Use of porcine acellular dermal matrix to repair lung Hernia after minithoracotomy: A case report with 6-Year follow-up
No full textLung hernia following minimally invasive cardiac surgery is rare with few reported cases in the literature. Surgical repair is debated, and several methods have been described including a variety of synthetic and biological materials. We report a case of a 36-year-old woman who developed lung hernia and a strong retraction of the pectoralis major muscle after minithoracotomy that was performed for mitral valve surgery. The herniated lung was reduced and the chest wall defect was repaired with a non-cross linked acellular dermal matrix (ADM) anchored to the thoracic wall. At a 6-year follow-up, she was asymptomatic and without recurrence of the hernia. Our experience suggests that ADMs are a safe and reliable surgical technique for lung hernia repair due to their biological and mechanical properties, even in those secondary hernias to minithoracotomy where a complete muscle coverage of the matrix could not be provided.

A Peculiar Case of Large and "unresectable" Primary Localized Cutaneous Nodular Amyloidosis of the Ankle
No full textNodular cutaneous amyloidosis represents the rarest variant of primary localized cutaneous amyloidosis. The proposed management ranges from topical or systemic agents to surgical treatment. Complete surgical excision is advisable due to its potential progression to systemic amyloidosis due to dermis and subcutaneous tissue infiltration. However, in particular locations, the risk of functional complications is high, so an alternative treatment option should be considered. We report a case of a large primary nodular cutaneous amyloidosis of the leg involving the joint capsule which was successfully treated by incomplete surgical removal, without recurrences at 7-year follow-up.
