Abstract

Nasal ala, due to its characteristics, is a unique anatomical part of the body. Unfortunately, nasal ala often suffers traumas or is affected by cancers, the treatment of which can imply all-thickness amputation. In such cases, complex reconstruction is necessary to recreate both a satisfying cosmetic structure and to ensure free airflow. We present a clinical case of nasal ala major substance loss due to cancer, which was treated by use of the new Mutaf triangular flap.

Electrochemotherapy could be useful in the palliative treatment of this lymphangiosarcoma.

Abstract

Bortezomib is a proteasome inhibitor that has proven to be a very effective treatment for multiple myeloma. There is considerable debate about the potential for reactivation of the varicella zoster virus (VZV) in patients with multiple myeloma during treatment with bortezomib. This report describes the case of a 70-year-old patient with multiple myeloma that developed bilateral herpes zoster shortly after being treated with bortezomib. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of using an antiviral prophylaxis with acyclovir in these patients treated with bortezomib.

Abstract

Eccrine acrospiroma, better known as eccrine poroma, is a benign adnexal neoplasm of the skin. Its clinical aspect can masquerade as some other nodular and cystic lesions. The current dermoscopy literature offers very few case studies. Moreover, these very few examples present a totally different appearance pattern compared to the one we examined. Its homogeneous blue pattern suggested the better-known nodular malignant melanoma; in fact, this dermoscopic appearance was due to the Tyndall effect.

Abstract

Disseminated Superficial Actinic Porokeratosis (DSAP) is usually triggered by sun exposure. In some cases sun exposure is not essential and this skin disease is related to immunosuppression. Many associated diseases are described in the literature. We report a clinical case of a patient affected by pyoderma gangrenosum, who developed DSAP.

Abstract

A case is presented of a 27-year-old Caucasian woman that presented with an oval purplish patch with defined borders on her right cheek. It was swollen and tense, with a mottled surface due to scarring. Histologic examination indicated discoid lupus erythematosus and the patient was initially treated with medical therapy. The lesion relapse and cosmetic results convinced us to propose surgical option with aggressive medical treatment and follow up. In our patient, this combination therapy proved effective.
