Trichrome vitiligo is a variant of active vitiligo. The changes of melanocytes, keratinocytes, and Langerhans cells may be involved in the pathogenesis of depigmentation in trichrome vitiligo.
Isolated Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) of the glans penis is rare; only 37 cases are reported in the literature. Treatment of KS consists mostly of old modalities, some old methods in updated improved versions, and some new and experimental therapies. We report a case of isolated classical Kaposi's sarcoma involving multiple sites of the penis in a 54-year-old man who was treated with high-energy pulsed carbon dioxide (CO2) laser therapy, resulting in complete resolution of the lesions and no evidence of recurrence.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
