  • angiokeratoma circumscriptum naeviforme successful treatment with Carbon Dioxide Laser vaporization
    Dermatologic Surgery, 2005
    Co-Authors: Jesús Pozo, Eduardo Fonseca
    Abstract:

    Background Angiokeratoma circumscriptum naeviforme (ACN) is an unusual type of localized angiokeratoma that occurs more frequently in females and is usually located on the buttocks or thighs, showing a unilateral distribution. ACN usually causes large lesions, which may require Laser ablation because they often are too extensive to perform surgical excision. Carbon-Dioxide Laser is a known alternative for treating angiokeratomas. Objective Report of two cases of ACN treated with Carbon-Dioxide Laser vaporization. Patients and methods A 28-year-old woman with a hyperkeratotic, violaceus plaque on her left buttock and a 24-year-old woman with a similar lesion on her right buttock were treated with a Carbon-Dioxide Laser. Two Laser passes were performed on each lesion within a single session. Results A successful cosmetic aspect of treated areas was obtained, with minimal pigmentary or textural changes. After a 2-year follow-up in the first patient and a 6-month follow-up in the second patient, no recurrence of the lesions was observed. Conclusions Our results, obtaining relevant cosmetic improvement after a few sessions of treatment, with low morbidity and minimal secondary effects, suggest that continuous-wave Carbon-Dioxide Laser vaporization is a safe and effective treatment for ACN.

  • Erythroplasia of Queyrat with urethral involvement: treatment with Carbon Dioxide Laser vaporization.
    Dermatologic surgery : official publication for American Society for Dermatologic Surgery [et al.], 2005
    Co-Authors: Jesús Pozo Del Losada, Asunción Ferré, Begoña San Román, Vanessa Vieira, Eduardo Fonseca
    Abstract:

    Erythroplasia of Queyrat is an uncommon carcinoma in situ that usually arises on the mucosa of the glans penis or prepuce as red, shiny, sharply demarcated velvety plaques. The treatment is often difficult and associated with significant recurrence rates, especially in cases with urethral involvement. To evaluate Carbon Dioxide Laser treatment in a case of erythroplasia of Queyrat with urethral involvement. We report a patient with erythroplasia of Queyrat involving the urethra who was treated with Carbon Dioxide Laser vaporization. Treatment with Carbon Dioxide Laser vaporization resulted in an excellent cosmetic and functional status outcome for the glans penis and urethral lesions. Carbon Dioxide Laser vaporization is probably the initial elective treatment for erythroplasia of Queyrat with urethral involvement in young immunocompetent patients. A follow-up is necessary, and new sessions of treatment should be quickly performed if recurrence occurs.

  • Surgical treatment of ranula with Carbon Dioxide Laser radiation
    Lasers in Medical Science, 2004
    Co-Authors: W. Niccoli-filho, A. R. C. Morosolli
    Abstract:

    Ranula is a mucous extravasation cyst which appears as a swelling in the submental and submandibular regions. Several surgical techniques to manage ranula have been described in the literature, these techniques include the CO_2 Laser radiation excision. Four patients were treated for intraoral ranula in the floor of the mouth by marsupialization with Carbon Dioxide Laser radiation with defocused beam, continuous mode and 4 watts of power. There were no complications and no recurrences have occurred to date. The results showed that Carbon Dioxide Laser radiation gives optimal results with no need for suture and good wound healing.
