Epithelioid Cell Histiocytoma – An Unusual Variant of Dermatofibroma at an Uncommon Site [PDF]

, 2011
Epithelioid cell histiocytoma (ECH) is a rare variant of cutaneous fibrous histiocytoma involving primarily trunk and the extremities. It can delude the pathologist in considering other benign non neoplastic and neoplastic lesions.

Detection of circulating tumor cells is achieved by flow cytometry in melanoma patients

Cytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Melanoma is an aggressive skin tumor whose incidence is rising sharply, and for which the determination of new prognostic factors is a major challenge. In oncology, circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are at the heart of much research, as they represent a source of tumor material obtained non‐invasively by liquid biopsy.

Frequent somatic mutations of GNAQ in uveal melanoma and blue naevi. [PDF]

, 2009
BRAF and NRAS are common targets for somatic mutations in benign and malignant neoplasms that arise from melanocytes situated in epithelial structures, and lead to constitutive activation of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway.

Safety and efficacy of vismodegib in patients aged ≥65 years with advanced basal cell carcinoma. [PDF]

, 2016
Because many patients with unresectable basal cell carcinoma (BCC) are aged ≥65 years, this study explores the efficacy and safety of vismodegib in these patients with locally advanced (la) or metastatic (m) basal cell carcinoma (BCC) in the ERIVANCE BCC

Topical imiquimod and in situ vulvar melanoma: A promising therapy?

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Vulvar melanoma is a rare type of cancer that affects mainly postmenopausal women. There are no established protocols for the treatment of vulvar melanoma. From data extrapolated from the literature on cutaneous melanoma, surgical excision remains the best option for the resectable disease.

A Rare Confusing Nevus Variant: Meyerson Nevus

Bezmialem Science, 2018
Meyerson nevus is a rare benign entity described by Meyerson et al in 1971 as a melanocytic nevus surrounded by inflammatory, eczematous eruption that resolves spontaneously or by topical steriod therapy (fluticasone propionate, Abdi İbrahim İlaç San. ve Tic. A.Ş., İstanbul), but the nevus persists.

MUC1 positive cutaneous metastasis with transepidermal elimination from a breast carcinoma [PDF]

, 2013
Breast cancer is the most common cause of cutaneous metastases from internal malignancies. Generally, the neoplastic cells are located in the dermis or hypodermis, while a finding of transepidermal elimination on cutaneous metastases is exceptional.

FIGO guideline on liver disease and pregnancy

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract The number of women entering pregnancy with chronic liver disease is rising. Gestational liver disorders affect 3% of the pregnant population. Both can be associated with significant maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. European guidance has recently been published to inform management.

The HAM10000 dataset, a large collection of multi-source dermatoscopic images of common pigmented skin lesions

, 2018
Training of neural networks for automated diagnosis of pigmented skin lesions is hampered by the small size and lack of diversity of available datasets of dermatoscopic images. We tackle this problem by releasing the HAM10000 ("Human Against Machine with

microRNA-33a-5p increases radiosensitivity by inhibiting glycolysis in melanoma. [PDF]

, 2017
Glycolysis was reported to have a positive correlation with radioresistance. Our previous study found that the miR-33a functioned as a tumor suppressor in malignant melanoma by targeting hypoxia-inducible factor1-alpha (HIF-1α), a gene known to promote ...
