Turbinate reduction through submucosal diathermy during primary rhinoseptoplasty did not improve short-term general and specific quality-of-life outcomes and acoustic rhinometry recordings. The role of turbinate reduction in sparing chronic corticosteroid use should be confirmed in long-term follow-up studies.

The understanding of the pathophysiology of hirsutism in PCOS, as well as classifying its severity and the distress it causes to each patient is essential to choose the proper treatment. The presence of metabolic comorbidities and menstrual disturbances will also guide the individualized management of hirsutism in women with PCOS.

Most children in the study developed mild acute laryngeal lesions caused by endotracheal intubation, which improved in a few days after extubation.

Background: Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is an uncommon mesenchymal tumor of intermediate malignancy. Its rarity and slow progression often imply a delayed diagnosis. There are few previous reports of dermoscopic features of DFSP and most are single case descriptions. Objectives: To report 2 cases of DFSP and their dermoscopic features, as well as conduct a review of all previous cases published addressing the use of dermoscopy in this tumor. Methods: We conducted a literature search for all dermoscopic cases of DFSP. In addition, we presented 2 additional cases and compared them to the earlier findings. Results: We summarized the main dermoscopic findings of DFSP based on analysis from 32 patients. The most common features of this tumor are the presence of vessels (81%), followed by a pigmented network (78%) and a pinkish background (66%). Conclusions: DFSP can mimic benign lesions and the diagnosis may be challenging. Dermoscopy is an important tool that may enhance clinical suspicion toward the diagnosis of DFSP.
