This case report describes a patient with an ovarian steroid cell tumor that initially presented as non-classical adrenal hyperplasia, emphasizing the difficulty in differential diagnosis with hyperandrogenism and the importance of close clinical monitoring.

This review discusses the association between cutaneous paraneoplastic syndromes and internal malignancies, noting that recognition of these skin disorders may help detect underlying cancers, but reports no new research findings.

In this case report, researchers described a 48-year-old man with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed a fungus ball (aspergilloma) within a tuberculosis cavity, a complication rarely reported in such patients, emphasizing the role of CT scans in diagnosis and the potential need for surgical intervention.

This study found that overexpression of PTHrP in mice chondrocytes led to short-limbed dwarfism and delays in endochondral ossification, highlighting PTHrP's role in inhibiting chondrocyte differentiation.

This case series highlighted three pediatric patients with congenital nail anomalies, revealing underlying developmental or genetic issues such as symbrachydactyly and potential Adams–Oliver syndrome, underscoring the critical role of dermatologists in early detection and diagnosis of these conditions.

This study suggests that Rushton’s hyaline bodies form through both epithelial changes leading to hair keratin production and hemorrhage supplying erythrocytic substances, resolving previous debates about their origin.

This article describes two cases of plica neuropathica, a rare hair condition involving severe matting, and discusses possible contributing factors and diagnosis methods while reporting no new scientific results.

This article describes pilar cysts, common dermal cysts often seen in young women, which typically require surgical removal.

This article argues that polysomnographic studies recommended for factitious leg ulcers in patients may be based on faulty assumptions about causality related to unusual sleep disorders.

This case report describes a rare instance of cutaneous focal mucinosis in a 12-year-old Chinese girl, presented as a hypopigmented plaque on her chin.

This case report describes a patient with Clouston syndrome who developed squamous cell carcinoma, highlighting the need for regular follow-up in patients with chronic paronychia that do not respond to conventional treatments.

A teenager's hair with alternating white and dark bands, known as Pili annulati, is a genetic condition that is usually harmless and often considered attractive.

In this case study, a 68-year-old woman was diagnosed with central diabetes insipidus and hypothalamic hypopituitarism due to a Rathke's cleft cyst.

This case report describes a 7-year-old boy with pityriasis versicolor presenting as scalp hypopigmentation, a rare distribution for this fungal infection. Diagnosis was confirmed via Wood's lamp examination and microscopy, and the condition resolved after treatment with topical terbinafine hydrochloride cream.

This case report describes a 22-year-old female with pseudoglucagonoma syndrome, where necrolytic migratory erythema resolved after treatment with topical steroids, emollients, and intravenous protein infusions, despite normal glucagon levels and absence of a glucagon-secreting tumor.

This article discusses the pulmonary manifestations of Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome, noting diagnostic challenges in differentiating it from other lung conditions, and underlines the need for further research on folliculin's role in cyst formation.

Cone beam computed tomography can allow for smaller safety margins around the target area in prostate cancer radiation treatment if used for ongoing treatment checks.

This study reviewed 131 cases of White Piedra and found it predominantly affects young women, often asymptomatic, with the presence of hair nodules commonly linked to hair-related factors such as long hair and use of hair accessories.

Isolated patchy heterochromia with pili annulati can occur without other health issues.

This case report documents a rare instance of a trichilemmal cyst occurring on the plantar surface of the foot, highlighting the necessity of histological examination for accurate diagnosis when clinical or radiological presentations are atypical.

This study analyzed patients with X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata and identified novel mutations in the emopamil-binding protein gene, highlighting the need for genetic testing alongside biochemical analysis for accurate diagnosis.

This case study found that a skin lesion in a Samoyed dog did not match any single known follicular cyst or neoplasm type described in the literature.

This case report describes a hybrid cyst in a Sprague-Dawley rat, showing both infundibular and matrical differentiation similar to different parts of normal hair follicles.

This case report highlighted a rare instance of Cushing's syndrome caused by ectopic ACTH from cervical cancer, demonstrating diagnostic challenges, treatment complexity, and high risks of morbidity and mortality, with less than 10 cases documented overall.

This report describes a case of widespread Porokeratotic eccrine and hair follicle nevus in a 15-year-old woman with keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness syndrome, involving both eccrine ostia and hair follicle infundibula.

This case report identifies a new type of hair matrix tumor called "rippled pattern trichomatricoma," distinguished by its unique cell arrangement and differentiation features.

This case study of a 45-year-old man from Tonga describes the identification of pachyonychia congenita through genetic testing, revealing a mutation in the keratin gene KRT16, associated with chronic painful skin and nail conditions.
