Although transcutaneous temperature-controlled radiofrequency (TTCRF) may effectively treat vulvovaginal laxity (VVL), atrophic vaginitis (AV), orgasmic dysfunction (OD), and stress urinary incontinence (SUI), there is a lack of histopathologic evidence to validate its use.Evaluate clinical histological changes induced by TTCRF.This was prospective, nonrandomized trial. Ten female subjects with mild-to-moderate VVL, or without AV, OD, and/or SUI underwent 3 TTCRFs at 4-week intervals. Five...
Eleven newborns admitted consecutively to the neonatal unit with respiratory failure and severe persistent pulmonary hypertension (PPHN) were included in a clinical trial assess efficacy of magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) treatment PPHN. A loading dose 200 mg/kg MgSO4 was given over 20 minutes, followed by continuous infusion 20-150 mg/kg/hour obtain blood concentration between 3.5 5.5 mmol/l. Mean (SD) duration 75.5 (19.8) hours. No other vasodilatory drug administered before or during patients...
We present a case of granular cell atypical fibroxanthoma the scalp. The neoplasm occurred as tender nodule on frontal scalp an 82-year-old Caucasian man. Histology demonstrated diffuse proliferation epithelioid cells with abundant cytoplasm. Many had large irregular nuclei and mitotic figures were present. Immunohistochemical stains positive for CD68 procollagen 1 negative cytokeratin, HMB-45 S-100 protein. phenotype has been observed in other cutaneous neoplasms including tumors,...
In a crossover trial left ventricular output (LVO), cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV), and resistance index (RI) of the anterior artery were compared using Doppler ultrasonography, in eight preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) during conventional mechanical ventilation high frequency oscillation. LVO was 14% to 18% lower There no significant changes CBFV. On first day life there trend towards RI on oscillation; fall oscillation not related lung hyperinflation. Changes...
Summary Introduction An antiaging regimen that aids in clearing the matrix of waste products and stimulating neocollagenesis neoelastogenesis was tested among a group subjects over course 12 weeks to assess its efficacy women with mild moderate wrinkles skin sagging on face. Materials methods The product 22 using investigator clinical grading measurements, raking light imaging, 3D biopsies, self‐assessment questionnaires at baseline 4, 8, 12. Results Clinical indicated use for produced...
Tattoos may be associated with medical complications including, albeit rarely, skin cancer. The features of a 46-year-old man who developed basal cell carcinoma within tattoo on his left scapula are described and the characteristics other 13 patients (7 men 6 women) tattoo-associated reviewed. tumor usually occurs sun-exposed individuals aged 60 years older whose has often been present for 20 or more. pathogenesis developing merely coincidence. However, there is supporting evidence that...
Terbinafine is an antifungal agent used in the treatment of hair, nail, and skin dermatophyte infections. Skin side effects to terbinafine are not common. Lichenoid drug eruption a medication-related adverse cutaneous event; lesion morphology pathology mimic lichen planus. A woman with onychomycosis developed lichenoid one week after starting terbinafine. The features her dermatosis characteristics two additional men who also experienced terbinafine-induced discussed. They were receiving...
Background Bellafill® is a soft tissue dermal filler composed of non‐resorbable polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) microspheres, suspended in water‐based carrier gel 3.5% bovine collagen. It has been approved by the FDA for correction nasolabial folds and atrophic facial acne scars. Energy‐based therapies are used rejuvenation treatment scarring. However, little published about effects energy devices on previously placed PMMA. This prospective, vivo clinical study evaluated safety...
Nevus sebaceus is a benign skin hamartoma of congenital onset that grows during puberty, and in adulthood can develop secondary malignant neoplasms. The most common neoplasms occurring nevus are believed to be syringocystadenoma papilliferum, trichilemmoma, trichoblastoma. A patient with developed not only papilliferum but also prurigo nodularis within her hamartomatous lesion; multiple biopsies were necessary establish the diagnoses. Excision residual revealed an apocrine cystadenoma,...
Perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) expresses melanocytic and smooth muscle markers. A man with a primary malignant cutaneous (distal left forearm) PEComa is reported. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated MiTF, HMB-45, caldesmon, desmin, actin, as well BCL1, CD10, CD68. Next generation sequencing showed four pathogenic genomic aberrations involving BIRC3, FANCC, TP53, TSC1 genes. His work-up was negative for metastatic disease; wide local excision performed. Including the reported...
Dermal melanocytosis is a benign phenomenon most commonly noted in people with darkly pigmented skin. Multiple entities dermal are described, including Mongolian spot, nevus of Ota, Ito, Hori, and acquired melanocytosis. We report case occurring 42-year-old Hispanic man psoriasis treated infliximab for 9 months. The patient presented an isolated patch on his left dorsal hand. Histopathologic examination the skin revealed numerous dendritic, heavily melanocytes papillary upper reticular...

Abstract We describe a previously healthy 15‐month‐old girl who developed ecthyma gangrenosum ( EG )–like lesions secondary to methicillin‐sensitive Staphylococcus aureus MSSA ). Her systemic symptoms and negative blood cultures suggested toxin‐mediated effects. When accompany such lesions, pathogens other than Pseudomonas aeruginosa should be considered.
