Syringocystadenocarcinoma papilliferum (SCACP) is a rare and aggressive malignant adnexal tumor originating from apocrine or pluripotent appendageal glands, often associated with a preceding syringocystadenoma papilliferum (SCAP) or nevus sebaceus (NS). This systematic review rigorously examines SCACP through an analysis of 78 cases documented between 1980 and 2024. The study aims to provide a comprehensive review of the clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment modalities, and outcomes associated with SCACP, while also reappraising its associations, particularly with NS. SCACP predominantly affects older adults, with an average age of 66.3 years and a slight male predominance, commonly presenting as ulcerated nodules or plaques on the scalp. This review highlights the aggressive nature of SCACP, evidenced by significant rates of metastasis and recurrence. Treatment is primarily surgical, with Mohs micrographic surgery offering potential benefits in terms of margin control and cosmetic outcomes. The association of SCACP with NS is critically evaluated, suggesting a complex etiopathogenesis and underscoring the importance of recognizing this association for timely diagnosis and management. Our review also briefly discusses potential pitfalls faced by clinicians in the diagnosis of SCACP. Our findings emphasize the need for standardized treatment protocols and further research into targeted therapies to improve patient outcomes in SCACP.

Cerebriform sebaceous naevus (CSN) is a rare morphological sebaceous naevus variant and challenging to diagnose prenatally due to its flat, smooth and waxy appearance and lack of association with extracutaneous manifestations.A multigravida was referred to our tertiary obstetric unit at 24 weeks of gestation for evaluation of fetal auricular lesions. We were able to further characterise the lesions via serial obstetric ultrasound imaging with the aid of three-dimensional (3D) technology. Although the precise diagnosis prenatally was uncertain, the use of 3D technology allowed the reconstruction of the fetal cutaneous lesions for multidisciplinary assessment to facilitate the development of a neonatal management plan. The diagnosis of CSN was made postnatally on biopsy.

BACKGROUND: Nevus sebaceous (NS) is a rare congenital skin lesion affecting approximately 0.3% of all newborns. Although benign, NS lesions can harbor malignant secondary tumors. The published rate of development of these malignant tumors varies. This meta-analysis aimed to identify the rate of malignant and benign secondary neoplasms occurring in NS.
METHODS: A literature search was conducted using PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science from inception to April 2023. Eligible studies reported incidence or risk of secondary neoplasms in patients with NS. Two independent reviewers screened studies, extracted data, and assessed the quality of included studies. The primary outcome was the pooled incidence of secondary neoplasms. Studies with sample sizes greater than 50 patients were eligible for meta-analysis using the random-effects model.
RESULTS: Twenty-eight studies were identified, 22 of which were eligible for meta-analysis. The overall rate of secondary neoplasms was 12.8% (95% confidence interval [Cl], 9.2%-17.6%). The rates of development of malignant and benign tumors were 2.4% (95% CI, 1.4%-4.1%) and 10.3% (95% CI, 7.5%-13.9%), respectively. The rate of development of basal cell carcinoma was 1.7% (95% CI, 0.9%-3.2%), whereas the rate of the development of syringocystadenoma papilliferum was 3.6% (95% CI, 2.5%-5.3%) and that if trichoblastoma was 2.6% (95% CI, 1.7%-3.8%).
CONCLUSIONS: Although the rate of development of malignant tumors within a primary NS lesion is low, it is not negligible. Prophylactic early excision remains a viable approach to prevent secondary malignant neoplasms, address cosmetic and functional complications, and preempt the need for complex reconstruction in the future. We propose that resection of NS lesions in childhood remains a reasonable first-line option in the appropriate patient keeping in mind that it may leave an undesirable scar.

UNASSIGNED: Epidermal nevus sebaceous, commonly known as the nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn, is a congenital sebaceous hamartoma. It typically manifests as a single yellowish plaque across the head and neck and is composed of sebaceous glands. It commonly occurs during infancy and grows during puberty. Usually, it follows a benign course; however, in a few cases, it can be malignant. This is the case of a 13-year-old child with verrucous plaques on the temple and scalp.
UNASSIGNED: We report the case of a 13-year-old boy with a steadily developing hyperpigmented verrucous plaque on the scalp and ipsilateral side of his face. A dermoscopic examination revealed ridges and fissures in a cerebriform pattern with yellowish-gray globules and a papillary appearance. Physical examination and laboratory tests revealed no abnormalities. Biopsies were taken from the scalp and temple area, and the findings were consistent with the diagnosis of nevus sebaceous. The patient was referred to a plastic surgeon for a staged excision.
UNASSIGNED: We describe a unique example of a sebaceous nevus that affected the scalp and ipsilateral side of the face. As this hamartomatous growth carries the risk of cancer development, a dermatologist must identify the condition and begin treatment before malignant transformation occurs. This example of multiple verrucous plaques is an exception.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the imaging and clinical features of unusual calcified lesions seen in the fundus of patients with mosaic RASopathy.
METHODS: Single-center retrospective observational study.
METHODS: Ten eyes with calcified fundus lesions in 7 patients with mosaic RASopathy.
METHODS: The lesions were evaluated with fundus photography, oral fundus fluorescein angiography, B-scan ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and computed tomography (CT) scan where available.
METHODS: The imaging characteristics of calcified fundus lesions were assessed.
RESULTS: We found 7 patients with mosaic RASopathies, 5 men and 2 women (3 with linear sebaceous nevus syndrome, 3 with oculoectodermal syndrome, and 1 with encephalocraniocutaneous lipomatosis) with molecular confirmation in 5 cases, all 5 having KRAS-pathogenic variants. Calcified fundus lesions were identified in 10 eyes (bilateral in 3 patients), appearing as slightly elevated, creamy-yellow lesions around or adjacent to the optic nerve, extending supero-nasally; all but 2 of these lesions involved both the choroid and sclera, with 2 of them only involving the sclera at the time of examination. One case developed a choroidal neovascular membrane necessitating intravitreal bevacizumab injections. All 7 patients had B-scan ultrasonography, and the lesion appeared as a hyperechogenic area with an acoustic shadow posteriorly despite reduced gain. Five patients had MRI, and where fundus lesions were present, there was a focal defect in the sclero-choroidal layer. Four patients had a CT scan, and all 4 showed calcifications affecting both the posteromedial sclero-choroid and adjacent medial rectus muscle. Two of these patients had normal eye movements, 1 had a unilateral fixed adducted eye and a vestigial fibrous medial rectus muscle seen in imaging and intraoperatively, and the fourth had marked exotropia with a right gaze deficit affecting both eyes.
CONCLUSIONS: We propose that the lesions seen in this cohort are calcified sclero-choroidal choristomas and should be suspected in mosaic RASopathies when creamy-yellow lesions are seen in the fundus. If identified, the possibility of choroidal neovascularization should be considered during follow-up. In all cases where a CT scan was performed, a novel sign of sclero-muscular calcification involving the medial rectus muscle was seen.

We present the case of a 20-month-old girl with Schimmelpenning-Feuerstein-Mims (SFM) syndrome with extensive head, neck, and torso skin involvement successfully managed with topical trametinib. Trametinib interferes downstream of KRAS and HRAS in the MAPK signaling pathway, of which KRAS was implicated in our child\'s pathogenic variant. Although other dermatologic conditions have shown benefit from oral trametinib, its topical use has not been well reported. Our patient showed benefit from the use of twice-daily topical trametinib, applied to the epidermal and sebaceous nevi over a 16-month period, leading to decreased pruritus and thinning of the plaques.
