Keloid Scars

Scars are formed by the collagen produced by fibroblasts in the area of the injury. Initially scars may have a raised or bumpy appearance, but over time tend to diminish in size and flatten. Sometimes, however, fibroblasts do not cease to produce collagen at the proper time, and the resultant scar swells with the fibrous protein to unusual proportions. If this growth remains restricted to the original location of the wound then it is referred to as a hypertrophic scar, but if it extends past the boundaries of the injured area, then the overgrown scar is called a keloid.

fluctuant mass increasing in size after birth

babies may have significant blood loss, shock, DIC.

It have a potential to extend into the neck, periorbital regions, or forehead. (i.e. cross cranial suture lines.)

3. Cephalohematoma : It lies beneath the periosteum.

It can easily differentiate from subgeal hematoma as it is bound by the pericranium superiorly and therefore does not cross cranial suture lines.

It can lead to hyperbilirubinemia.

usually resolve within weeks

may be a fluctuant mass

homo-medicus:

Medulloblastoma

Medulloblastoma is a highly malignant primary brain tumor that originates in the cerebellum or posterior fossa. Tumors that originate in the cerebellum are referred to as infratentorial because they occur below the tentorium, a thick membrane that separates the cerebral hemispheres of the brain from the cerebellum. Another term for medulloblastoma is infratentorial primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET). Medulloblastoma is the most common PNET originating in the brain. The majority of this tumors are invasive and rapidly growing tumors that, unlike most brain tumors, spread through the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and frequently metastasize to different locations in the brain and spine.

This is the x-ray of the cochlear implant in place in my head from when I had the surgery last year. The CI is definitely an awesome piece of technology and I am so happy with the progress I’ve made in the year since receiving the implant.
