We have had a lot of interest in our journal from various industries. Many of these inquiries have come from companies that wish to advertise to our membership, while other inquiries have come from companies asking how they can become involved with our journal. All of this is exciting and very complimentary to what we have been working so hard and long to accomplish. Every industry and every physi- cian that looks at any issue of the JAOCD, quickly recognizes and realizes that we are not just another derma- tology journal. We are all about the dermatology resident, the future of dermatology! Currently, I am in discussion with various publishing companies that have interest in working with us to make our journal better and more widely distributed. I have also discussed outsourcing much of

  • Unusual Multiple Cutaneous Retiform Hemangioendothelioma on Forearm
    Clinical and Diagnostic Pathology Research Article Unusual multiple cutaneous retiform hemangioendothelioma on forearm and neck misdiagnosed as angiosarcoma with metastasis Bin-cai Pan1, Chun-hua Wang1, Gui-fang Huang1, Xiao-ying Tian2 and Zhi Li3* 1Department of Pathology, Guangdong Tongjiang Hospital, Nanguo East Road, Shunde district, Foshan 528300, China 2School of Chinese Medicine, Hong Kong Baptist University 7, Baptist University Road, Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong, China 3Department of Pathology, The First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen university.58, Zhongshan Road II,Guangzhou 510080, China Abstract Retiform hemangioendothelioma (RH) is extremely rare, and often involves the skin and subcutaneous tissues of distal extremities in young adults or children. Since its first description by Calonje in 1994, only a few primary multiple cases have been described in the literature. We present a case of unusual primary multiple RH on forearm and neck occurring in a 56 years old female patient. The patient presented with a slow-growing cutaneous plaque-like lesion on her left forearm, followed by another lesion at the site of neck for several years. In the skin biopsy examination, a diagnosis of angiosarcoma with cutaneous metastasis was made based on multiple lesions at different anatomic sites and vasoformative growth pattern with anastomosing channels under the microscopy. However, postoperative histological diagnosis of the lesion was primary multiple RH by thoroughly microscopical inspection and the presence of thin-walled interconnecting vascular channels arranged in a retiform pattern and absence of lymph node metastasis. Despite wide surgical excision with tumor-free margin, the tumor recurred at the neck 3 months after surgery.

  • Lymphangioma Circumscriptum of the Vulva- a Case Series Dermatology Section
    DOI: 10.7860/JCDR/2021/47435.14553 Case Series Lymphangioma Circumscriptum of the Vulva- A Case Series Dermatology Section RASHMI S MAHAJAN1, YOGESH S MARFATIA2, ATMAKALYANI R SHAH3, KISHAN R NINAMA4 ABSTRACT Vulval dermatoses pose a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for the dermatologists. Lymphangioma Circumscriptum (LC) is a form of lymphangioma affecting the skin and subcutaneous tissues that is characterised by benign dilation of lymphatic channels. This uncommon condition is known to occur over the chest, mouth, axilla, tongue, and rarely in the vulva. In this series, authors present three cases of LC of vulva in women between the age group of 45 to 60 years with late-onset fluid-filled lesions over the vulva. The first case had history of hysterectomy prior to onset of lesions, the second case had a spontaneous onset of lesions while the third was a suspected case of pelvic tuberculosis with secondary lymphangioma. Keywords: Lymphangiectasia, Vulvar, Vulval epithelium INTRODUCTION Disorders of vulval epithelium are a confusing spectrum of disorders. They are broadly classified as-1) Inflammatory, 2) Ulcerative and Bullous, 3) Infections, 4) Benign tumours and 5) Malignancies. It is essential to know the exact aetiology to plan successful therapy. LC is a benign lymphatic malformation characterised by dilation of lymphatic vessels in the skin and subcutaneous tissue with lesions erupting locally as isolated or grouped translucid, thin-walled vesicles filled with a clear liquid [1]. These pathological lymphatic malformations have no communication with the normal lymphatics [2]. The precise cause of LC is not established. It could be congenital or acquired as a result of damage to the lymphatic vessels secondary to various aetiologies.

  • Review Cutaneous Patterns Are Often the Only Clue to a a R T I C L E Complex Underlying Vascular Pathology
    pp11 - 46 ABstract Review Cutaneous patterns are often the only clue to a A R T I C L E complex underlying vascular pathology. Reticulate pattern is probably one of the most important DERMATOLOGICAL dermatological signs of venous or arterial pathology involving the cutaneous microvasculature and its MANIFESTATIONS OF VENOUS presence may be the only sign of an important underlying pathology. Vascular malformations such DISEASE. PART II: Reticulate as cutis marmorata congenita telangiectasia, benign forms of livedo reticularis, and sinister conditions eruptions such as Sneddon’s syndrome can all present with a reticulate eruption. The literature dealing with this KUROSH PARSI MBBS, MSc (Med), FACP, FACD subject is confusing and full of inaccuracies. Terms Departments of Dermatology, St. Vincent’s Hospital & such as livedo reticularis, livedo racemosa, cutis Sydney Children’s Hospital, Sydney, Australia marmorata and retiform purpura have all been used to describe the same or entirely different conditions. To our knowledge, there are no published systematic reviews of reticulate eruptions in the medical Introduction literature. he reticulate pattern is probably one of the most This article is the second in a series of papers important dermatological signs that signifies the describing the dermatological manifestations of involvement of the underlying vascular networks venous disease. Given the wide scope of phlebology T and its overlap with many other specialties, this review and the cutaneous vasculature. It is seen in benign forms was divided into multiple instalments. We dedicated of livedo reticularis and in more sinister conditions such this instalment to demystifying the reticulate as Sneddon’s syndrome. There is considerable confusion pattern.

EYELID & CONJUNCTIVAL TUMORS EYELID & CONJUNCTIVAL TUMORS 5 6 EYELID & CONJUNCTIVAL TUMORS Foreword Dr. Serge Morax I am honored to introduce this Photographic Atlas of palpebral and conjunctival tumors,which is the culmination of the close collaboration between Drs. Olivier Galatoire and Mathieu Zmuda of the A. de Rothschild Ophthalmological Foundation and Dr. Christine Levy-Gabriel of the Curie Institute. The subject is now of unquestionable importance and evidently of great interest to Ophthalmologists, whether they are orbital- palpebral specialists or not. Indeed, errors or delays in the diagnosis of tumor pathologies are relatively common and the consequences can be serious in the case of malignant tumors, especially carcinomas. Swift diagnosis and anatomopathological confirmation will lead to a treatment, discussed in multidisciplinary team meetings, ranging from surgery to radiotherapy.

Results: A referral diagnosis of lower extremity lymphedema was given to 170 children; however, the condition was confirmed in only 72.9 percent of patients. Forty-six children (27.1 percent) had another disorder: microcystic/macrocystic lymphatic malformation (19.6 percent), noneponymous combined vascular malformation (13.0 percent), capillary malformation (10.9 percent), Klippel- Trenaunay syndrome (10.9 percent), hemihypertrophy (8.7 percent), posttrau- matic swelling (8.7 percent), Parkes Weber syndrome (6.5 percent), lipedema (6.5 percent), venous malformation (4.3 percent), rheumatologic disorder (4.3 percent), infantile hemangioma (2.2 percent), kaposiform hemangioendothe- lioma (2.2 percent), or lipofibromatosis (2.2 percent).
