A super thin DIEP flap can effectively reconstruct scalp defects with good skin coverage and contour.
research Editorial comments
Some patients experience temporary hair loss after ulcerative colitis surgery, likely due to illness rather than the surgery itself, and it usually grows back within six months.
research From local to systemic: endoscopic findings reshape the diagnostic paradigm of satoyoshi syndrome – a case report
This case report describes a 50-year-old woman diagnosed with Satoyoshi syndrome (SS) through distinctive endoscopic findings, including severe atrophic gastritis with cystic polyps and duodenal villous atrophy. These findings, along with a low-grade gastric foveolar-type adenoma and a 22q11.21 microdeletion, suggest a genetic susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. The patient also exhibited symptoms of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and had a history of generalized alopecia, muscle spasms, and other systemic symptoms. The report emphasizes the importance of endoscopic evaluation in diagnosing complex conditions like SS and highlights the need for future targeted therapies, as current treatments showed limited improvement.
