Do you know this syndrome? Schimmelpenning-Feuerstein-Mims syndrome

Abstract Nevus sebaceous is the most common type of organoid epidermal nevus, often located on the face, following the Blaschko's lines and with alterations in the ipsilateral central nervous system. Distinct disorders can be distinguished by the type of association with epidermal nevus. Schimmelpenning-Feuerstein-Mims syndrome is a rare multisystem disorder characterized by sebaceous nevus associated with extracutaneous abnormalities affecting the brain, eyes and bones. We report the case of an 8-year-old female patient with a yellowish verrucous plaque on the left temporal area extending ipsilaterally to the cervical region, combined with cicatricial alopecia, periocular nodule, and epibulbar tumors.

Retalho de interpolação para fechamento de defeito cirúrgico na cauda da hélice da orelha / Interpolation flap for closing a surgical defect in the cauda helicis

A ressecção oncológica auricular pode criar defeitos parciais da pele e/ou da cartilagem que tornam difícil e desafiadora a reconstrução desse local. Várias técnicas têm sido descritas, porém poucos casos de cirurgias para defeitos na cauda da hélice têm sido relatados. Os autores descrevem um retalho de interpolação nessa localização anatômica para correção de defeito secundário à excisão de carcinoma basocelular.

Oncologic ear resection can create partial skin and / or cartilage defects that make reconstruction of this site difficult and challenging. Several techniques have been described, however few cases of surgery for defects in the cauda helicis have been reported. The authors describe an interpolation flap in this anatomical location for the correction of a defect secondary to the excision of a basal cell carcinoma.
