Skin Cancer Predisposition Genes, Full‐Body Skin Examinations, Familial Disclosure, and Genetic Testing Among High‐Risk Individuals

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There is a lack of knowledge in full‐body skin examinations (FBSEs) in the context of pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants (PV/LPV) in skin cancer predisposition genes (CPGs). This study assessed the association between carrier status of PV/LPV in skin CPGs and FBSEs and described the patterns of family letter receipt, familial ...

Immunoglobulins to mitigate paraneoplastic Lambert Eaton Myasthenic Syndrome under checkpoint inhibition in Merkel cell carcinoma

open access: yesNeurological Research and Practice, 2020
