Abstract

MARTINEZ VALDEZ, Guillermo et al. Alternatives for Acne Conglobata Surgical Treatment. ccm [online]. 2018, vol.22, n.1, pp. 04-15. ISSN 1560-4381.

Introduction:  acnes conglobata, a specific form of acnes with comedons, nodules, abscess, cysts, fistulae and cicatrix. Lesions segregate a fetid fluid with espousal resolution and polymorph. They increase size during evolution and have no resolution capacity through the treatment. For aesthetics, the cicatrix and inflammation, are scientific matters of investigation for dermatologist and plastic surgeons. Objective: to organize surgical alternatives and their results, in the context of treatment of conglobata acnes. Method: an experimental study from 2000 to 2014 in Holguín and Granma provinces, where thirty patients with conglobata acnes were found. During their evolution we could realize the lesions that required plastic surgery, and the ones for dermatological treatment. Result: the lesions with positive to treatment were comedons, papules inflamed hyperthrophic, a little cystic (lest 1 cm) and atrophic scars. Plastic surgery criteria were determined. The patients with lesions were distributed. The ones with clinical complications and lesions stated.  A multidisciplinary intervention to identify the cases early staid and surgery treatment for plastic surgery with lest bloody techniques was accomplished. Conclusion: more aesthetic results, surgery treatment with less aggressive techniques, a short time stay in the hospital and other complications.
