Seventy-five percent of nonmelanoma skin cancers are located in the head and neck area, which 30 occur on nose (225,000 new cases per year). The aim this study was to develop a nasal reconstruction algorithm for defects, based experience with 788 consecutive reconstructions performed multidisciplinary university medical center setting over period 7 years.Medical files patients who were operated various pathologies between January 2001 December 2008 reviewed. In addition, literature search...
Lentigo maligna is a slowly growing melanoma in situ. Current guidelines advise wide local excision with margin of 5 mm as the treatment first choice, which has recurrence rates ranging from 6% to 20%.To determine retrospectively rate lentigo after staged surgical excision.Records all patients treated our method between 2002 and 2011 were retrieved. To identify recurrences we used computer program Sympathy, linked PALGA, nationwide network registry histo- cytopathology Netherlands.We...
The need for European guidelines in dermatology is indicated by the ongoing development dermatology.The EDF, EADV and ESDR headed UEMS, also officially approved Community, form structure of pan differ substantially from individual national guidelines.The main differences are:No restrictions different regulations EDF GuidelinesNo imposed local rules on drug distribution, reimbursement facilities, etc.The diagnosis treatment venous leg ulcers an important consideration within all...
Summary Many types of skin disorders concomitantly occur with hepatitis C virus infection. These lesions may be induced or worsened during antiviral therapy interferon-alpha (IFN). To our knowledge, hyperpigmentation the skin—and especially tongue—has not been reported so far. We describe two dark-skinned patients who developed hyperpigmented and tongue combination IFN ribavirin. Immunohistochemical analysis biopsies confirmed suspicion melanin deposits in these areas hyperpigmentation....
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) of superficial basal cell carcinoma using topical 5-aminolaevulinic acid (ALA) and 75-100 J/cm2 light dose yields unsatisfactory long-term results. In several animal models, illumination with two fractions approximately 2 h apart was considerably more effective than single illumination, suggesting the need for a pilot clinical study. Fifteen patients total 86 primary carcinomas, received ALA were illuminated 4 6 later, both 45 laser (633+/-1 nm). Fluorescence...
Abstract Background In the Netherlands basal cell carcinomas (BCC) are eligible for Mohs microscopic surgery (MMS) if certain criteria fulfilled. Objective To study MMS indication practised at department of dermatology Erasmus University Medical Center, Rotterdam and to identify predictive factors extensive subclinical tumour spread among BCCs MMS. Methods Pre‐operative patient characteristics were derived retrospectively between January 2nd 2006 December 28th 2009 from 1174 records,...
Background Skin testing is a common diagnostic procedure in food allergy. The skin prick test the of first choice for investigating immediate IgE‐mediated reaction, TTie application (SAFT) has been developed on basis mechanism contact urticaria syndrome (CUS), Methods We studied relevance SAFT children younger than 4 years with atopic dermatitis and (suspected) allergy as compared prick‐prick test, radioallergosorbent (RAST), oral challenge. In tests, we used fresh food, same state it was...
One significant risk factor for recurrence after Mohs surgery is misinterpretation of slides.To determine how often pathologists detected incompletely excised basal cell carcinoma (BCC) on slides and to factors BCCs.This retrospective study included 1653 BCCs treated with in a university hospital between 2007 2011. For routine quality assurance, all were additionally reviewed by pathologist within 1 week the procedure. this study, cases that had divergent interpretations re-evaluated surgeon...

The success of Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) depends partly on the correct diagnosis slides. To determine reliability from This was a prospective study evaluating slides basal cell carcinoma (BCC) presence, BCC location slide and subtype among six raters who independently assessed 50 twice with 2‐month interval. Slides were randomly selected whereby difficult‐to‐diagnose oversampled. For each slide, reference established by an expert panel. Cohen's kappa (κ) calculated to levels agreement...
Wound closure after excision is commonly done with sutures or staples. A new sutureless innovative wound system available for skin closure.To evaluate healing, patient comfort, and cosmetic results of a foil flip-over small lesion.Patients presenting to the department Dermatology Erasmus University Medical Center, Rotterdam, The Netherlands surgery during 1.5-year period were prospectively studied. Key outcome measures results. Three independent physicians scored photographs scars....
Sir: We would like to thank Drs. Gurunluoglu and Williams for their comments on our recently published article, “Nasal Reconstruction after Malignant Tumor Resection: An Algorithm Treatment.”1 suggest two other local flaps reconstructing small nasal skin-only defects as an addition algorithm. based algorithm personal clinical experience combined with a literature review, we realize that does not contain all reconstruction options ever in the literature. fully agree selection of particular...
