Skin graft

Urethral stricture surgey Urethralplasty with buccal skin graft April 2017. 4. Urethral burning, some inflamation last 6 months. My urologist and MO both tell me I’ve Still! got radiation products remnants and components in my body. Like in my Pelvis, urethral areas.

Sorry I've been so long getting back to you guys but I also ended up being sent to a skin cancer doctor for a biopsy before removal and a skin graft and I've been so very overwhelmed at all this happening in such a short time.

This helpful doctor also suggested he could do this without having a skin graft the plastic surgeon told me was necessary (which to be taken from my insole).

Will i need skin graft i been hearing i may need it. How long will this operation be?

The surgeon didn't think I needed any lymph nodes checked - thank goodness but suggested having the wider excision which would also require a skin graft from my instep and at least 2 weeks with my foot elevated.

I apparently have a skin graft on my hand. Where did they get the skin from?? I don't think it was from me because I can't find a scar that big anywhere? Does anyone out there know?? I've aged by about 15 years. This is 'normal'. Can't get my core strength back ( if I had it in the first place?!!).

Skin graft afterwards on same day usually. Local anaesthetic makes me feel wobbly anyway for a short time, but they don’t use adrenaline free due to the nature of the surgery. My cardiologist has suggested this med the night before and on the morning if the dermatologist is agreeable.

I am waiting for 9 sessions of radiotherapy and when that is over and my skin has settled I then have to make a decision on future treatment: 1) reconstructiion involving a forehead flap skin graft ; 2) a prosthesis; 3) do nothing and live with the hole on the nose (which I cover with a plaster when

I am now in my mid-sixties and was diagnosed with CLL four years; I remain on watch and wait. At around the same time I started getting multiple lesions on my face; some were cancerous and required skin grafts, some were not. At my last appointment with the plastic surgeon I asked why I keep getting

I recently had to have surgery on my face for Basal Cell Carcinomas (a not too drastic skin problem from sun damage). As I have multiple health issues the surgeon decided on a general anaesthetic to do skin grafts. I checked in and when the anaesthetist saw me I asked if he had seen the letter from

I am wondering if anyone has had this surgery,I need to have it carried out with an iliac crest bone graft and tendon transfer. I have exhausted all other avenues. If anyone has experience with this I would be interested to hear.

Hi this follows problems with areas of skin on my face which I just wonder is a side effect of my RA medications as it’s due to sun damaged skin and I’ve always worn sun screen!! Am aware that some medications increase your sensitivity to the uv rays of the sun anybody else have this skin problem ?

I was referred for a skin biopsy on 19/7/24 and told it didn’t look worrying so the results might take some time. Ok, I thought, they know best. I called the consultant’s secretary last Thursday as the lesion is now much worse than when they biopsied it. She wasn’t there naturally but returned my call

I got a double whammy diagnosis 10 days ago. My CLL was diagnosed when getting a mole removed which turns out to be a malignant melanoma. Am going in for some more surgery on my mole shortly and they will run tests on my lymph nodes at the same time. It appears that we are at greater risk of melanoma
