Basal cell carcinoma with halo phenomenon in a young female: Significance of dermatoscopy in early diagnosis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dermatology, 2015
Halo phenomenon of nevus may be observed as a circular reaction, although it is unusual around tumors. A 29-year-old woman presented with a pigmented lesion on the cheek since three years.

Giant congenital melanocytic nevus with neurotized lesions mimicking neurofibromas – A rare presentation

open access: yesIndian Journal of Paediatric Dermatology, 2020
Giant congenital melanocytic nevus (GCMN) is a deeply pigmented lesion, often associated with hypertrichosis and multiple scattered satellite lesions. During infancy apart from textural changes, rapidly growing “proliferative nodules” mimicking melanoma ...

Balloon cell melanoma: a case report with polarized and non-polarized dermatoscopy and dermatopathology

open access: yesDermatology Practical & Conceptual, 2014
Balloon cell melanoma is a rare melanoma subtype, with only one previous case with dermatoscopy published. It is often non-pigmented, leading to diagnostic difficulty, and there is a tendency for lesions to be thick at diagnosis.

Woolly Hair Nevus Associated with Sebaceous Nevus and Linear Pigmentation

open access: yesIndian Journal of Paediatric Dermatology, 2023
Abstract The term woolly hair nevus was first described and coined in 1927 by Fred Wise. It is a nevoid condition characterized by a circumscribed patch of unruly and curled hair with an altered texture and may be associated with other nevoid conditions.

Dynamics of nevus development implicate cell cooperation in the growth arrest of transformed melanocytes

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Mutational activation of the BRAF proto-oncogene in melanocytes reliably produces benign nevi (pigmented “moles”), yet the same change is the most common driver mutation in melanoma.

High‐ and Ultra‐High‐Frequency Ultrasound Identifies a Subclinical Link Between Suppurative Comedonal Nevus and Hidradenitis Suppurativa

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Suppurative nevus comedonicus (SNC) is a variant of nevus comedonicus in which the characteristic features coexist with recurrent inflammatory lesions that clinically resemble those of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). We present the ultrasound characteristics of this entity and emphasize the value of high‐resolution dermatologic ultrasound both as a ...

Giant congenital melanocytic nevus with neurofibroma-like lesions and onset of vitiligo

open access: yesJournal of Dermatology and Dermatologic Surgery, 2015
Giant congenital pigmented nevus and neurofibromatosis type 1 may rarely occur together. We reported here an unusual case where giant congenital melanocytic nevus was associated with neurofibroma-like lesions and vitiligo, emphasizing the clinical and ...

Performance of a Deep Learning Algorithm for Melanoma Classification Across Diverse Dermoscopic and Tele‐Dermatology Datasets

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Early detection of melanoma significantly boosts patient survival rates. Deep learning has demonstrated dermatologist‐level accuracy in assessing pigmented skin lesions by analysing images at the pixel level. However, these neural networks may face challenges with ‘real‐life’ images due to limited training data and image artefacts ...

The usefulness of c-Kit in the immunohistochemical assessment of melanocytic lesions

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2011
C-Kit (CD117), the receptor for the stem cell factor, a growth factor for melanocyte migration and proliferation, has shown differential immunostaining in various benign and malignant melanocytic lesions.
