This article reports on a patient case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, detailing symptoms and diagnostic findings, and reviews the syndrome's characteristics without presenting new clinical data.

In this report, two cases of melanocytic matricoma, a rare benign hair follicle lesion that mimics melanoma and basal cell carcinoma, were described and successfully treated with complete surgical excision. Histological analysis was crucial for differentiation from similar malignant lesions.

This study identified specific profiles and courses of adverse events associated with boron neutron capture therapy for head and neck cancer, suggesting differences based on the beam incidence site.

In this case report, researchers observed that a malnourished male patient developed pseudoglucagonoma syndrome, characterized by necrolytic migratory erythema and diffuse hair loss, following Frey's surgery, which rapidly improved with enhanced nutrition.

In this case report, a 20-year-old man with a birthmark was identified as having a supernumerary nipple, a developmental anomaly, using dermoscopy to distinguish it from other pigmented skin lesions such as melanocytic nevus or basal cell carcinoma.

In this study, Pomeranians with non-illness, generalized alopecia did not exhibit adrenal or pituitary abnormalities, suggesting a breed-specific hormonal pattern as a potential cause rather than a functional adrenal anomaly.

This case report suggests that lithium, either alone or with haloperidol, may induce skin changes resembling follicular mycosis fungoides.

This case report highlights a rare instance of esophageal carcinoma in a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, emphasizing the importance of endoscopic surveillance for malignant gastrointestinal tumors in these patients.

This case study describes a patient with discoid lupus erythematosus whose scalp lesions progressed despite treatment, with findings suggesting inclusion cysts and comedones as part of primary or secondary changes.

This report describes two cases of atypical Malassezia folliculitis in immunosuppressed patients, highlighting diagnostic challenges due to non-classical presentation in non-seborrheic areas.

This case report describes two female patients with white piedra of the scalp who showed remarkable improvement in hair condition after using 2% miconazole nitrate lotion for 8 weeks.

This case report describes erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp triggered by contact dermatitis from a glued-on hair piece, marking the first instance of this specific cause.

The man has a disease causing skin patches, thickened nerves, and mild muscle weakness.

This case study describes a rare cutaneous follicular hybrid cyst intimately associated with syringocystadenoma papilliferum, proposing a potential relationship with the infrainfundibulum based on keratin expression.

This case study reports a rare instance of an estradiol-secreting adrenocortical carcinoma in a 58-year-old male, causing feminization and Marie-Antoinette syndrome, with potential paraneoplastic aortitis.

In this case report, a 27-year-old woman with a swelling on her neck was initially misdiagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma, but was later identified as having pilomatrix carcinoma with lymph node metastasis, highlighting the importance of accurate diagnosis for effective treatment and prognosis improvement.

This article describes erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp, emphasizing its chronic nature, potential complications, and the lack of specific diagnostic findings, but reports no new clinical results.

In this case report, a 33-year-old male with symptoms resembling Neuromyelitis Optica was treated with 10 mg biotin daily, which may reverse certain ophthalmologic and myelopathy findings. The researchers emphasize the need for further research on biotinidase deficiency in patients misdiagnosed with similar conditions.

In this case report, a rare association between Cushing's syndrome caused by ectopic ACTH from cervical cancer is documented, highlighting the diagnostic challenges, treatment complexity, and high morbidity and mortality, with the patient succumbing to septic shock post-surgery.

In this study, researchers found multiple somatic mutations and copy number variations in a patient with Cronkhite-Canada syndrome, providing novel insights into its potential genetic mechanisms.

Corkscrew hair may be a new sign for quickly diagnosing scalp fungus in black children.

This study examined 16 sporadic trichoblastic tumors and found that although one showed malignant transformation, clinical follow-up revealed no residual or metastatic disease. RNA sequencing indicated a high tumor mutational burden and absence of a UV-related signature, helping to distinguish these tumors from similar growths.

This study shows that microdiffraction experiments reveal structural layers in keratinous tissues, each with different keratin types, potentially explaining their dual role as mechanical support and chemical barriers.

This case study highlights that breast cancer may present as alopecia refractory to usual treatments, indicating the need for consideration of underlying malignancy in such cases.

In this case report, an 18-year-old male's cheek lump initially diagnosed as a sebaceous cyst was found to be a pilomatrixoma after surgical excision and histopathological examination.

This study found no significant difference in SARS-CoV2 IgG seroconversion rates between patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases treated with targeted immune-modulating therapies and those on conventional systemic treatments.

This report presents two cases where dermatologists identified internal malignancies—small cell lung cancer and stage IIB cervical cancer—through paraneoplastic skin manifestations.
