This article reviews the potential of inhalation therapy to restore pulmonary elastin fibers in COPD patients and highlights the need for studies to test its feasibility; it reports no new research findings.

This article describes a case of late-onset focal dermal elastosis in a 73-year-old woman, characterized by flat pale yellow lesions and increased normal elastic fibers, distinct from pseudoxanthoma elasticum.

This review examines the clinicopathologic features of perifollicular elastolysis and indicates that, while its presentation is consistent, there is a lack of high-certainty evidence for effective treatments.

In this study, UVB irradiation increased mast cell degranulation only when skin was innervated, suggesting that the interaction between mast cells and nerve fibres may exacerbate solar elastosis by promoting dysfunctional dermal elastic fiber accumulation, but further research is needed for confirmation.

This case study reports a female adult patient with annular elastolytic giant cell granuloma on the scalp, observed through dermoscopy showing multiple yellowish/orange follicular dots against an erythemato-whitish background.
