Abstract. BACKGROUND. Radiotherapy as an adjuvant therapy to surgical resection has shown variable rates of recurrence treating earlobe keloids. The purpose of this study was to describe our experience with surgical excision followed by high-dose-rate brachytherapy and present our outcomes after 24 months of follow-up. METHODS.
After the surgery, the follow-up period ranged from 10 to 29 months (mean: 15.93 months) and patients were given TA intralesional injections 3 to 6 times (mean: 4.22 times) with no complication or adverse effect. Of the treated keloids, success was achieved in all of 31 keloids (100%) and final evaluation revealed that the mean Kyoto scar scale ...
Common side effects include permanent hypo- and hyperpigmentation, blistering, and postoperative pain [34], and a delay of approximately 3–4 weeks between sessions (approximately three to six sessions are needed) is often needed for post treatment healing [35, 36].
24 Μαΐ 2024 · A total of 36 earlobe keloids in four eligible studies were treated with excision and imiquimod 5% cream, starting on the day of surgery, and applied to either open or sutured wound [50,51,52,53]. Night-time use of approximately 8 hours per day for 6 to 8 weeks was a common instruction.
31 Μαρ 2021 · Side effects of radiation can be grouped into acute side effects, related to the total dose of radiation, and late side effects, related to the dose given per fraction. 8 Acute changes include erythema, edema, and pain, and typically occur within the first days to weeks after treatment.
10 Δεκ 2019 · Non-malignancy-related side effects of our keloid radiotherapy protocol. Radiotherapy also associates with a number of benign side effects, including telangiectasia, hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation.
10 Δεκ 2019 · Keloids can be treated in a number of ways, including by surgery. Multiple studies now show that while surgical monotherapy associates with extremely high rates of recurrence (50%-80%), postoperative radiotherapy can significantly reduce these recurrence rates.
