BACKGROUND Circumcision is commonly performed in males, especially in Jewish and Muslim cultures, and is considered a safe surgical procedure with a low complication rate. Major complications, such as partial and total penile amputation, can occur, but those are rare complications. However, high replantation success rates have been reported and reviewed.

Autologous tissue reconstruction sternal cleft: a rare congenital malformation.

Sternal clefts are rare congenital chest-wall deformities, which can be complete or incomplete; therefore, reconstruction with autologous tissue is essential to protect the heart and prevent respiratory infection. In this report, we present the case of a 16-month-old baby girl from a preterm, twin pregnancy with a partial superior sternal cleft. A moist dressing for promoting wound healing was used until cutaneous layer complete epithelialization at which time we performed reconstruction with autologous tissue.

Combination of fractional carbon dioxide laser and topical triamcinolone vs intralesional triamcinolone for keloid treatment: A randomised clinical trial.

To compare the therapeutic effect of fractional carbon dioxide (CO ) laser + topical triamcinolone (TA) with intralesional TA on keloids. Twenty-two participants were randomised into two groups: group A, treated with fractional CO laser + topical TA, and group B, treated with intralesional TA. The interventions were performed at every 4-week interval until the keloids were resolved or at the completion of 1 year.
