Skin Cancer01:30

Skin Cancer

5.7K
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...

Papillary Dermis01:11

Papillary Dermis

5.4K
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...

Pigmentation01:19

Pigmentation

4.1K
The color of the skin is influenced by a number of pigments, including melanin, carotene, and hemoglobin. Recall that melanin is produced by cells called melanocytes, which are found scattered throughout the stratum basale of the epidermis. The melanin is transferred to the keratinocytes via melanosomes.
Melanin occurs in two primary forms: eumelanin that provides black and brown pigment and pheomelanin that provides red color. Dark-skinned individuals produce more melanin than those with pale...

Skin Diseases and Disorders

5.2K
Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...

Accessory Structures of the Skin: Sebaceous Glands01:21

Accessory Structures of the Skin: Sebaceous Glands

3.9K
A sebaceous gland is a type of oil gland found almost all over the skin ( except palms and soles) and helps lubricate and waterproof the skin and hair. Most sebaceous glands are associated with hair follicles. They generate and excrete sebum, a mixture of lipids, onto the skin surface, thereby naturally lubricating the dry and dead layer of keratinized cells of the stratum corneum, keeping it pliable.
These glands that produce the oils on the skin and hair are holocrine glands. The mature...

Changes in Skin Color: Clinical Perspectives

3.3K
The first thing a clinician sees is the skin, so the examination of the skin should be part of any thorough physical examination. Most skin disorders are relatively benign, but a few, including melanomas, can be fatal if untreated. A couple of the more noticeable disorders, albinism and vitiligo, affect the appearance of the skin and its accessory organs.
Albinism
Albinism is a genetic disorder that affects (completely or partially) the coloring of skin, hair, and eyes. The defect is primarily...

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Eruptive syringomas are a rare variant of syringoma.
  • They are benign adnexal tumors with widespread distribution.
  • This condition often mimics other dermatological conditions, complicating diagnosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To emphasize the diagnostic importance of histopathology for eruptive syringomas.
  • To raise awareness of eruptive syringomas for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Case presentation highlighting key diagnostic features.
  • Review of histopathological findings in diagnosing eruptive syringoma.

Main Results:

  • Histopathology is essential for confirming the diagnosis of eruptive syringoma.
  • The case illustrates the challenges in differentiating eruptive syringomas from other skin conditions.

Conclusions:

  • Awareness of eruptive syringomas is critical for dermatologists.
  • Accurate histopathological diagnosis is key for appropriate patient management and treatment.
