Cutaneous leiomyosarcomas (LMS) are rare in comparison with their deep-seated soft tissue and uterine counterparts, have been poorly characterized. The aim was to verify whether the clinical behaviour of purely dermal LMS is different from that minimal subcutis invasion.Twenty-one 15 extension were analysed. Tumours developed 27 men nine women (age range 29-91 years); most tumours showed a fasciculated (n = 23), pilar-type 12) pleomorphic 1) pattern. During follow-up period (range 2-192,...
To describe immune-mediated skin lesion (IMSL) development in patients during anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) therapy.Two hundred and fifty-two with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) 183 spondyloarthropathies (SpA) treated anti-TNF inhibitors were analysed to identify IMSLs.Of the 252 RA (146 infliximab, 72 adalimumab, 34 etanercept), 32 developed IMSLs. Eleven psoriatic lesions, 10 presented granuloma annulare (GA), five had vasculitis, two alopecia areata, discoid lupus erythematosus, one...
Objective: To describe granuloma annulare (GA) skin lesion development in patients during anti-tumour necrosis factor (TNF) therapy. Methods: 199 with rheumatoid arthritis and 127 suffering from spondyloarthropathies treated anti-TNF antagonists were analysed to identify lesions suggesting GA. Results: Nine cases of GA therapy (123 infliximab, 57 adalimumab 17 etanercept) for identified. Two have been six one etanercept, here the was 4.5%. No patient developed such lesions. All generalised...
Abstract Background Either cryosurgery or topical imiquimod have been used to treat patients with lentigo maligna in cases where surgery is not feasible. Methods We report a patient , who was treated the combination of and cryosurgery, review rationale, which led us design present combined cryo‐immunological treatment modality. Results Sustained clearance date (26 months after treatment). The successful this based on following rationale: A session during continuing application may: (i)...
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and C-KIT are involved in tumor progression several human neoplasms. The aim of the present study has been to investigate their immunohistochemical expression melanocytic lesions. We examined 11 compound nevi, 12 dysplastic 18 melanomas. Immunostaining for VEGF was observed only melanomas; c-kit detected melanomas (higher radial than vertical phase) nevi (predominantly junctional component). Our data indicate that assessment might aid differential...
The balanopreputial sulcus is believed to be the most frequent site of so-called Tyson’s glands. intriguing feature these anatomical structures their mere existence, which has been doubted. Herein, authors present a case 24-year-old man who underwent surgical treatment his phimosis. On microscopic examination specimen, glands with morphological features similar those described by Tyson were noted.
Presented in this report is a 66-year-old male with widespread persistent erythema multiforme mostly atypical appearance, which was detected well before the diagnosis of underlying extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. The lesions regressed response to chemotherapy, but they appeared again connection tumor relapse. Clinicians should recognize as one paraneoplastic dermatoses and efforts be made detect internal malignancies patients these skin lesions.
Periocular xanthogranulomatous diseases are a rare group of disorders which characterized by predilection to affect the orbit and ocular adnexa special histopathological features, in particular infiltrates comprising non-Langerhans-derived foamy histiocytes Touton giant cells. The differential diagnosis is difficult occasionally definite cannot be established even after clinical findings taken together. We describe case middle-aged man who presented with 10-year history voluminous eyelid...
Sweet's syndrome characterized by fever, blood neutrophilia and inflammatory skin lesions, is rarely diagnosed in children. It presents three clinical settings: classical syndrome, usually after a respiratory tract infection; malignancy-associated, frequently related to acute myelogeneous leukemia; drug-induced. We present, the best of our knowledge, first case rotavirus -infection-related syndrome.An 18-month-old boy Hellenic origin was referred us with diarrhea, neutrophilia, typical...

Eosinophilic cellulitis (Wells' syndrome) is a polyetiologic clinical entity with still obscure pathogenesis. Clinically overt toxocariasis uncommon in adults, yet helminthozoonoses, including have been occasionally implicated the pathogenesis of eosinophilic cellulitis.A 55-year-old female patient presented skin biopsy verified recurring febrile cellulitis, blood eosinophilia (42%), slight anaemia (Hct 35%), hepatosplenomegaly and positive specific anti-Toxocara canis antibodies....
Plexiform neurofibroma of the cauda equina is extremely rare. Herein, a case reported in 56-year-old man who also had muscle atrophy, severe motor disturbance, and mild sensory disturbance left leg due to childhood poliomyelitis. The clinical symptoms manifested insidiously until patient developed syndrome. At operation, tumor mass was observed engulf nerve roots equina. After pathological examination, diagnosis plexiform made. Neither described herein nor any previously patients neurofibromatosis.
Chronic periaortitis (CP) is usually accompanied by at least mild manifestations of systemic autoimmunity; however, skin are rare. Here, we report an 82-year-old woman presenting with a pruritic annular eosinophilic dermatosis that led to the diagnosis recurrent cutaneous vasculitis (RCEV) coexisting latent CP. The present paper reminder CP should be included as potential differential in elaboration patients suspicious underlying autoimmunity.
We investigate the linkages between religious life and financial decisions using detailed survey data from a sample of Dutch households. Controlling for large number demographic characteristics background factors, we show that adherents to Protestant and, at lesser extent, Catholic denominations exhibit lower degree risk aversion are more likely invest in stocks, options bonds.
