Article Synopsis
- - The text discusses techniques for reconstructing significant defects in the upper half of the external ear after cancer surgery in elderly patients.
- - It recommends single-stage procedures for reconstruction instead of multiple surgeries, focusing on efficiency and patient comfort.
- - Utilizing flaps with good blood supply, such as the revolving door post-auricular flap and mastoid advancement flap, offers a promising method for creating a durable ear shape in one surgery.
Background: Ex vivo confocal microscopy using fusion mode and digital staining (EVCM) scans unfixed fresh tissue and produces rapidly digitally stained images of very similar quality to classical pathology. We investigated whether EVCM could represent an alternative to the standard histological examination of the pretherapeutic basal cell carcinoma (BCC) punch biopsies.
Objectives: The objective of the study was to assess diagnostic accuracy of EVCM versus traditional histopathological examination for diagnosing and subtyping clinically suspicious lesions of BCC in 3-mm fresh and nonfixed punch biopsies.
