We report on five cases of skin metastasis according to the breast cancer (BC) subtype. Two cases of HER2 positive BC showed only skin metastasis after immediate postoperative period and rapid clinical response to targeted therapy. Another two cases of triple negative BC showed thyroid and lung metastasis in addition to skin metastasis, and their response of cytotoxic chemotherapy was not defin...

Precision thermometry of the skin can, together with other measurements, provide clinically relevant information about cardiovascular health, cognitive state, malignancy and many other important aspects of human physiology. Here, we introduce an ultrathin, compliant skin-like sensor/actuator technology that can pliably laminate onto the epidermis to provide continuous, accurate thermal characte...

zosteriform metastasis is a rare clinical distribution from spreading neoplasms of every organ to the skin. tumors most often arise from a n internal o r hematologic malignancy. w e report a 69-year-old man, a known case of malignant melanoma of the left heel. in this case, multiple red-brown metastatic nodules appeared four months after diagnosis. distribution of metastatic lesions resembled a...

In South-Asian countries like India people don’t care much about skin conditions. our country, prefer home remedies to cure conditions instead visiting dermatologist which can lead serious Early diagnosis disease is very ...

“Marjolin’s ulcer”refers to malignancies that developed in chronic venous ulcers, scars, or sinuses (1, 2). These malignancies also arise from various scars, including chronic ulcerations, inflammation, and fistulas after a long period of latency. Malignant transformation takes approximately 35 years. The incidence of malignant skin tumors that developed from scar tissue is 0.1-2.5%. Burn scars...

The increasing number of living cutaneous melanoma patients and the increased risk of developing a second primary tumour incited us to analyse the clinical characteristics of cutaneous melanoma and define the frequency, site, and type of second primary cancers in cutaneous melanoma patients. We collected data on patients who visited the Department of Dermatology at the Radboud University Nijmeg...

Chronic itch could be a presenting sign of malignancy. Pruritus of lymphoma is the common prototype of paraneoplastic itch and can precede other clinical signs by weeks and months. Paraneoplastic pruritus has also been associated with solid tumors and is an important clinical symptom in paraneoplastic skin diseases such as erythroderma, Grovers disease, malignant acanthosis nigricans, generaliz...

Round cell tumors of the skin in the adult constitute one of the diagnostic challenges for histopathologists, because their differential diagnosis covers a broad spectrum of tumors of epithelial as well as non-epithelial origins. As the first step towards the correct diagnosis, immunohistochemical screening of the tumor sample by CD45 (leukocyte common antigen, LCA) antibody is thought to be us...

Objective To suggest a low-cost, easily-operable, non-invasive imaging modality for cancer detection in rural settings. Method A total of 212 cases with palpable breast masses aged 18 - 65 years were enrolled and underwent thorough clinical, mammographic, and ultrasonographic (USG) evaluation. Imaging findings were reported using the American College of Radiology (ACR) Breast Imaging Reporting ...

Registry data show that there is an overall 3-5-fold increase in cancer risk in transplant recipients compared with the general population, with skin cancers and lymphoma particularly prevalent. Cancers in transplant recipients are often more aggressive than those in the general population, with poor prognosis, particularly for gastrointestinal tumours and lymphomas. Risk factors for post-trans...
