INDIVIDUAL ARTICLE: Real-World Cases of Clascoterone Topical Treatment for Acne and Related Disorders.

Acne vulgaris affects approximately 80% of young adults and adolescents in the world. Acne presents as comedones, pustules, papules, and nodules on the face, chest, shoulders, or back. It can lead to a significant decrease in quality of life with a high risk of associated depression and anxiety.

Economics of emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy at an Australian tertiary centre in the post COVID-19 era.

Background: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is a common operation performed worldwide. Indications include acute cholecystitis (AC), with a trend of increasing complexity post-COVID-19. We aim to evaluate the health expenditure on LC at an Australian tertiary centre.

Adult intestinal malrotation presenting as caecal volvulus with incidental findings of duplicate inferior vena cava and other rare abnormalities: case report.

Intestinal malrotation and duplication of the inferior vena cava are rarely diagnosed in adult patients; however, incidence is likely underestimated as they are usually asymptomatic. These congenital malformations have been previously reported in the same patient twice but never with colonic obstruction or ischaemia. A 25-year-old female presented with nausea, vomiting, obstipation, and abdominal pain, and on computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis was diagnosed with a caecal volvulus and pneumatosis coli associated with intestinal malrotation requiring emergency right hemicolectomy.

Breast hibernoma in a male patient: a rare case report and review of the literature.

Hibernomas are uncommon, benign, lipomatous tumours of brown fat. Although hibernomas may arise from any region where brown fat exists, common locations include thigh, shoulder, back and neck. We report a rare finding of a breast hibernoma in a 43-year-old male.

What Is the Risk of Harm Associated With Topical Calcineurin Inhibitors?

The topical calcineurin inhibitors (TCIs), tacrolimus (Protopic) and pimecrolimus (Elidel), were approved in the early 2000s and were widely used as a nonsteroid treatment for atopic dermatitis (AD) in adult and pediatric populations. In 2005, the addition of a boxed warning was mandated for TCIs based on a potential risk of malignancy, and there was subsequently a substantial decline in their use. Since then, evidence has mounted to support the safety of this class of medications and suggests that the increased risk of malignancy remains theoretical.

Comparison of topical antiaging creams in the management of lateral canthal lines.

Objective: This study compared an antiaging treatment with two currently marketed cosmetic antiaging products for the treatment of lateral canthal lines ("crow's feet").

Methods: Healthy female volunteers (72) aged of 54.6 years (mean) having fine-to-moderate wrinkles in the lateral canthal areas were randomized to one of three treatments applied daily over 28 days: Group A (Purgenesis™ Day Cream, Purgenesis™ Eye Cream, and Purgenesis™ Night Cream); Group B (Prevage Eye Lotion, Prevage Day Cream, and Prevage Night Cream); or Group C (La Mer Eye Balm, Crème de La Mer , and La Mer Night Cream).

Clinical Insights About Onychomycosis and Its Treatment: A Consensus.

Background: Recently, experience and knowledge have been gained using effective topical treatment for onychomycosis, a difficult-to-treat infection.

Methods: This project aims to help understand and improve patient-focused quality of care for fungal nail infections. A panel of dermatologists who treat onychomycosis convened on several occasions to review and discuss recent learnings in the treatment of onychomycosis.
