Comparing the structure of a normal eyelid and one with a sebaceous “trichofolliculoma” of the eye lash.

Notice although a normal lid has a large sebaceous gland it is actually beautifully elongated and compact to not distort the surface of the eyelid, so that the conjuntiva remains closely opposed to the eyeball. By contrast the eye las has relatively small sebaceous glands.

FINALLY clinician’s have figured that the PSEUDOSCIENTIFIC term “squamoproliferative lesion” means nothing more than a proliferating squamous lesion 🤣
#dermpath #dermtwitter #pathtwitter #dermatologia #dermatology #dermatologist #histopathology #dermatopathology Image Squamoproliferative lesion was invented by some hotshot pathologist pretending its a diagnostic entity, but it actually means nothing more than an unspecified and unqualified proliferating squamous “lesion”.

Brooke Spiegler subtype of CYLD cutaneous syndrome.

#dermpath #dermtwitter #pathtwitter #dermatologia #dermatology #dermatologist #pathologist #histopathology #surgpath #dermatopathologia #dermatopathology





CLYD cutaneous syndrome was first proposed by Rajan et al in 2009 (Arch Dermatol. 2009 Nov; 145(11): 1277–1284.). This brought together three syndromes caused by a mutation in the CYLD gene on the long arm of Chromosome 16.

A great example of the importance and efficacy of a vertical plane of dissection to the deep margin.

Note the impact the angle of the plane of cleavage on tumour clearance between the two sides.

#dermpath #dermatologia #dermatology #surgpath #surgery #dermatopathology @javiperezhisto @pembeoltulu So whats is my approach. Well I estimate the average curvature of flat epidermis (see the blue lines) ignoring any focal large deviations. This to the best of my estimation is the “average” level of flat skin ignoring physiological and tumour related undulations
