The cause of ACC is not clear, but inheritance is the most widely accepted cause. We report a rare case of a full-term (37 + 5 weeks) female newborn who showed complete absence of skin in localized areas of the upper and lower extremities. The patient was diagnosed with ACC associated with epidermolysis bullosa (EB; a disease that causes the skin to blister easily) and was initially treated using conservative measures. We applied mupirocin topical ointment and a nonocclusive polyester mesh impregnated with hydrocolloid and petroleum jelly daily. Complete healing of the affected areas occurred after 3 weeks. Managing patients with ACC is often challenging and based on the severity of the lesions, the approach may include both surgical and conservative treatment. Our case report suggests that a conservative approach can be effective for managing certain types of ACC and EB lesions. However, further research is warranted to better understand the pathogenesis and optimal management of this entity.</p>","PeriodicalId":74460,"journal":{"name":"Plastic and aesthetic nursing","volume":"43 3","pages":"149-153"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9737099","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Plastic surgeons continue to debate various methods for performing this operation; however, some of the methods used by plastic surgeons for preoperative marking of the upper eyelid skin may not be suited to the type of incision that should be used on the eyelids of individuals from Kazakhstan. For this reason, the surgery may not achieve the desired results. We conducted a study of patients from Kazakhstan who underwent upper blepharoplasty using a simplified technique for eyelid marking that we developed at our plastic surgery center. We used the Patient-Reported Outcome Measure Questionnaire (PROM-Q) to measure patient satisfaction and the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) to measure scar quality. The results of our study showed that the majority of patients who underwent upper blepharoplasty performed by surgeons using our method of preoperative marking were extremely satisfied with the effect. The patients noted rapid tissue repair and minimal scarring. We concluded that the use of a simplified marking technique can significantly help aesthetic surgeons performing upper blepharoplasty by reducing the risk for negative postoperative effects.</p>","PeriodicalId":74460,"journal":{"name":"Plastic and aesthetic nursing","volume":"43 3","pages":"131-135"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9737097","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
