Transungual Excision of Glomus Tumors: A Treatment and Quality of Life Study
BACKGROUND
Glomus tumors are rare benign painful tumors, frequently found in the subungual region. Complete surgical excision is essential for relief of symptoms. The main postoperative complications are tumor recurrence and nail dystrophy.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the long-term outcome and the impact on quality of life (QoL) of glomus tumors after a transungual approach.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A retrospective cohort study was conducted. Twenty-six patients underwent transungual excision of subungual glomus tumors. A self-administered questionnaire was sent to evaluate the postoperative outcome. Glomus tumor-related Qo...

Efficacy, Safety, and Subject Satisfaction After AbobotulinumtoxinA Treatment for Moderate to Severe Glabellar Lines
BACKGROUND
The aesthetic use of botulinum toxins is widely accepted in routine treatment of glabellar lines.
OBJECTIVE
To strengthen existing efficacy and safety data, and examine subject satisfaction concerning abobotulinumtoxinA (ABO) treatment for moderate to severe glabellar lines.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A 150-day prospective, single-dose, multicenter, randomized, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, double-blind study of 300 subjects treated with ABO (50 Units [U]). Response was defined as having no or mild glabellar lines after treatment (primary objective was Day 30 response). Glabellar line severity, onset an...

OnabotulinumtoxinA for Simultaneous Treatment of Upper Facial Lines: Subject-Reported Satisfaction and Impact From a Phase 3 Study
BACKGROUND
Patient-reported outcomes are increasingly recognized as important measures of treatment benefit.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate subject-reported satisfaction and impact outcomes with onabotulinumtoxinA treatment in neurotoxin-naive adults with forehead lines (FHL), glabellar lines (GL), and crow's feet lines (CFL).
METHODS
This Phase 3 study randomized 787 subjects to onabotulinumtoxinA 64 U (FHL 20 U, GL 20 U, and CFL 24 U), 40 U (FHL 20 U, GL 20 U, and CFL placebo), or placebo in double-blind Period 1. Subjects could receive up to 2 additional 64 U treatments in open-label Period 2. Patient-reported outcomes w...

Surgical Volume of Dermatologists Who Do Not Perform Mohs Micrographic Dermatologic Surgery: A Cross-Sectional Individual-Level Analysis Using Medicare Data
CONCLUSION
Dermatologists who do not perform MDS represent the single largest group billing Medicare for benign excisions, malignant excisions, and intermediate repairs. They also bill for more complex repairs than all non-dermatologists combined. Micrographic dermatologic surgery–performing dermatologists performed most of the complex repairs, flaps, and grafts billed to Medicare. (Source: Dermatologic Surgery)
