Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cutaneous adnexal tumors (ATs) enclose a large group of benign and malignant tumors, deriving from the hair follicle, sebaceous glands, eccrine, or apocrine glands. Because of the extensive overlap in clinical features of cutaneous adnexal tumors, biopsy is essential for diagnosis. Immunohistochemical stains may be useful for the diagnosis of tumors with ambiguous histopathologic features. The goal of this Special Issue entitled “Skin and Cutaneous Adnexal Tumors: Diagnosis and Management” is to review the clinical and histopathological features, diagnosis, and management of cutaneous adnexal tumors and related syndromes. Contributions to the clinical and histopathological diagnosis and management of these tumors are welcome. Furthermore, articles related to syndromes associated with cutaneous adnexal tumors such as Brooke–Spiegler syndrome, Cowden syndrome, Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome, Muir–Torre syndrome, and familial cylindromatosis are also invited to be submitted for consideration for publication.
