Publication Metadata only Traumatic Avulsion of Upper Eyelid Skin Following Surgery in a Patient With Multiple Myeloma and Amyloid Light-chain Amyloidosis(2020-09-01T00:00:00Z) ERGÜN, SELMA; ZENGİN, SENİYYE ÜLGEN; ÜNAL, Mustafa; YILDIZ, PELİN; ERGÜN, SELMA; ÜNAL, MUSTAFA; YILDIZ, PELİNMultiple myeloma (MM) is a common hematologic malignancy. Primary systemic amyloidosis or amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis is a rare disease. PURPOSE: This article presents the case of a patient with MM and AL amyloidosis who experienced a severe case of medical adhesive-related skin injury. CASE STUDY: A 64-year-old man with MM, AL amyloidosis, and diabetes presented with a necrotic wound on his left heel that required surgical debridement. The patient experienced a traumatic avulsion of the right upper eyelid skin during the removal of the corneal abrasion preventive tape as well as traumatic avulsion of the left upper eyelid skin while the patient-s face was being cleansed. The avulsed right upper eyelid skin above the tarsus was repaired with a full-thickness skin graft. The partly avulsed left upper eyelid skin was repositioned, and an excisional biopsy was taken. Both upper eyelids healed uneventfully. The biopsy specimen revealed increased amyloid deposition in the dermis, subcutaneous tissue, and areas surrounding the veins and sweat glands. CONCLUSION: This case illustrates the increased risk of medical adhesive-related skin injury and other skin damage in patients with MM and AL amyloidosis. In these patients, the use of tape should be avoided to prevent intraoperative corneal abrasion.Publication Metadata only Benign prostat hiperplazisinin cerrahi tedavisi sonrası tanı konulan insidental prostat kanseri(2021-10-01T00:00:00Z) İlktaç, Abdullah; Ersöz, Cevper; Doğan, Bayram; Akçay, Muzaffer; Yıldız, Pelin; Çoban, Ganime; Akbulut, Habib; İLKTAÇ, ABDULLAH; ERSÖZ, CEVPER; DOĞAN, BAYRAM; AKÇAY, MUZAFFER; YILDIZ, PELİN; ÇOBAN, GANİME; AKBULUT, HABİB
