Single-stage defect repair with latissimus dorsi free flap after extensive resection of terebrant ulcer of the head: three case reports.

Three cases of advanced ulcerating basal cell carcinoma (terebrant ulcer or ulcus terebrans) of the head are reported. Neglected basaliomas had deeply destroyed larger parts of the skull in three women ages 78, 69, and 65 years when the patients were first admitted for treatment. Death due to meningitis, hemorrhage, or brain damage was imminent. Wide resection and coverage by free latissimus dorsi flaps was carried out in single-stage procedures. The latissimus dorsi, a versatile and very reliable free flap with its constant vascular anatomy and long pedicle, is the ideal flap for the coverage of large defects on the head. The donor site can usually be closed primarily, and the functional deficit is acceptable. All three patients recovered completely. Although only palliative resection could be achieved, the procedures could be justified by the increased survival time and gain in quality of life.

Lichen planus follicularis tumidus with cysts and comedones.

The lichen planus follicularis tumidus was described by Belaich et al. in 1977, and we have found 13 cases published so far. We report two cases we have recently seen, one of them with multiple lesions on the head, and the other with a temporo-frontal lesion.

Self-healing juvenile cutaneous mucinosis in a patient with nephroblastoma.

Self-healing juvenile cutaneous mucinosis is characterized by an early age of onset, the presence of plaques and nodules in a characteristic distribution, and rapid onset followed by spontaneous resolution of the lesions within a period of weeks to months. Only four previous cases have been reported. The patient in this study was an 8-year-old child who developed cutaneous lesions characteristic of self-healing juvenile cutaneous mucinosis while undergoing chemotherapy for a nephroblastoma. This is the first case described of self-healing juvenile cutaneous mucinosis associated with a neoplasm.

Psoriasis: utilising the treatment options.

Psoriasis varies so much in severity and clinical pattern that there is no 'best' treatment. Topical treatment with dithranol, tar or wisely used corticosteroids is preferable to systemic treatment, except in severe forms of psoriasis where systemic corticosteroids or antimitotic drugs, especially methotrexate, may be necessary. Photochemotherapy with PUVA has come to stay and can certainly be used as first-line treatment in those with extensive plaque psoriasis who are over 60 years of age. Its role in treating younger patients is still being asssssed, particularly with regard to possible long term side effects, but it is likely that eventually its use will be extended.
