Abstract
Pemphigus vegetans and pemphigus foliaceus are rare autoimmune blistering diseases characterized by the disruption of desmosomal adhesion proteins, particularly desmoglein 3 and desmoglein 1. We report the case of a 62-year-old male who presented initially with scaly red plaques posing several diagnostic challenges. [...] Read more.
Pemphigus vegetans and pemphigus foliaceus are rare autoimmune blistering diseases characterized by the disruption of desmosomal adhesion proteins, particularly desmoglein 3 and desmoglein 1. We report the case of a 62-year-old male who presented initially with scaly red plaques posing several diagnostic challenges. A histopathological examination revealed subcorneal acantholysis, matching the suspected clinical diagnosis of pemphigus foliaceus. The patient progressed, develo** vegetating plaques, and a new biopsy was performed. The new histopathological and direct immunofluorescence exams were consistent with pemphigus vegetans. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges posed by the transition of pemphigus foliaceus to its vegetating form. We discuss the role of desmogleins in the pathogenesis of pemphigus and explore potential therapeutic strategies targeting these specific autoantigens. Full article

Adenosquamous carcinoma of the skin (ASCS) or primary cutaneous adenosquamous carcinoma is a rare malignant neoplasm. It is characterized by the presence of both glandular and squamous cell components and a propensity for aggressive clinical behavior. Due to its rarity, it continues to pose diagnostic challenges. To date, only a few cases of this tumor have been reported, and even fewer have been thoroughly investigated via immunohistochemistry. Full article
