Serpentine Supra-venous Hyperpigmentation "Badge of Courage" in Fight Against Cancer: An Brief Review.

Persistent serpentine supra-venous hyperpigmentation (PSSH) describes a hyperpigmentation of the skin overlying peripheral veins with characteristic of underlying vessels that are patent. It has been described most commonly after injection of chemotherapeutic drugs. We describe a 44 year old man with diagnosed case of Ca stomach on FOLFOX based chemotherapy.

Co-relation of SARS-CoV-2 related 30-d mortality with HRCT score and RT-PCR Ct value-based viral load in patients with solid malignancy.

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients with malignancy are published worldwide but are lacking in data from India.

Aim: To characterize COVID-19 related mortality outcomes within 30 d of diagnosis with HRCT score and RT-PCR Ct value-based viral load in various solid malignancies.

Methods: Patients included in this study were with an active or previous malignancy and with confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection from the institute database.
