This study investigated pilomatrixoma, a benign skin tumor, and found that irregular expression of β-catenin and Lef-1 in transitional cells may contribute to amorphous debris and cyst formation.

This study found that keratin 15 expressing cells from the hair follicle contribute to the development and long-term persistence of cutaneous papillomas in transgenic mice, with a subset showing the Ha-ras mutation.

This article reviews the potential relationship between serum amyloid A and hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting genetic influences, but reports no new clinical findings.

This clinical image report discusses a 50-year-old male with ethanol-related chronic liver disease who, despite showing signs of Dupuytren Disease, was asymptomatic and therefore did not receive treatment.

Two cases of a rare skin condition were successfully treated with laser therapy, offering a non-surgical treatment option.

This case report describes a female patient with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed generalized hair-follicle hamartoma, marking the fourth documented association between the two conditions.

This case report describes a 68-year-old woman with benign mucous membrane pemphigoid and unusual keratotic plaques on her extremities, associated with longstanding mouth and eye symptoms and phalangeal swelling.

This case report describes an adolescent girl with polycystic ovarian syndrome and endogenously elevated androgen levels who developed a hepatic adenoma, suggesting a link between the two conditions.

This case study reports on a rare benign skin tumor known as Pilomatricoma in the lower left orbital region of a 32-year-old male, highlighting its characteristic histopathological features and emphasizing the importance of surgical excision for successful treatment and minimal recurrence risk.

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 study found that postmenopausal women with a history of hirsutism and/or oligo-amenorrhea have a higher prevalence of several comorbidities, including heart and respiratory diseases, than those without these reproductive history markers.

In this study of premenopausal Iranian women with hirsutism, polycystic ovary syndrome was a common cause and frequently associated with menstrual irregularity, while elevated androgens or hyperandrogenic conditions were also observed.

In this case report, a 34-year-old with a slowly growing mass near the right parotid gland was diagnosed with pilomatrixoma, a rare benign hair follicle tumor, which was only confirmed pathologically after surgical excision.

This article describes a case of pilomatricoma in a 22-year-old male with successful surgical excision and no recurrence, highlighting its histopathological features and typical clinical presentation.

In this study, researchers identified novel LMNA mutations in patients with atypical progeroid syndrome, revealing clinical features distinct from other similar disorders, but unrelated to mutant prelamin A accumulation.

This study found that scanning electron microscopy revealed considerable abnormalities in hair morphology in MPS I, II, IIIA, and IIIB patients, potentially related to heparan sulfate accumulation.

This case report describes a 60-year-old woman with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome whose symptoms and polyposis improved following prednisolone therapy, but emphasizes the need for periodic digestive tract screening due to associated cancer risks.

This case report describes an unusual nail tumor termed "onycholemmal horn" in a 77-year-old woman, highlighting its distinct histopathological features and the importance of excisional biopsy for accurate diagnosis.

This case report describes a patient with SLE and APLS who developed basaloid follicular hamartomas, which persisted despite aggressive treatment for SLE, although hair regrowth occurred.

This study suggests that pilomatrixomas' maturation towards areas of shadow cells is linked to a gradual loss of differentiation-specific hair keratins, supporting a hair matrix origin for the tumor.

HPV 60 may cause cysts and warts on the face, not just hands and feet.

This case report discusses a patient with VHL-associated paraganglioma, highlighting the importance of genetic testing and monitoring in those with VHL disease, due to high mutation penetrance and associated risks.

This case study describes two postmenopausal women with severe androgen excess symptoms, diagnosed with ovarian hyperthecosis and stromal hyperplasia, emphasizing the challenges in differentiating these benign conditions from androgen-secreting tumors and the importance of surgical and histopathological evaluation for correct diagnosis and management.

Poliosis is common in severe alopecia areata but doesn't significantly affect overall prognosis.

This article reviews the characteristics and diagnostic criteria of tricholemmoma and tricholemmal carcinoma, detailing their clinical presentations and associations but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests revising PCOS diagnostic criteria to integrate the polymenorrhoea subcategory due to shared metabolic dysfunctions with oligomenorrhoea.

This report describes a case study of a 23-year-old female exhibiting multiple trichodiscomas, a type of benign tumor of the hair follicular discs common in familial cases and potentially linked to Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome, though genetic testing was not performed due to financial constraints.
