Laser-Assisted Hyaluronic Acid Delivery by Fractional Carbon Dioxide Laser in Facial Skin Remodeling: A Prospective Randomized Split-Face Study in France.

Background And Objectives: Combining the efficacy of ablative fractional carbon dioxide lasers (AFXL) to laser-assisted hyaluronic acid delivery (LAHAD) has not yet been studied. The objective of our study was to evaluate the safety and the efficacy of laser-assisted hyaluronic acid (HA) delivery with AFXL in facial skin remodeling.

Study Design/materials And Methods: We conducted a prospective, double-blinded, randomized split-face study on 20 patients from 30 to 70 years old, with a skin phototype from I to IV.

Human Infection with Orf Virus and Description of Its Whole Genome, France, 2017.

Zoonotic transmission of parapoxvirus from animals to humans has been reported; clinical manifestations are skin lesions on the fingers and hands after contact with infected animals. We report a human infection clinically suspected as being ecthyma contagiosum. The patient, a 65-year-old woman, had 3 nodules on her hands.

[Nodulocystic eruption induced by sorafenib].

Introduction: Sorafenib is a multikinase inhibitor used in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, advanced renal cell carcinoma, and differentiated thyroid carcinoma. Cutaneous adverse events are numerous and occur frequently.

Patients And Methods: We present two cases of nodulocystic lesions associated with comedones in patients treated with sorafenib for hepatocellular carcinoma.

[Pyoderma gangrenosum revealing colonic diverticulitis: Two cases].

Background: The association of pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) with colonic diverticulitis infection (DI) is relatively unknown. Herein, we describe two cases of PG with full recovery after colonic surgery.

Patients And Methods: Case 1: an 83-year-old man presented with lesions on his legs that had been present for several weeks, and a diagnosis of PG was confirmed histologically.

[Capecitabine-induced subacute cutaneous lupus: a case report].

Background: More than 100 drugs have been registered as inducing subacute cutaneous lupus erythematosus (SCLE). Recently, some types of chemotherapy have also been incriminated. If SCLE develops in a setting of neoplasia, two possibilities should be considered: it is either a paraneoplastic syndrome or it is caused by the chemotherapy, thus calling for important decisions on the benefit/risk of stopping potentially effective medication.

[Neuroleptic associated hypothermia: a new case report and study of spontaneous reports to the French pharmacovigilance network].

Introduction: Neuroleptics are the main antipsychotic agents used in psychiatric or medicine departments. The occurrence of hyperthermia, particularly in the context of the neuroleptic malignant syndrome, is a well-known side effect of these treatments. Conversely, the occurrence of hypothermia is less known from clinicians.
