Linear morphea can lead to significant morbidity and functional disability in young patients. Methotrexate (MTX), with or without a short initiation prednisone therapy, has been used documented as well-tolerated, effective treatment regimen.To evaluate the long-term efficacy of MTX therapy patients linear morphea.A retrospective chart review was performed for pediatric adult evaluated Dermatology Clinic at Wake Forest University School Medicine treated MTX.Seventeen met inclusion criteria...
The subunit principle in nasal reconstruction proposed the concept of reconstructing specific topographic subunits that were identified as dorsum, tip, columella, paired alae, sidewalls, and soft triangles. In patients with more than 50% loss, removing remaining portion entire may yield better results. placement incisions along borders minimizes scar lines. Furthermore, trapdoor contraction occurs, restored bulges a way mimics normal contour dorsum or ala. Two cases followed this important...
Leprosy's progression and its maintained endemic status, despite the availability of effective treatments, are not fully understood recent studies have highlighted possibility involved Mycobacterium leprae ambient reservoirs. Wild armadillos can carry leprosy and, because their meat is eaten by humans, development disease among armadillo consumers has been investigated. This study evaluated frequency intake patients as well age gender matched controls with other skin diseases from a...
Staged retroauricular flap is a great option for full-thickness defects along the helical rim and antihelix. Donor site consists of posterior ear, postauricular sulcus mastoid area. The advantages this include hidden donor scar, tissue similarity rich vascularity. We present case collision tumor on left helix treated with Mohs micrographic surgery resulting defect repaired staged flap. This an effective technique repair relatively little operative morbidity. High esthetic functional results...
Abstract Background Artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLMs) transform how patients inform themselves. LLMs offer potential as educational tools, but their quality depends upon the information generated. Current literature examining AI an informational tool in dermatology has been limited evaluating AI's multifaceted roles diversity of opinions. Here, we evaluate a patient‐educational for Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) out clinic utilizing international expert panel....
The treatment of basal cell carcinoma depends on its histological subtype. Therefore, a biopsy should be performed before definitive treatment. However, as the is only sample tumor, it does not always shows every subtype present in neoplasm. Few studies have compared findings biopsies with Mohs micrographic surgery. By evaluating totality peripheral margins, addition to sampling large tumor areas, this technique provides more representative amount tissue than preoperative biopsy. a)...
There are restrictions associated with the use of isotretinoin because its effects on lipid profile. The records ninety patients treated this medication were reviewed to identify factors that would predispose these abnormalities. A significant increase in cholesterol and triglyceride levels occurred. Patients whom increased more likely be female, although difference was not present at baseline. Women persistent acne may constitute a risk population for side effects.
The ear is a region that has high prevalence of cutaneous carcinomas and several guidelines indicate Mohs micrographic surgery as the first-choice treatment in such cases. Although technique allows maximum preservation healthy tissue, many auricular surgical wounds constitute challenge due to peculiar local anatomy, with evident curves reliefs. Auricular reconstruction should prioritize function before aesthetics, but without leaving latter aside, since postoperative distortions can have...
The paramedian forehead flap is a great option for restoration of complex nasal defects. For full-thickness defects, it may be used alone or in combination with other methods. We present patient basal cell carcinoma on the distal nose treated by Mohs micrographic surgery, and resulting defect repaired combined hinge flap. optimal results flap, adequate surgical planning, orientation meticulous technique are imperative.
Wet wrap dressings provide an ancillary treatment option for erythrodermic patients. therapy consists of the application topical corticosteroids on all affected surfaces, followed by a warm moist cotton cloth with dry top. The advantages this procedure include its safety, as well prompt and marked improvement erythroderma. For psoriasis, wet can serve important rescue option. purpose study is to report case series seven patients psoriasis that responded promptly prior initiation systemic treatment.
Advancement flaps are important reconstructive options after skin cancer removal on the nose. Donor areas vary according to defect location and size. The objective of this article is illustrate versatility advancement in nasal reconstruction. Five patients were selected. All cases treated with Mohs' micrographic surgery prior reconstruction ensure that 100% surgical margins free cancer. can be used repair a wide variety defects nose good matching color, texture, thickness. With careful...
A 40-year-old woman presented with an 8-year history of a growing erythematous plaque on the left lower eyelid; physical examination revealed single involving eyelid, including its border, and eyelashes were absent. What is your diagnosis?
