An Unusual Location of Subungual Warty Dyskeratoma: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Case reports in dermatological medicine, 2017

Warty dyskeratoma is an uncommon entity characterized by a solitary keratotic papule or nodule usually located in the head and neck of young adults. The histopathology shows a pattern of acantholytic dyskeratosis. We report a 32-year-old man who presented pain, serous exudation, a distal onycholysis with subungual hyperkeratosis, and roundish erythronychia in the nail plate of his left first toe 2 years ago. A histopathologic diagnosis of subungual warty dyskeratoma was made. When dealing with focal acantholytic dyskeratosis several differential diagnoses should be considered including Darier's disease, transient focal acantholytic dyskeratosis or Grover disease, and Hailey-Hailey disease. We present an unusual location of warty dyskeratoma in the nail bed using a clinicohistopathological correlation for the diagnosis.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma in a case of dyskeratosis congenita.

Anil, S., V. T. Beena, et al. (1994). "Oral squamous cell carcinoma in a case of dyskeratosis congenita." Annals of dentistry 53(1): 15-18. Oral manifestations of dyskeratosis congenita (DCG) have received little attention in dental literature. This report is a case of dyskeratosis congenita in a 17-year-old female which was associated with oral lesions such as leukoplakia, superimposed candidal infection, desquamative gingivitis, and severe periodontitis. Histopathologic examination of the granular lesion on the right lateral border of the dorsum of the tongue showed well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. Etiopathogenesis, clinical features, and laboratory findings of this disease are discussed.

Multiple Masses on the Tongue of a Patient with Generalized Mucocutaneous Lesions

PLoS Medicine, 2008

a 62-year-old man presented with a 6-cm fungating mass on the dorsum of the tongue ), which had lasted for an unknown period of time. The lesion had a roughened and irregular surface, with areas of white keratosis admixed with areas of necrosis. It felt indurated on palpation. Two additional smaller exophytic lesions were observed on the dorsum of the tongue: one adjacent to the main mass and the other on the apex. Both showed surface nodularity and minimal surface keratin production. The surrounding mucosa demonstrated hyperkeratosis and a pebbled surface. Interlacing white keratotic striae were observed on the right buccal mucosa ), while the mucosa of the left cheek had an erosive area bordered by fine, white radiating striae (not shown in .

A case of post-inflammatory warty dyskeratoma of the chest: Other dermoscopic features

Dermatology Reports

Warty Dyskeratoma (WD) is a rare condition consisting in single or multiple papular or nodular lesions of the skin or of the oral mucosamucosa. Histologically, a cupshaped epidermal invagination centred by a plug of epidermal hyperparakeratosis with suprabasal acantholysis and dyskeratosis is typically observed. A case of post-inflammatory WD, which was also observed by dermoscopy, is described. Dermoscopy showed an eight-shape whitish collarette surrounded by light brown pigmentation. A central white structureless area with an adjacent rosette were observed. Some small rust-coloured blood crusts were also observed in the centre of the lesion; no prominent vascular pattern was detected. The etiopathogenesis of this benign neoplasm could be multifactorial. Dermoscopy of WD is not specific but may help to ruling out other skin tumors.

The lesion had a roughened and irregular surface, with areas of white keratosis admixed with areas of necrosis. It felt indurated on palpation. Two additional smaller exophytic lesions were observed on the dorsum of the tongue: one adjacent to the main mass and the other on the apex. Both showed surface nodularity and minimal surface keratin production. The surrounding mucosa demonstrated hyperkeratosis and a pebbled surface. Interlacing white keratotic striae were observed on the right buccal mucosa (Figure 2), while the mucosa of the left cheek had an erosive area bordered by fine, white radiating striae (not shown in figure). A skin examination revealed polygonal, flat-topped papules covered with a fine network of white lines on the legs (Figure

Synchronous occurrence of oral squamous cell carcinoma and Warthin tumor

Oral Medicine & Pathology, 2009

Oral squamous cell carcinomas (OSCC) and Warthin tumors are relatively common lesions that are encountered in patients who present with head and neck tumors. However, synchronous occurrence of these two tumors is a rare phenomenon. This report describes a 61-year-old patient with a squamous cell carcinoma of the right side of his buccal mucosa, who received extensive surgery including bilateral neck dissection. Histopathological examination of the neck dissection, however, revealed a Warthin tumor of the right parotid gland. It is important to be aware of such a presentation of Warthin tumor to avoid overtreatment for OSCC.
