   Sammanfattning : Background: Lichen planus is a chronic inflammation of skin and mucosa with unknown cause. Oral Lichen Planus, OLP, affects around 2% of the population. Autoimmunity has been suggested as a possible cause as the disease has autoimmune features such as female predominance, cyclic nature and cytotoxic T-cell infiltrate. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : The aim of these studies was to investigate the efficacy, complications and the long term results after laser treatment of lichen sclerosus et atrophicus and of squamous cell carcinoma of the penis.Patients and Methods: Paper I: In a prospective study from 1985-1991, 62 men with histologically verified lichen sclerosus et atrophicus were given carbon dioxide (CO2) laser treatment following the failure of local corticosteroid treatment.

4. 3. Female genital Graft-versus-Host Disease - Diagnosis, Treatment, Incidence, Long-term Prevalence, and Impact on Androgen Hormones and Sexual Function

   Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT BACKGROUND. Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD) is the major cause of morbidity after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT), and contributes to non-relapse mortality. Caused by donor cells, cGvHD is a multi-organ syndrome involving tissue inflammation and fibrosis. AIMS. LÄS MER

5. 4. Penile Intraepithelial Neoplasia and Penile Cancer. Risk Factors and Treatment

   Författare :Sinja Kristiansen; Dermatologi; []

   Sammanfattning : AbstractPenile cancer and its precursor, penile intraepithelial neoplasia (PeIN), are rare malignancies. Data on risk factors, incidence, and treatment of PeIN is scarce. The prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) varies substantially between studies of penile cancer. LÄS MER

7. 5. Diagnostic aspects of skin cancer and lichen sclerosus studied with laser scanning microscopy
