FAMILIAL PROGRESSIVE HYPERPIGMENTATION
Alternate names
FAMILIAL PROGRESSIVE HYPERPIGMENTATION Is also known as melanosis universalis hereditaria, universal melanosis, melanosis diffusa congenita
Description
Familial progressive hyperpigmentation is a rare, genetic, skin pigmentation anomaly disorder characterized by irregular patches of hyperpigmented skin which present at birth or in early infancy and increase in size, number and confluence with age. Affected areas of the body include the face, neck, trunk and limbs, as well as the palms, soles, oral mucosa and conjuctiva. No hypogmentation macules are observed and no systemic diseases are associated.

FAMILIAL PROGRESSIVE HYPER- AND HYPOPIGMENTATION
Alternate names
FAMILIAL PROGRESSIVE HYPER- AND HYPOPIGMENTATION Is also known as fph, fphh
Description
Familial progressive hyper- and hypopigmentation is a rare, genetic, skin pigmentation anomaly disorder characterized by progressive, diffuse, partly blotchy, hyperpigmented lesions that are intermixed with multiple café-au-lait spots, hypopigmented maculae and lentigines and are located on the face, neck, trunk and limbs, as well as, frequently, the palms, soles and oral mucosa. Dispigmentation pattern can range from well isolated café-au-lait/hypopigmented patches on a background of normal-appearing skin to confetti-like or mottled appearance.
Most common symptoms of FAMILIAL PROGRESSIVE HYPER- AND HYPOPIGMENTATION
- Hyperhidrosis
- Hypopigmentation of the skin
- Hyperpigmentation of the skin
- Progressive hyperpigmentation

HYPERPIGMENTATION WITH OR WITHOUT HYPOPIGMENTATION, FAMILIAL PROGRESSIVE; FPHH
Alternate names
HYPERPIGMENTATION WITH OR WITHOUT HYPOPIGMENTATION, FAMILIAL PROGRESSIVE; FPHH Is also known as melanosis universalis hereditaria, hyperpigmentation, familial progressive, 2, formerly, muh, fph2, formerly
Description
Familial progressive hyperpigmentation with or without hypopigmentation (FPHH) is characterized by diffuse hyperpigmentation of variable intensity sometimes associated with cafe-au-lait macules and larger hypopigmented ash-leaf macules. These features, which involve the face, neck, trunk, and limbs, are seen at birth or develop early in infancy (summary by Wang et al., 2009 and Amyere et al., 2011).Also see familial progressive hyperpigmentation (FPH1 ).
Most common symptoms of HYPERPIGMENTATION WITH OR WITHOUT HYPOPIGMENTATION, FAMILIAL PROGRESSIVE; FPHH
- Intellectual disability
- Growth delay
- Neoplasm
- Hyperkeratosis
- Hypopigmentation of the skin

NON-SEMINOMATOUS GERM CELL TUMOR OF TESTIS
Alternate names
NON-SEMINOMATOUS GERM CELL TUMOR OF TESTIS Is also known as testicular non seminomatous germ cell tumor, non-dysgerminomatous germ cell tumor of testis, testicular non-dysgerminomatous germ cell tumor
Description
Testicular non seminomatous germ cell tumor describes a group of testicular germ cell tumors (see this term) occurring in the third decade of life (mean age: 25 years) with a usually painless unilateral mass in the scrotum or in some cases with gynaecomastia and/or back and flack pain and characterized by a more aggressive clinical course than testicular seminomatous germ cell tumors (see this term) with rapid involvement of blood vessels and a poorer prognosis. Histologically, they can be either undifferentiated (embryonal carcinoma), differentiated (teratoma, yolk sac tumor, choriocarcinoma), or can consist of a mixture of seminomatous and nonseminomatous components.
