Venous ulcers in Behçet syndrome.

Introduction: Post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) and stasis ulcers are late complications of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in Behçet's syndrome (BS). We aimed to determine the clinical and histopathological characteristics, treatment modalities, and outcomes in BS patients with stasis ulcers.

Method: We included 63 BS patients with stasis ulcers from a total of 310 with vascular involvement, seen at a multidisciplinary center between January 2021 and July 2022.

Avoiding Cutaneous Melanoma Requires Proper Sun Protection and a Correspondingly High Level of Education: A Case Control Study.

Background/aim: Cutaneous melanoma ranks 5th among all cancers in terms of estimated new case rates in men and women (6% and 4%, respectively). The most consistent known modifiable risk factor for a cancer of this severity is exposure to ultraviolet rays. In this study, we aimed to compare the sun protection knowledge, habits and behaviors of CM patients with healthy volunteers.

Folliculitis might be associated with pathergy-positivity in patients with Behçet syndrome.

Pathergy test indicates nonspecific hyper-reactivity of the skin to aseptic trauma in Behçet syndrome (BS) and is considered as an adjunctive diagnostic test with a good specificity albeit with low sensitivity. We tested the hypothesis that a relationship exists between active clinical manifestations of BS and the pathergy-positivity when performed simultaneously. Pathergy test and detailed dermatologic examination were done in 105 BS patients (60M/45F); who were seen consecutively at the multi-disciplinary BS outpatient clinic in a single tertiary center.

The role of dermoscopy in the diagnosis of subungual glomus tumors.

Background And Objectives: The dermoscopic features of glomus tumors have only been described in a few case reports. The aim of this research was to define the clinical and dermoscopic features of subungual glomus tumors.

Methods: Thirty-two patients with subungual glomus tumors were evaluated retrospectively.

A Proposal for a New Severity Index for the Evaluation of Chronic Paronychia.

Introduction: Chronic paronychia (CP) is an inflammatory disease of the nail folds. Staging of CP is important for clinicians. We developed an objective scale that evaluates each finding of CP separately in addition to evaluating the treatment process and follow-up.

Morphology, growth rate, and thickness of the nail plate during the pregnancy.

Pregnancy causes some physiological skin changes, such as hyperpigmentation and striae gravidarum. Thickening of scalp hair and a prolonged anagen phase are also known to occur during pregnancy. However, a limited number of studies have been conducted on the effect of pregnancy on the nails.

Periungual Eccrine Poroma Masquerading as Ingrown Toenails .

Eccrine poroma is a rare benign adnexal neoplasm originating from a portion of the intraepidermal eccrine sweat gland duct and the acrosyringium. Typically, the lesions are asymptomatic, slow-growing nodules, which may be found in any sweat gland-bearing area. Multiple red lacunae, glomerular vessels, hairpin vessels, flower- and leaf-like vascular patterns, a polymorphic vascular pattern, globule/lacunae-like structures, a frog egg-like appearance, and comedo-like openings have been defined as characteristic dermoscopic patterns of the disease.
