Mashup Score: 10Drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome/drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms. Part II diagnosis and management - 2 day(s) ago
Drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome, also known as drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms, is a severe cutaneous adverse reaction characterized by an exanthem, fever, and hematologic and visceral organ involvement. The differential diagnosis includes other cutaneous adverse reactions, infections, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, and neoplastic disorders. Three sets of diagnostic criteria have been proposed; however, consensus is lacking. The cornerstone of management is immediate discontinuation of the suspected drug culprit.

Mashup Score: 10Use of hemostatic clips to reduce blood loss in between Mohs micrographic surgery stages - 14 day(s) ago
During Mohs micrographic surgery on the scalp, intraoperative hemostasis often requires the use of hemostats, figure-of-eight sutures, or electrosurgery. Hemostat and a figure-of-eight suture placement can be cumbersome in this location and pose difficulty in controlling diffuse bleeding,1 and electrosurgery can create a devitalized wound bed.

Mashup Score: 69Subcision modification to prevent intraoperative blood spillage and to keep the needle aligned - 16 day(s) ago
The traditional subcision is often associated with the spurting of blood from the needle hub and rotation of the beveled end of the needle. These issues lead to obscuring the operative field, the need for an assistant, increase procedure time, and rarely ineffective subcision. Various modifications like bending the needle, holding the needle with artery forceps, and marking the needle have been reported in the past to prevent the rotation of the needle.
