This case study highlights that breast cancer may present as alopecia refractory to usual treatments, indicating the need for consideration of underlying malignancy in such cases.

This case report describes a woman with hypertension, alopecia, and other symptoms, revealing that her condition was due to ovarian hyperthecosis, highlighting the overlap of adrenal and ovarian disorders.

This article is a self-assessment by Rosa Angela Ragni and Kenneth Smith, reporting no new results.

This study found that the S100A4/NMIIA axis contributes to glioblastoma progression by recruiting and promoting migration of GBM cells along blood vessels, correlating with worse patient outcomes.

This case report describes a 65-year-old man diagnosed with atraumatic splenic rupture, which is rare and can occur without trauma, following sudden-onset left-sided abdominal pain.

Surgery for high-risk prostate cancer is challenging but doesn't lead to more complications, and additional treatment is often needed.

This study reports that adding androgen deprivation therapy to salvage radiation therapy for patients with non-metastatic biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy improves progression-free survival, particularly in those with higher post-prostatectomy PSA levels.

This study describes the case of a Filipino woman with virilisation, where a rare ovarian Leydig cell tumour was identified and removed, normalizing her testosterone levels.

This case report describes a patient with sarcoidosis who experienced severe symptomatic hypercalcemia, scarring alopecia, and acute-on-chronic kidney failure.

This case report describes a 41-year-old woman with alopecia mucinosa presenting multiple enlarging facial plaques, indicating a potentially non-benign course despite prior classifications.

This case report describes a middle-aged woman whose scalp condition, cutis verticis gyrata, was an early sign of systemic amyloidosis that went undiagnosed until after she experienced a stroke.

This study found that Finnish men using 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors before or after bladder cancer diagnosis had improved disease-specific survival compared to non-users, suggesting potential benefits of the treatment.

This study found that anti-angiogenic drugs did not significantly affect COVID-19 severity, ICU admission, or mortality in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

This report describes the successful use of sonidegib in treating two cases of locally advanced basal cell carcinoma, leading to remission in both instances, and reducing lesions in a patient with Gorlin syndrome, while noting mild side effects consistent with the drug's known profile.

This case report describes a 32-year-old man who developed SCC of the common bile duct a year after receiving treatment for a malignant proliferating trichilemmal tumour on the scalp.

This case series found that paclitaxel and nab-paclitaxel may be safe and effective chemotherapy options for hemodialysis patients with unresectable advanced or recurrent gastric cancer.

This meta-analysis reported that dietary intake of omega-3 or omega-6 fatty acids does not significantly impact prostate cancer risk.

The study reported that vismodegib showed significant effectiveness in treating basal cell carcinoma, particularly in patients with Gorlin-Goltz syndrome or locally advanced BCC, but also highlighted substantial side effects, requiring careful management to prevent treatment resistance and maintain remission.

This review highlights the importance of recognizing neoplastic alopecia as a potential indicator of underlying metastatic neoplasia, as it may be mistaken for other scalp conditions like alopecia areata.

This case report describes a 42-year-old male with alopecia areata and a scalp neurofibroma, emphasizing the tumor's histopathological features and the patient's decision against surgical treatment.

This case report describes a patient with an ovarian steroid cell tumor that initially presented as non-classical adrenal hyperplasia, emphasizing the difficulty in differential diagnosis with hyperandrogenism and the importance of close clinical monitoring.

This case report describes a patient developing hidradenitis suppurativa-like lesions after undergoing gamma secretase complex inhibitor therapy for desmoid tumours, illustrating potential skin toxicity linked to the treatment.

This clinical case study reports on a postmenopausal woman experiencing hair loss and virilization symptoms, which were ultimately attributed to rare ovarian tumors identified after a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, despite normal imaging results.

Recognizing specific scalp patterns can help diagnose hair loss linked to breast cancer spread.

This case report highlights that in postmenopausal women with severe hyperandrogenism, thorough adrenal and pelvic evaluations, hormonal profiling, and permanent pathology are essential for accurate diagnosis and management of androgen-secreting tumors, such as AGCTs, to prevent misdiagnosis and ensure effective treatment.
