Fibrous hamartoma of infancy (FHI) is a rare benign lesion occurring in the first 2 years of life, particularly in males. Most lesions present as a painless subcutaneous mass. Although the lesion is not distinctive clinically, it has a characteristic microscopic appearance. The lesion histologically consists of three different tissue elements: disorderly collagenous fibrous tissue, myxoid mesenchymal tissue and islands of mature adipocytes. A few cases have overlying skin changes, including alteration in pigmentation, eccrine gland hyperplasia, and increased hair. A 6-month-old male infant had a 6x4 cm sized asymptomatic mass on the right lower back. Multiple coarse hairs were present on the surface. Histopathologic findings showed the typical features of FHI, that is well defined intersecting fibrous trabeculae, small immature cells within loosely textured areas, and mature adipose areas in the lower dermis and subcutaneous layer. Immunohistochemically, vimentin was present in both the trabecular and loosely textured areas, but desmin was not present in any of the components. We report a case of FHI on the right lower back with overlying hypertrichosis in a 6-month-old male patient.

Radiogenomics or imaging genomics is a novel omics strategy of associating imaging data with genetic information, which has the potential to advance personalized medicine. Imaging features extracted from PET or PET/CT enable assessment of in vivo functional and physiological activity and provide comprehensive tumor information non-invasively. However, PET features are considered secondary to features on conventional imaging, and there has not yet been a review of the radiogenomic approach using PET features. This review article summarizes the current state of PET-based radiogenomic research for cancer, which discusses some of its limitations and directions for future study.

The rate of malignant transformation in porokeratosis (PK) lesions is approximately 7.5%, and linear PK demonstrates the highest rate of malignancy. An 83-year-old woman presented with a rapidly enlarging mass on her left arm. Variably sized erythematous scaly patches were scattered across the left half of her trunk and arm. Additionally, generalized variably sized brownish annular patches with a hyperkeratotic outer ring were observed on her face, trunk and bilateral arms. A skin biopsy was performed on 3 lesions-a yellowish to erythematous appearing mass, an erythematous scaly patch, and a brownish annular patch. Histopathological evaluation of these 3 lesions revealed squamous cell carcinoma, actinic keratosis, and PK, respectively. The final diagnosis was disseminated superficial PK with linear PK on the left side of the body, and actinic keratosis and squamous cell carcinoma confined to the linear PK lesions. We report a case which represents the progressive and stepwise malignant transformation of PK into squamous cell carcinoma.

Behcet's disease is a multisystem inflammatory disorder with a chronic relapsing course. It is considered a nonspecific systemic vasculitis involving both, venous and arterial circulation. Although lower extremity vein thrombosis (LEVT) is one of the most common manifestations of vascular involvement, a few cases are reported in the literature and to our knowledge, and only 2 cases were reported in Korea. We report a case of a 40-year-old Korean man with localized erythematous macules and patches on both lower extremities with a marked painful swelling on the right leg. The patient reported a history of similar lesions 10 years prior to presentation and also a history of recurrent aphthous oral ulcerations. Based on phlebographic findings of old LEVT in the right femoral vein, the patient was diagnosed with Behcet's disease associated with LEVT.
