A female neonate, baby A, was examined in the nursery and noted to have a small skin tag in the sacrococcygeal region (Fig. 1). The rest of her exam was normal and there were no obvious neurological deficits or any palpable bony defects. No skin tags were noted anywhere else on her body. Baby A’s mother had two vaginal skin tags. Upon further questioning, we discovered that baby A’s father, mat...

Giant acrochordon or fibroepithelial stromal polyps usually occur in middle aged women, and present more commonly in vagina than cervix or vulva. They are generally 2-5 mm in size and, large vulvo-vaginal acrochordons are rare and will require histopathological examination for definitive diagnosis. We are presenting a case of 8x5 cm giant vulval acrochordon.

Multi-tissue paraffin blocks provide high throughput analysis with increased efficiency, experimental uniformity, and reduced time and cost. Tissue microarrays make up the majority of multi-tissue paraffin blocks, but increasingly, researchers are using non-arrayed blocks containing larger tissues from multiple individuals which can provide many of the advantages of tissue microarrays without s...

Acrochordons commonly develop from skin on the neck and axillar region, but may be found on any region of body. Although some predisposing factors have been implicated, the definite etiology has yet to be determined. We report the case of a 46-year female patient who presented with a large mass lesion on the inner aspect of the thigh. She stated that the swelling had emerged some 20 years ago a...

Cutaneous skin tags are common skin growths, usually harmless, which protrude from the skin and may have a short, narrow stalk. Typically, they are the same color as the skin or a little darkerand appear mostly in the axilla, groin, and cervical area. In this report, we present a 30-year-old female with pedunculated and <spa...
