RESUMO
This report focuses on sebaceous skin tumors, specifically sebaceous adenoma, sebaceoma, and sebaceous carcinoma, along with their association with Muir-Torre syndrome (MTS). A clinical case of a 25-year-old male with a suspected sebaceous neoplasm based on dermoscopy appearance is presented. The histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis and surgical management resulted in successful treatment. The report highlights the importance of considering differential diagnoses and utilizing dermoscopy for accurate evaluation of these rare skin tumors.
RESUMO
The antibody response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) as well as the host immune response after vaccination and viral infection have shown to be highly heterogeneous. This is a case series study analysing humoral immune response and vaccination side effects after two doses of a BNT162b2 mRNA among healthcare workers (HCWs) in Mexico. All participants were scheduled for their two doses of mRNA BNT162b2 vaccine and provided information through a questionnaire: demographic characteristics, antibody serum titres and vaccination-related side effects. Blood samples were obtained for serology testing after the first and second doses of vaccine. No serious adverse effects due to vaccination were reported; nonetheless, non-medical HCWs reported more side effects after the second dose. The previous infection with SARS-CoV-2 boosted immune response after receiving the first vaccination (roughly 30 times higher than those without previous infection); nonetheless, after the second dose, the immune response did not show a higher titre as might be expected.
