We studied twenty-five skin biopsies from twenty-one patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or its prodrome who presented the "seborrheic dermatitis" associated and compared them an equal number of seborrheic dermatitis had neither nor risk factors. found that although eruption in closely resembles dermatitis, histologically it is distinctive because shows spotty keratinocytic necrosis, leukoexocytosis, a superficial perivascular infiltrate plasma cells and, frequently, neutrophils...
BACKGROUND Recently, a 23‐gene signature was developed to produce melanoma diagnostic score capable of differentiating malignant and benign melanocytic lesions. The primary objective this study independently assess the ability gene differentiate from nevi in clinically relevant METHODS A set 1400 lesions selected samples prospectively submitted for expression testing at clinical laboratory. Each sample tested subjected an independent histopathologic evaluation by 3 experienced...
Exposure of skin to ultraviolet (UV) radiation is known induce NF-κB activation, but the functional role for this pathway in UV-induced cutaneous inflammation remains uncertain. In study, we examined whether experimentally induced sunburn reactions mice could be prevented by blocking UV-induced, NF-κB–dependent gene transactivation with oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) containing cis element (NF-κB decoy ODNs). secretion IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α, and VEGF skin-derived cell lines was inhibited ODNs, not...
Skin cancers are common and there has been a dramatic increase in their incidence, particularly melanoma. However, little is known about awareness of melanoma early detection practices the general U.S. population.In 1995, American Academy Dermatology increased efforts to promote This study was conducted document current knowledge self-examination practices.In February telephone survey nationally representative sample 1001 persons at least 18 years age (3% margin error) that included...
<h3>Background and Design:</h3> We compared the efficacy safety of a medium-depth chemical peel with those standard regimen topical fluorouracil in treatment widespread facial actinic keratoses (AK). Fifteen patients severe damage similar numbers AK on both sides face were treated left side single application Jessner's solution 35% trichloroacetic acid right twice daily applications 5% cream for 3 weeks. Evaluations conducted before at 1, 6, 12 months after treatment. Visible counted, random...
• Within the last several years, a newly characterized condition known as bacillary epithelioid angiomatosis (BEA) has been described in number of patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. All cases heretofore have seen HIV We recently evaluated 37-year-old healthy man who had localized form BEA confirmed by biopsy, special stains, electron microscopy, and culture. conclude that previously defined may occur healthy, non-HIV-infected individuals. (<i>Arch...
BACKGROUND Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) with histologically contiguous actinic keratosis has long been thought of as a tumor minimal risk for metastasis. The objective this study was to determine if is present in the original tumors metastatic cutaneous SCC and describe histologic features these tumors. METHODS primary lesions 22 patients were examined using light microscopy. RESULTS Contiguous 44% that metastasized. average thickness 6.6 mm. Greater than 66% well or moderately...
Actinic keratoses (AKs) are primarily induced by ultraviolet (UV) radiation and often identified as premalignant lesions. In our opinion, AKs proliferations of transformed, neoplastic keratinocytes confined to the epidermis that may eventually extend into dermis, at which point they termed squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). contrast AKs, SCCs have potential metastasize kill. This process is analogous evolving uterine cervix has been cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), a time-tested...
