Sutures and Burrow's triangles placed in the red vermilion in the surgery of upper lip defects.

BACKGROUND: In upper lip defects both the design of the flap and the position of the Burrow's triangles may be reversed so as to conceal the scars among skin wrinkles, folds and the mucosal lip to maximize the aesthetic outcome. OBJECTIVE: To report two cases of upper lip defects in which both scars and Burrow's triangles were concealed in the natural folds and the vermilion. METHODS: Both surgeries were performed under local anaesthesia. RESULT: In both patients the scars were successfully concealed and the results aesthetically acceptable. CONCLUSION: The technique described can be used to conceal scars in cases of upper lip defects with aesthetically acceptable results.

Liposuction surgery for the treatment of large hematomas on the leg.

BACKGROUND: Post-traumatic hematomas overlying the muscular fascia on the lateral aspect of the leg are common in elderly patients, particularly those receiving oral anticoagulant therapy. When large collections of blood accumulate within this region, the pressure within the hematomas may exceed the blood pressure in the dermal and subdermal vessels. Large areas of necrosis of the overlying skin may then result. OBJECTIVE: To decrease the pressure of evolving and long-standing hematomas, thereby reducing inflammation and pain. METHODS: Liposuction surgery was employed as a means of decompressing both evolving and long-standing hematomas. RESULTS: Liposuction surgery has been found to be useful in the treatment of hematomas on the leg, and has the added benefit of producing cosmetically elegant results. An elastic compression bandage placed postoperatively reduces the risk of relapse. CONCLUSION: Liposuction surgery may be used to remove large leg hematomas without producing long and cosmetically unacceptable scars. The technique is easy to perform and permits rapid evacuation of hematomas, thereby minimizing patient discomfort.

Chronic bullous disease of childhood following Epstein-Barr virus seroconversion: a case report.

We report the case of a 3-year-old boy with classical chronic bullous disease of childhood (CBDC) arising after recent Epstein-Barr virus seroconversion following infectious mononucleosis. The patient also had small red cells and decreased levels of circulating IgA. He received combined treatment with dapsone and prednisone with good results. Our report is the first of CBDC preceded by Epstein-Barr virus seroconversion. The virus may have had an initial immunopathogenic role in the genesis of the bullous eruption.

An epidemic of infantile papular acrodermatitis (Gianotti-Crosti syndrome) due to Epstein-Barr virus.

Five out of twelve 13- to 15-month-old children, attending the same class of a crèche in Forlì (Italy), presented infantile papular acrodermatitis (Gianotti-Crosti syndrome), associated with lymphocytosis and evidence for a recent Epstein-Barr virus infection. This cluster may be due to two facts: (1) the long and close contacts among the patients and (2) the concurrent immunization with a combined diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis-poliomyelitis vaccine from 2 to 6 weeks previously.
