4 I. nipponenses. One of them, whose essential complaint was fever and chills, showed the clinical course of tick bite pyrexia which had not been reported in Korea. The clinical and epidemiological findings of tick bites reported in Korea were reviewed, including these 8 cases.

Since 1982, 31 cases of tick bites were reported in Korea and only one case of Haemaphysalis longicornis related to tick bites was included. Until now, nymph related or multiple tick(more than three) related to tick bites were not reported in the Korean literatures. We report three cases of tick bites by Haemaphysalis longicornis. The first case is a 71-year-old Korean woman who had a tick stuck on the anterior chest area. The second case is a 64-year-old Korean man who visited a clinic for pruritic, multiple, erythematous papules and nodules. The third case is 50-year-old man who visited the hospital for pruritic, erythematous nodules on calf area. Eight ticks were collected from three patients which were one female in the first case, two females in the second case and two females and three nymphs in the third case and all of them were identified as Haemaphysalis longicornis.
