The Ninth Chondroid Syringoma With Bone Formation: A Case Report, Mojan Deriss, Kelsey Ouyang, Parnian Alizadeh, Amir Qorbani, Voicu S. Ciobanu

Annual Research Symposium

This poster presents a rare case of chondroid syringoma with ossification, representing only the ninth reported instance of bone formation within this adnexal tumor. The report describes a slowly enlarging facial nodule in a 34-year-old male, detailing clinical presentation, surgical excision, and histopathologic findings. Microscopy revealed characteristic epithelial cords and tubules within a myxoid stroma, along with mature lamellar bone formation, confirming the diagnosis. The case expands the known morphologic spectrum of chondroid syringomas and highlights the importance of considering this entity in the differential diagnosis of benign facial masses, particularly when unusual features such as ossification are present.

An Unusual Presentation Of Lichen Planus Pigmentosus Inversus Responsive To Topical Tacrolimus: A Case Report, Valeria J. Gonzalez-Molina, Sujitha Yadlapati, Michael R. Hohnadel, Rick Lin

HCA Healthcare Journal of Medicine

Background

Lichen planus pigmentosus inversus (LPPI) is a rare variant of lichen planus pigmentosus (LPP), characterized by sharply defined violaceous-brown to gray macules, papules, patches, or plaques primarily affecting the intertriginous and flexural areas. Unlike LPP, which predominantly affects Fitzpatrick skin types III to IV in sun-exposed areas, LPPI spares these regions and has been predominantly reported in White and Asian patients.

Case Presentation

We discuss a 66-year-old man with Fitzpatrick skin type III who presented with a year-long history of mildly itchy, hyperpigmented plaques on the inframammary folds. These plaques developed after being hospitalized for a chronic urinary tract …

Inpatient Dermatology Vignettes: Seborrheic Dermatitis, Garrett Furth, Henry Lim, Marshall Hall, Christian Scheufele, Michael Carletti, Stephen Weis

North Texas Research Forum 2025

Seborrheic dermatitis is a common inflammatory disorder characterized by greasy scale, itching, and erythema. It commonly affects areas of the skin that have high sebum production or are sebaceous gland-rich, including the scalp, face, sternum, axilla, groin, and other skin folds. Seborrheic dermatitis can present in infants, adolescents, and adults, and is more common in men. The etiology is not fully understood, but contributing factors include presence of the yeast genus Malassezia, androgen levels, immunosuppression, family history, and stress or lack of sleep. Interestingly, those with neurological and psychiatric conditions, including Parkinsons Disease, spinal cord injury, epilepsy, and tardive dyskinesia, …

Herpes Vegetans In A Patient With Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (Aids) In The Setting Of Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome, Angelique Ruml, Ibeth Caceres, Anna Catinis, Theodore Rosen

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections classically present as a vesicular eruption on an erythematous base; however, viral infections may present much differently in the setting of immune deficiency. Herpes vegetans is an atypical presentation of HSV that occurs in immunocompromised patients, typically those with human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Herpes vegetans is characterized by hyperkeratotic, exophytic, and, sometimes, ulcerated nodules, often with a chronic and persistent course. Herein, we present an interesting example of biopsy-confirmed anogenital herpes vegetans in a 61-year-old male with AIDS in the setting of immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome, an association that is …

Two Cases Of Pigmented Basal Cell Carcinoma In African American Patients, Angelique Ruml, Joan K Fernandez, Ibeth Caceres, Nisha Ramani, Ida Orengo, Theodore Rosen

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cutaneous malignancy, comprising approximately 80% of non-melanoma skin cancers. There are numerous subtypes, including pigmented basal cell carcinoma (pBCC), a rare clinical and histological variant. Skin cancers in African American patients, although rare, still do occur. BCC is an uncommon neoplasm in this population, but when it does occur, pigmentation is present in more than 50% of tumors compared with only 5% to 6% of BCCs in Caucasians. This report presents two cases of histologically verified pBCC in African American patients from dermatology clinics at the Veterans Affairs Hospital located in the …

Cutaneous Horn On The Right Supraclavicular Region In An Adolescent Female, A Rare Case Report, Rohit Gupta, Manoj Kumar, Ruchi Sinha, Reva Shankar Sahu

The New Ropanasuri Journal of Surgery

Cutaneous horn (CH) is an outgrowth from the skin surface, composed of keratin, and associated with benign to malignant skin lesions. We report a case of CH in a 15-year-old female associated with Keratoacanthoma. It is uncommon in young people and is associated with a good prognosis because of its benign nature. This case needs to be reported as it highlights the rare occurrence of this condition in the younger age group and its good prognosis. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice, with histopathologic diagnosis playing a critical role in determining the nature and further treatment of this condition …
