    Abstract Connective tissue nevus is a hamartoma composed of excess amounts of one or several components of the dermis, such as collagen, elastin, and proteoglycans. This report introduces a 14-year-old girl with grouped flesh color papules and skin color nodules distributed unilaterally with a dermatomal pattern. These lesions involved more than one segment. Histopathology is the gold standard for diagnosing collagenoma and mucinous nevus. We reported the first case of mucinous nevus with multiple collagenoma that shows the specific clinical features.

    Abstract Background: Acne is a dermatologic condition with a high burden in terms of psychosocial consequences as a result of scars remaining on the skin. Its effects are severe in adolescence and finding treatments with short therapy courses, superior results, and fewer adverse effects are of high importance. Materials and Methods: We included 30 individuals with acne vulgaris scars in Al-Zahra academic training hospital from June 2018 to Jan 2019. Each individual received both fractional CO2 and fractional Er:YAG lasers on right and left sides of the face, respectively. Three sessions of laser treatment were applied to each side with one-month intervals. Results were evaluated by patients according to subjective satisfaction and physicians' assessment and photo evaluation by two blinded dermatologists. Improvement was graded by a quartile grading scale: less than 25%: mild, 25% to 50%: moderate, 51% to 75%: good, and 76% to 100%: excellent response. Assessments were obtained at baseline and one month after the last visit. Results: Based on subjective satisfaction (p < 0.05) and physicians' assessment (p < 0.01), fractional CO2 laser was significantly more effective than Erbium:YAG laser. Also, Post-treatment side effects were mild and transient in both groups. Conclusion: Laser therapies are common in the treatment of scars and each modality has special advantages and disadvantages. Choosing among them should be based on various criteria. Fractional CO2 lasers have been revealed favorable results in most reports. Large comprehensive trials could help experts in choosing among alternatives for different subgroups.

    Abstract Striae alba, as an unsettling skin complication, has the potential to threaten the physical appearance and psychological health of individuals. So far, dermatologists' endeavors have been futile in finding an ideal treatment. This study evaluated microneedling as a novel treatment modality for striae alba scars. Microneedling was implemented in 1-3 sessions in 2-week intervals among patients with striae alba lesions. The lesions were photographed before and 3 months after the treatment, while all side effects were recorded. Two non-involved dermatologists and a patient self-report based on a visual analog score scale were utilized to evaluate the clinical improvement of striae scars. The complication rate among the 32 patients was 25%, which consisted of seven (21.9%) cases of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and one case (3.1%) of skin infection. The average improvement score among the patients in our study based on their self-report was 5.3 ± 1.3. (Range 4-8), while based on physician evaluation was 5.6 ± 1.2 (range 3.5-8). There was a significant association between lower age and higher self-report scores. Also, the improvement of lesions was more significant in skin type 3 compared to 2, based on physician assessment. In this study, MN was effective in ameliorating SA scars and was observed to induce better clinical satisfaction in younger patients and breast lesions. The studies concerning the use of MN in treating SA have yielded much attention lately, and they have denoted the relatively low cost of MN, its capability to be utilized over vast treatment areas, and its safety in that regard. Further research regarding the comparison of MN's efficacy in solo use versus implementing it as an adjuvant modality should be carried out.

    Abstract Objectives: Melasma is a chronic acquired condition characterized by grayish-brown macules and patches with a distinct border on the face. Although various treatments methods have been suggested for treating melasma, none has been completely successful. The aim of the study was to compare the efficiency of erbium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet (Er:YAG) laser and 4% hydroquinone (HQ) with the effects of intradermal tranexamic acid (TA) and 4% HQ for the treatment of refractory melasma.
    Methods: The study included 31 female patients with refractory melasma. The left or right side of the patient's face was chosen randomly to receive laser therapy with topical HQ on the one side (i.e. the laser side) and intradermal injection of TA plus topical HQ on the other side (i.e. the mesotherapy side). Digital photography was performed at baseline, at the end of the treatment, and three months after the treatment as follow-up. Two independent dermatologists evaluated the modified Melasma Area and Severity Index (mMASI) score according to the pictures. Overall, 27 patients completed the study and went through the clinical evaluation.
    Results: Treatment using HQ in combination with either Er:YAG laser therapy or intradermal injection of TA significantly improved the hemi-mMASI and resulted in higher patient satisfaction. While the improvement was not significantly different between the two regiments after the treatment and upon follow up and both were equally efficient in the treatment of refractory melasma (
    Conclusion: This study confirmed the comparable efficacy of TA plus topical HQ versus Er:YAG laser plus topical HQ for the treatment of refractory melasma. Both groups improved significantly and no subject left the treatment because of adverse effects.

    Abstract Background: Patients admitted in especial units such as coronary care unit (CCU) require intensive care for different aspects including skin problems. Here in this report we aimed to perform a survey on different skin lesions in patients admitted in CCU by the time of admission and when discharging. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we had a survey on 200 patients admitted in CCU in AL-Zahra hospital, Isfahan. A dermatologist observed and examined each patients for any skin lesions by the time of admission and when discharging from CCU. Results: Here we showed that 15 percent of patients admitted in CCU have at least one skin lesion and also we indicated that seborrhea dermatitis and then rosacea have the most prevalence by the time of admission in CCU. Other skin lesions were acute skin failure. We also showed that prevalence of bed sore and pressure sores increased amazingly during admission. Conclusion: Rosacea, seborrhea dermatitis and drug allergic reactions after pressure sores are the most frequent skin lesions in CCU and there might be an association between rosacea and cardiovascular diseases.

    Abstract Objective: This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of topical timolol in treating facial angiofibromas (FAs) in pediatric patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC).
    Methods: A prospective clinical trial was conducted involving 15 children diagnosed with TSC and presenting with FAs. The participants were administered topical timolol gel 0.5% twice daily. Prior to the intervention, the severity of FAs in each patient was evaluated using the FA severity index (FASI), which assessed erythema, size, and extent of lesions. Clinical response was assessed at weeks 2 and 4 during the intervention period as well as 1 month after discontinuation of treatment.
    Findings: Four weeks after discontinuing topical timolol 0.5%, statistically significant reductions were observed in the mean FASI score, erythema, size, and extent of lesions (
    Conclusion: Topical timolol 0.5% represents a cost-effective and readily available treatment option for pediatric patients with FAs associated with tuberous sclerosis.
