research Role of Observation for Excisionally Biopsied Moderately Dysplastic Nevi with Positive Histologic Margins and Risk of Future Melanoma Development
Watching, not removing, skin growths with moderate atypia and positive edges is okay; patients may get melanoma elsewhere, especially if they've had it before.
research Skin Self-Photography for Dysplastic Nevus Monitoring Is Associated with a Decrease in the Number of Biopsies at Follow-Up: A Retrospective Analytical Study
Taking photos of your own skin can lead to fewer skin biopsies for mole monitoring.
research Cutaneous Features of Myotonic Dystrophy Types 1 and 2: Implications of Premature Aging and Vitamin D Homeostasis
Patients with myotonic dystrophy often have skin problems that suggest early aging and vitamin D issues, and the severity of these problems is linked to their genetic condition and vitamin D levels.
