Concurrent Eruptive Melanocytic Nevi and Multiple Keratoacanthomas Induced by Encorafenib.
Cureus
September 2024
Oncology, Biokliniki Athinon, Athens, GRC.
Article Synopsis
- - A case study discusses a 64-year-old male with metastatic colorectal cancer who developed severe itching and new skin lesions after treatment with encorafenib and panitumumab, medications targeting cancer pathways.
- - The patient showed a mix of skin lesions, including benign moles and keratoacanthomas, with further evaluation confirming a link between the skin reactions and the use of encorafenib, as validated by the Naranjo scale.
- - Stopping the medications led to significant improvement in skin lesions, highlighting the importance of ongoing skin assessments for patients on BRAF inhibitors to manage side effects effectively.
Keratoacanthoma versus Squamous-Cell Carcinoma: Histopathological Features and Molecular Markers.
Dermatopathology (Basel)
October 2024
Arkadi M. Rywlin M.D. Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Mount Sinai Medical Center, Miami Beach, FL 33140, USA.
Article Synopsis
- There is significant debate in dermatopathology about how to distinguish keratoacanthoma (KA), a benign tumor, from squamous-cell carcinoma (SCC), which is dangerous and requires treatment.
- Some experts argue KAs are self-limiting and don't need intervention, while others stress the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of SCC to prevent severe outcomes.
- Ongoing research is exploring genetic and molecular differences to improve understanding and diagnostic techniques for both conditions.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of Demodex mites in the development of eyelid papillomas, focusing on how their presence may influence the tumor's histomorphological characteristics.
- Histomorphological examinations revealed demodectic infection indicators, such as cystic formations and remnants of the mite, in nearly half of the analyzed cases, found within tumor tissues and surrounding structures.
- The findings suggest that these cavity defects created by mite activity may serve as indicators of Demodex infestation, with implications for understanding their impact on various eyelid tumors, including keratoacanthomas and senile keratosis.
Clinical and Dermoscopic Patterns of Basal Cell Carcinoma and Its Mimickers in Skin of Color: A Practical Summary.
Medicina (Kaunas)
August 2024
Institute of Dermatology, Department of Medical Area, University of Udine, 33100 Udine, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Diagnosing basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in individuals with darker skin tones (dark phototypes IV-VI) is difficult due to varied presentations and fewer identifiable clues; dermoscopy can aid in identifying BCC in these patients.
- This review provides a comparison of BCC's clinical and dermoscopic patterns in people of color to those in lighter-skinned individuals, identifying common mimickers like squamous cell carcinoma and melanoma.
- Key dermoscopic features of BCC in darker skin include blue, black, and gray dots, with arborizing vessels being the primary indicator, while unique conditions in darker skin such as dermatosis papulosa nigra are also considered in differential diagnosis.
