Skin Cancer

4.8K
Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...

Dermis
The dermis might be considered the "core" of the integumentary system, as distinct from the epidermis and hypodermis. It contains blood and lymph vessels, nerves, and other structures, such as hair follicles and sweat glands. The dermis is made of two layers of connective tissue that comprise an interconnected mesh of elastin and collagenous fibers, produced by fibroblasts.
Papillary Layer
The papillary layer is made of loose, areolar connective tissue, which means the collagen...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Neurology

Background:

  • Linear morphea in coup de sabre is a progressive sclerosing inflammation affecting the scalp and frontal region.
  • Extracutaneous symptoms like headaches and seizures can occur due to lesion progression towards underlying structures.

Observation:

  • A pediatric case of linear morphea in coup de sabre with subtle initial symptoms is presented.
  • The patient received a prompt diagnosis and was treated with oral methotrexate.

Findings:

  • The child exhibited a positive response to oral methotrexate treatment.
  • No adverse side effects were observed during the treatment course.

Implications:

  • Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for halting cranial progression and preventing neurological complications.
  • Methotrexate monotherapy can be an effective treatment option for linear morphea in coup de sabre, even in pediatric cases.
