Dermoscopy Features of Acquired Perforating Dermatosis Among 39 Patients.

In this report, we concluded there are four dermoscopic features of APD including a yellow-brown homogeneous structureless area in the center of the lesion, dotted and linear vessels distribution radially and a dam shape uplift at the periphery, as well as a white irregular ring surrounding the lesion. There are three features, including the yellow-brown homogeneous structureless area in the center of the lesion, the dotted and linear vessels distribution radially and the white irregular ring surrounding the lesion were correspond to the report of Emma Ormerod et al.These features are also similar to those previously discribed in three separated reports of seven cases with APD.

Clinicopathology, immunophenotype, T cell receptor gene rearrangement, Epstein-Barr virus status and p53 gene mutation of cutaneous extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal-type.

Background: Extranodal natural killer/T-cell (NK/T cell) lymphoma, nasal-type, is a rare lymphoma. Skin is the second most common site of involvement after the nasal cavity/nasalpharynx. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinicopathologic features, immunophenotype, T cell receptor (TCR) gene rearrangement, the association with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection and p53 gene mutations of the lymphoma.

[Diagnostic significance of immunophenotyping and detection of gene rearrangement in subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma].

Objective: To explore the diagnostic implication of immunophenotyping and gene rearrangement in subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma (SPTL).

Methods: According to the selection criteria of 2005 WHO-EORTC classification for cutaneous lymphomas, 20 SPTL patients were enrolled in this study. A 10-antibody panel was used for immunophenotyping and in addition, polymerase chain reaction for TCR gamma and IgH gene rearrangement and in situ hybridization for EBER1/2 were also employed.
