This study reported that squamous cell carcinomas of the scalp can be extraordinarily aggressive, potentially metastasizing and causing death, highlighting the need for early diagnosis and careful treatment approaches.

This case study reports that intralesional cidofovir was successfully used for treatment without systemic toxicity, suggesting it might be an option worth considering for SCC.

This study examined the dermoscopic features of five patients with tuberous sclerosis and found that dermoscopy can differentiate characteristic cutaneous features from similar conditions, potentially aiding in earlier diagnosis when other symptoms are subtle or absent.

In this case study, the use of somatostatin analogues was effective in localizing and confirming a neuroendocrine lung tumor as the source of ectopic ACTH syndrome, leading to marked clinical improvement in a patient unable to undergo surgery.

This review discusses central serous chorioretinopathy, detailing its etiology, associated factors, diagnostic imaging, and therapeutic options, but provides no new clinical findings.

This report describes a Cronkhite-Canada syndrome patient with severe sepsis and disseminated intravascular coagulation successfully treated using combined therapies, including recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin.

This study suggests that intralesional cidofovir might be a treatment option for SCC, as it showed a successful outcome without systemic toxicity in the reported case.

This study identifies a new mutation in the Scd1 gene in a strain of Kunming mice, causing skin and hair defects with the mildest impact among similar mutations.

This study found that the scalp coverage scoring (SCS) method is a non-invasive and reproducible technique that effectively measures hair growth and loss dynamics in male subjects with androgenetic alopecia.

This study reported that squamous cell carcinomas of the scalp can become extraordinarily aggressive, highlighting the need for early diagnosis and careful use of treatment strategies like wide excision and radiation therapy.

This article explores the historical development and evolution of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), emphasizing advancements in safety and technology, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that loss of the Pten gene in Lgr5+ hair follicle stem cells promoted squamous cell carcinoma formation through the Akt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

This review discusses the medicinal chemistry of steroid sulfatase inhibitors for estrogen- and androgen-dependent disorders but reports no new clinical results.

This proof-of-concept study reported that a new, ultra-fast, one-step immunohistochemistry method improved the interpretation of Mohs surgery slides, particularly for poorly differentiated tumors.

This case report suggests that Trichostasis spinulosa should be considered in diagnosing treatment-resistant open comedone-like lesions and that skin surface biopsy might be an effective diagnostic method.

This article proposes two new categories of cicatricial alopecia—“unstable” and “stable”—and suggests surgical excision as preferred over hair transplantation, especially for unstable cases.

Using Selenium Disulfide shampoo weekly helps prevent scalp dermatitis flare-ups.

This study suggests that skin tumor cells in tuberous sclerosis complex may promote hamartoma morphogenesis by expressing and releasing higher levels of cathepsin B.

Treat limited stage small cell lung cancer with chemotherapy and radiation, and consider preventive brain radiation for better survival chances.

This study evaluated shaved style scalp medical tattoo (SMT) in individuals with advanced hair loss, reporting high patient and surgeon satisfaction scores.

This study found that oral spironolactone improved certain biomarkers in central serous chorioretinopathy patients, but recurrence, especially in older patients, was relatively common.

This study reported that trichoscopy can identify specific hair shaft abnormalities linked to increased serological activity, highlighting its use as a valuable non-invasive diagnostic tool in pediatric dermatology for neonates with ECS.

The researchers reported a rare case of invasive cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma of the scalp extending into bone and dura mater, successfully treated with surgery and skin flap repair, without metastasis observed at three months.

This review observed limited evidence of clinically significant benefits from treatments for acute central serous chorioretinopathy, which often resolves spontaneously, but identified PDT and micropulse laser as the most promising for further trials.

This case report from India observed that short-term cabergoline treatment brought clinical and biochemical remission in a 12-year-old with persistent Cushing disease after surgery and radiotherapy.

In this systematic review, tSVF-based therapy demonstrated favorable outcomes for various pathologies, including aged skin and osteoarthritis, with low incidence of adverse events, while highlighting the need for further research into optimal protocols and mechanisms of action.

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.

Three molecular subtypes of advanced skin T-cell lymphoma were identified, with potential biomarkers for predicting treatment response and disease progression.

This study describes trichoscopic findings in 11 dark-skinned women with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia and highlights the potential of trichoscopy for early diagnosis and treatment.

This paper discusses the role of steroid sulfatase in hormone-dependent tumors and highlights the development of potent inhibitors, noting the commencement of a phase I trial for one inhibitor in postmenopausal breast cancer patients.
