This case report described a misdiagnosed kerion in a 10-year-old child initially treated as a bacterial abscess, leading to unnecessary surgery and residual scarring alopecia.

This case report identifies hand-foot and stump syndrome as a potential side effect of sorafenib therapy in a 47-year-old man with a leg amputation.

This article reviews the role of skin appendages in wound healing and appendage regeneration, discussing cellular and molecular mechanisms but reports no new experimental findings.

This study described a rare case of bullous pemphigoid presenting as cicatricial alopecia in a Hispanic female, successfully treated with a combination of oral methotrexate and topical steroids.

In this study, three patients with erosive pustulosis of the scalp showed significant improvement when treated with oral zinc gluconate and topical steroids.

This research discusses autologous mini-punch grafting, a surgical technique for treating stable, minor vitiligo when non-surgical treatments fail, reporting up to 75% repigmentation success in 78% of treated patients, although complications like cobblestoning and graft rejection may occur.

This study describes a successful reconstructive A-T flap surgery on a 74-year-old male with a 35mm basal cell carcinoma on the scalp, resulting in a 50mm defect, with no complications and optimal functional and cosmetic outcomes reported.

In this animal study, ginsenoside Rb1 demonstrated therapeutic effects on hypertrophic scar remodeling, with the highest efficacy observed at a dose of 0.56 mg.

This study introduced the C-CAT, a new assessment tool for central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, and found that established treatments improved symptoms in most patients over six months.

This study reported a drug-induced pityriasis rubra pilaris-like eruption in a patient treated with sorafenib, suggesting a possible effect of sorafenib on keratinocyte biology.

This study found distinct skin surface changes, including faint mosaic melanoderma and atypical scaliness, on long-standing sun-exposed balding scalps that may be associated with actinic field carcinogenesis.

In this study, the introduction of autofibroblasts into ischemic wounds was found to be slightly less favorable for regenerative histogenesis compared to a dermal equivalent with heterofibroblasts, with minor differences in epidermis thickness, collagen fiber area, and blood vessel area.

This study found that no-shave long hair-follicular unit excision using a skin-responsive device, without recess-tipped punches, yielded low graft transection and shaft break rates, improved procedure speed, and increased surgeon willingness.

In this case report, successful scalp reconstruction was achieved for a 67-year-old man using a super thin DIEP flap, a technique adapted from breast reconstruction that shows promise in head and neck surgeries for improving wound contour and skin coverage.

This review discusses current techniques for scalp reconstruction following oncologic surgery and reports no new clinical outcomes, emphasizing the importance of tailored approaches for satisfactory closure.

This article reviews the use of micrografts and minigrafts for facial and scalp hair reconstruction, noting it is safe, predictable, and achieves high patient satisfaction, but it presents no new clinical data.

This review discusses various surgical techniques for treating androgenetic and scarring alopecia and highlights the importance of understanding scalp anatomy and hair physiology, but it does not present new clinical results.

The author reports that using Total Excision Techniques in hair transplant surgeries increased graft yield by at least 50%, with minimal scarring in the donor area.

In this study using rat models, researchers found that subcutaneously implanted non-de-epithelialized flaps maintained persistent epidermal components, leading to potential complications, whereas de-epithelialized flaps showed gradual regression of remaining skin elements, lowering complication risks over time.

In this study, researchers found that a specific Sargassum horneri extract processed via low-temperature pulverization improved burn wound healing in mice by enhancing re-epithelialization and reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic candidate.

This review discusses the effects of vacuum massage on skin structures and concludes that there is insufficient evidence for its efficacy in treating burn scars, suggesting more research is needed on its potential benefits and mechanisms.

This article discusses the development and refinement of the hair-micrografting technique in cosmetic surgery and reports no new clinical results.

This study examined the use of medical dermapigmentation to restore lip appearance after traumatic injuries, finding that a staged approach effectively camouflages scar tissue, enhances symmetry, and improves psychological well-being, demonstrating benefits in a clinical case of a dog bite.

This study found that different types of seborrheic keratosis demonstrate diverse differentiation patterns, highlighting its undifferentiated and hyperproliferative state with varying keratinization directions.

This case report highlights the importance of early mycological diagnostics, supported by dermoscopy and ultraviolet-enhanced fluorescence dermoscopy, in preventing scarring from kerion celsi-associated hair loss in children.

This study identified a large deletion in the desmoglein 4 gene as the genetic basis of the Iffa Credo "hairless" rat's skin phenotype, linking it to lanceolate hair mutations.

In this case report, a 68-year-old Caucasian woman with Brunsting-Perry pemphigoid experienced scarring alopecia, which was effectively managed using intralesional betamethasone and topical mometasone furoate, suggesting this rare condition may be underdiagnosed in scarring alopecia cases.

This study found that PBMCsec has anti-fibrotic effects on mouse and human skin scars by regulating pro-fibrotic gene expression and inhibiting myofibroblast differentiation and elastic fiber breakdown.

This case report involves a 56-year-old woman with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura and scarring alopecia, suggesting diagnoses including discoid lupus erythematosus and lichen planopilaris without presenting new clinical findings.
