D2 Flashcards
Clinical manifestation of keratoacanthoma?
Rapidly growing nodule with ulceration and keratin plug
Often show spontaneous regression and resolution
Common in fair skin individual
Commonly involve UV exposure and trauma site
Clinical significance?
may resemble or progress to SSC
managment?
Excisional biopsy with complete mass removal
SCC-Ca risk?
UV light
Chronic skin ulcer
Scared/inflamed skin
If occur secondary to burn wound called Marjolein ulcer
radiotherapy and osteomyelitis site are also risk
visual assessment of a pigmented lesion for melanoma?
AbCDE(>=1-2 from below) Asymmetry Border irregularity Color variation Diameter > 6 mm Evolving appearance over time
other criteria(7 point checklist and Ugley duckling sign)?
7PC
>=1 major and >=3 minor criteria
MjC: Change in shape, size, or color
MiC:>7 mm size, local inflammation, crusting/bleeding, and sensory symptom
UDS
One lesion significantly different from other
Most important prognostic factor in melanoma?
Breslow depth(Distance from granular layer to the tumor depth point)
Nodular malignant melanoma caracterstich?
Grow vertically
nodular lesion on a sun-exposed area
Deeply rpigmented,asymmetric & uniform color
ABCD criteria are not good for assessment
suspect in case of .>1 from the following (Ugley duckling sign, elevation from around tissue, firm palpation, and continuous growth)
Basal cell carcinoma risk factor?
Sun/Uv light
fair/light skin
Ionizing radiation
Arsenic poisoning
CM?
Slowly growing Locally invasive Rare metastasis Pink/flesh-colored Pearly papule Translucent Central Telagectasis
Diagnosis?
Narrow margin 2-3 mm excisional biopsy
In the cosmetic area Mohs micrographic surgery
Sample taking in melanoma?
Excisional biopsy
2-3 mm from normal tissue
Full-thickness
But in the face and another important area, an incisional biopsy can considerd
Risk of Hidradinitis superlativa?
Smoking Obesity DM Family history Mechanical stress
pathogenesis of Hidradenitis suppurativa?
Chronic inflammation of pilosebaceous unit-disable keratinocyte shedding from follicular epithilium
CM?
Involve intertriginous /hair area
Solitary, Inflamed, Painful nodule
Chronic relapsing and remitting course
Can become purulent and drain serosangious fluid
Complication?
Scaring
Sinus
Comedone
Risk factor for pressure ulcers other than immobilization?
Malnutrition
Dementia
Decrease skin perfusion
Decrease sensation
Indication for imaging in diabetic foot ulcers for osteomyelitis suspicion?
Deep wound > 14-day stay >2 cm increase CRP/ESR associated adjacent ST involvement
Burn wound infection sign?
Sign of sepsis Progression of wound stage Loss of graft tissue Confusion Decrease urine output Thrombocytopenia
The pattern of infection etiology?
Usually multi bacterial
<5 days: G+Ve–S.Aureus
>5 days: G-Ve –Pseudomonas
What to do?
Quantitative wound culture
Biopsy(To determine depth)
managment?
Broad-spectrum(carpapenem)+
Vancomycin(MRSA)
Pseudomonas should be covered(Aminoglycoside)
wound care and debridement
more common in?
wound >20 %
CM of pyoderma gangrenusum?
Begin with papule and pustule Rapidly progressive Painful ulcer purulent base Vioulacious border Pathergy(precipitation at site of trauma)
Epidemiology of PG?
Common in age 40-60 and in women
Associated with: IBD.Other inflammatory Diseases (like RA) and malignancy
Diagnosis?
Is a diagnosis of exclusion
Biopsy: Neutrophilic infiltration
Management?
Topical/systemic corticosteroid
Surgical debridement should be avoided(pathergy)
CM of squamous carsinoma of skine?
Scaly nodule/plaque
+-hyperkeratosis/ulceration
Nurologic sign(if PN involvment)
SCC in situ:Red,slowley growing patch/plaque.
Involve below and lower Lip(At vermilion border)
Diagnosis?
Dysplastic/anaplastic keratinocyte with keratin pilare
Adverse prognosis sign?
Large size
Deep involvemnt
Regional LN involvment
