In this case report, a 57-year-old man with chronic myelogenous leukemia developed a large, rapidly growing giant keratoacanthoma, highlighting the diagnostic challenges it poses compared to cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, with surgical excision identified as the preferred treatment.

In a study of 147 patients with androgenic alopecia, those who received hair transplantation combined with platelet-rich plasma injections experienced better hair regrowth and smaller areas of hair loss compared to those who only had hair transplantation.

This study identified a new lignan and 21 known compounds from Asiasarum heterotropoides roots, with two compounds showing potential anticancer activity by influencing NO production, FOXP3 expression, and HIF-1α activity in vitro.

This report describes a unique anatomical case featuring a detailed formation of a periaortic venous ring in an organic sample.

A boy with a rare birthmark called verrucous hemangioma needed careful timing for surgery due to its size and depth.

In this case report, the researchers observed scalp alopecia due to metastasis of breast cancer in a woman in her sixties, highlighting that scalp metastases can result in patchy hair loss and, although often accompanied by poor prognosis, can sometimes show comparatively better outcomes.

This clinical case study describes an aggressive squamous cell carcinoma developing within a giant epidermal cyst on the abdomen.

In a mouse model, this study found that LAM/TSC cells invaded the uterus and increased angiogenesis, while anti-EGFR antibody and rapamycin effectively reduced cell presence and blood vessel proliferation.

The authors reported that a combination of amino acid and stem cell therapy may have extended survival in a dog with hepatocutaneous syndrome to 32 months post-diagnosis.

This case report highlighted rapid virilization in a woman with adrenocortical carcinoma, stressing the importance of androgen evaluation to suspect underlying ovarian or adrenal tumors.

This study found that therapeutic isolated limb perfusion with melphalan for in-transit melanoma metastases resulted in a high response rate but was associated with some systemic toxicity, including nausea, vomiting, and transient bone marrow depression.

This study found that perifollicular mineralization in old toy poodle bitches was associated with high mineralization levels in other tissues.

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.

This study examined the clinicopathologic features of mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis testis in 14 patients, finding that the disease mostly presented as epithelioid type, with a propensity for high-grade tumors, and BAP1 and MTAP loss was uncommon.

In this study, sorafenib's common adverse events, like a hand-foot syndrome and diarrhea, were observed in distinct temporal and tissue distribution patterns, revealing new relationships among effects.

This case report describes a rare instance of renal cell carcinoma metastasizing to the ovary and early onset of alopecia after beginning sunitinib treatment, though hypothyroidism and dandruff complicate attribution to the drug.

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

This study reports that sorafenib-associated facial acneiform eruption, mimicking chloracne, is a rare cutaneous adverse event which improved upon reducing or discontinuing the drug.

This study found a rare germline mutation in the Birt–Hogg–Dubé gene in a Japanese patient with renal cell carcinoma, suggesting distinct biological features and challenging current renal tumor classifications.
