Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia is a rare and benign vascular tumor
whose etiology remains uncertain. It clinically presents itself by angiomatous
papules or nodules located on the head and neck. Many controversies in the
literature are found in relation to angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia
and Kimura's disease - its main differential diagnosis - due to their clinical
and histopathological similarities. However, currently, most studies agree that
they are distinct diseases. The present case illustrates a characteristic
description of angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia and also highlights
the main differences with Kimura's disease.
Aesthetic treatment with hyaluronic acid (HA)-based fillers has shown a growing demand and becoming a choice as an option in minimally invasive rejuvenation, either as a volumizer in cases of tissue loss, facial contouring with definition or correction of rhytids. 1,2 As the HA injections had increased, the reports of adverse events related to it also raised. The first-line treatment of these undesirable effects is hyaluronidase (HYAL). 3,4 HYAL is a natural enzyme that degrades hyaluronic acid and can be used in the management of the majority of adverse events related to the use of this filler, such as overcorrections like nodules and bumps, Tyndall effect or late nodules, and even more severe complications as tissue ischemia. 1,5 This study aims to describe the safety and effectiveness of the use of HYAL in the correction of undesirable results of hyaluronic acid fillers in 114 patients in private dermatologic practice.
| MATERIAL S AND ME THODSA retrospective study of 114 patients submitted to the application of HYAL (hyaluronidase 2.000 UI, BIOMETIL tm ) was performed to correct unaesthetic effects after filler injections on the face. Cases were selected from a private clinic from June 2015 to November 2018 by reviewing charts and analyzing photographic documentation, and the following data were evaluated: age, gender, the indication of use, the anatomical unit involved, number of sessions, amount of HYAL used, and adverse effects after the application of

Vascular lesions such as hemangiomas can be found in the oral cavity. Some therapeutic modalities can be used in the treatment of these lesions and Nd:YAG 1064 nm long pulse laser shows good results with easy application, fewer complications and satisfactory results. This study describes the technique and outcome of a case of hemangioma located on the tongue treated with Nd:YAG laser.
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.
