Clinical case is about squamous cell carcinoma in region of face and head. Patient was diagnosed with 6-7 cm tumor in region of temple in the left side of the face. Patient took his first medical advice after 8 years then he felt first symptoms. After full examination of a patient there was decided to eradicate the tumor radically and reconstruct the defect primarily with skin graft. In a three months after the operation good esthetic effect is visible. Patient was send to a local doctor for a regular observation because of possible recurrence. No data of recurrence, during two years of regular observation, was given.

The incidence of keratinocyte carcinoma (KC) is rising globally, significantly burdening healthcare resources. Treatment options include medical treatment, non-invasive procedures, and surgery, each associated with their distinct benefits and risks. With advanced treatment, the procedures become increasingly invasive for the patients and expensive for the society.

Surgical Outcomes for Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer of the Head and Neck.

Ann Plast Surg

January 2025

Department of Plastic Surgery, First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University, Kunming City, Yunnan Province, China.

Objectives: There is no consensus on elective lymphatic dissection of the parotid and neck for nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) due to challenges in detecting occult spread to these regions. This study aimed to summarize clinical data and evaluate correlations between risk factors, nodular metastasis, and the need for elective parotidectomy in patients with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), and apocrine carcinoma (AC) of the head and neck, all with clear surgical margins and negative imaging results for regional metastases.

Study Design: We retrospectively reviewed 166 patients with CSCC, one with MCC, and one with AC of the head and neck, all treated surgically between September 2006 and July 2022.

Background: Rates of recurrence, metastases, and mortality for squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the upper limb have not been clearly defined.

Objective: We aimed to characterize these tumors and assess the long-term outcomes, comparing with current literature.

Methods And Materials: A retrospective review was performed on 100 consecutive primary cutaneous upper limb SCCs managed surgically by a single hand surgeon between 2012 and 2019.

Lineage tracing studies suggest that the placenta is not a de novo source of hematopoietic stem cells.

Definitive hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) arise from a small number of hemogenic endothelial cells (HECs) within the developing embryo. Understanding the origin and ontogeny of HSPCs is of considerable interest and potential therapeutic value. It has been proposed that the murine placenta contains HECs that differentiate into HSPCs.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-1 (SARS-CoV-1) and -2 (SARS-CoV-2) are beta-coronaviruses (β-CoVs) that have caused significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Therefore, a better understanding of host responses to β-CoVs would provide insights into the pathogenesis of these viruses to identify potential targets for medical countermeasures. In this study, our objective is to use a systems biology approach to explore the magnitude and scope of innate immune responses triggered by SARS-CoV-1 and -2 infection over time in pathologically relevant human lung epithelial cells (Calu-3/2B4 cells).
