چکیده

decisions. Because severity scorings differed mainly in diverse estimations of the involved area and induration of the lesions, one may speculate that the divergence might have resulted from the inability of the teledermatologists to see the entire body and to palpate the lesions, or it might have resulted from some flaws of the PASI scoring system for which an interrater variability of up to 8.1 PASI scores has been described. In our study, the interrater variability was very low (Table), indicating that mobile teledermatology is a feasible method for monitoring disease severity in patients with psoriasis. Larger controlled studies are required to evaluate the impact of remote follow-up care on patient empowerment and its influence on the therapeutic outcome.

Surgical management of giant hepatic hemangiomas: complications and review of the literature.

BACKGROUND Hepatic hemangiomas are the most common benign hepatic tumors, and they are usually asymptomatic with normal liver function. When hepatic hemangiomas reach 4 cm, we define them as giant hemangiomas. Treatment options for giant hemangiomas are observation, surgical resection, and transcatheter arterial embolization. The aim of this study was to identify the risk factors for surgical c...
