Background: Subungual exostosis is a relatively uncommon, slow-growing benign bone tumor that most often affects the toes of young people and has significant impact on quality life. The treatment which essentially based surgical excision with meticulous closure wound while avoiding causes nail dystrophy.

sulfated polysaccharides have shown promising effects on wound healing processes along with many other biological activities. the sulfated polysaccharides extracted from two algae species habitats in persian gulf were studied in vivo for their effects on collagen formation and epidermal regeneration. the polysaccharides were purified from aqueous extracts of p. tetrastromatica and p. boergeseni...

Lymphangiomas are benign lesions but are associated with high morbidity when they become very large, occur in critical locations, or when surgically removed, develop secondary wound infections. Almost all lesions require surgical treatment. Complete excision is curative; however, relapses must be anticipated with incomplete excision. We report the case of a patient with a long history of massiv...

The influence of flower extract of Jasminum grandiflorum was studied for its wound healing activity at a dose of 250 mg/kg body weight, using excision and dead space wound models in rats. The animals were divided into three groups in excision wound model, the controls (n=10) were treated with 0.25% CM cellulose, reference standard (n=10) were treated with sulfathiazole ointment and the experime...

Nitroglycerin (NTG) is an organic nitrate rapidly denitrated by enzymes to release free radical nitric oxide and shows improved wound healing and tissue protection from oxidative damage. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether topical application of NTG in the form of gel/ointment along with a natural wound healing agent, aloe vera, would bring about wound healing by using diabetes-in...

Spider web is being used in India and other countries to promote wound healing. Its ointment at 2.5 and 5% w/w concentrations was tested for wound healing activity in excision and incision wound models in rats. A significant reduction in the area of excision wound was observed for both the treatments when compared to normal healing and control ointment treatments. The period of epithelization f...

The wound healing effect of methanolic extract of the root of aegle marmelos was evaluated in the form of an ointment with two different concentrations (5% and 10% w/w in simple ointment base) in excision wound model and incision wound model in rats. In both the concentrations, the extract ointment produced a significant response in both the wound types tested, as evidenced by its wound contrac...

Objective— Use of equine autologous keratinocyte on collagen membrane grafts (KCMG) for treatment of wounds in the distal aspect of the horse limb. Design— Experimental study Animals— Four horses. Procedure—Keratinocytes have been separated by enzyme digestion from lib skin sample and proliferated in vitro. Full thickness excision wounds (6.25 cm2) were created on the mid-lateral of both met...

The leaves of Carapa guianensis have been used to treat ulcers, skin parasites, and skin problems. The ethanolic extract of C. guianensis leaf was evaluated for its antibacterial and wound healing activity using excision, incision and dead space wound models in rats. The animals were randomly divided into two groups (n = 6) in all the models. In the excision wound model test group animals were ...
