Pembrolizumab-Induced Rupioid Psoriasis Treated by Apremilast Without Interrupting the Ongoing Antineoplastic Treatment.

We report the case of a 77-year-old man affected by a poorly differentiated metastatic pulmonary adenocarcinoma who, after the first course of therapy with cisplatin-pemetrexed-pembrolizumab treatment, developed rupioid psoriasis. We decided to discontinue pembrolizumab for four weeks until lesions improved and to start therapy with apremilast (an oral small molecule phosphodiesterase (PDE)4 inhibitor) in combination with systemic methylprednisolone 16 mg/day with consequent tapering until discontinuation in a few weeks. After accomplishing three months of treatment with apremilast, the patient gained complete remission of the rupioid lesions. Pembrolizumab therapy was reintroduced, and cycles were carried out without exacerbating the clinical picture. During the fourth month of therapy with apremilast, it was attempted to stop the treatment despite continuing the therapy with pembrolizumab. As a result, there was a relapse of the erythematous scaling plaques. After the subsequent reintroduction of apremilast, a new remission of the clinical picture occurred despite the absence of interruption of pembrolizumab. As far as we know, this is the second case of rupioid psoriasis induced by immunotherapy with pembrolizumab. Still, while the previous case was undergoing therapy with acitretin and methylprednisone, our patient is the first case treated with apremilast with excellent and rapid remission even after discontinuation and re-administration of pembrolizumab without exacerbation of dermatitis. In addition, the appearance of psoriasis during immunotherapy can be properly treated, which does not contraindicate the continuation of the antineoplastic treatment.

Autoimmunity in thymic epithelial tumors: a not yet clarified pathologic paradigm associated with several unmet clinical needs.

Thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) are rare mediastinal cancers originating from the thymus, classified in two main histotypes: thymoma and thymic carcinoma (TC). TETs affect a primary lymphoid organ playing a critical role in keeping T-cell homeostasis and ensuring an adequate immunological tolerance against "self". In particular, thymomas and not TC are frequently associated with autoimmune diseases (ADs), with Myasthenia Gravis being the most common AD present in 30% of patients with thymoma. This comorbidity, in addition to negatively affecting the quality and duration of patients' life, reduces the spectrum of the available therapeutic options. Indeed, the presence of autoimmunity represents an exclusion criteria for the administration of the newest immunotherapeutic treatments with checkpoint inhibitors. The pathophysiological correlation between TETs and autoimmunity remains a mystery. Several studies have demonstrated the presence of a residual and active thymopoiesis in adult patients affected by thymomas, especially in mixed and lymphocytic-rich thymomas, currently known as type AB and B thymomas. The aim of this review is to provide the state of art in regard to the histological features of the different TET histotype, to the role of the different immune cells infiltrating tumor microenvironments and their impact in the break of central immunologic thymic tolerance in thymomas. We discuss here both cellular and molecular immunologic mechanisms inducing the onset of autoimmunity in TETs, limiting the portfolio of therapeutic strategies against TETs and greatly impacting the prognosis of associated autoimmune diseases.

Tumid Lupus Erythematosus (TLE): A Review of a Rare Variant of Chronic Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus (cCLE) with Emphasis on Differential Diagnosis.

Tumid lupus erythematosus (TLE) has been the subject of heated debate regarding its correct nosographic classification. The definition of TLE has changed over time, varying according to the different studies performed. In this review, we address the initial definition of TLE, the changes that have taken place in the understanding of TLE, and its placement within the classification of cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE), with a focus on clinical, histopathological, immunophenotypical, and differential diagnosis aspects.

Tracking Endometrial Malacoplakia Through the Evolution of 2D and 3D Ultrasound and Histopathological Features.

Malacoplakia is an uncommon disease characterized by chronic and granulomatous inflammation, which rarely involves the female genital tract. We describe the ecographic and histological evolution of the first case of a patient developing endometrial malacoplakia as a complication after a cesarean section. The patient, a 43-year-old woman, presented with pelvic pain one month after delivering by cesarean section and the initial suspicion was of retention of placental rests. We discuss the diagnostic challenges for this rare disease, highlighting the importance of considering endometrial malacoplakia as a possible diagnosis in patients with similar clinical presentations and the important role of 2D and 3D ultrasound in the diagnostic pathway. In literature, ultrasound findings in cases of endometrial malacoplakia are represented by hypoechoic thickening of the endometrial lining; hyperechoic thickening of the myometrium, and the presence of masses, nodules, cystic areas, or anechoic fluid within the endometrium. For the first time, we describe the evolution of endometrial malacoplakia through both ultrasound, 2D and 3D, and histopathological findings, from the acute to chronic stage of the disease.

Kinase Fusions in Spitz Melanocytic Tumors: The Past, the Present, and the Future.

In recent years, particular interest has developed in molecular biology applied to the field of dermatopathology, with a focus on nevi of the Spitz spectrum. From 2014 onwards, an increasing number of papers have been published to classify, stratify, and correctly frame molecular alterations, including kinase fusions. In this paper, we try to synthesize the knowledge gained in this area so far. In December 2023, we searched Medline and Scopus for case reports and case series, narrative and systematic reviews, meta-analyses, observational studies-either longitudinal or historical, case series, and case reports published in English in the last 15 years using the keywords spitzoid neoplasms, kinase fusions, ALK, ROS1, NTRK (1-2-3), MET, RET, MAP3K8, and RAF1. ALK-rearranged Spitz tumors and ROS-1-rearranged tumors are among the most studied and characterized entities in the literature, in an attempt (although not always successful) to correlate histopathological features with the probable molecular driver alteration. NTRK-, RET-, and MET-rearranged Spitz tumors present another studied and characterized entity, with several rearrangements described but as of yet incomplete information about their prognostic significance. Furthermore, although rarer, rearrangements of serine-threonine kinases such as BRAF, RAF1, and MAP3K8 have also been described, but more cases with more detailed information about possible histopathological alterations, mechanisms of etiopathogenesis, and also prognosis are needed. The knowledge of molecular drivers is of great interest in the field of melanocytic diagnostics, and it is important to consider that in addition to immunohistochemistry, molecular techniques such as FISH, PCR, and/or NGS are essential to confirm and classify the different patterns of mutation. Future studies with large case series and molecular sequencing techniques are needed to allow for a more complete and comprehensive understanding of the role of fusion kinases in the spitzoid tumor family.

BRCA Mutation Patients: Are There Other Predisposing Factors for Ovarian Cancer Occurrence? A Multicenter Retrospective Study.

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this multicenter retrospective study aimed to evaluate the association of clinical variables and the incidence of ovarian cancer in patients with BRCA 1-2 mutation carriers who underwent risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO). DESIGN: Patients with a pathogenic mutation of BRCA 1-2 genes and with no evidence of disease are considered eligible. The exclusion criterion was the refusal to undergo the surgery. The retrospective study included all RRSO performed from May 2015 to April 2022 in the three gynecological Institutions of Southern Italy for were included in this retrospective study. PARTICIPANTS/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS: Age, menarche age, BMI, menopause at time of RRSO, breast cancer first- and second-degree relatives, ovarian cancer first- and second-degree relatives, estroprogestin use, pregnancy normal full-term delivery, history of endometriosis, previous breast cancer and histologic type, previous abdominal/pelvic surgery, BRCA 1 or BRCA 2 status, preoperative serum CA-125 levels (IU/mL), age at time of RRSO and histological analysis were collected. RESULTS: 184 were recruited. One was excluded. To assess cancer risk, the outcome variable was classified into three classes: no event, cancer, and other conditions excluding cancer. 14 women presented ovarian cancer and tubal intraepithelial carcinoma (STIC) on histopathologic final report. Ovarian cancer was found in 8 patients, whereas the presence of STIC was found in 6 of them. LIMITATIONS: The low incidence of patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer or STIC compared with the total number of patients undergoing RRSO is a potential bias. CONCLUSIONS: Our study did not demonstrate a correlation between clinical features and the occurrence of precancerous or cancerous lesions in BRCA mutation carrier patients.

Tattoo-Associated Skin Reaction in a Melanoma Patient Receiving B-RAF and MEK Inhibitors: A Case Report with an Emphasis on Etiopathogenic and Histological Features.

Tattoo-associated cutaneous reactions have become quite frequent given the increasing percentage of tattooed subjects globally and also in Italy. On the other hand, the increasing use of target therapy is showing the ability of these drugs to affect the immune system and also cause adverse tattoo-related reactions. In this paper, we report a case of a 42-year-old patient with stage-IIID melanoma undergoing treatment with Dabrafenib and Trametinib. The patient reported erythema, oedema and scaling in areas of the body containing a black tattoo, and, conversely, no signs and/or symptoms in areas with tattoos of a different color. Histopathological and immunohistochemical features indicated a lympho-histiocytic reaction with a granulomatous morphology, mainly distributed around the vessels and hair adnexa. By discussing the cases reported in the literature prior to ours, we concluded and provided the possible indications of the pathogenesis.

PRAME Is an Effective Tool for the Diagnosis of Nevus-Associated Cutaneous Melanoma.

(1) Background: Nevus-associated cutaneous melanoma (CM) is relatively common in the clinical practice of dermatopathologists. The correct diagnosis and staging of nevus-associated cutaneous melanoma (CM) mainly relies on the correct discrimination between benign and malignant cells. Recently, PRAME has emerged as a promising immunohistochemical marker of malignant melanocytes. (2) Methods: PRAME immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed in 69 cases of nevus-associated CMs. Its expression was evaluated using a score ranging from 0 to 4+ based on the percentage of melanocytic cells with a nuclear expression. PRAME IHC sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive values, and negative predictive values were assessed. Furthermore, the agreement between morphological data and PRAME expression was evaluated for the diagnosis of melanoma components and nevus components. (3) Results: PRAME IHC showed a sensitivity of 59%, a specificity of 100%, a positive predictive value of 100%, and a negative predictive value of 71%. The diagnostic agreement between morphology and PRAME IHC was fair (Cohen's Kappa: 0.3); the diagnostic agreement regarding the benign nevus components associated with CM was perfect (Cohen's Kappa: 1.0). PRAME was significantly more expressed in thick invasive CMs than in thin cases (p = 0.02). (4) Conclusions: PRAME IHC should be considered for the diagnostic evaluation of nevus-associated CM and is most useful in cases of thick melanomas. Pathologists should carefully consider that a PRAME-positive cellular population within the context of a nevus could indicate a CM associated with the nevus. A negative result does not rule out this possibility.

Evaluation of modulation of immunity by lymph node transfer: A preliminary histological evidence in lymphedema patients.

BACKGROUND: The exact knowledge of the local biological and immunological effects of vascularized lymph node transfer (VLNT) continues to be an emerging science but a positive control positive control over infectious and immune-mediated processes is often advocated. Knowing the characterization of the inflammatory infiltrate associated with lymphedema, the aim of this paper is to verify the hypothesis that VLNT is able to modulate the inflammatory and immune microenvironment of lymphedematous tissue by evaluating any modification of the local inflammatory cell infiltrate. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A prospectively database of patients who received VLN transfer for lower extremity lymphedema between January 2018 and December 2020 was reviewed. Nine patients diagnosed with extremities' stage II secondary lymphedema were included, with a mean age of 55.3 (range 39-66 years) years. Gastroepiploic lymph node transfer was performed in all patients and transferred heterotopically. Full thickness 6-mm skin punch biopsies were obtained from all voluntary lymph node transfer patients at identical sites of the lymphedematous limb during the surgical procedure of VLNT (T0) and 1 year later (T1). Immunohistochemistry was performed using antibodies against the following markers: anti-CD3; anti-CD4; anti-CD8; anti-CD68. Data at T0 were compared to those at T1. RESULTS: Post-operative course was uneventful in all cases experiencing a significant reduction (almost a third) in terms of cellulitis episodes: The median duration of follow-up for patients was 28.3 months (range 12-40). The analysis of the density of the inflammatory cells as a whole revealed a significant reduction at T1 compared to T0. Specifically, CD3 expression levels turned from 16.36 ± 3.421 (cells/mm2 ) pre-operatively to 7.6 ± 1.511 (cells/mm2 ) post-operatively (p < .0001). CD4+ cells turned from 7.270 ± 3.421 (cells/mm2 ) at T0 to 4.815 ± 1.511 cells/mm2 at T1 (p = .0173). CD8 expression values decreased from 4.360 ± 3.421 (cells/mm2 ) to 2.753 ± 1.451 (cell/mm2 ) at T1 (p = .0003). Monocyte/macrophage marker CD68 varied from 8.208 ± 2.314 (cells/mm2 ) at T0 to 7.600 ± 1876 (cells/mm2 ) at T1 (p = .0003). CONCLUSION: VLNT decreases skin and subcutaneous tissues' infiltration of inflammatory cells, providing one explanation for the positive control of lymph node transfer procedure over infectious and immune-mediated processes.

Incidence of pre-neoplastic and neoplastic lesions of the cervix before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

OBJECTIVE: The COVID-19 pandemic had significant effects on healthcare systems worldwide, including the disruption of routine screening programs for cervical cancer. This study aimed to compare the incidence of cervical intra-epithelial neoplasia (CIN)2 and CIN3 lesions, adenocarcinoma, and squamous carcinoma of the cervix before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed using archive data from the Policlinico di Bari, Unit of Gynecology and Obstetrics. The study included patients who tested positive for high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) at the level I screening test (HPV test) and were subsequently referred to level II screening, which involves the Papanicolaou (Pap) test and colposcopic examination. We excluded individuals who did not comply with the recommended follow-up, patients with low-risk HPV infection, those with autoimmune diseases, oncologic diseases, or those undergoing immunosuppressive therapies. The time period spanned from January 2020 to December 2022. The incidence of CIN2/CIN3 lesions, adenocarcinoma, and squamous carcinoma of the cervix was compared between the pre-screening period (2017-2019) and the post-screening period (2020-2022). RESULTS: The study comprised a cohort of 1558 consecutive European sexually active women with a median age of 34 years (range 25-65) who underwent colposcopic evaluation of the uterine cervix as a level II screening program. The comparison between the pre-screening and post-screening periods showed an increase in the incidence of CIN2/CIN3 lesions, rising from 23.9 to 63.3 per 100 000 (HR 2.62, 95% CI 1.64 to 4.20; p<0.001). Additionally, although there was an absolute increase in the incidence of cervical carcinoma and adenocarcinoma, the comparison did not reach statistical significance (squamous carcinoma: 2017-2019, 2.5 per 100 000; 2020-2022 3.4 per 100 000, p=0.72; adenocarcinoma: 2017-2019, 3.5 per 100 000; 2020-2022 7.6 per 100 000, p=0.24). CONCLUSION: This study showed a significant increase in the incidence rate of CIN2/CIN3 lesions after the COVID-19 pandemic. Our findings may be attributed to the temporary suspension of follow-up programs during the pandemic, although the study does not rule out direct effects of SARS-CoV-2 on the risk of pre-neoplastic and neoplastic conditions of the cervix.

A human-interpretable machine learning pipeline based on ultrasound to support leiomyosarcoma diagnosis.

The preoperative evaluation of myometrial tumors is essential to avoid delayed treatment and to establish the appropriate surgical approach. Specifically, the differential diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is particularly challenging due to the overlapping of clinical, laboratory and ultrasound features between fibroids and LMS. In this work, we present a human-interpretable machine learning (ML) pipeline to support the preoperative differential diagnosis of LMS from leiomyomas, based on both clinical data and gynecological ultrasound assessment of 68 patients (8 with LMS diagnosis). The pipeline provides the following novel contributions: (i) end-users have been involved both in the definition of the ML tasks and in the evaluation of the overall approach; (ii) clinical specialists get a full understanding of both the decision-making mechanisms of the ML algorithms and the impact of the features on each automatic decision. Moreover, the proposed pipeline addresses some of the problems concerning both the imbalance of the two classes by analyzing and selecting the best combination of the synthetic oversampling strategy of the minority class and the classification algorithm among different choices, and the explainability of the features at global and local levels. The results show very high performance of the best strategy (AUC = 0.99, F1 = 0.87) and the strong and stable impact of two ultrasound-based features (i.e., tumor borders and consistency of the lesions). Furthermore, the SHAP algorithm was exploited to quantify the impact of the features at the local level and a specific module was developed to provide a template-based natural language (NL) translation of the explanations for enhancing their interpretability and fostering the use of ML in the clinical setting.

SARS-CoV-2 Infection in the Second Trimester of Pregnancy: A Case Report of Fetal Intraventricular Hemorrhage After Critical COVID-19 Infection and a Brief Review of the Literature.

More than three and a half years have passed since the start of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and there have been several studies in the literature about the different damage and symptom patterns related to the condition; particular attention has been paid to the transmission of the disease from pregnant mothers to fetus. In this report, we present the case of a 36-year-old patient with a history of two cesarean sections (CS), two miscarriages, and hypothyroidism on replacement therapy, who contracted COVID-19 during the 15th week of gestation. Ultrasound (US) examination at 22 weeks revealed regular fetal biometry and bilateral ventriculomegaly, highly suggestive of massive intracerebral hemorrhage. The patient opted for the interruption of pregnancy. Given the critical maternal COVID-19 complications, especially tracheoesophageal fistula and the patient's two previous cesareans, we decided on an abortive CS at 23 weeks of gestation, and the samples were sent to the Pathology Department. Histologic analysis showed massive intervillous deposition of fibrin and inflammatory infiltration with hotspots of necrotic deciduitis and confirmed massive cerebral hemorrhage in the fetus. This morphological appearance was consistent with COVID-19 infection and probable fetal oxygenation compromise related to deciduitis. Immunoexpression of anti-SARS-CoV-2 S1 antibody was almost entirely positive at the level of syncytiotrophoblast cells and maternal leukocytes in the absence of a clear signal in the fetal circulation. Conversely, in the brain, immunoexpression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and the S1 subunit of the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2, detected by a monoclonal antibody, was almost entirely negative, suggesting that there was no infection in the brain and that the massive intraventricular hemorrhage was probably a secondary effect of placental damage.

Blastic Plasmocytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm (BPDCN): Clinical Features and Histopathology with a Therapeutic Overview.

Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasms (BPDCNs) are a rare, highly aggressive hematological malignant neoplasm that primarily involve the skin, bone marrow, lymph nodes and even extra-nodal sites. The rarity and relative poor description of cases in the literature make it necessary to review and further studies that deeply investigate this entity not only in a histopathological but also molecular field. In August-September 2023, we searched MEDLINE, PubMed and Scopus for randomized controlled trials (RCTs), narrative and systematic reviews, meta-analyses, observational studies (either longitudinal or retrospective), and case series published in English in the last 25 years using the keywords BPDCN, PDCs, Blastic NK-cell lymphoma, agranular CD4+ NK leukemia/lymphoma, agranular CD4+ CD56+ hematodermic neoplasm/tumor. Despite the progress made in recent years in the diagnosis and biological understanding of the disease, until 2018 there was no clear consensus regarding its treatment and the main therapeutic schemes used were based on chemotherapy regimens already used in the treatment of lymphomas, acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and/or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In this narrative review, we address the definition and epidemiological features of BPDCN, provide the different theories on the etiopathogenesis with particular attention to the presumed cell of origin, discuss the main clinical manifestations that provide a sign of its presence, summarize the main histopathological and immunophenotypic characteristics with special attention to the most important markers, and finally, we provide some of the most effective information on the therapeutic treatment modalities of BPDCN.

Poorly Differentiated Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (cSCC) or Lymphoepithelioma-like Carcinoma of the Skin (LELCS) with Squamous Pearls: A Case Presentation with Emphasis on Histomorphological Features and Classification Debates.

Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the skin (LELCS) is a rare primary skin cancer, with an annual incidence of 1/100,000 and about 85 cases published in the literature. It is considered the cutaneous counterpart of undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma (UNC, Schmincke-Regaud tumor) but has no association with EBV. We present an interesting case with features of LELCS in a 93-year-old man, right frontal-orbital region, diagnosed histologically and with immunohistochemical features. We also emphasize contrasting morphologic features for correct nosographic classification and address current issues, suggesting potential insights. Finally, we briefly reviewed other cases described in the literature.

Contraception as chemoprevention of ovarian cancer in BRCA1 and BRCA2 women.

Ovarian cancer is the seventh most common cancer in women in the world, with an estimated worldwide mortality of over 207'000 women every year. This cancer, due to the current lack of adequate screening techniques, is commonly diagnosed late and has a poor prognosis. The oral contraceptive pill is considered the most effective prevention strategy for ovarian cancer in the general population, being associated with a decreased incidence while also having a substantial positive impact on the mortality rate, which is reduced by up to 50%. BRCA1 and BRCA2 germline mutated women have an augmented risk of ovary and breast cancer: despite international guidelines that consider prophylactic surgery as the gold standard for ovarian cancer prevention, there are currently no effective non-invasive preventive methods. In BRCA1\2 mutated patients, clinicians should weigh the benefits of contraceptive pills against the risk of long-term thromboembolic side effects and hormonal malignancies such as breast and cervical cancer. A multidisciplinary team should counsel patients on the most appropriate risk-reduction strategy tailored to their needs and expectations, proposing the oral contraceptive pill to selected patients after balancing the risks of adverse effects and the benefits on both contraception and chemoprevention.

Endometrial Osseous Metaplasia: An Hysteroscopic Incidental Finding - An Overview.

Endometrial osseous metaplasia (EOM) is an uncommon clinical entity with the presence of bone in the endometrium which requires clinical and therapeutic framework. It is also described by various other names such as endometrial ossification, ectopic intrauterine bone, and heterotopic intrauterine bone. Ossification could have various locations as the cervix the ovary, and the vagina. This overview highlights the attention on the actual pivotal points of EOM.

Mature Triphyllic Cystic Teratoma of the Posterior Mediastinum in a Fetus: A Case Report and Literature Review.

A teratoma is a neoplasm composed of cell populations or tissues that are reminiscent, in their appearance, of normal elements derived from at least two embryonic layers. Fetal mature teratomas are normally benign, cystic, and typically occur along the midline, while they are rare in the posterior mediastinum. Teratomas are frequently solitary; however, they may sometimes be associated with other congenital anomalies and/or with chromosomal abnormalities. Clinically, they are often asymptomatic but can occasionally cause compression symptoms. Prenatal diagnoses are uncommon and made with ultrasonography; differential diagnosis with other congenital conditions is mandatory. We report the case of a 21 weeks of gestational age old fetus with a mature triphyllic fetal cystic teratoma, grade 0, located in the right posterior mediastinum. The tumor presented as a 3 cm wide cystic mass that caused a contralateral shift of the surrounding structures. Histological examination later revealed the presence of derivatives of the three germ layers, such as hyaline cartilage, smooth muscle, nervous tissue, and a respiratory-type epithelium.

"The Strange Case of Dr Pump and Mr Acardiac": The Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion (TRAP) Sequence in Two Monochorionic Monoamniotic (MCMA) Twin Pregnancies-Diagnosis, Prognosis and Management: Review of Literature.

The Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion (TRAP) Sequence is an extremely rare complication of monochorionic twin pregnancies, with one severely malformed twin (the "acardiac") lacking autonomous placental blood supply and being perfused by the co-twin (the "pump"), through arterio-arterial (and sometimes also veno-venous) vascular anastomoses located on the placental surface. The prognosis is poor: mortality is 100% in the acardiac twin because of its severe malformations and about 50-55% in the pump twin, mainly due to heart failure and prematurity. So, the goal of perinatal management of the TRAP twin pregnancy is to deliver a healthy and near-term pump twin without heart failure or fetal hydrops. Intuitively, the earlier the diagnosis, the better the outcome. Herein, we report two cases of monochorionic monoamniotic (MCMA) twin pregnancies complicated by the TRAP Sequence, which are of interest since the objective of early diagnosis was achieved by means of transvaginal and 3D ultrasound, two techniques which revealed themselves as being useful to this purpose but are underused in the literature. The second aim of this study is to provide an overview of literature data about the diagnosis, prognosis establishment, and management of this rare condition, which are still debated and unclear due to negligible poor-quality evidence.

Cutaneous Metastasis from Internal Malignancies: The Revealing Role of the Skin.

Skin represents the heaviest organ of the human body, covering a surface area of 1 [...].
