Localized myxedema histologically mimicking spindle cell lipoma
In this report, a 55-year-old woman with Graves disease and exophthalmos had a recurrent nodule on the foot. Her initial biopsy and excision specimens were believed to be consistent with spindle cell lipoma, which aligned with her early tumor-like clinical morphology. Her tumor recurred after excision, which is not consistent with spindle cell lipoma. As her condition progressed, her clinical morphology became more consistent with localized myxedema and her biopsies were congruent, securing clinicopathologic correlation. With standard treatment for localized myxedema, she improved significantly. This case emphasizes how cl...

Innovation in dermatology: where are the dermatologists? A retrospective review of the Pitchbook Database
To investigate the extent to which dermatologists are involved in innovative dermatology start-up companies, we analyzed the Pitchbook database which covers private capital markets. From January 1, 2010 to June 23, 2021, there were 105 dermatology companies, of which six (5.7%) had a dermatologist chief executive officer (CEO), 16 (15.2%) had a dermatologist founder, and 19 (18.1%) had a dermatologist advisor or board member. There were 98 dermatologists with leadership positions, including six (6.1%) CEOs, 21 (21.4%) founders, 11 (11.2%) chief medical officers (CMOs), and 60 (61.2%) advisors. Our findings highlight the un...

Pruritic papules after induction chemotherapy with daunorubicin and cytarabine
We present a 65-year-old woman who developed a diffuse pruritic papular eruption after receiving induction chemotherapy with daunorubicin and cytarabine for newly diagnosed acute myelomonocytic leukemia. The rash improved clinically with triamcinolone treatment and chemotherapy was allowed to continue. This case adds to the growing literature of transient acantholytic dermatosis development in the setting of anti-cancer therapy and emphasizes the importance of clinicopathologic correlation in cutaneous eruptions in cancer patients.

Milia en plaque manifesting as a post-herpetic isotopic response
We report a 63-year-old woman with a recent history of a bullous drug eruption treated with prednisone who presented with herpetic dermatitis and subsequent milia en plaque. This unique case represents a novel presentation of milia en plaque manifesting as a complication from post-herpetic isotopic response and highlights the wide array of isotopic responses that can occur following a cutaneous herpes simplex infection.
