Disseminated juvenile xanthogranulomas with ocular involvement: A case report and literature review.

Cutaneous juvenile xanthogranuloma is an uncommon disorder usually arising during infancy. Systemic involvement of juvenile xanthogranuloma remains rare, and there are no published guidelines to date on screening extracutaneous manifestations in these patients. Ocular involvement is the most common extracutaneous manifestation of juvenile xanthogranuloma.

Localized ulcerative nodular amyloidosis presenting as ulcerative panniculitis, an unusual clinical manifestation: A case report.

Introduction And Objectives: The main objective of this article is to present and discuss a case of localized ulcerative nodular amyloidosis with deep involvement clinically manifesting as ulcerative panniculitis and discuss its impact on the choice of treatment.

Methods And Results: We present a 73-year-old woman with a history of painful ulcerated nodules on the inferior limbs. Microscopy confirmed amyloid deposits deep in the dermis and subcutaneous fat.

Calciphylaxis in a Patient With Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma: Case Report and Literature Review.

Background: Calciphylaxis is a well-known entity in end-stage kidney disease and after renal transplant. Cases of nonuremic calciphylaxis (NUC) have also been reported, but data on this rare condition are mainly empirical.

Objective: We discuss a case of NUC secondary to spontaneous tumour lysis syndrome in a patient who had chemotherapy for non-Hodgkin lymphoma and present a review of the literature to better characterize malignancy-associated NUC.

A challenging case of squamous metaplasia in a pleomorphic adenoma: diagnostic and clinical pitfalls.

Squamous metaplasia in a pleomorphic adenoma (PA) has been reported, but rarely has it been documented as being extensive enough to cause significant misdiagnosis. We present a case of a 37-year-old man presenting with a 1.7-cm minor salivary gland PA of the palate.

Trichodysplasia spinulosa in a renal transplant patient.

Background: Trichodysplasia spinulosa (TS) is a rare skin affection seen in immunocompromised patients, mainly those with solid organ tranplants.

Objective: To report a case of a patient with classic clinical and pathologic findings for the disease so that physicians caring for this population are aware of the clinical presentation.

Method: We report the case of a female patient we saw at our clinic with a diagnosis of TS.

A classic clinical case: neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis.

Background: Neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis (NEH) is a rare condition described mostly in adult patients receiving chemotherapy for acute myelogenous leukemia. When it affects the facial region, it can mimic cellulitis and delay the diagnostic, thus proper recognition is essential.

Objective: This article describes a classic case of NEH.

Unusual presentation of a severe autosomal recessive anhydrotic ectodermal dysplasia with a novel mutation in the EDAR gene.

We report on an 18-year-old woman, born to first-cousin parents, presenting with a severe form of anhydrotic ectodermal dysplasia (EDA/HED). She had sparse hair, absent limb hair, absent sweating, episodes of hyperpyrexia, important hypodontia, and hyperconvex nails. She also showed unusual clinical manifestations such as an absence of breasts, a rudimentary extranumerary areola and nipple on the left side, and marked palmo-plantar hyperkeratosis.

Toxic effects of methyl methacrylate monomer on male genital tissues. In vitro study in rats.

Introduction: Methyl methacrylate (MMA), a widely used monomer in dentistry and medicine has been reported to cause abnormalities or lesions in several organs. Experimental and clinical studies have documented that monomers may cause a wide range of adverse health effects such as irritation to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes, allergic dermatitis, stomatitis, asthma, neuropathy, disturbances of the central nervous system, liver toxicity, and fertility disturbances.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine whether MMA mixed with water at four different concentrations is able to affect the histological structure of testicular tissues and seminal vesicle on male rats.
