This article compiles references on toxic epidermal necrolysis and cutaneous reactions to anticancer agents but reports no new findings.

This study reports that in a case of benign Brenner tumor, elevated androgens may originate from luteinized stromal cells, as these cells do not convert androgen to estrogen due to suppressed aromatase biosynthesis.

This study found that among patients with sex cord stromal ovarian tumors, 11% exhibited signs of virilization, requiring thorough clinical evaluation to rule out non-neoplastic causes.

This case study reports that a 61-year-old woman with high testosterone levels due to stromal luteoma of the left ovary experienced rapid normalization of testosterone levels after surgical removal of the tumor.

This report describes a rare case of elevated serum DHEAS levels in a postmenopausal woman, linked to an ovarian sex cord-stromal tumor rather than the adrenal glands, challenging common assumptions about androgen sources.

This case study reported a postmenopausal woman with a testosterone-secreting ovarian tumor that was not detected through standard clinical or radiological examination but was found via biopsy.

This case report highlights a rare ovarian steroid cell tumor as the cause of androgen excess in a 36-year-old woman and underscores the importance of thorough preoperative workup to avoid unnecessary surgery.

This study found that CRABP1, Nestin, and Ephrin B2 are expressed in both the tumor stroma and invasive front of skin adnexal tumors and basal cell carcinomas.

This systematic review found that mixed epithelial and stromal tumor of the seminal vesicle (MESTSV) is characterized by abundant stromal proliferation, architectural heterogeneity, and strong immunoreactivity for ER/PR, with most being benign but warranting surveillance for possible recurrence or metastasis.

This case report discusses a 17-year-old in Haiti diagnosed with a rare ovarian Sertoli-Leydig tumor, emphasizing the importance of considering future fertility and psychosocial effects when managing such conditions.

This case study reported two instances of female androgenetic alopecia with male pattern reversed after surgical removal of an ovarian tumor.

This study suggests that targeting the tumor stroma to promote the formation of dermal condensates may offer a novel approach to treating basal cell carcinoma.

This study found cutaneous keratinic amyloid deposition in dogs and identified cytokeratin 5 as an amyloid precursor protein, revealing new insights into the etiology of cutaneous amyloidosis.

This retrospective study found that serum hormone levels and MRI detection of ovarian nodules contributed to distinguishing virilizing ovarian tumors from ovarian stromal hyperthecosis in postmenopausal women, though histopathology remains crucial for diagnosis.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with virilization and an ovarian steroid cell tumor, highlighting the rarity and diagnostic importance of such tumors in this demographic.

This report describes cases of trichoblastoma and trichoepithelioma in mixed-breed dogs, highlighting their distinct microscopic characteristics without suggesting broader clinical implications.

This study reports a case of an ovarian steroid cell tumor with malignant potential, presenting unusually with osteopenia and low weight instead of the expected virilizing symptoms.

This study documented distinct expression patterns of stem cell markers LGR5 and LGR6 in various human skin tumors, highlighting differences in their potential roles and contributions to tumor development.

This case report describes a woman with severe hyperandrogenism due to ovarian tumors, where surgical removal led to dramatic improvement in her diabetes control and reduced insulin requirements.

In this study, researchers documented the immunohistochemical distribution of CD34 in basal cell carcinoma and found distinct patterns of CD34 expression, with variations in CD34 positivity between different areas of BCC tumor stroma and adjacent skin regions.

This case report highlights that uncommon ovarian tumors like sclerosal stromal tumors can cause hirsutism and virilization in postmenopausal women and lead to androgen secretion, despite typically being hormonally inactive.

In this review, the authors discuss how hair may protect against scalp skin cancer by enabling IL-17-biased immunosurveillance, while hair loss could permit tumor development by reducing this immune protection.

This review by two dermatologists suggests that hair on the human scalp may protect against skin cancer not just physically, but by enabling IL-17 immune surveillance, with hair loss potentially leading to increased tumor growth due to reduced immunosurveillance.

In this case study, a 51-year-old Japanese man was diagnosed with desmoplastic trichoepithelioma after histological examination of surgically excised facial plaques.

This article is a letter to the editor discussing hair graying and loss potentially induced by imatinib mesylate, but it does not provide new research results.

This case report describes an unusual trichofolliculoma in a 54-year-old man, notable for its prominent mucinosis, which is typically not as abundant in such tumors.

This case study describes two postmenopausal women with severe androgen excess symptoms, diagnosed with ovarian hyperthecosis and stromal hyperplasia, emphasizing the challenges in differentiating these benign conditions from androgen-secreting tumors and the importance of surgical and histopathological evaluation for correct diagnosis and management.

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.
