Glomangiosarcoma Arising from a Prior Biopsy Site

Glomangiosarcoma Arising from a Prior Biopsy Site

Glomangiosarcoma represents a rare malignant variant of the benign glomus tumor that typically presents as a tender, slowly growing nodule with a predilection for the lower extremities. Unlike their benign counterparts, glomangiosarcomas may display aggressive characteristics such as large size, local invasion, and a tendency to recur after excision. Although wide local excision remains the tre...

Fluid leak from an iliac crest in a biopsy site.

Anesthetic blister induction to identify biopsy site prior to Mohs surgery.

BACKGROUND Wrong-site surgery in dermatology often occurs due to difficulty finding the initial biopsy site prior to Mohs surgery. Patients frequently present for Mohs surgery weeks to months following the initial biopsy site. Visualization of the biopsy site may become difficult at presentation due to healing. OBJECTIVE To investigate the utility of anesthetic blister induction at a su...

MYC Amplification in Angiosarcoma Arising from an Arteriovenous Graft Site

Angiosarcoma arising in association with an arteriovenous graft (AVG) or fistula is a unique clinicopathologic scenario that appears to be gaining recognition in the literature. Among reported cases, none has described high-level MYC gene amplification, a genetic aberration that is increasingly unifying the various clinicopathologic subdivisions of angiosarcoma. We therefore report the MYC gene...
