Versatility of Tunneled Island Flaps for the Reconstruction of Facial Defects. / Versatilidad del «colgajo en isla tunelizado¼ para la reconstrucción de defectos faciales.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Tunneled island flaps that transfer skin from a site adjacent to the wound are an effective way to reconstruct defects. These flaps provide good aesthetic and functional results and can be completed during a single surgical session, thus reducing complications. The procedure consists of taking an island of skin about the size of the surgical defect and moving it through a subcutaneous tunnel to cover the wound. We aimed to exemplify the use of these flaps in different regions of the face. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective descriptive study of 12 cases in which tunneled island flaps were used after removal of malignant tumors in different facial regions. RESULTS: The tumors, all of which were basal cell carcinomas, were removed by means of conventional surgery from 9 patients and Mohs micrographic surgery from 3 patients. Histology demonstrated tumor-free margins after excision in all cases. None of the tumors recurred during a mean follow-up period of 25 months. All complications were minor and transient. There were 3 cases of trapdoor effect and 2 each of postsurgical bleeding, transient superficial flap necrosis, and slight protrusion of the pedicle. The final cosmetic and functional outcome was satisfactory in all cases. CONCLUSIONS: Tunneled island flaps are particularly useful for repairing defects in the center of the face, where several anatomical structures converge. These flaps, which use donor skin that is similar to skin in the receptor site, can be used to close large defects in one-step procedures with only slight alteration of the facial architecture.

Introducción y objetivos: El colgajo en isla tunelizado (CIT) supone una opción eficaz para la reparación de grandes defectos faciales trasponiendo piel desde una unidad anatómica adyacente. La realización del colgajo aporta buenos resultados estéticos y funcionales en un único tiempo quirúrgico, evitando así complicaciones. El procedimiento consiste en labrar una isla de piel de dimensiones similares a las del defecto original, para luego desplazarla a través de un túnel subcutáneo a la región receptora. Nuestro objetivo es ejemplificar su uso en diferentes regiones de la cara. Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo retrospectivo de 12 casos con reconstrucción mediante CIT tras la extirpación de tumores malignos en distintas áreas faciales. Resultados: Presentamos una serie de 12 casos intervenidos de carcinoma basocelular, 9 mediante cirugía convencional y 3 mediante cirugía de Mohs. El estudio histológico mostró bordes quirúrgicos libres en todas las piezas de resección. El tiempo medio de seguimiento fue de 25 meses sin detectarse recidivas tumorales. Las complicaciones fueron menores y temporales: efecto trampilla en 3 pacientes, hemorragia posquirúrgica en 2, necrosis superficial transitoria del colgajo en 2 y protrusión leve del pedículo en 2 casos. El resultado final cosmético y funcional fue satisfactorio en todos los casos. Conclusiones: Los CIT son especialmente útiles en defectos centrofaciales donde convergen distintas unidades anatómicas. Permiten la reconstrucción en un único tiempo quirúrgico de grandes defectos faciales, aportando piel de características similares a las de la zona receptora y alterando mínimamente la arquitectura facial (AU)

B regulatory cells associated with changes in biochemical and inflammatory parameters in normal-glycemic individuals, pre-diabetes and T2DM patients.

AIM: To determine the percentages of (CD19 + CD24 + CD38+, CD19 + CD24 + CD27+, CD19 + IL-10+)-Breg cells, IL-17 single and IL-17+/IFN-γ double producers T cells and IFN-γ+ T cells, in normal-glycemic individuals, prediabetes and T2DM patients, and to analyze the association of Breg cells with metabolic parameters of T2DM. METHODS: percentages of Breg cells, IL-17+ and IL-17 + IFN-γ+ T cells, IFN-γ+ T cells and IL-10 were determined by flow cytometry. IL-6 levels were evaluated by ELISA assay. RESULTS: increased IL-6 levels, IL-17+ and IL-17 + IFN-γ+ T cells and a diminution of IL-10 levels and CD19 + IL-10+ cells in T2DM patients were observed. We found that CD19 + CD24 + CD27+ cells and CD19 + CD24 + CD38+ cells were increased in T2DM patients. The percentages of CD19 + CD24 + CD38+ cells were associated with HOMA-B, TyG index, HDL and cholesterol values. In normal-glycemic individuals, CD19 + CD24 + CD27+ cells were inversely associated to triglycerides and TyG index. In prediabetes patients, CD19 + CD24 + CD38+ cells were inversely related with cholesterol and LDL. Finally, CD19 + CD24 + CD38+ cells were inversely related with HDL values in T2DM patients. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that increased percentages of IL-17 single and IL-17/IFN-γ double producers T cells in T2DM patients may be a consequence of the initial CD19 + IL-10+ cells reduction. Furthermore, dyslipidemia could play an important role in percentages and activity of B regulatory cells.

Teledermatology before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic. / Teledermatología en tiempos de pandemia: El antes, el durante y el después.

The use and acceptance of teledermatology increased more in the last 2 months of the recent lockdown owing to coronavirus disease 2019 than in the preceding 20 years. This sudden popularity -even among the greatest skeptics- was driven by the need to offer solutions to patients in both public and private settings who suddenly found themselves unable to access in-person dermatological care. Even departments already offering an asynchronous, store-and-forward teledermatology service were obliged to create new systems to support direct interaction between specialists and patients (the direct-to-consumer model). This article suggests some practical ways to implement TD safely and to expedite and optimize teleconsultations; these ideas are not just applicable to a pandemic situation.

Reconstrucción de defectos auriculares mediante el «colgajo en isla en puerta giratoria». Serie de casos / Reconstructing Ear Defects Using the Revolving Door Island Flap: A Case Series

INTRODUCCIÓN Y OBJETIVOS: Los defectos de la zona anterior del pabellón auricular (PA) son un desafío reconstructivo debido a la compleja topografía y el difícil acceso. Describimos nuestra experiencia con el uso del colgajo en isla en puerta giratoria (CIPG) para la reconstrucción de defectos auriculares y se presentan los resultados quirúrgicos. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Estudio descriptivo retrospectivo de pacientes tratados mediante reconstrucción de oreja, de diversas localizaciones de la zona anterior, mediante el CIPG, tras la resección de tumores malignos. RESULTADOS: Entre 2011 y 2019 se operó a 17 pacientes: 7 carcinomas epidermoides y 10 basocelulares. El estudio histológico convencional mostró bordes quirúrgicos libres en todas las piezas de resección. El tiempo medio de seguimiento fue de 40 meses. Hubo una recidiva local en un carcinoma epidermoide, con buena respuesta a radioterapia, de forma que todos los pacientes estaban libres de enfermedad al completar el seguimiento. Solo 3 pacientes presentaron complicaciones menores (depresión de la superficie del colgajo en un caso y retracción del oído hacia la mastoides en 2 casos). Mediante escalas de valoración subjetiva, se determinó el resultado postoperatorio estético y funcional, tanto por parte del dermatólogo como del paciente. En todos los pacientes se conservó el contorno normal del PA reconstruido y ningún paciente requirió cirugía correctiva adicional. CONCLUSIONES: La reconstrucción auricular mediante CIPG permitió la reparación satisfactoria tras la resección completa de los tumores, preservando la estructura y funcionalidad. Está descrito que el CIPG es una muy buena opción reconstructiva de la concha auricular; es una técnica sencilla que permite reparar grandes defectos con mínimos riesgos de necrosis. En la serie presentada, el resultado cosmético fue excelente, con muy bajo índice de recurrencias. Los resultados son óptimos en la reparación de lesiones conchales pero también de otras zonas, como el antihélix y las fosas triangular y escafoidea

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Defects of the anterior region of the pinna pose a reconstruction challenge owing to the complex topography and difficult access. We report our experience using the revolving door island flap (RDIF) to reconstruct pinna defects and present the surgical results. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective descriptive study of patients undergoing ear reconstruction using RDIF at different sites of the anterior region after resection of malignant tumors. RESULTS: Seventeen patients underwent surgery between 2011 and 2019 for squamous cell carcinoma (n = 7) and basal cell carcinoma (n = 10). Conventional histology showed disease-free surgical margins in all the resected tissue specimens. The mean follow-up period was 40 months. One local recurrence of squamous cell carcinoma was observed, which responded well to radiation therapy; all patients were free of disease at the end of follow-up. Only 3 patients presented minor complications (depression of the flap surface in 1 case and retraction of the ear toward the mastoid process in 2 cases). Subjective rating scales were used to evaluate cosmetic and functional outcomes as assessed by both the dermatologist and the patient. The normal contour of the pinna was conserved in all patients and no patients required additional corrective surgery. CONCLUSIONS: Reconstruction of the pinna using RDIF allowed for satisfactory repair following complete resection of the tumors, while conserving structure and functionality. RDIF has been reported to be a very good option for reconstruction of the pinna. It is a simple technique that makes it possible to repair large defects with minimal risk of necrosis. In our series, the cosmetic results were excellent and recurrence rates were very low. RDIF provided optimal results in repairing lesions in the concha and in other regions, such as the antihelix, triangular fossa, and scapha

Functional Surgery for Malignant Subungual Tumors: A Case Series and Literature Review. / Cirugía funcional en tumores malignos subungueales. Serie de casos y revisión de la literatura.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Amputation is the conventional treatment for malignant subungual tumors (MSUTs), namely, subungual squamous cell carcinoma (SUSCC) and subungual melanoma (SUM). Functional surgery consisting of wide local excision (WLE) of the nail unit can preserve function without modifying prognosis in such cases. We present a series of MSUTs treated with WLE of the nail unit, describe the technique, and review its indications. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective observational study of MSUTs treated with WLE of the nail unit between 2008 and 2017. The technique consisted of en bloc supraperiosteal excision of the nail unit with a margin of 5mm followed by repair with a full-thickness graft. RESULTS: Eleven MSUTs were treated in the study period: 7 SUMs (4 in situ; mean thickness, 1.17mm; range, 0-4mm) and 4 SUSCCs (mean thickness, 3.4mm; range, 1.6-6mm). WLE of the nail unit was performed in 9 patients and amputation in 2 patients with invasive SUM. Mean follow-up was 39 months (range, 12-96 months) and no local or regional recurrences were detected. One of the 2 patients who underwent amputation developed metastasis to the brain and died. In our review of the literature, we identified 5 series of patients with SUSCC treated with WLE of the nail unit (105 patients) and 14 series of patients with SUM (243 patients). Based on an analysis of these cases and ours, it would appear that WLE of the nail unit is associated with a very low rate of local recurrence (<7%) and offers better functional and cosmetic outcomes than amputation. CONCLUSIONS: WLE of the nail unit is the treatment of choice for SUSCC without bone involvement and for thin noninvasive SUM (Breslow depth <1mm). It is also feasible in intermediate-thickness SUMs when detailed histologic examination of the margins confirms complete resection. Amputation, by contrast, is the treatment of choice for SUSCCs with bone involvement, very thick SUMs (>4mm), and recurrent tumors.

Cirugía funcional en tumores malignos subungueales. Serie de casos y revisión de la literatura / Functional Surgery for Malignant Subungual Tumors: A Case Series and Literature Review

ANTECEDENTES Y OBJETIVOS: El tratamiento clásico de los tumores malignos subungueales (TMSU), carcinoma epidermoide (CESU) y melanoma (MSU), es la amputación. La cirugía funcional del aparato ungueal (CFAU) puede preservar la función sin modificar el pronóstico. Presentamos nuestra serie de TMSU manejados con CFAU, describimos la técnica y revisamos sus indicaciones. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Estudio observacional retrospectivo de TMSU tratados con CFAU entre 2008 y 2017, con exéresis supraperióstica en bloque del aparato ungueal, margen a 5 mm, y cierre con injerto de piel total. RESULTADOS: Se trataron 11 TMSU, de los cuales 7 fueron MSU (4 in situ, espesor medio: 1,17mm; rango: 0-4mm) y 4 CESU (espesor medio: 3,4 mm; rango: 1,6-6 mm). Se realizó CFAU en 9 casos y 2 amputaciones en sendos MSU invasivos. El seguimiento medio fue 39 meses, con un rango de 12-96 meses. No hubo recidivas locales ni regionales. Solo un caso -una de las 2 amputaciones- tuvo metástasis (cerebrales) y muerte. La revisión de la literatura de CFAU en TMSU mostró 5 series (103 pacientes en total) con CESU y 14 series (243 pacientes en total) con MSU. El análisis de nuestros casos y de los casos publicados muestra muy escasas recurrencias locales (< 7%), y mejores resultados funcionales y estéticos frente a la amputación. CONCLUSIONES: La CFAU es de elección en CESU sin afectación ósea y MSU no invasivo o delgado (Breslow <1mm). Es factible en MSU de grosores intermedios siempre con detallado estudio histológico de márgenes que asegure una resección completa. Por el contrario, en CESU con afectación ósea, MSU muy grueso (>4mm) o recurrencias, la amputación debe ser habitualmente de elección
