Article Abstract
Cutaneous collagenous vasculopathy is a recently described idiopathic microangiopathy characterized by acquired diffuse cutaneous telangiectasias and specific histological features: dilated capillaries in the superficial dermis, with walls thickened by hyaline material containing collagen IV by immunohistochemistry. The authors describe 2 cases and review all cases reported in the literature to date, 34 cases including our own. Cases were mainly observed in women (sex ratio 0.41), median age 63.5 (16-85). Hypertension and diabetes seem more frequent in these patients than in the general population. Typical clinical presentation is fine hair telangiectasias appearing on the lower limbs and progressing toward the trunk and upper limbs, sparing the face. Facial and neck involvement are however reported. When faced with isolated acquired diffuse cutaneous telangiectasias, clinicians should perform a skin biopsy to rule out cutaneous collagenous vasculopathy.

Clinicopathological features of dermal clear cell sarcoma: A series of 13 cases.

Department of Pathology, Xijing Hospital and School of Basic Medicine, Fourth Military Medical University, Xi'an, China. Electronic address:
Background: Dermal clear cell sarcoma (DCCS) is a rare malignant mesenchymal neoplasm. Owing to the overlaps in its morphological and immunophenotypic profiles with a broad spectrum of tumors exhibiting melanocytic differentiation, it is frequently misdiagnosed as other tumor entities in clinical practice. By systematically analyzing the clinicopathological characteristics, immunophenotypic features, and molecular biological properties of DCCS, this study intends to further enhance pathologists' understanding of this disease and provide a valuable reference for its accurate diagnosis.

Dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 inhibitors, DPP-4i, are an established antiglycaemic medication for Type 2 Diabetes. There has been a growing interest in DPP-4i's potential to improve wound healing and reduce fibrosis. The purpose of this study is to survey the current literature for applications of DPP-4i in wound healing and scars, and explore their potential outside of glycaemic control.

Treatments can involve long recovery times, marked by pain, erythema, edema, and purpura, which is often a limiting factor in a patient’s willingness to undergo a procedure.
Objective: This study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of an Angiopoietin-1 derived QHREDGS peptide (Q-peptide) hydrogel and ointment, in comparison to a peptide-free control, in enhancing healing and patient satisfaction after radiofrequency microneedling (RFMN) treatment.

Introduction: Workplace-related traumatic lip injuries, particularly at the vermilion-cutaneous junction, are challenging due to functional impairment and visible scarring. While typically managed in specialized settings, some cases present in primary care clinics. This report details the successful management of a penetrating laceration at this junction using layered closure and MEBO for optimized healing, with postoperative scar massage therapy to enhance recovery.
