Debulking surgery after muscular paraffin oil injections: Effects on calcium homeostasis and patient satisfaction.

Objective: Cosmetic paraffin oil injections can lead to granuloma formation causing hypercalcemia and kidney failure. This study explores whether debulking surgery is an effective treatment for improving calcium homeostasis, inflammation and clinical symptoms.

Materials And Methods: In a retrospective study, we reviewed 33 patients undergoing debulking surgery.

Disturbances of the nail apparatus are common and mainly benign. This review aims to investigate the aetiology of these disturbances, which range from more common benign causes to less common melanomas. Melanonychia may be the most prominent concern and is characterised by brown or black nail plate discoloration.

[Benign skin tumours].

Benign skin tumours are commonly seen by general practitioners. They are important to differentiate from skin malignancies. Most benign skin lesions are diagnosed based on the history and clinical features.

[Immunosuppressive therapy and post-operative wound healing].

Patients in immunosuppressive treatment may have increased risk of post-operative infections and wound-healing complications. Perioperative management of immunosuppressive treatment is challenging due to the variety of medications and differences in surgical procedures across surgical specialities. This review examines the literature regarding the effect of immunosuppressive treatment on post-operative infections and wound-healing complications.
