BACKGROUND Phenol is the gold standard for chemical matricectomy in ingrowing toenail. Recently, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) was used as cauterant. Both agents have high success rates but a postoperative healing time claimed to be faster TCA rather than phenol. OBJECTIVE Comparing efficacy, oozing time, inflammatory reaction, and pain. MATERIALS AND METHODS Comparative, prospective, randomized, double-blind study. Eighty-four patients with 96 toenails were randomized 2 groups. Forty-six...
Recurrences of herpes labialis (RHL) may be triggered by systemic factors, including stress, menses, and fever. Local stimuli, such as lip injury or sunlight exposure are also associated to RHL. Dental extraction has been reported triggering event.Seven otherwise healthy patients presented with severe extensive RHL occurring about 2-3 days after dental under local anaesthesia. Immunohistochemistry on smears immunofluorescence cell culture identified simplex virus type I (HSV-I). Five more...
Under specific light illumination, particularly ultraviolet (UV) and near-UV stimulation, the skin produces both specular reflectance and, possibly, fluorescent emission. These properties offer diagnostic clues disclose some peculiar functions of skin. A series superficial infections (erythrasma, tinea capitis types, tinea/pityriasis versicolor, dermatophytoses, etc.) pilosebaceous follicles enriched in Propionibacterium spp show fluorescence. This latter characteristic is downgraded or lost...
With aging, the barrier repair kinetics following any weakening of epidermal permeability function is commonly slowed down. To assess recovery rate controlled stripping and applications samphire control formulations. In 12 healthy subjects older than 50 years, stratum corneum (SC) strippings were used to increase transepidermal water loss (TEWL) just above 15 g/m(2) /h. This procedure followed a 14-day skin preconditioning by daily formulations enriched or not with (Crithmum maritimum)...
Langerhans cell histiocytosis is a rare group of proliferative disorders. Beside cutaneous involvement, other internal organs can be affected. The treatment lesions difficult and relies on topical corticosteroids, carmustine, nitrogen mustard, photochemotherapy. Systemic steroids vinblastine are used for recalcitrant skin lesions. However, some cases fail to respond. An 18-month old boy presented CD1a + , S100a histocytosis with severe scalp involvement. Topical corticosteroids mustard...
A 64-year-old man with a pulmonary transplant developed diffuse verrucae vulgares of the neck. After failure multiple cryotherapy treatments, 3 sessions photodynamic therapy resulted in rapid therapeutic clinical success. This moderately painful and well-tolerated treatment is reproducible can be very useful treating papillomavirus infections immunosuppressed patient.
Infantile haemangioma therapy has long been a wait-and-see policy. Since recent development of laser and light therapy, pulsed dye successfully used for treating superficial haemangiomas. Few studies have published about treatment with intense (IPL) to assess the risk/benefit IPL in infantile haemangiomas during their early proliferative phase. In present retrospective cohort study, we retrieved data series 14 Caucasian children (median age: 4.8 months) treated Photoderm Vasculight flash...
We report the case of woman who presented a vulvar basal cell carcinoma (BCC) on inner part labium majus, treated with local resection. Vulvar BCC is rare cancer but can be long misdiagnosed due to non-specific presentation. Though even rarer, involving mucosal side majus has considered in differential diagnosis tumors. A complete excision free margins treatment most recommended. Other recommendations include early identification aggressive subtypes, which carry greater risk recurrence and...
Blue nevus of the nail apparatus is a rare entity and only isolated cases are reported in literature.The aim this study was to better characterize blue at unit.Retrospective analysis all unit nevi from Nail Group French Society Dermatology compared literature.Eleven were retrieved 2002 2019 with an average age 45 years. The majority women (9/11) acquired (10/11). Hands more frequently involved predilection for thumb 2 located on hallux. mostly presented as well-delimited spot lunula...
For more than 70 years, the watchful-waiting management of infantile strawberry hemangiomas still prevails in a number clinical settings. This concept appears now outdated since introduction well-suited beta-blockers, as well noncoherent light and laser therapies. The aim this work was to revisit effect of intense pulsed (IPL) therapy on infantile hemangioma. Information collected from peer-reviewed literature illustrated by personal cases. When applied early evolution ...
Drug shortages have increased in recent years, and every country worldwide has been affected. The French Ministry of Health asked various scientific societies to establish a list ‘critical’ drugs for each specialty. aim this is enable the public authorities control chain production guarantee availability drugs. We present critical dermatological drugs, which result strong consensus between all representative entities Society Dermatology.
