Annular Lichen Planus with Central Clearing

Annular lichen planus is an uncommon clinical variant of lichen planus. Characteristics include an annular configuration associated with a narrow rim of erythema and inflammation and a depressed center. There is a tendency toward central clearing. We present an illustrative case of annular lichen planus in an 82-year-old woma

The Seventeenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: Complete Release of MaNGA, MaStar and APOGEE-2 Data

This paper documents the seventeenth data release (DR17) from the Sloan Digital Sky Surveys; the fifth and final release from the fourth phase (SDSS-IV). DR17 contains the complete release of the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory (MaNGA) survey, which reached its goal of surveying over 10,000 nearby galaxies. The complete release of the MaNGA Stellar Library (MaStar) accompanies this data, providing observations of almost 30,000 stars through the MaNGA instrument during bright time. DR17 also contains the complete release of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment 2 (APOGEE-2) survey which publicly releases infra-red spectra of over 650,000 stars. The main sample from the Extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS), as well as the sub-survey Time Domain Spectroscopic Survey (TDSS) data were fully released in DR16. New single-fiber optical spectroscopy released in DR17 is from the SPectroscipic IDentification of ERosita Survey (SPIDERS) sub-survey and the eBOSS-RM program. Along with the primary data sets, DR17 includes 25 new or updated Value Added Catalogs (VACs). This paper concludes the release of SDSS-IV survey data. SDSS continues into its fifth phase with observations already underway for the Milky Way Mapper (MWM), Local Volume Mapper (LVM) and Black Hole Mapper (BHM) surveys

Oral involvement of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma

Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common cutaneous T cell lymphoma that involves the oral mucosal. The manifestation of lesions within the oralcavity generally correlates with a poor prognosis. Management of MF includes skin directed therapies and localized radiation treatment, with systemicbiologic therapies and chemotherapy used for more advanced stages. The clinical and histologic features of MF in a patient with oral disease are reviewed

Persistent perpendicular pigmentation: a peculiar but specific type of persistent nevus

Persistent nevi are commonly encountered in clinical and dermatopathology practice. Although they may mimic melanoma on clinical presentation as well as microscopic review, they behave in a benign fashion and are not associated with more aggressive behavior than the original nevus. Persistent nevi may exhibit asymmetry and irregular features that prompt concern for melanoma. However, the relative circumscription and restriction of pigment to the surgical scar provides a valuable clue to diagnosis. Some persistent nevi may have a linear pattern when they are confined to a widening scar. In this situation, the pigment spreads along the lines of skin tension (Langer lines). This unique pattern can be easily identified and should be a reassuring finding. We present a case of persistent nevus with a striking perpendicular pigmentation confined to the scar; the clinical and histologic features of persistent nevi are reviewed
