Self-cutting injuries have a low mortality rate, but this type of injuries has special clinical significance because they have the potential of leading to devastating disability and repeated suicide attempts. The purpose of this study is to analyze the nature and outcomes of wrist-cutting injuries. A retrospective study was designed in order to investigate 41 suicide attempts by wrist cutting attended to Uludag University Faculty of Medicine Emergency Department between June 2008 and December 2014. The patients were analyzed for age, gender, alcohol intake, psychological state, prior suicide attempts, and clinical features such as injury side, injury pattern, and used tool. It was seen that the severity of wrist-cutting injury variates between gender and age. Alcohol or drug consumption and having a diagnosed psychiatric disorder create a higher risk for extensive wrist lacerations. It was seen that skin only lacerations were most likely to repeat the act and therefore are most in need of psychiatric intervention.

Background Melanocytic naevus (MN) is a normal, benign proliferation of melanocytes, which may be acquired or congenital, and it is the most common pigmented lesion posing an aesthetic problem for many patients and can be found anywhere on the skin. There are several other types of pigmented skin lesions apart from MN such as seborrhoeic keratosis (SK) which mimics both MN and basal cell carcinoma (BCC).Methods A retrospective study was designed in order to investigate the characteristics of 152 non-MN pigmented skin lesion excisions performed between June 2009 and October 2014. All patients desired their lesions to be removed for only cosmetic reasons. None of our patients described their lesions as 'suspicious'. All patients were evaluated for age and gender in addition to the clinical characteristics of the lesion such as location, size and morphology. Twenty-two different types of pigmented lesion were identified.Results A total of 152 patients underwent surgery. Of the 152 patients, 83 were female (54.6 %) and 69 were male (45.4 %). The average age of our patient group was 51.4 (12-87) years. The average size of the lesions was 1.27 cm(2) (0.01-6 cm 2).Conclusions Seborrhoeic keratosis was the most common lesion type (49.6 %), followed by dermatofibroma, haemangioma, fibroepithelial polyp and BCC. These five lesions in total constituted 79.4 % of all lesions. It was also observed that approximately 19 % of all excised lesions were malignant, pre-malignant or a feature of a systemic disease. The main complaint for all of our patients was cosmetic disturbance. None of the lesions were symptomatic, and none of the patients considered their lesions as 'suspicious'.

Background The risk of malignant transformation is the most important reason for melanocytic naevi excision whereas the most common reason for excision is cosmetic disturbance.Methods Our study was conducted in a retrospective design from June 2009 to October 2013 involving 790 naevi excisions from 509 patients (332 male, 177 female) due to cosmetic disturbance. Each patient was evaluated for age and gender in addition to the clinical characteristics of the lesions such as location, size, depth and morphology. Results The average age of our patient group was 36.4 (18-68). Of the 509 patients, 332 were female (65.2 %) and 177 were male (34.7%). Intradermal naevus was the most common type. Of all patients, 93.3% had intradermal, dysplastic or compound naevi. Of all lesions, 93.9 % were intradermal, dysplastic or compound naevi. Buccal region was the most common excision site in the face with 112 excisions. Female gender was dominant in all naevi types except for dysplastic naevi and junctional naevi. Male gender was dominant in these groups.Conclusions Gender and age in addition to the clinical characteristics of the lesion such as location, size, depth and morphology were analysed for each patient. To our knowledge, our study has the largest naevi excision number performed for only cosmetic reasons. Even though there was no malignant melanoma identified, high rate of dysplastic naevi was an important data due to its malignancy risk.
