ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the management of granulation tissue during surgery for infected congenital preauricular fistula and to assess the surgical outcomes. Methods:To summarize the surgical methods and the treatment of granulation methods in 140 cases of congenital preauricular fistula during the period of infection treated in our department from January 2018 to September 2022. The study divided patients into an observation group （79 patients） undergoing fistulectomy without granulation treatment, and a control group （61 patients） where fistulectomy and granulation resection were performed concurrently.. After six months of follow-up, the wound healing, recurrence rates, and the aesthetic assessment of granulation healing were evaluated using the Stony Brook Scar Evaluation Scale（SBSES）. Results:The two surgical approaches were applied to a total of 140 patients with infected congenital preauricular fistula. There was no statistical difference in wound healing and recurrence rates between the observation group and the control group. However, the observation group exhibited smaller scars. Conclusion:In cases of infected congenital preauricular fistula, surgical removal without excising granulation tissue is feasible, leading to effective healing and lesser scar formation.

Objective:To explore the effect of self-made negative pressure suction in auricle subluxation and avulsion injury.Methods:The clinical data of 7 patients with auricle subluxation and avulsion injury from January 2017 to February 2022 in the First People′s Hospital of Lianyungang City were retrospectively analyzed. The 7 patients were treated with self-made simple negative pressure drainage device for negative pressure suction after suture.Results:Among the 7 patients, 1 patient suffered from severe contusion and local skin necrosis, and the scar healed after local application of erythromycin eye ointment, while the other patients healed in the first stage without obvious auricular deformity.Conclusions:The negative pressure drainage is the key factor to ensure the blood supply and shape of patients with auricle subluxation and avulsion injury. The application of self-made negative pressure drainage in the treatment of subtotal auricle avulsion injury has the advantages of simple operation, improved survival rate of auricle and improved satisfactory auricle shape.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effect of nasolabial fold flap in the treatment of nasal ala subtotal defect nasal afte ala tumor operation.Methods:The clinical data of 7 nasal ala subtotal defect patients underwent nasal ala basal cell carcinoma operation in the First People′s Hospital of Lianyungang City from February 2018 to September 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Seven patients with nasal ala subtotal defect were successfully repaired with nasolabial fold flap. The patients were followed up for 19 to 52 months, the flaps survived, the color was good, the contour was not bloated, the nasal ventilation was not affected, and good results were achieved.Conclusions:The nasolabial fold flap repair of the nasal ala subtotal defect after nasal ala tumor operation has the advantages of simple method, rich materials, no need for vascular anastomosis, no need for secondary surgery, accurate effect and so on, which is suitable for clinical promotion in clinical.
