    Abstract We report 2 patients who underwent Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) and operative closure on the ear. Both cases were complicated by necrosis resulting in the formation of auricular defects. These cases highlight the importance of the auricular vasculature and the associated watershed regions during operative planning for MMS as well as the complications that can arise with vascular compromise. This case report also provides a review of the auricular vasculature with special attention to these vulnerable watershed regions.

    Abstract The role of adipose tissue (AT) inflammation in obesity and its multiple related-complications is a rapidly expanding area of scientific interest. Within the last 30 years, the role of the adipocyte as an endocrine and immunologic cell has been progressively established. Like the macrophage, the adipocyte is capable of linking the innate and adaptive immune system through the secretion of adipokines and cytokines; exosome release of lipids, hormones, and microRNAs; and contact interaction with other immune cells. Key innate immune cells in AT include adipocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, and innate lymphoid cells type 2 (ILC2s). The role of the innate immune system in promoting adipose tissue inflammation in obesity will be highlighted in this review. T cells and B cells also play important roles in contributing to AT inflammation and are discussed in this series in the chapter on adaptive immunity.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are increasingly identified on abdominal imaging. Given the malignant potential of certain cyst subtypes and the poor survival rates of pancreatic cancer, accurate diagnosis and appropriate management of these cysts are critical.
    Recent findings: Advances in endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided diagnostics have increased the accuracy of differentiating PCLs. These include cyst fluid molecular analysis, EUS-guided needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy, and EUS-guided through the needle microforceps biopsy. This review encapsulates recent advances in the endoscopic management of PCLs with a specific focus on EUS-guided diagnosis.
    Summary: It is important to accurately diagnose pancreatic cystic lesions with malignant potential where the definitive management is surgical resection. Misdiagnosis can result in inadvertent surgery of an otherwise benign lesion or malignant progression of a precancerous cyst. Moreover, pancreatic surgery is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Recent advances in EUS-guided tissue acquisition, imaging, and molecular biomarkers have resulted in improved diagnostic accuracy of pancreatic cystic lesions. Future studies need to define efficient and accurate diagnostic algorithms for improved management of pancreatic cysts.

    Abstract Filiform warts are commonly treated with surgical removal or cryotherapy, yet such treatment modalities may result in complications for darker skin types. We report a man successfully treated for more than 50 filiform facial warts using a combination of 5-fluorouracil 5% and salicylic acid 20%.
