Isolated congenital absence of the nasal bones and its aesthetic surgical correction. Managing and case report
No full textA rare case of isolated congenital bone agenesis in a young woman referred to the authors for aesthetic correction of the dorsum profile is described. There are no descriptions of surgical treatment for this isolated facial defect in the literature. After a complete and accurate diagnostic study, a rhinoplasty was performed with a good result and without complications during a 2-year follow-up period. To explain this congenital malformation, several hypotheses were examined, such as bony resorption and embryologic bony development syndromes. This report describes the possibility of intervention in the case of nasal bone absence and shows how risks of structural instability can be avoided with an accurate preoperative study and a careful surgical approach

Squamous cell deep carcinoma after abdominal dermolipectomy: a case report
No full textWe present a rare case of squamous cell carcinoma that arose deeply in the abdominal wall, 10 years after abdominal dermolipectomy and wall repair by dermal-adipose graft was performed. The patient presented a 10-cm-diameter subcutaneous tumor that was ulcerated on its superficial aspect, adherent to deep tissues. After histologic examination, we tried to remove the neoplastic mass in a radical way. The surgical defect was repaired with a bilateral tensor fasciae latae flap. The extension, aggressiveness, and deep localization of the malignancy led to the patient's death. In this article, we also analyze a different hypothesis about the origin of squamous cell deep carcinomas and the related literature
Use of local-regional flaps in facial reconstruction
No full textAim. Skin neoplasms are very common, with 700.000 new cases diagnosed annually: 77 % are basal cell carcinomas, 20 % squamous cell carcinomas and 3 % melanomas or rarer tumours. The incidence and prevalence of cutaneous neoplasms of the face are increasing and 86 % non-melanoma skin cancers are found in this area. Wide resection is mandatory and often results in large defects. Reconstructive procedures should respect functional and aesthetic units and sub-units of the face. Attention to unit and subunit anatomy facilitates adequate reconstruction with acceptable deformity. Methods. During a 10-year period 548 patients underwent reconstruction of the face for surgical defects having a diameter of 2.5 to 6.0 cm. Results. A single flap was employed in 356 patients and a combination of flap in 186 cases. Major complications occurred in 6 cases (1.1 %). Minor complications were observed in 15 patients (2.7%). Conclusions. The goals of skin cancer treatment are: complete lesion removal, preservation of normal tissue and function and optimal cosmesis. Although primary closure is the ideal method of reconstruction for small defects, flap closure provides a versatile and safe alternative In surgical defects closure, optimal aesthetic results are obtained if cosmetic units are preserved and, whenever possible, scars are placed in naturally occurring creases and folds
Autologous fat graft in postmastectomy pain syndrome
No full textMastectomy with axillary dissection is still one of the most common procedures in oncologic surgery. Unfortunately, a condition of neuropathic pain, termed postmastectomy pain syndrome, can appear after mastectomy. Although evidence regarding the epidemiology of postmastectomy pain syndrome is well researched, an effective therapy is still unknown. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical effectiveness of lipoaspirate graft in the treatment of postmastectomy pain syndrom
