Abstract

Dermoscopy refers to evaluation of the skin surface using surface microscopy. It is mainly used for the diagnosis of skin disorders. We report two cases in which dermoscopy played a role in treatment. Our first case was a 40-year-old female with history of insect bite. We evaluated the patient using a dermoscope and removed the tick with mouth part embedded in dermis using forceps ensuring full removal after procedure. The second case was a 35-year-old female who presented with a non-healing ulcer over lower back, following excision of epidermoid cyst. Dermoscopy showed the presence of a thread which was removed and repeat dermoscopy following extraction ensured its full removal.

皮肤镜的诊断外使用：两个病例的报告

皮肤镜检查是指使用表面显微镜对皮肤表面进行评估。它主要用于皮肤疾病的诊断。我们报告了两例皮肤镜在治疗中发挥作用的病例。第一个病例是一名 40 岁的女性，有昆虫叮咬史。我们使用皮肤镜对患者进行了评估，并用镊子取出了口部嵌入真皮层的蜱虫，确保术后完全清除。第二个病例是一名 35 岁的女性，在表皮样囊肿切除术后出现下背部溃疡，无法愈合。皮肤镜检查显示存在一根线头，将其取出后，再次进行皮肤镜检查，确保线头完全去除。
