Abstract Treatment of earwax often involves the use of a wax softening agent (cerumenolytic) with or without antimicrobial agents to easily removing. Cerumenolytic agents used to remove and soften earwax areoil-based treatments, water-based treatments. Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is a well- defined, circular, hyperpigmented plaque that usually occurs on the trunk, hands mucosal surfaces, after a systemical application of drugs. In this report, a case with FDE developed after a cerumenolytic agent (hydrogen peroxide and boric acid in water). A definitive diagnosis was made with skin punch biopsy and FDE was treated with oral levocetirizine and topical mometasone. Introduction is a well-defined, circular, hyper pigmenting plaque that usually Cerumen production is a normal and protective process occurs on the genitals, lips, trunk, and hands and the diagnosis for the external ear canal (EAC), but impact of cerumen causes can be confirmed by histopathologic examination of a small punch symptoms such as hearing loss, itching, pain, tinnitus [1]. Cerumen biopsy specimen [5]. In this report, a case with FDE developed after impaction is defined as an accumulation of cerumen in the a cerumenolytic agent (hydrogen peroxide and boric acid in water) external ear [2].

  • Reconstructive
    RECONSTRUCTIVE Muscle versus Nonmuscle Flaps in the Reconstruction of Chronic Osteomyelitis Defects Christopher J. Salgado, Background: Surgical treatment of chronic osteomyelitis requires aggressive M.D. debridement followed by wound coverage and obliteration of dead space with Samir Mardini, M.D. vascularized tissue. Controversy remains as to the effectiveness of different tissue Amir A. Jamali, M.D. types in achieving these goals and in the eradication of disease. Juan Ortiz, M.D. Methods: Chronic osteomyelitis was induced in 26 goat tibias using Staphylo- Raoul Gonzales, D.V.M., coccus aureus as an infecting inoculum. In a single stage, debridement followed Ph.D. by reconstruction using either a muscle flap (n ϭ 13) or a fasciocutaneous flap Hung-Chi Chen, M.D. (n ϭ 13) was performed. Flap donor sites were closed primarily and antibiotics El Paso, Texas; Kaohsiung, Taiwan; were given for 5 days postoperatively. Daily clinical evaluation for 1 year was and Sacramento, Calif. performed and monthly radiographs were obtained for 9 months and 1 year after the reconstruction. Results: Twenty-five flaps survived completely, and one nonmuscle flap under- went partial flap loss following a period of venous congestion. There were no postoperative complications in the muscle flap group. Two goats (15 percent) in the nonmuscle group developed superficial wounds in the immediate post- operative period that resolved with conservative management. No limbs had recurrent osteomyelitis wounds at 1 year of clinical follow-up examination. Radiographic evidence of osteomyelitis was present in two goats (15 percent) in the muscle group and one goat (8 percent) in the nonmuscle group.

  • (TECA) Surgery
    Audit of Total Ear Canal Ablation-Lateral Bulla Osteotomy Procedures Performed by One Surgeon Audit project lead: D G Bentley Subject/area of practice: Surgery/Dermatology Date: January 2nd 2018 Reasons for Audit: To determine how complication rate of this procedure, both short and long term, compare with that in recently published literature and to be sure this procedure should be still be offered in-house rather than being referred to a surgical specialist. Background Total Ear Canal Ablation-Lateral Bulla Osteotomy (TECA-LBO) procedures on dogs (and cats) have been performed by this surgeon since 1991 and since that time over 260 procedures have been performed. The surgeon also runs a dermatology service with special interest in ear disease and wishes to provide a complete service whereby cases that are beyond medical treatment can go to surgery without being referred to a specialist surgeon. Indications for TECA-LBO are “end stage otitis”, where there is chronic irreversible change to the ear canal, intractable ear infections particularly as a result of middle ear infection and changes in the vicinity of the tympanic membrane/lower horizontal ear canal, and tumours in the ear canal which cannot be dealt with either by Lateral Wall Resection or Vertical Canal Ablation. Also sometimes, due to financial reasons, a client may prefer surgery to lengthy courses of treatment, requiring several anaesthetics and ear flushings, with no guarantee of success at the outset. The surgeon first learnt the technique that was published in video format in the “In Practice” series around 1991. This involved the use of an osteotome to separate the ear canal from the bulla and also looking for the facial nerve and pulling it out of the way using penrose drain material.

    Anesth Pain Med 2011; 6: 270~274 ■Case Report■ Femoral and sciatic nerve blocks for total knee replacement in an obese patient with a previous history of failed endotracheal intubation −A case report− Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, School of Medicine, Catholic University of Daegu, Daegu, Korea Jong Hae Kim, Woon Seok Roh, Jin Yong Jung, Seok Young Song, Jung Eun Kim, and Baek Jin Kim Peripheral nerve block has frequently been used as an alternative are situations in which spinal or epidural anesthesia cannot be to epidural analgesia for postoperative pain control in patients conducted, such as coagulation disturbances, sepsis, local undergoing total knee replacement. However, there are few reports infection, immune deficiency, severe spinal deformity, severe demonstrating that the combination of femoral and sciatic nerve blocks (FSNBs) can provide adequate analgesia and muscle decompensated hypovolemia and shock. Moreover, factors relaxation during total knee replacement. We experienced a case associated with technically difficult neuraxial blocks influence of successful FSNBs for a total knee replacement in a 66 year-old the anesthesiologist’s decision to perform the procedure [1]. In female patient who had a previous cancelled surgery due to a failed tracheal intubation followed by a difficult mask ventilation for 50 these cases, peripheral nerve block can provide a good solution minutes, 3 days before these blocks. FSNBs were performed with for operations on a lower extremity. The combination of 50 ml of 1.5% mepivacaine because she had conditions precluding femoral and sciatic nerve blocks (FSNBs) has frequently been neuraxial blocks including a long distance from the skin to the used for postoperative pain control after total knee replacement epidural space related to a high body mass index and nonpalpable lumbar spinous processes.
