- In three cases of granuloma faciale, distinct dermoscopic patterns were observed, such as elongated linear vessels and orange areas.
- Accurate diagnosis is crucial as flat-type granuloma faciale can be easily confused with basal cell carcinoma and cutaneous sarcoidosis, requiring histological confirmation before treatment.
Background: Cutaneous adverse events (CAEs) related to oncological therapies are a common scenario in daily clinical practice.
Methods: This is a retrospective observational study collecting the data regarding CAEs of patients treated with immune checkpoints inhibitors (ICIs) in four different Italian centers.
Results: Of 323 patients included, 305 were evaluable for this analysis; 182 patients (59.
