Skin Diseases and Disorders

Skin is the first line of defense and encounters a variety of microbes. Some pathogenic strains are often the cause of a broad range of infections of the skin and other body systems. These conditions can affect people of all ages and may have different causes, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune reactions, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices.
Gram-positive Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. are responsible for many of the most common skin infections. However, many...
Skin Cancer01:30

Skin Cancer

Skin cancer is a type of cancer that occurs when there is an abnormal growth of skin cells, usually triggered by damage to the DNA within the skin cells. It is primarily caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun or artificial sources like tanning beds. Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer worldwide, and its incidence continues to rise.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC): BCC is the most common type of skin cancer, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in...
Acne Infection01:27

Acne Infection

Acne is a multifactorial skin condition primarily affecting adolescents and young adults, with a global prevalence estimated to exceed 75% in this demographic. The condition is characterized by the formation of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), papules, pustules, nodules, and, in severe cases, cysts, particularly in areas rich in sebaceous glands such as the face, neck, chest, and back. The pathogenesis involves increased sebum production, follicular hyperkeratinization, colonization by...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Eyelid Surgery
  • Oculoplastics

Background:

  • Entropion, an inward turning of the eyelid, is a common condition.
  • It can lead to trichiasis, where eyelashes rub against the eye.
  • Trichiasis can cause significant corneal damage and discomfort.

Observation:

  • A clinical case of recurrent trichiasis following initial entropion surgery is presented.
  • A dermatological punch was utilized as a treatment modality.
  • This approach aimed to definitively eliminate persistent trichiasis.

Findings:

  • The dermatological punch proved to be a quick and straightforward alternative.
  • The method demonstrated positive outcomes in managing persistent trichiasis.
  • This technique is relatively unknown but effective.

Implications:

  • Highlights the importance of considering innovative approaches for recurrent eyelid malpositions.
  • Suggests the dermatological punch as a valuable tool in oculoplastic surgery.
  • Emphasizes the need for exploring novel solutions to challenging clinical scenarios in ophthalmology.
