RESUMO

Onychocryptosis, or ingrown toenail, is a frequent, painful condition affecting young individuals. Controversies still exist regarding its etiopathogenesis and treatment options, including conservative and surgical techniques. The choice of treatment method depends on the stage of disease as conservative measures are mostly effective in early stages and surgical procedures are required in the later stages. Among surgical techniques, phenol cauterization of lateral nail matrix has been the most effective, safe, and commonly performed method. Other more destructive surgical procedures are rarely done nowadays. In this review, we briefly discuss the etiopathogenesis, clinical features, and different treatment options of ingrown toenail.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Circumcision is one of the most frequently applied surgical procedures all over the world and a number of techniques and devices have been described concerning its method. Especially in developing countries where circumcision has been performed intensively under local anaesthesia, the thermocautery device developed to perform circumcisions in a short time and safely has found a widespread application. OBJECTIVE: We aim to share our experiences concerning application principles of the thermocautery device so as to be able to achieve better cosmetic results with lower complication rates. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between the years 2009 and 2016, a total of 12,355 children between the ages of 40 days and 16 years (mean: 5.1 ± 2.0 years) were circumcised at our hospital. All circumcisions were performed by urologists under local anaesthesia using a thermocautery device (Thermo-Med TM 802B device; Thermo Medikal, Adana, Turkey). RESULTS: Bleeding that required surgical intervention did not occur in any patient. Compressive dressing was applied to 62 patients who had moderate degrees of bleeding, for haemostasis purposes. Twelve syncopes and four epileptic seizures developed secondary to local anaesthesia were managed in consultation with the Department of Children Health and Diseases. The most serious complication, trapped penis, was seen in 48 patients. All these complications were resolved using surgical interventions. Infection developed in 15 patients, and it was relieved with the administration of oral antibiotherapy. Penile adhesions were relieved in 25 cases, and anti-inflammatory treatment was organised. Meatal stenosis occurred in three cases, and two cases of inclusion cysts were treated with surgical intervention. DISCUSSION: In countries where circumcision is routinely applied, developing swift and safer methods are of the utmost importance. To this end, we prefer thermocautery, which can satisfy patient demands swiftly and safely. CONCLUSION: To reduce the complications after circumcision using thermocautery, we think that it is appropriate to pay attention to the following issues during circumcision: The cautery should be turned in a serial manner and both sides of the blade should be used for cutting, and temperature of the thermocauter should be adjusted according to the skin thickness. The cutting process should be achieved in two steps, and another method should be preferred for buried penis. If these rules are followed, we think that the thermocautery-supported method can be a very safe and fast circumcision method.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Neuroendoscopy has allowed us to biopsy tumors located in the ventricle and the para-ventricle. With this technique we can obtain specimens under direct visual monitoring and examine tumor dissemination. For intra-parenchymal tumors, however, we normally use stereotactic procedures to collect tissues or perform open biopsies. We now report that we have successfully combined neuroendoscopy with navigational guidance to biopsy intra-parenchymal tumors. We explain our methods and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this technique. CASES AND METHODS: We carried out intra-parenchymal tumor biopsies or resection using neuroendoscopy and guided navigation in three patients. We advanced a transparent sheath, containing a removable inner tube on which a navigation tool was mounted, to target tissues. We directly monitored procedures with a neuroendoscope placed in the transparent sheath. We collected specimens just in front of and in the tumor by forceps. In one patient with bleeding, we used the aspirator tip as a monopolar coagulator. We were also able to check for bleeding along the sheath tract using endoscopy. Without causing any new neurological deficits, we collected tissues for histological diagnosis of astrocytoma in two patients and radiation necrosis in one. CONCLUSIONS: We believe that combining neuroendoscopy with navigation guidance is a safe and precise method for obtaining biopsies of intra-parenchymal tumors. Tumors with rich vasculature will not benefit from this procedure until better hemocoagulation instruments have been developed.
