April 2020 in “International Journal of Dermatology and Venereology” The document reviewed the roles of beta human papillomavirus (HPV) and Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) in skin neoplasms, focusing on nonmelanoma squamous carcinoma and Merkel cell carcinoma. Beta-HPVs, particularly types 5, 8, and 38, were implicated in skin carcinogenesis, especially in immunocompromised individuals, through mechanisms like the "hit-and-run" hypothesis. MCPyV was associated with Merkel cell carcinoma, requiring continuous expression of viral antigens for tumor maintenance. The study emphasized the need for further research into the molecular mechanisms and interactions of these viruses in skin cancer development and highlighted the potential for new therapies targeting viral oncogenic proteins. Vaccines for beta-HPV and MCPyV were still under development.

February 2018 in “Journal of bone oncology” This study compared low-dose chemotherapy (LDC) and surgery for treating solitary bone lesions of Langerhans cell histiocytosis in children, involving 87 patients. LDC led to shorter hospital stays, faster symptom relief, and quicker recovery times compared to surgery, with mild chemotherapy-related side effects. Surgery patients experienced complications like pathologic fractures and infections. LDC resulted in longer relapse-free survival (87 months vs. 59 months for surgery) and better health-related quality of life at 3 months post-treatment. Additionally, LDC was more cost-effective. Overall, LDC was considered a safer, less invasive, and more effective treatment option for pediatric SBL-LCH in the extremities.
