The feasibility of determining SLNs using LS and an intraoperative gamma probe in patients with cutaneous SCC was shown. Unnecessary elective lymph node dissection and possible complications could be avoided in 19 patients.
Fibroepithelial polyps (FEPs) are among the most common benign skin lesions treated frequently without submitting for histologic examination since malignant degeneration is exceedingly rare. In this case report, we describe an aggressive gross squamous cell carcinoma mass arising from a large pedunculated-type FEP located at the lower limb, which, to our knowledge, has not been reported yet.
Lip augmentation is a well tolerated procedure leading to a more youthful appearance. Augmentation of lips is most frequently performed with autologous tissue, biomaterials, or alloplastic materials. Autologous fat grafting is a simple procedure because of the ease of harvesting and subsequent injection into selected sites. Fat injection is suitable for the bulk of the red lips, but is less effective for the vermilion border. This study was performed to determine why fat injection is less effective for the vermilion border.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
