The nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn is a congenital benign hamartoma of the skin that occurs more frequently in the scalp, but can also arise in the face. Due to its potential for malignization, exeresis is often required. Lesions located in the scalp are challenging to surgeons because of the anatomical characteristics of this body site, namely scarcity and inelasticity of the adjacent skin. In the present report, the authors describe a case of excision of a nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn located in the scalp, using a bilateral rotation flap – a very straightforward and versatile technique, excellent for reconstructing difficult topographies such as the scalp – for the closure of the surgical wound.

The sebaceous nevus of Jadassohn is a congenital hamartoma that may develop into a malignant cutaneous neoplasia. Photodynamic therapy is used to treat actinic keratoses and superficial or nodular basal cell carcinomas, and the cutaneous field cancerization can be observed using the Wood's lamp during the performance of the technique. This article describes a case of photodynamic therapy used in the treatment of a basal cell carcinoma, which developed on a sebaceous nevus, where the field cancerization was demonstrated through the use of Wood's lamp. The procedure is a non-surgical alternative for the treatment of the basal cell carcinoma, with excellent aesthetic outcome. The patient is on clinical follow-up, with absence of recurrence of the neoplasia 18 months after the treatment.

Described by Jadassohn and also known as organoid nevus, nevus sebaceous is considered a hamartoma that exhibits follicular, sebaceous, eccrine and apocrine malformations of varying degrees. Between 10% and 30% of patients with sebaceous nevi of Jadassohn are at risk of developing cutaneous or adnexal neoplasia during adulthood. The authors describe the case of a patient with nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn associated with multiple tumors (benign and malignant) of different strains, highlighting the importance of the dermatologist physician’s knowing this entity and how to perform an examination of the scalp.

The sebaceous nevus of Jadassohn is a benign neoplasia, usually present at birth. It usually arises as a small yellowish and oval plaque in the scalp and face, with large lesions being uncommon. The authors report a case of an atypical and exuberant sebaceous nevus of Jadassohn, located in the frontal-parietal-occipital region of a male child, associated with alopecia.

Nevus sebaceous of Jadassohn is a congenital skin hamartoma often located on the face and scalp. A small percentage of these tumors evolve into malignant lesions, including basal cell carcinoma. We report a case of an elderly patient with nevus sebaceous since early childhood that evolved with a malignant transformation from the lesion to basal cell carcinoma. The treatment performed was surgical excision using Mohs surgery.

O queratoacantoma (QA), apesar de frequente na prática diária, é um tumor que gera questionamentos. O aspecto mais intrigante associa-se à sua posição no limite entre malignidade e benignidade. A abordagem do tumor, bem como sua classificação, é controversa. Na definição da conduta, é importante levar em conta o potencial de transformação para carcinoma espinocelular. Desse modo, a excisão cirúrgica é a terapia de escolha, sempre que possível. Algumas situações merecem atenção adicional, como a imunossupressão associada. Neste artigo, relatamos um caso de QA gigante em um paciente com síndrome da imunodeficiência adquirida tratado com cirurgia micrográfica de Mohs.

Sarcomas são neoplasias mesenquimais malignas, raras, que acometem, principalmente, crianças e adolescentes. O rabdomiossarcoma, subtipo oriundo da musculatura esquelética, é condição incomum em adultos, acometendo sítios de localização não habitual, crescimento rápido e de difícil tratamento. Apresenta-se caso de adulto jovem com nodulação em lóbulo auricular esquerdo, cuja análise histopatológica e imuno-histoquímica confirmou tratar-se de rabdomiossarcoma alveolar, o qual foi conduzido em conjunto com a Oncologia.
