Four patients with pancoast's syndrome had burning pain in the axilla and abnormal sensation in the intercostobrachial nerve territory. The intercostobrachial nerve is the first component of the brachial plexus to be invaded by lung tumours.

Syringocystadenoma papilliferum is an uncommon benign apocrine gland tumour, mostly of congenital or early childhood onset, affecting head and neck. In addition, nevus sebaceous is commonly associated with this tumor. Here, we document three cases of syringocystadenoma papilliferum with many atypical features, such as the involvement of rare sites (abdomen, axilla and thigh), absence of nevus s...

Background: The aggravating role of Staphylococcus aureus is well known in atopic dermatitis but has not yet been proven in psoriasis. The role of Staphylococcus aureus superantigens is emphasized in the initiation, maintenance and complications of psoriasis. We investigated the frequency of nasal, axillary, and perineal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) in patients with psoriasis and its ...

This study aimed at identifying the anatomic structures which may be responsible for entrapment neuropathies of the median nerve. Thirty upper extremities of 15 formalin fixed adult cadavers were dissected from the axilla to the distal forearm under Zeiss Opmi 9--FC microscope. We encountered seven different anatomic structures that may compress the median nerve. These structures are the brachi...

Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is a safe and accurate minimally invasive method for detecting axillary lymph node (ALN) involvement in the clinically negative axilla thereby reducing morbidity in patients who avoid unnecessary axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). Although current guidelines recommend completion ALND when macro- and micrometastatic diseases are identified by SLNB, the benef...
