    Abstract Apligraf (Organogenesis, Canton, MA) is a bi-layered bioengineered skin substitute and was the first engineered skin US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved to promote the healing of ulcers that have failed standard wound care. Constructed by culturing human foreskin-derived neonatal fibroblasts in a bovine type I collagen matrix over which human foreskin-derived neonatal epidermal keratinocytes are then cultured and allowed to stratify, Apligraf provides both cells and matrix for the nonhealing wound. Its exact mechanism of action is not known, but it is known to produce cytokines and growth factors similar to healthy human skin. Initially approved by the FDA in 1998 for the treatment of venous ulcers greater than one-month duration that have not adequately responded to conventional therapy, Apligraf later received approval in 2000 for treatment of diabetic foot ulcers of greater than three weeks duration. Herein, we review the use of Apligraf in the treatment of chronic venous leg ulcers and diabetic foot ulcers. Our goal is to provide a working understanding of appropriate patient selection and proper use of the product for any physician treating this segment of the aging population.

    Abstract Background: Many physicians believe that buffering local anesthetics with sodium bicarbonate is the best technique for reducing the pain and discomfort associated with subcutaneous infiltration.
    Objective: To compare the level of pain and discomfort associated with subcutaneous infiltration of lidocaine diluted with normal saline to that associated with traditionally buffered lidocaine.
    Patients/methods: In a prospective, double-blind trial, 31 patients were asked to use a visual analog scale to rank the level of pain and discomfort caused by two different solutions of lidocaine with epinephrine. Solution A: 3 mL of 1% lidocaine + epinephrine in 30 mL of bacteriostatic 0.9% sodium chloride in a 1:10 ratio, in which each mL contained 9 mg of sodium chloride and 9 mg of benzyl alcohol. Solution B: 5 mL of 8.4% sodium bicarbonate solution and 50 mL of 1% lidocaine + epinephrine in a 1:10 ratio.
    Results: Twenty-eight out of 31 patients reported that the solution of lidocaine diluted with normal saline was the least painful upon injection.
    Conclusion: Pain and discomfort during subcutaneous injection of lidocaine can be reduced by diluting the anesthetic with normal saline in a 1:10 ratio.

    Abstract Background: High-risk cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is an aggressive tumor with a significant rate of metastasis, especially nodal, and deaths yearly. Sentinel lymphadenectomy may be a valuable adjunct in the treatment of patients with cutaneous SCC at high risk for metastases with a clinical N0 status.
    Objective: To report the clinical and pathologic features in nine patients who underwent this procedure at a tertiary-care cancer center.
    Methods: Since 1995, a total of nine patients from the Cutaneous Oncology Program at the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center received preoperative lymphoscintigraphy and sentinel lymphadenectomy for high-risk cutaneous SCC with a clinical N0 status.
    Results: Histologically positive nodes were found in 4 of 9 cases (44%). Two of the four patients with positive sentinel nodes died of metastatic disease within 2 years. All five patients with negative sentinel nodes are alive and well at a median follow-up of 8 months (mean of 13 months). Preoperative lymphoscintigraphy and sentinel lymphadenectomy were well tolerated by all patients.
    Conclusion: In this small series of predominantly trunk and extremity high-risk SCCs, sentinel lymph node biopsy was technically feasible with low morbidity. Sentinel lymphadenectomy may prove to have an important role in the management of high-risk cutaneous SCC with a clinical N0 status.
