- Abstract
To date, there is no consensus on the treatment of actinic keratosis (AK). Current national and international guidelines state no clear recommendations for the best choice of therapy. To determine the most effective treatment in terms of lesion reduction, costs and patient satisfaction topical treatment with 0.015% ingenol mebutate gel, 5% 5-fluorouracil cream, 5% imiquimod cream and photodynamic therapy were compared in a prospective randomized controlled multi-centre study. Patients older than 18 years with a Fitzpatrick skintype I-IV, with 5 AK’s Olsen class I-III in an area of minimal 25 cm2 and maximal 100 cm2 , localized in the head and neck area were included in the study. In total 624 were included in the Dermatology departments of the Maastricht University Medical Centre, Catharina hospital Eindhoven, Zuyderland Medical Centre Heerlen and VieCuri Medical Centre Venlo/Venray. Primary outcome measure is treatment success, defined as the proportion of participants with ≥ 75% reduction of the number of AK lesions in the treatment area at 12 months post final treatment compared to baseline. Secondary outcome is treatment success at 3 months post final treatment, cost-effectiveness, side effects, patient satisfaction, cosmetic outcome and treatment compliance.

- Abstract
Basal cell nevus syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder. The most common underlying genetic cause is a mutation in de PTCH1 gene. Mutations in PTCH2 or SUFU gene are less common. In this case a 28 years old patient with basal cell nevus syndrome with a SUFU mutation is described. Patients with a SUFU mutation have an increased risk of developing a medulloblastoma at childhood. Due to the long-term side effects of radiation therapy, regular neurological assesment is recommended. Dermatologic examination was recommended yearly or every six months after developing the first basal cell carcinoma. Odontogenic keratocysts have not been described previously in patients with a SUFU mutation. For this reason, annual screening for jaw cysts is not indicated.

- Abstract
Keratoacanthoma is a common cutaneous tumor, of which the benign or malignant potential remains controversial. Keratoacanthoma is often considered as a benign skin tumor, because metastases rarely occur. However, metastases of a keratoacanthoma are reported in literature. Furthermore, development of squamous cell carcinoma in keratoacanthoma is also reported. Besides this, it can histopathologically be difficult or even impossible to distinguish between a well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma and keratoacanthoma. These factors lead to complex therapeutical decisions, that can have large implications for the patient. In this report we present a case of an incompletely excised moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the left cheek (infraorbital), which was initially diagnosed as keratoacanthoma at the referring hospital. The patient was referred to our multidisciplinary head and neck team. It was decided to perform a re-resection, using a so-called ‘Slow Mohs’-procedure. This re-resection appeared to be incomplete and showed extensive perineural growth. This perineural growth extended along the infraorbital/maxillary nerve via the foramen rotundum, into the sinus cavernosus. This made radical surgical resection impossible. It was decided to treat the patient with adjuvant radiotherapy. This case emphasizes not only the controversy surrounding the benign or malignant nature of a keratoacanthoma and the implications for the patient, but also the importance of an adequate multidisciplinary approach in such complex cases.

integumentary system - Abstract
Introduction To date, the diagnosis and subtype of basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is verified by histopathology by means of a skin biopsy. However, non-invasive diagnostic strategies such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) enable detailed examination of skin tissue architecture and may be used to identify BCC. In this study, the diagnostic accuracy and level of confidence in detection and subtyping of BCC by OCT was evaluated. Materials & methods In this prospective observational study, OCT imaging was used for all lesions suspected for non-melanoma skin cancer or pre-malignancy that were biopsied to confirm the diagnosis at our outpatient Dermatology clinic. Decisions on treatment were guided by clinical examination and biopsy conform standard care. The OCT images were assessed by two investigators, blinded to the histological diagnosis. Diagnostic accuracy and certainty of clinical diagnosis alone was compared to the diagnostic accuracy and certainty of the combination of clinical diagnosis and OCT imaging, using histopathological diagnosis of the biopsy specimen as the gold standard. Aim of the study The aim of the study is to investigate the diagnostic value of OCT in addition to clinical examination for the detection and subtyping of BCC. Diagnostic parameters such as the sensitivity, specificity, positive- and negative predictive value were evaluated.

- Abstract
Basal cell nevus syndrome is a rare, autosomal dominant disorder, predominantly caused by a mutation in the PTCH1 gene. As basal cell carcinomas and keratocysts are the most common abnormalities, dermatologists, orofacial maxillary surgeons, and dentists play a key role in patient care. From the age of 8, screening for odontogenic keratocysts with an orthopantomogram or MRI is recommended every other year. The intensity increases to annual screening after the development of the first odontogenic keratocyst. If BCNS is caused by an underlying SUFU mutation, screening is not indicated since there are no reports of odontogenic keratocyst in these patients to date. Radiation exposure by, for example, computed tomography, should be minimized as it induces new BCCs. Regular follow-up by a dermatologist for early diagnosis and treatment of (multiple) BCC's is recommended for life.

- Abstract
Objective: To investigate whether Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) in accordance with the indications in the revised guideline on basal cell carcinoma (BCC) more often leads to complete treatment than conventional excision (CE) and whether the costs are comparable, and to analyse whether this also applies to all primary BCC of the face., Design: Retrospective analysis., Method: We gathered data on 3374 MMS procedures and calculated per localisation, subtype and size: the percentage of CE that would have been incomplete after applying the recommended surgical margin; the surgical margin necessary to achieve complete excision in > 90% of cases; the final defect after CE and after MMS; the cost of MMS and the cost of CE with postponed reconstruction or, in the case of incomplete CE, subsequent MMS., Results: For the new MMS indications we can show that using MMS seems to prevent incomplete CE in 12-45% of cases. CE will also lead to incomplete excision in ≥ 10% of cases in most subgroups of primary facial BCC, with the exception of some small superficial or nodular BCCs in the H-zone. The final defect was always smaller after MMS than after CE. MMS can be used with comparable costs for primary BCCs > 5 mm in the H-zone and > 20 mm elsewhere in the face., Conclusion: The surgical margins recommended in the guidelines are inadequate to achieve complete excision rates in > 90% of facial CEs. MMS is an efficient alternative for CE for primary BCCs > 5 mm in the H-zone and > 20 mm elsewhere in the face.

- Abstract
The development of the hedgehog pathway inhibitor vismodegib provides a new treatment option for metastasised and locally advanced basal cell carcinoma in which surgical excision or radiotherapy is contraindicated. Only a fraction of patients with basal cell carcinoma are eligible for this therapy, but it is effective in the majority of those who do receive vismodegib. However, development of tumour resistance is quite common and adverse events frequently lead to discontinuation of therapy. Intermittent treatment or combination therapy could reduce the occurrence of tumour resistance and diminish toxicity. We present three patients who were successfully treated with vismodegib: a 73-year-old man with locally advanced basal cell carcinoma, an 82-year-old man with basal cell carcinoma that had metastasised to the lungs, and a 42-year-old man with Gorlin syndrome.

- Abstract
Background: Generally basal cell carcinoma can be simply and curatively treated. However, large and long-standing tumours can be locally very destructive and in rare cases even metastasize. Hedgehog pathway inhibitors such as vismodegib constitute a new and promising therapy for metastatic or locally advanced basal cell carcinoma., Case Description: We describe a patient with metastasized basal cell carcinoma and basal cell nevus syndrome who, in the context of a study, was successfully treated with vismodegib. The main undesirable effects in our patient were muscle cramps, loss of taste, nausea and hair loss., Conclusion: Basal cell carcinoma is potentially a locally destructive skin tumour that only very rarely metastasizes. Hedgehog pathway inhibitors such as vismodegib can be administered in a selected group of patients with basal cell carcinoma.

- Abstract
We present a 49-year-old man seen at the dermatology outpatient department with a 3-year history of painful swollen digits of hands and feet. On enquiry he reported dysuria. On examination we saw extensive swelling of the digits, keratosis of the nails, and some psoriasiform skin lesions on the soles of the feet. The differential diagnosis included acrodermatitis continua suppurativa, reactive arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. Radiographic imaging revealed the presence of arthritis. Testing proved negative for rheumatoid factor and positive for HLA-B27 making spondyloarthropathy the most likely diagnosis, either in the form of reactive arthritis or psoriatic arthritis. The patient was treated with combination therapy of doxycycline, methotrexate and folic acid. Because of insufficient response to therapy, the methotrexate dose was raised and eventually etanercept was added. During the last visit to the outpatient clinic, the patient still showed insufficient response to therapy.
