ABSTRACT
Objective To analysis the effect of compound betamethasone injection combined with radiation on keloid in frontal facial region. Methods 60 cases of keloid patients in zhejiangprovincial people's hospital from January 2014 to January 2016 were selected,all patients were treated with surgery,the patients were randomly divided into observation group and control group,30 cases in each group,radiotherapy was used in the control group,the observation group was treated with local injection of compound betamethasone on the basis of the control group,the therapeutic effects, pain scores, adverse reactions and complications were compared between the two groups. Results The recurrence rate of the observation group was 3.33% which was significantly lower than that of the control group 10%,the improvement rate of the observation group 93.33% was significantly higher than the control group 80%,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).one,two and three months after operation,the pain scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group at the same time point,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The adverse reaction rate was 6.66% (2/30) in the observation group and 23.33% (7/30) in the control group, there was no significant difference between the two groups.The incidences of skin sag, pigmentation, incision delayed union and telangiectasia in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Compound betamethasone injection combined with radiation on the frontal facial keloid patients with significant effect,can significantly reduce the recurrence rate,improve the rate of improvement,reduce pain and complications in patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To illustrate and analyze the clinical feature and treatment of botulism introduced by illegal injection of botulinum neurotoxins (BoNT),in order to provide some evidence for early diagnosis and treatment strategy.Methods Retrospective analysis of 13 botulism patients was performed in this article.All of the patients were suffered from illegal injection of botulinum neurotox in products.Support treatments were carried out according to their severe grade,and the courses of disease and the curative effects were observed.Results A new category was first identified as injection induced botulism to describe such a situation of cosmetic injection out of the hospital with neither the prescribed botulinum toxin product nor a doctor.One in 13 patients graded mild botulism,the other 12 patients graded middle level.The processes of the new botulism had 4 stages:preclinical stage (4 days),progressive stage (9.8 days),apical stage (9.1 days) and restoration stage (5.2 months).The relationships of a positive correlation in injection dose and the length of progressive stage were identified,while a negative correlation with the length of preclinical stage was revealed.Conclusions The earlier2-3 weeks after illegal injection are crucial for intense care because of the acceleration in this period.Absolute rest and active treatments as well as antitoxinum are benefit for the recovery of patients.
