RESUMO

BACKGROUND: It is unclear how the usage of topical steroid agents affects skin barrier function. OBJECTIVE: In order to follow up on previous research into this topic, we sought to investigate the effects of a 3-week application of topical mometasone cream on the alteration of skin barrier function. METHODS: Twenty-six patients who had been clinically diagnosed with allergic contact dermatitis were enrolled. Topical mometasone cream was applied to the skin lesions. Clinical symptoms, transepidermal water loss (TEWL), corneometer unit, and pH value were measured on the initial visit, 1 week after treatment, and 3 weeks after treatment, and their values were compared. RESULTS: Clinical symptoms showed improvement after topical mometasone cream was applied (p0.05). CONCLUSION: This study found that treatment with topical mometasone cream for 3 weeks has no effect on skin barrier function. We believe that this research will help determine the optimal duration and dosage of topical steroid agents used for treating allergic contact dermatitis.

RESUMO

Herein, we report a 36-year-old Asian male patient who presented with grouped multiple erythematous waxy papules and nodules on his right medial thigh. He had undergone amputation of the right second toe because of a stage IIa malignant melanoma, 3 years previously. At the time of surgery for the primary tumor, right inguinal lymph node dissection revealed no nodal involvement. Three years after the diagnosis of the primary tumor, crops of multiple erythematous papules and nodules developed. Initial histopathologic evaluation of the papules showed nests of small epithelioid cells similar to compound nevi. However, cytologic features, including high mitotic figures, lack of maturation, and some hyperchromatic nuclei suggested metastatic melanoma. In addition to the pathologic findings, the tumors were on the right thigh, which was the same side as the primary malignant melanoma. The patient underwent wide excision of the tumor and split-thickness skin grafting.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: An ingrown nail is a common condition of inflammation and infection that can occur when nails are clipped too much or pressure is applied by tight shoes. In Korea, a study on the success of tube insertion after nail guttering has been reported, but studies including other treatments are lacking. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the success rates of three treatments for ingrown nails: 1) nail splinting via a flexible tube; 2) partial nail extraction and electrocautery; or 3) partial nail extraction and phenol cauterization. METHODS: Fifty-one patients who underwent nail splinting via a flexible tube or partial nail extraction followed by either electrocautery or phenol cauterization of the nail matrix over a 6-year period at our hospital were evaluated for treatment outcome. The disease severity was classified using the Heifetz grading scale. We evaluated the success rates of the various treatments according to reduced disease severity. Treatment failure was defined as persistence or re-occurrence of disease symptoms. RESULTS: 1. Out of 51 cases of ingrown nails, 31 (60%) showed no recurrence after treatment. 2. There were conflicting results between the severity grade and success rate. 3. Treatment via partial nail extraction and either electrocautery or phenol cauterization was more effective (success rates of 63% and 60%, respectively) than nail splinting via a flexible tube (56% success rate). However, the results were not statistically significant. CONCLUSION: Selecting the proper therapeutic method is important for successful treatment of an ingrown nail.

RESUMO

Subungual melanoma is a variant of acral lentiginous melanoma and is thought to carry a poor prognosis due to difficulties in early diagnosis. Classical management of subungual melanoma is based on the radical surgery of distal phalanx amputation. Instead, conservative treatment with non-amputative wide excision of the nail unit followed by reconstruction has been insufficiently reported, especially in Korea. A 71-year-old woman presented with dark brownish longitudinal bands on her right thumbnail. Punch biopsies from the nail matrix and nail bed showed proliferation of atypical melanocytes without dermal involvement. We describe a case of subungual melanoma in situ of the right thumb, and a non-amputative surgical management which aims to provide adequate clearance of the lesion with minimal morbidity and satisfactory preservation of function for the patient.
