Cystic basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a rare subtype of BCC (1). Histologically, it is usually characterized by multiple small cysts without a clinical cystic appearance (2). Herein, we report an unusual case of cystic BCC with a large vulvar cyst.

Trichogerminoma (TG) is a rare, benign, cutaneous adnexal tumor originating from the hair germ epithelium. It typically presents as an asymptomatic, slowly enlarging nodule predominantly on the head, face, or trunk. Despite its benign nature, precise diagnosis is crucial because of its potential to become malignant.

Mycosis fungoides (MF) is characterized by a clonal proliferation of skin-homing mature T cells with special predilection for involving the epidermis. Folliculotropic and syringotropic MF typically present with erythematous papules, patches, and plaques, with punctate accentuation that is folliculocentric in the former. We report a 67-year-old woman, with an extensive history of allergic contact dermatitis, who was referred to the Mohs surgery clinic with a large pink plaque extending from the nasal bridge to the right upper medial cheek concerning for basal cell carcinoma.

Article Synopsis
  • - Naevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome (NBCCS) is a rare genetic condition caused by mutations in the Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) pathway, leading to early development of multiple basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) and related skin tumors like basaloid follicular hamartoma (BFH).
  • - A study analyzed 140 skin tumors from NBCCS patients and 140 control BCC tumors to compare their morphological characteristics, finding that BFH was exclusively present in NBCCS patients and had distinct histopathological features.
  • - The research indicates that BFH could represent precursors to BCC, as it was identified in up to 24% of the tumors in NBCCS patients, with possible

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the range of skin conditions in patients with germline SUFU pathogenic variants (PVs), focusing on their clinical and histopathologic features.* -
  • Conducted across U.S. dermatology and genetics clinics over eight years, the study analyzed skin biopsy samples from five female patients aged 31-68, identifying several types of skin tumors.* -
  • Findings reveal that alongside typical basal cell carcinomas, these patients exhibit various indolent skin lesions, indicating a broader range of cutaneous manifestations associated with SUFU PVs.*
