ABSTRACT Rapid changes in size and color at the site of a preexisting nevus may be concerning to both patients and medical providers. Distinguishment of benign versus malignant changes may be difficult, especially when there is concern for malignancy and in cases of nonspecific clinical presentation. The current case illustrates a common cause of yellowish-tan papules and plaques. This case also highlights clinical methods to distinguish this condition from similarly appearing presentations, as recognition and appropriate treatment of this condition using noninvasive techniques may prevent further invasive workup.

ABSTRACT Lentigo maligna (LM) is a melanocytic neoplasm that occurs on chronically sun-exposed skin commonly affecting middle-aged and elderly patients, which can progress to LM melanoma if left untreated or misdiagnosed. LM can be confused with other dermatologic conditions such as pigmented actinic keratosis, solar lentigo, and seborrheic keratosis. Therefore, clinicians should know the various clinical features that can distinguish LM from other differential diagnoses. Although multiple treatment modalities exist for LM, surgical excision remains the gold standard for the treatment of LM and results in an excellent prognosis for treated patients. This article discusses the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of LM so that dermatology nurses are better prepared to care for patients with LM.

Introduction Vitiligo is an acquired pigmentary disorder, which is usually progressive and irreversible if left untreated. Structured databases such as registries are required to continuously collect standard data about patients with the same disease. Objectives This study aimed to design and implement a vitiligo registry and evaluate its usability in Iran. Methodology This research was conducted in four stages: determining the minimum data set required for the registry, creating a conceptual model using unified modeling language diagrams and Sparx Enterprise Architect software, implementing the registry in the PhpStorm programming environment, and evaluating the software usability based on the responses of 17 end users to a questionnaire. Results The required data items, consisting of 127 items in eight categories, were approved by the experts and used to design the vitiligo registry. Then, the software was designed and implemented. In the assessment stage, the software received a 89.5% approval rate from its users. Conclusion Developing a vitiligo registry with high usability as well as making decisions based on the registry data can improve understanding of the disease and facilitate research in this field. As a result, high-quality services could be provided to patients nationwide.

ABSTRACT Cutaneous manifestations of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are commonly seen in clinical practice. Almost every person living with HIV (PLWH) will present with a dermatological complaint at some point during their care. Compared with people living without HIV, PLWHs have a greater likelihood of skin eruptions because of dysregulation of the skin immune system or drug reactions. This article reviews the most common dermatological conditions in PLWHs, as well as how they typically present in clinical practice, and discusses current evidence for treatment.
