Dermatology, Datta Meghe Medical College, Nagpur, IND.
Nevus lipomatosus cutaneous superficialis (NLCS) is a rare dermatological condition characterized by ectopic mature adipocytes in the dermis. The classic variety presents multiple clustered skin-colored nodules, while the solitary form is a single papule or nodule. We report the case of a 25-year-old female who presented with multiple cerebriform nodules coalescing into a large plaque over the left iliac region that developed over 17 months.

Article Synopsis
- Non-neoplastic hypercortisolaemia, or pseudo-Cushing's syndrome (PCS), can occur due to various health conditions like depression, obesity, and diabetes, linked to overactivity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
- A 66-year-old woman exhibited symptoms such as weakness, weight loss, and poorly controlled hypertension, which led to the discovery of pheochromocytoma, a tumor that causes hormone overproduction, upon further testing.
- After undergoing surgery to remove the tumor and receiving supportive treatment, her symptoms improved significantly, confirming the diagnosis of PCS rather than traditional Cushing's syndrome.

Background: Although rare, melanoma confined to the dermis or subcutaneous tissue without evidence of a primary cutaneous site should provoke consideration of melanoma of unknown primary. This diagnosis carries a favorable prognosis when compared with cutaneous metastatic melanoma. Several hypotheses have been proposed for how melanoma of unknown primary develops, two of which were considered in our patient case: (1) spontaneous regression of the primary tumor following metastasis or (2) the traumatic implantation of ectopic melanocytic cells in other tissues, such as the subcutaneous tissue.
