Radical ablative surgery is the gold standard treatment of head skin cancer. The authors expose their experience with a new artificial dermis (Pelnac®), analyzing retrospectively overall morbidity and aesthetic outcomes. 16 consecutive patients underwent two surgical procedures under local anesthesia. first involved tumor removal application ADM. In second, exposed tissue was covered split-thickness graft. On follow-up (6 months), recurrences, quality scars (using Vancouver Scar Scale),...
The authors present a "four-step" integrated surgical protocol to treat rare case of multiple giant eccrine spiradenoma (ES) the head and neck in young patient. An 18-year-old female patient presented with swellings regions. had severe psychological trauma negative impact on her social life. Physical examination revealed papulo-nodular measuring between 5 cm × 8 up 10 20 size cerebriform aspect soft consistency. Major lesions were located scalp, frontal area, neck, occipitotemporal,...
In the context of biointeractive dressings used for enhancing wound healing, use stromal vascular fraction (SVF) or adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) hereof derived has not been fully exploited yet. Noncultured SVF, a heterogeneous mesenchymal population cells, is attractive in field dermal regeneration because it can be instantaneously obtained, avoids genomic alterations, and comparatively safer than cultured ASCs. Integra® Dermal Regeneration Template (DRT) was sprinkled with ASCs...
Abstract Background Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) comprises a heterogeneous group of rare genetic diseases associated with skin blistering caused by minimal trauma. A major and common EB subtype, recessive dystrophic (RDEB), is characterized altered wound healing, inflammatory dysbalance fibrotic changes reduced to absent collagen VII. Because its exposed position continued use in daily activities, the hand constantly at risk microtrauma therefore one organs most affected disease highly...
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to present our new technique immediate breast reconstruction with prepectoral Polyuretane (PU) Implants, covered an autologous dermo-adipose flap, in skin-reducing mastectomy both for risk-reducing (prophylactic mastectomy) and therapeutic cases. Methods We performed a single-center, retrospective review 21 patients (mean age 47 years), undergone un the period January 2018–June 2021. All procedures were by same surgeon. Results A total 36...
Abstract Background Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare skin fibroblastic tumor, with high rate of recurrence. The treatment DFSP generally surgical, and wide local excision the mainstay surgical treatment. Therefore, complete assessment all margins fundamental before definitive reconstruction. reconstruction challenge for plastic surgeons, especially in particular anatomical areas (for aesthetic or functional problems) patients who are not candidates more complex treatments. We...

INTRODUCTION Lipofilling is a surgical technique involving the use of autologous adipose tissue for both aesthetic and reconstructive purposes. The rationale based on presence, inside tissue, multipotent stem cells, which can be used to improve texture, smoothness, elasticity pathologic (scars, ulcers, irregularities skin profile).1 Inside aspirated are also present cells (adipose derived [ ADSCs]) vascular endothelial growth factor, important their ability induce regenerative processes...

Keloids are pathological scars characterized by nodular fibrous tissue that extends beyond the border of initial damage. These lesions do not spontaneously regress and can cause cosmetic disfigurements functional disabilities. IntraLesional Injection Triamcinolone Acetonide (ILITA), alone or in combination with other therapy, is one first-line treatment modalities. In this study authors evaluated objective efficacy ILITA keloids management using new imaging system.37 patients 45 keloid were...
Scrotal degloving injuries are rare and constitute a challenge for reconstructive surgeons. The authors describe their successful experience with combined reconstruction protocol using an acellular dermal matrix (ADM), negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) split-thickness skin graft (STSG), the retrospective assessment of overall morbidity esthetic outcomes.Five consecutive patients underwent wide excision necrotic scrotal procedure NPWT, Pelnac®, STSG. efficacy this treatment was...
