Burn wound healing often shows a certain degree of pigmentation disorder. It may not only cause cosmetic and psychological issues affecting patient's normal social activities, but also increase risk of skin cancer or photoaging. Although normal skin pigmentation is fairly well studied, the mechanism that leads to dyspigmentation after burn injury needs to be further explored. Based on summarizing the mechanism of normal skin pigmentation, this paper reviews the latest research progress in postburn dyspigmentation in recent years.

Background And Purpose: The normal tissue sparing afforded by FLASH radiotherapy is being intensely investigated for potential clinical translation. Here, we studied the effects of FLASH proton radiotherapy (F-PRT) in the reirradiation setting, with or without hypofractionation. Chronic toxicities in three murine models of normal tissue toxicity including the intestine, skin, and bone were investigated.

Concealed penis (CP), also known as hidden or buried penis, is an external genital deformity in which a normal-sized penis is covered by skin, subcutaneous tissue or fat tissue in the prepubic area, leading to abnormal exposure. This condition has significant morbidity and a negative effect on certain aspects of the patient's quality of life, including but not limited to hygiene, micturition, self-image and sexual function. Current classification systems for CP are heterogeneous, but most of these further classify CP based on their division into congenital concealed penis (CCP) and adult-acquired buried penis (AABP).
