Tendinocutaneous free flap transfer to cover an extensive skin-tendon defect of the dorsum of the hand: case report.

The combined loss of skin and tendons after avulsion or degloving injuries continues to be a challenging problem. A 51-year-old man sustained an extensive avulsion injury of the dorsal hand. He underwent reconstruction with a vascularized tendinocutaneous free flap transfer from the dorsum of the foot and was followed for over a year. The functional and aesthetic results were satisfactory.

Pseudocyst of the auricle: case reports and its biochemical characteristics.

Pseudocyst of the auricle is a rare, asymptomatic cystic swelling of the auricle resulting from accumulation of yellow viscous fluid with unknown cause. We herein report 3 such patients in whom biochemical study of the aspirated fluid revealed markedly elevated activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and a preponderance of LDH-4 and LDH-5. We postulate that pseudocyst formation is due to the disruption of the auricular cartilage and that LDH in the fluid is released from the auricular cartilage. This observation supports that the lesions represent a pattern of chondromalacia. It is hypothesized that the cause of such pseudocysts is repeated minor trauma.

A case of cystic dermal duct tumor corresponding to poroid hidradenoma.

A case of dermal duct tumor on the back of a 61-year-old male, representing a cystic lesion, is reported. Such cystic dermal duct tumors seem to be considered poroid hidradenomas according to the recently suggested classification of poromas. Poroid hidradenoma is rarely mentioned in the literature, and no description of its clinical features has yet been published. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) immunostaining was positive in the tumor cells adjacent to the cystic space. We suppose that these CEA-positive cells were associated with cyst formation in our case.
