Better diagnostic tools and treatment guidelines are needed for segmental vitiligo and related pigment issues.
research Lasers in Treatment of Pseudofolliculitis Barbae
Lasers can effectively treat pseudofolliculitis barbae, but insurance often doesn't cover it, possibly due to racial bias.
research Graft Survival and Cell Culture Medium
The cell culture medium "RPMI" might slightly improve hair graft survival, but not by a significant amount.
research Water Temperature Changes
Using an ultrasonic liposuction machine with different cannula sizes and power settings does not change water temperature.
research Response to Dr. Korc’s Letter on Mohs Surgery
Dr. Zitelli emphasized that "Mohs surgery" should only be called that when one doctor does both the surgery and pathology.
research Lectin‐binding profiles for normal skin appendages and their tumors
Skin tumors and normal skin structures have different lectin-binding patterns.
research 512 Varicella-zoster virus in actively spreading segmental vitiligo skin
The study suggests a link between varicella-zoster virus and segmental vitiligo, with evidence of the virus disrupting skin pigment cells.

research 1379 Cell of origin contributes to the melanoma diversity
Different types of stem cells in the skin contribute to the variety of melanoma forms.
research Primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis presenting as pigmented papules over pinna
Pigmented papules on the ear can be a rare skin condition called cutaneous amyloidosis, treatable with topical tretinoin.
research Dermoscopy of pilomatricoma: A case report with a review of the literature
Dermoscopy helps doctors recognize a type of benign skin tumor called pilomatricoma.
research Identification of the cell lineage at the origin of basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research Atypical necrobiosis lipoidica of the face
A 36-year-old man had unusual skin lesions on his face without hair loss.
research Basal Cell Carcinoma Arising at the Site of a Lip Piercing
research Inverted follicular keratosis of the ear lobe masquerading as malignancy
Inverted follicular keratosis can look like cancer but is actually a harmless tumor.
research Dermal Adnexal Neoplasms: Exploring Rare Variants and Their Clinical Behavior
This study investigated 42 cases of skin adnexal tumors (SATs) at a tertiary care hospital, focusing on their clinicopathological features, anatomical distribution, and differentiation lineage. The most common tumors were follicular (42.9%), followed by sweat gland (40.5%) and sebaceous tumors (11.9%). Pilomatricoma was identified as the most frequent benign lesion, comprising 33.3% of cases. Rare malignant tumors included adenoid cystic carcinoma, eccrine mucinous carcinoma, and high-grade malignant trichilemmal tumor, with malignancies representing 7.1% of the cases. Histopathology was emphasized as essential for accurate diagnosis and prognosis due to the clinical similarities of SATs to other skin lesions.
