Abstract

Background: Upper eyelid contracture is a regular occurrence after severe facial burns. Numerous problems, such as corneal ulcers and exposure keratitis, may result from it. It is difficult for plastic surgeons to operate in this situation to preserve worst-case scenarios and enhance palpebral function. Methods: In this piece, we showcase two instances: (1) Eight months after suffering a chemical burn injury, a 26-year-old male was diagnosed with bilateral superior palpebral contracture with iris prolapse. Both eyes' visual acuity was 6/6 - 1/¥. A 75-year-old female patient was identified as having a corneal ulcer and a contracture on her left upper eyelid. Both eyes' visual acuity was 20/6 - 1/¥. In order to restore the top eyelid in both patients, we undertook a contracture release and a full-thickness skin graft. Results: Evaluation five days after surgery revealed no evidence of graft lysis and that the graft had taken nicely. On the patient graft from the second, we discovered shifting, although new epithelization will take place. Both of the patients had good eyelid looks following restoration. Conclusion: Plastic surgeons should be aware of the seriousness of significant burn injuries to the face. Patients must receive appropriate instruction on the significance of avoiding consequences from eyelid contractures. In this instance, creating the top eyelid via a skin graft and contracture release technique made sense. We acknowledge that one of the limitations of our study is the brief observational period of the patient's conditions.

Abstract

Introduction: Because SLE patients receive immunosuppressive and glucocorticoid medication, they are more susceptible to opportunistic infections. Multiple brain abscesses are an extremely uncommon side effect of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Case description: The purpose of this case study is to raise awareness of the 14-year-old girl who reported experiencing weakness in her limbs. A year ago, she received a diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus. Upon physical examination, nervus VII central paresis was discovered; the lower extremities' muscular strength was 3333/2222 and the upper extremities' 3333/2222. A head CT scan revealed findings that were consistent with lupus cerebritis. Multiple ring lesions with extensive edoema were detected by magnetic resonance imaging, raising the possibility of multiple brain abscesses. For six weeks, the patient had intravenous metronidazole and ceftriaxone. The patient was allowed to go home with instructions to keep taking corticosteroids and mycophenolic acid as well as to schedule routine outpatient appointments. This case study aims to raise awareness about the 14-year-old girl who reported experiencing weakness in her limbs. Her condition was identified by specialists as systemic lupus erythematosus a year ago.

Multiple ring lesions with extensive edoema were detected by magnetic resonance imaging, raising the possibility of multiple brain abscesses.

Conclusion: It is critical to being aware that individuals with impaired immune systems should always be suspected of having an opportunistic central nervous system infection when they experience new neurologic symptoms. A brain abscess is a chronic infection of the central nervous system that can arise from a number of risk factors and infection sources. A brain abscess is one of the uncommon side effects of SLE.

Abstract

Background: The Wide Awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet (WALANT) has been reported to offer simpler pre-surgical instruction and assessment, faster operating time, better surgical visualization, shorter hospital stay, fewer complications, and side effects, lower cost, faster postoperative recovery time, better patient's satisfaction, and less pain and discomfort. This study aims to review the pain score in hand surgery using the WALANT technique compared to local anesthesia or general anesthesia with a tourniquet. Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar in March 2021. Eligible randomized-controlled trials (RCTs) and cohort studies comparing injection time, intra-operative, or postoperative pain using Visual Analog Score (VAS) in WALANT and local anesthesia or general anesthesia with tourniquet were included. Results: Five studies (3 RCTs and 2 cohorts) were included in this article, including 645 hand surgeries (376 carpal tunnel syndrome cases, 181 trigger finger cases, 42 cubital tunnel syndrome cases, 44 de Quervain's disease cases, and 2 ganglion cyst cases). Three studies reported a significantly lower VAS in the WALANT group, while the other two studies reported a lower VAS in the WALANT group, but it was not statistically significant. Conclusion: WALANT is still a technique worth considering in hand surgery because of its superiority in minimizing intra-operative and postoperative pain.
