This study found that sorafenib was active against desmoid tumors, with 25% of patients achieving a partial response and 70% maintaining stable disease.

This review discusses previously reported cases of drug-associated hidradenitis suppurativa linked to various immunomodulating medications but reports no new clinical results.

This study reports that 71% of patients treated with the gamma-secretase inhibitor PF-03084014 for desmoid tumors experienced dermatologic side effects, such as follicular lesions and pruritic eruptions, which were managed with topical or systemic treatments.

In this case report, a nine-year-old boy with an unusual scalp nodule was found to have trichofolliculoma, a rare skin tumor, emphasizing the importance of considering this diagnosis in children and using dermoscopy and histopathology for accurate identification and treatment.

This case report details a rare large epidermal cyst over the sacrumcoccygeal region in an elderly patient, which was successfully removed surgically.

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 study found that human skin expresses proenkephalin, whose expression is upregulated by environmental stress and varies in pathological conditions, increasing in psoriasis and decreasing in melanocytic tumors.

This study found that androgen receptor inactivation in male and female mice reduced susceptibility to DMBA-induced skin cancer, but the effect varied by the carcinogenesis model.

This review discusses recent findings on molecular changes in cutaneous adnexal tumours and reports novel markers and pathways involved, highlighting the diverse oncogenic drivers and tumour suppressor alterations.

This chapter classifies various benign skin tumors and discusses their characteristics, treatment indications, and potential for recurrence, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that among patients with sex cord stromal ovarian tumors, 11% exhibited signs of virilization, requiring thorough clinical evaluation to rule out non-neoplastic causes.

This case study reports a near-complete response of a proliferating trichilemmal tumor to neoadjuvant radiotherapy in a 79-year-old woman, highlighting radiotherapy's role in managing this condition when patients are unsuitable for surgery.

This case report described a facial hairline tumor initially diagnosed as a sebaceous cyst but ultimately confirmed as a rare Proliferating Pilar Tumor with focal malignancies upon histopathological examination.

This study found that Polyomavirus A2 infection in mice led to the development of pilomatricomas in hair follicles, with the virus replicating initially in the skin and later infecting matrix cells.

This article discusses various aspects of hair loss but reports no new research findings.

This study found that cutaneous cysts most frequently appeared as epidermal cysts, with unusual locations posing diagnostic challenges that required histopathological analysis for definitive diagnosis.

This review outlines the clinical and histopathological features that aid in classifying tumors arising from the folliculosebaceous apparatus and reports no new research results.

This review discusses the definition of polycystic ovary syndrome proposed by the AE-PCOS Society Task Force, emphasizing hyperandrogenism, ovarian dysfunction, and excluding related disorders, while noting potential variations needing more research.

This classification proposal introduces a novel system for categorizing cutaneous adnexal cysts based on their origin in the folliculosebaceous unit and sweat glands, aiming to simplify and enhance understanding of these skin lesions.

This case report describes a 15-year-old girl with severe hyperandrogenaemia linked to both an ovarian androgen-secreting tumor and HAIR-AN syndrome, highlighting the complexity of diagnosing polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This report discusses a case of pilomatrixoma, an uncommon benign skin tumor, and emphasizes the importance of histopathological analysis for accurate diagnosis to avoid misdiagnosis as malignancy.
