Cutaneous adverse events to systemic antineoplastic therapies: a retrospective study in a public oncologic hospital.

Background: Mucocutaneous adverse events are common during anticancer treatment, with variable consequences for the patient and their therapeutic regimen.

Objective: To evaluate the most common adverse events, as well as the drugs associated with their appearance and the consequences for cancer treatment.

Methods: A retrospective study was carried out through the analysis of patients treated at the Clinical Dermatology Unit of a public oncologic hospital.

Epidemiological study of dysphonia in 4-12 year-old children.

Unlabelled: Children dysphonia studies have reported an incidence of 4.4 to 30.3%.

Reinkes' edema: immunoexpression study of fibronectin, laminin and collagen IV in 60 cases by immunohistochemical techniques.

Unlabelled: Reinke's edema is chronic laryngeal disease in which the superficial layer of the lamina propria is expanded by thick mucus, giving it a gelatin aspect. The disease is directly related to smoking and more frequent in women, who end up having a lower tone of voice. Its histological characteristics cannot always distinguish it from other benign lesions of the larynx for which additional histological techniques are necessary.

Vocal cysts: clinical, endoscopic, and surgical aspects.

Summary: Vocal cysts are benign laryngeal lesions, which affect children and adults. They can be classified as epidermic or mucous-retention cyst.

Objective: The objective was to study the clinical, endoscopic, and surgical aspects of vocal cysts.
