Abstract
BACKGROUND Indolent non-epidermotropic CD8+ lymphoid proliferation of the ear was recently reported in the literature by Petrella et al. This is a distinct entity related to cutaneous T-cell lymphomas. Herein, we report a case of indolent CD8+ lymphoid proliferation of the ear involving the nasal crest and we relate a number of cases recently published in the literature. PATIENTS AND METHODS An 87-year-old woman consulted for a pigmented papular lesion of the nasal crest present for 9 years that had begun to regress spontaneously. The remainder of the examination revealed nothing of note. The biopsy showed dense lymphoid infiltration within the dermis. Immunohistochemical analysis supported the diagnosis of indolent CD8+ lymphoid proliferation. Treatment with moderate topical corticosteroids was initiated. DISCUSSION This novel entity is characterised by the presence of relatively non-symptomatic infiltrated lesions in the ear, which can occur bilaterally. Histological findings are frequently worrying with the presence of a dense cellular infiltrate comprising a relatively monomorphous population of CD8+ lymphocytes, although progression is usually indolent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM)'s interest has been well established for the non-invasive diagnosis of skin cancers, especially melanocytic, and in the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant cutaneous lesions. However, its diagnostic interest in inflammatory skin diseases still needs to be demonstrated. Our purpose was to evaluate the correlation between RCM and conventional histopathology in a series of pustular eruptions of different pathogeny. METHODS Reflectance confocal microscopy analysis was performed in eight consecutive unselected patients in whom the diagnoses of pustular psoriasis, bacterial sur-infection, herpes-type virus skin sur-infection, Sneddon-Wilkinson subcorneal putulosis and Hailey-Hailey disease have been made and images were compared to conventional histopathology. RESULTS Neutrophils within the epidermis exhibited never reported earlier specific features, with either a shiny granular sludge or polylobated particules with a bright granular content. Moreover, some specific etiologies could be identified, such as acantholysis and herpes-type virus-infected keratinocytes. CONCLUSION Our studies show a good correlation between RCM and conventional histopathology in pustular eruptions. Reflectance confocal microscopy may play an important role in the differential diagnosis of pustular eruptions; as most of the pathologic clues are epidermal, narrow thickness of the field of imaging, its main technical limitation, is indeed of lesser importance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trichoblastic carcinoma (or malignant trichoblastoma) is a rare malignant cancer of adnexal structures with morphological features that in some cases are reminiscent of a trichoblastoma. Trichoblastic carcinoma is underdiagnosed as it is a rather recent entity which is still not recognized as such by all pathologists. The differential diagnosis with basal cell carcinoma is often difficult to make and the optimal treatment has not yet been established. CASE REPORT We report the case of a 43-year-old patient who underwent surgical excision and adjuvant radiotherapy for a growing mass of 40 × 48 mm located in the lumbar right paraspinal skin. The pathological findings demonstrated a trichoblastic carcinoma. The clinicopathological profile, the histogenesis, and the difficulties related to the histopathological diagnosis and treatment of this rare entity are discussed in this article. CONCLUSION Although the published reports on this disease are few, surgery should be considered the standard therapeutic approach for trichoblastic carcinomas. Selected cases presenting clinical features of local aggressiveness can safely be treated with adjuvant irradiation to improve local control. However, acute and particularly late toxicities need to be taken into account in the decision.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The 'dermoscopic island' is a term that was recently proposed to design an area of a pigmented lesion with a uniform dermoscopic pattern different from the remainder of the lesion. The positive predictive value of this sign for the diagnosis of melanoma is about 50%. OBJECTIVE The purpose of our study was to see if reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) permitted to accurately distinguish between nevi and melanoma in such lesions. METHODS Five lesions of five consecutive unselected patients, with a dermoscopic island but no feasible clear cut diagnosis on the basis of dermoscopy alone were examined by RCM before excision for histopathological evaluation. RESULTS Two lesions corresponded to nevi, and three lesions were early melanomas arising on a benign naevus in one case, and on a dysplastic naevus in two cases. In all five cases, RCM permitted to make the correct diagnosis, with a very good correlation with conventional histopathology. CONCLUSION Reflectance confocal microscopy appears as a promising tool not only to enhance the early diagnosis of melanoma but also to avoid unnecessary excisions of lesions with a dermoscopic island.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early excision is the only strategy to reduce melanoma mortality, but unnecessary excision of benign lesions increases morbidity and healthcare costs. OBJECTIVE To assess accuracy in melanoma detection based on number-needed-to-excise (NNE) values over a 10-year period. METHODS Information was retrieved on all histopathologically confirmed cutaneous melanomas or melanocytic nevi that were excised between 1998 and 2007 at participating clinics. NNE values were calculated by dividing the total number of excised lesions by the number of melanomas. Analyses included changes in NNE over time, differences in NNE between specialized clinical settings (SCS) versus non-specialized clinical settings (NSCS), and patient factors influencing NNE. RESULTS The participating clinics contributed a total of 300,215 cases, including 17,172 melanomas and 283,043 melanocytic nevi. The overall NNE values achieved in SCS and NSCS in the 10-year period were 8.7 and 29.4, respectively. The NNE improved over time in SCS (from 12.8 to 6.8), but appeared unchanged in NSCS. Most of the effect on NNE in SCS was due to a greater number of excised melanomas. Higher NNE values were observed in patients younger than 40 years and for lesions located on the trunk. LIMITATIONS No data concerning the use of dermatoscopy and digital monitoring procedures were collected from the participating centers. CONCLUSION Over the 10-year study period, accuracy in melanoma detection improved only in specialized clinics maybe because of a larger use of new diagnostic techniques such as dermatoscopy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The occurrence of primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoma at the site of radiation therapy is exceptional. We report herein the case of a primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma arising at the site of radiotherapy for breast cancer. METHODS/RESULTS A seventy-year-old woman was diagnosed in 2005 with an invasive ductal carcinoma of the left breast, which was treated with surgery, adjuvant chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Three years later she developed several cutaneous nodules on her left breast, followed by similar lesions on her back. Histologic, immunohistochemistry, and molecular findings were consistent with the diagnosis of cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma. Physical examination was otherwise negative, as well as mammography, total body CT, bone marrow biopsy, and Borrelia serology. CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first published case of primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma occurring at the site of radiotherapy. Cutaneous surveillance is proposed from the first year after irradiation in order to detect new primary malignancies, including this rare cutaneous neoplasm.
