Requisites in dermatology: General dermatologyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
When asked to review this book, I wondered why someone would write another “general dermatology,” book and I further wondered how I could sit down and read another textbook of dermatology. Then I read the forward. The purpose of the series is to present topics—in this case, diseases—with an emphasis on the key points essential for residents and practicing clinicians. Their purpose has been fulfilled. (Source: Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology)

Circumscribed palmar hypokeratosisEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
To the Editor: Circumscribed palmar or plantar hypokeratosis (CPH) is a new entity recently described by Perez et al in 2002. To the best of our knowledge, only a few cases have been reported in the literature. It may be underdiagnosed, because most of the cases are asymptomatic, and sometimes it is misdiagnosed as palmar porokeratosis or Bowen disease. A 47-year-old woman presented to our department with an asymptomatic, solitary, circumscribed patch of depressed skin on the left thenar palm that had been present for approximately 10 years. There was no history of trauma or other notable incident. Her medications consiste...

Congenital dacryocystoceleEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
To the Editor: A 5-day-old female was seen in consultation by the pediatric dermatology service for a bluish discoloration over the right medial infraorbital area. This resembled a bruise at 2 days of age. On the fifth day of life, a gradually enlarging nodule was noted in the same area that caused some distortion of her lower eyelid. On examination, there was a 9- × 7-mm, very firm blue nodule present inferior to the right medial canthus (). There was no purulent drainage. The differential diagnosis included a deep infantile hemangioma or a midline developmental defect; however, a diagnosis of dacryocystocele was favored...

Persistent agmination of lymphomatoid papulosis evolving to classical lesions of lymphomatoid papulosisEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
To the Editor: Heald et al described seven patients with what they called persistent agmination of lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) and classified them as a distinct clinical subset within CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders. Patients had waxing and waning papules and nodules within a persistent erythematous and scaly plaque, histopathologically compatible with a LyP, but with a different clinical behavior. We observed a similar case with the same clinical presentation but a distinct clinical evolution. A 27-year-old male without medical history had a 4-month history of several asymptomatic, stable nodules between 10 and 20 mm...

Videodermatoscopy enhances diagnostic capability in psoriatic balanitisEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
To the Editor: Balanitis is an inflammatory condition of the glans penis that may be caused by a wide range of dermatologic conditions, including psoriasis. Psoriatic balanitis is clinically characterized by erythematous, nonscaling plaques most commonly located proximally on the glans and under the prepuce. Most often, genital psoriasis is part of a more generalized disease process, but in the case of exclusively penile involvement, the correct diagnosis may be difficult to make, and several investigations, including a skin biopsy, are often necessary.

Physiologic changes in vascular birthmarks during early infancy: Mechanisms and clinical implicationsEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
To the Editor: In the April 2009 issue of the Journal, Cordoro et al stated that physiologic vascular changes in infants may alter the appearance of some vascular birthmarks; they incorrectly suggested that these changes contribute to the efficacy of pulsed dye laser (PDL) treatment of port wine stains (PWS) in infancy. We have recently shown that high energy PDL of PWS before 6 months of age offers the best chance of eradication of these lesions. Factors related to laser–tissue interactions are far more responsible for this high cure rate than are physiologic changes in the vasculature. (Source: Journal of the American ...

Nonmelanoma skin cancer in vitiligo patientsEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
To the Editor: In the June 2009 issue of the Journal, Hexsel et al reported the incidence of nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) in a cohort of patients with vitiligo. In the “Introduction” section, they noted that the frequency of skin cancer in patients with vitiligo seems to be uncommon, with only a few reports in the literature. They identified 477 patients at their hospital with vitiligo, six of whom (42% of the study group) had a NMSC. Four were basal cell carcinomas, and two were squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). The pathology specimens were stained for the presence of melanocytes. Two of the six cancers arose in viti...

Freedom of expression or protectionism in the debate on sentinel node biopsy in melanomaEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
To the Editor: The Organizing Committee of the 6th Biennial International Sentinel Node Society (ISNS) Meeting in Sydney, Australia, held from February 18-20, 2008, refused to allow any presentations from the podium that did not support sentinel node biopsy (SNB) in melanoma. The members of the international panel who prepared the subsequent “consensus statement” all represented the same opinion. All but one of the references cited in the May 2009 commentary by Balch et al in the Journal were written by the authors themselves. As a result, it is my opinion that both the commentary and the consensus statement are biased...

Surgical management of congenital dermatofibrosarcoma protuberansEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Congenital dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare tumor with varying clinical presentations that is commonly misdiagnosed. Treatment of congenital DFSP is complicated by delays in diagnosis and its propensity for subclinical spread. Of 61 reported cases, 11 (18%) were treated with Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) and 46 (75%) were treated with wide local excision (WLE). One case was treated with imatinib, and the remaining 3 did not differentiate between receiving MMS or WLE. In the cases of congenital DFSP treated with MMS the clearance rate was 100% with an average follow-up of 4.3 years. The clearance rate seen...

This review will discuss the role of angiogenesis in specific cutaneous diseases. Scientific evidence now points to the role of angiogenesis in tumor development and many other cutaneous disorders. Angiogenesis is a complex process that involves angiogenic growth factors and inhibitors, many of which could be a potential target for pharmacologic intervention. Antiangiogenic agents have recently been applied to dermatologic diseases with promising efficacy.Learning objectives: After completing this learning activity, participants should be able to recognize cutaneous diseases where angiogenesis is likely to be an important ...

Angiogenesis in cutaneous disease: Part IEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Angiogenesis is an important process in normal physiology and disease pathogenesis. Angiogenesis is controlled in a healthy body by a system of angiogenic growth factors and angiogenesis inhibitors. When angiogenic growth factors are predominantly expressed, blood vessel growth occurs and disease may result. Successful therapies have been developed that target growth factors, their receptors, or the cascade pathways that are activated by growth factor/receptor interactions. There is good evidence that angiogenesis plays an important role in a wide range of cutaneous maladies, and angiogenesis-targeting therapies are playin...

Over-the-counter scar products for postsurgical patients: Disparities between online advertised benefits and evidence regarding efficacyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Surgical patients frequently read about over-the-counter (OTC) scar products online and ask physicians for advice about product use. We summarized the characteristics of the 20 best-selling scar products on the Web site drugstore.com and reviewed the medical literature for data supporting the efficacy of OTC scar products used on fresh postsurgical wounds. Products had an average price of $16.25 (range $9.49-$59.99) and an average of 9.2 ingredients (range 1-29). Silicone, vitamin E, and onion extract were common ingredients. Although weak evidence indicates that silicone gel dressings may improve postsurgical scar appeara...
