Abstract

Keloids are benign proliferative lesions caused byabnormal healing. Treatment of keloids is verydifficult due to high recurrence rates. In keloids, thereare many treatment modalities that can vary accordingto lesion size, localization, and previous interventions.A 17-year-old female patient presented with aposterior ear keloid that developed after pearcing intoher ear. The shaving excision was treated with a triplecombination consisting of single session intralesionalsteroid injection and daily topical imiquimodapplication for six weeks. Within one year, a verygood response was obtained without recurrence or anyside effect.

Özet

Keloidler, anormal iyileşmenin neden olduğu benign proliferatif lezyonlardır. Keloidlerin tedavisi yüksek nüks oranları nedeniyle çok zordur. Keloidlerde, lezyon büyüklüğüne, lokalizasyonuna ve önceki müdahalelere göre değişebilen birçok tedavi yöntemi vardır. 17 yaşında kadın hasta, kulağına pearcing uygulandıktan sonra gelişen posterior aurikuler keloid ile başvurdu. Shave eksizyon, tek seans intralezyonel steroid enjeksiyonu ve altı hafta boyunca günlük topikal imiquimod uygulamasından oluşan üçlü kombinasyon ile tedavi edildi. Bir yıl içinde nüks veya herhangi bir yan etki olmadan çok iyi bir yanıt elde edildi.
