Extravasation of calcium solution is a common adverse event in children in intensive care units. The lack of adequate and timely treatment can lead to important functional sequelae. Here, we report the case of calcium extravasation in a child and we discuss the multiple therapeutic strategies adopted.

Mucormycosis hand infection in poorly controlled diabetic presented as rapidly progressive swelling, redness, pain, and necrosis unresponsive to antibiotics. Prompt diagnosis and aggressive surgery, antifungals, and diabetes management were critical, highlighting the need for early recognition and treatment of mucormycosis in diabetics.

A 63-year-old male presented with a trans-scaphoid lunate dislocation after a ten-foot fall. Internal fixation included placement of a dorsal spanning plate (DSP). One-year follow-up yielded a satisfactory outcome. A rigid DSP is a useful tool in acute perilunate injuries to protect internal fixation constructs and help with injury rehabilitation.

A retrospective study were presented to compare functional and cosmetic outcomes in relation to local flap reconstruction or fingertip replantation in cases of zones I and II amputation. Outcomes were evaluated using Semmens Weinstein monofilament, Weber DiskCriminator, total active motion (TAM) assessment and Michigan Hand Questionnaire after a 1-year follow-up.

Symptomatic malunion of the wrist is one of the most common posttraumatic wrist problems. This study demonstrates three patients with complex malunions of the wrist who benefited from a corrective osteotomy using preplanned 3D-printed patient-specific guides, by experiencing improvement in their wrist function, grip strength and a reduction in pain.

Ossifying fasciitis is a rare benign tumor of heterotopic bone formation within fascial tissue. We present a case of a 23-year-old female with a nontraumatic painful mass of the left proximal thigh identified as ossifying fasciitis, a lesion that must be considered in the differential diagnosis of soft tissue tumors.

We present a case of a two-stage reconstruction of a traumatic right upper helix deformity using a random pattern layover skin flap in conjunction with an aesthetic facelift procedure. This serves to encourage reconstructive surgeons to be mindful about seeking opportunities to address additional patient concerns when appropriate and safe.

Conjunctival chemosis usually undergoes spontaneous resolution; sometimes, it requires treatment. We present the case of a 43 years-old female patient who developed bilateral conjunctival chemosis following upper and lower blepharoplasty. Two months after the operation, patient underwent bilateral snip conjunctivoplasty with methylene blue demarcation of the chemotic conjunctiva.

Post-surgical pyoderma gangrenosum (P SP G) is a subtype of pyoderma gangrenosum in which non-infectious, painful, inflammatory ulcerative nodules develop in incision sites. Delayed diagnosis and surgical interventions of P SP G often contribute to worsened morbidity. We present a case of a 55-year-old female diagnosed with severe P SP G after breast augmentation and abdominoplasty.

We herein report a case of refractory lymphatic ascites after uterine cancer surgery treated with bilateral inguinal lymphaticovenular anastomosis (LVA). LVA was performed four months after the uterine cancer surgery in a patient with refractory ascites that had developed one month after the gynecologic surgery. One year and eight months after LVA, there was no recurrence of ascites accumulation.
