Human papillomavirus (HPV) encompasses a diverse array of viruses, comprising approximately 200 serotypes that affect humans. While the majority of HPV strains are associated with benign skin or mucous membrane growths, a subset is implicated in severe health conditions, such as cervical, anal, vulvar, and vaginal cancers. Despite the established e...
Infantile hemangiomas (IHs), boasting a prevalence ranging from 4% to 10%, stand as the most commonly encountered benign tumors during the early stages of human life. We present the case of a 2-year-9-month-old child who was born preterm with very low birth weight (VLBW), 1010 g birth weight, at 27 weeks gestational age. During pregnancy, her mothe...
In this narrative review, we aimed to overview the interplay between lichen planus (LP) and thyroid conditions (TCs) from a dual perspective (dermatologic and endocrine), since a current gap in understanding LP-TC connections is found so far and the topic is still a matter of debate. We searched PubMed from Inception to October 2023 by using the ke...
Allergic contact dermatitis is an inflammatory cutaneous reaction which occurs after immunological sensitization to the contact substance and clinically manifests with pruritic, erythematous, indurated, scaly plaques or cutaneous xerosis, thickening and scaling in case of chronic exposure. It is a T-cell mediated type IV reaction (delayed hypersens...
1) Background: With an incidence of 4-10%, infantile hemangiomas (IH) are the most encountered benign tumors in infancy. Low birth weight (LBW), prematurity, female sex, multiple gestations, and family history of IH are some of the statistically proven risk factors for developing IH. The aim of our study was to evaluate the prevalence of IH in our...
Acanthosis nigricans (AN) has been reported in relation to insulin resistance (IR). We aim to review AN through an endocrine and metabolic perspective focusing on IR in association with metabolic complications such as obesity, diabetes mellitus (DM), and metabolic syndrome (MS) with/without polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). We revised English paper...
