ABSTRACT
Inflammatory breast cancer is an aggressive and infiltrative malignancy that is often misdiagnosed as an infection because of its symptoms and signs of inflammation, delaying proper diagnosis and treatment. We report a case of inflammatory breast cancer showing correlation between dermoscopic and histopathological diagnoses. We highlight the utility of dermoscopy for skin biopsy site selection.

Erythrosis pigmentosa peribuccalis is an infrequent condition, with fewer than 35 cases reported in the literature, that affects mainly women. It presents as small papules that form a hyperpigmented plaque around the mouth and nose. Little is known about the etiology of this condition, its dermoscopic characteristics have not been described, and no effective treatment has been reported. We report a 15-year-old girl with this rare dermatosis who was successfully managed with daily calcipotriol, weekly topical ivermectin, and strict photoprotection. We also describe for the first time the dermoscopic findings of this entity.

La dermatosis liquenoide anular juvenil (ALDY, por sus siglas en inglés) es una entidad clínico-patológica benigna, descripta en niños y jóvenes. Se presenta clínicamente como una dermatitis liquenoide distintiva y posee, además, una histopatología particular. Las lesiones se ubican predominantemente en los flancos e ingles, y en la mayor parte de los casos, tras la suspensión del tratamiento, se produce una recaída...

La linfangitis esclerosante no venérea del pene es una patología poco reportada que aparece en hombres sexualmente activos. Se manifiesta como un cordón firme, próximo al surco coronal del pene, asintomático y de resolución espontánea en pocas semanas. Se presenta el caso de un paciente de treinta años de edad, destacándose los hallazgos clínico-histológicos descriptos con escasa frecuencia

El angiosarcoma cutáneo (AC) es una neoplasia cutánea de origen vascular rara y agresiva. Dentro de las distintas variantes, el angiosarcoma posirradiación es sumamente infrecuente. Se comunica un caso de AC en un paciente de 69 años, de sexo masculino, que aparece 56 años después de la irradiación de un hemangioma congénito facial
