Do you know this syndrome? Schimmelpenning-Feuerstein-Mims syndrome.

Nevus sebaceous is the most common type of organoid epidermal nevus, often located on the face, following the Blaschko's lines and with alterations in the ipsilateral central nervous system. Distinct disorders can be distinguished by the type of association with epidermal nevus. Schimmelpenning-Feuerstein-Mims syndrome is a rare multisystem disorder characterized by sebaceous nevus associated with extracutaneous abnormalities affecting the brain, eyes and bones. We report the case of an 8-year-old female patient with a yellowish verrucous plaque on the left temporal area extending ipsilaterally to the cervical region, combined with cicatricial alopecia, periocular nodule, and epibulbar tumors.

Abstract Nevus sebaceous is the most common type of organoid epidermal nevus, often located on the face, following the Blaschko's lines and with alterations in the ipsilateral central nervous system. Distinct disorders can be distinguished by the type of association with epidermal nevus. Schimmelpenning-Feuerstein-Mims syndrome is a rare multisystem disorder characterized by sebaceous nevus associated with extracutaneous abnormalities affecting the brain, eyes and bones.

Retalho A-T para reconstrução de ferida operatória na ponta nasal / A-T flap for reconstruction of surgical wound in the nasal tip

A região nasal é local frequente de tumores cutâneos, e reparar defeitos nessa região pode ser um grande desafio cirúrgico devido à necessidade do restabelecimento de suas propriedades estrutural, funcional e estética. Este estudo descreve a aplicação de um retalho A-T como opção para reconstrução de ferida operatória secundária à excisão de carcinoma basocelular na ponta nasal.

The nasal region is site of frequent cutaneous tumors and repair defects in this region can be a great surgical challenge due to the need of restoring their structural, functional and aesthetic properties. This study describes the implementation of an A-T flap as an option for reconstruction of surgical wound secondary to excision of basal cell carcinoma in the nasal tip.

Cross-sectional study of the microbiological safety profile of reusing hyaluronic acid fillers.

INTRODUCTION: Facial filling with hyaluronic acid (HA) is a dermatological procedure that has been emerging today. There are not many references regarding safety of reusing the remaining product for later touch-up in the same patient. OBJECTIVE: To determine the microbiological safety of reusing hyaluronic acid that is remnant from syringes used for facial filling, stored at room temperature or cooled in a refrigerator at 4°C. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In culture medium, small aliquots of leftovers from 31 hyaluronic acid fillers, previously used for facial filling, were inoculated. The fillers were stored in their original syringes at room temperature or cooled in a standard refrigerator at 4°C for a period ranging from 1 week to 12 months after initial use. LIMITATIONS: The small number of samples limits extrapolation of the results obtained. RESULTS: After 42 days of inoculation in culture medium, none of the samples showed any aerobic or anaerobic bacterial or fungal growth. CONCLUSION: Hyaluronic acid fillers did not show any fungal or bacterial contamination after being opened and stored at room temperature in nonaseptic conditions. The possibility of reusing the remaining portion of the material in the syringe can be safe and economically viable.
