Histopathological Analysis of the Effect of Photodynamic Action on Post-Chemotherapy Excised Breast Cancer Tissue.

: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women and its mortality is increasing. Therefore, research to improve treatment is of paramount importance. One method of treatment is photodynamic therapy.

Multifocal Pyoderma Gangrenosum with an Underlying Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis: Case Report and the Review of the Literature.

Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is an uncommon, serious, ulcerating skin disease of uncertain etiology. It manifests as a noninfectious, progressive necrosis of the skin characterized by sterile neutrophilic infiltrates. It seems to be a disorder of the immune system.

Acrodermatitis Continua of Hallopeau Evolving into Generalized Pustular Psoriasis Following COVID-19: A Case Report of a Successful Treatment with Infliximab in Combination with Acitretin.

The global pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is emerging. Various cutaneous manifestations have been observed in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, yet exacerbations of psoriasis have been reported sporadically. Acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau (ACH) is an uncommon, sterile pustular dermatosis involving one or more digits.

The potential of photodynamic therapy in current breast cancer treatment methodologies.

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) has been known for over a hundred years, and currently gaining in acceptance as an alternative cancer treatment. Light delivery is still a difficult problem in deep cancer treatment with PDT. Only near-infrared light in the 700-1100 nm range can penetrate deeply into the tissue because most tissue chromophores, including oxyhemoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin, melanin and fat, poorly absorb in the near infrared window.

Rheumatoid neutrophilic dermatitis.

Rheumatoid neutrophilic dermatitis is a rare extra-articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis, both seropositive and seronegative for rheumatoid factor. The condition most often presents as symmetric erythematous papules, nodules, plaques, and urticaria-like lesions in patients with severe, long-lasting rheumatoid arthritis. We report a case of a 65-year-old man with well-controlled rheumatoid arthritis, who developed rheumatoid neutrophilic dermatitis on the right lower leg.
