In this case report, a 12-year-old girl with underlying sickle-thalassemia and familial stress presented with Rapunzel syndrome, a rare gastric trichobezoar, causing generalized swelling and severe anemia, which improved after surgical intervention and multidisciplinary care.

This review highlights the potential of amphiregulin as a therapeutic target, noting its role in both fibrotic and malignant diseases, and discusses promising early findings but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes the clinical and diagnostic features of a mare with mammary lymphoma associated with anaemia and pruritus.

The case report highlights the diagnostic challenges of low-grade trichoblastic carcinoma, a rare malignant tumor often mistaken for benign lesions, in a 51-year-old female with immunocompromising conditions. Accurate diagnosis relied on histopathological examination, and achieving clear surgical margins was crucial to prevent recurrence.

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

In this case report, researchers observed that local radiation therapy to the orbits may not be sufficient to halt progression of new retinal lesions in older patients, even when the disease initially appears confined to the intraocular space.

In this study, five out of six patients treated with vemurafenib for metastatic melanoma experienced hair loss, which improved after topical steroid treatment.

In this case report, a novel Ayurvedic preparation of Catharanthus roseus, used alongside conventional chemotherapy, was associated with tumor stability and improved general health in a patient with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

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 report describes three cases of hypertrichosis lanuginosa acquisita occurring after cytotoxic chemotherapy for cancer, suggesting a possible relationship which is discussed alongside a review of existing literature.

A 70-year-old man with skin cancer on both sides of his forehead was treated with surgery and cryotherapy, highlighting the need for early detection and prevention.

This abstract outlines the current understanding of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC), identifying it as the second most common non-melanoma skin cancer with risk factors like UV exposure and immunosuppression. It highlights cSCC's potential to metastasize and become fatal, affecting 2%-5% of in situ cases.

This review discusses major dermatologic conditions occurring in the early post-hematopoietic stem cell transplant period and reports no new clinical results; it underscores dermatologists' role in recognizing critical complications.

This case report describes a unique instance of keratoacanthomas developing within a red ink tattoo on a 51-year-old male, eight years after tattoo placement, and highlights the importance of monitoring for these lesions in tattoos, particularly red ink.

This study examined dermoscopic features in African-American women with different types of alopecia and found that a perifollicular pink blush, potentially indicating inflammation, was common, particularly resolved with anti-inflammatory treatment, suggesting dermoscopy could aid in management.

This case report details a 65-year-old woman who developed malignant melanoma in her right eye socket following previous eye trauma, treated by orbital exenteration.

This study found that human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells inhibited A549 tumor growth but significantly promoted HT-29 tumor growth in mouse models, highlighting opposing effects depending on the cancer type.

This study retrospectively analyzed 945 patients with head and neck cSCC to identify risk factors for recurrences, reporting treatment modality, tumor characteristics, and patient factors such as immunosuppression as strong predictors for loco-regional recurrences.

Two patients had a rare combination of red skin spots and white scaly skin lesions not on the genitals.

This case report describes the first known instance of a testosterone-secreting steroid cell ovarian tumor causing pulmonary embolism and erythrocytosis in a postmenopausal woman, highlighting its potential role as a rare cause of hypercoagulable state.

In this case report, a 34-year-old man experienced temporary hair loss after undergoing an endovascular procedure with fluoroscopy for facial arteriovenous malformation, which resolved within two months following treatment with topical Minoxidil and oral Cilostazol.

This case report describes a rare instance of alopecia neoplastica, where breast cancer metastasized to the scalp, which can be mistakenly diagnosed as alopecia areata.

This study found that ethanolic asiasari radix extract may induce apoptosis in G361 melanoma cells through ROS-dependent regulation of p53, suggesting potential as a medicinal option for melanoma.

This study identified that bone marrow-derived CD34⁺ cells act as fibroblast progenitors to enhance tissue regeneration in ischemic limbs by promoting angiogenesis through interactions with macrophages.

This report describes the first known case of desmoplastic melanoma presenting as localized alopecia, highlighting the tumor's aggressive behavior and recurrence despite multiple interventions.

In liver cancer cells, this study found that upregulating hsa_circ_0002980 inhibits cell proliferation, metastasis, and EMT by modulating the miR-1303/CADM2 axis, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target.

In this study, researchers used single-cell RNA sequencing to identify seven cell types, including distinct steroidogenic and immune cells, in the tumor microenvironment of a case of ovarian SCT-NOS, providing insights into its cellular heterogeneity and molecular mechanisms related to hyperandrogenism.
