  • 755 nm alexandrite laser for the reduction of tumor burden in basal cell Nevus syndrome 
    Tannous, Zeina; Ibrahimi, Omar A.; Sakamoto, Fernanda H.; Anderson, Rox R. (2017-11-08)
    Background and Objective Basal Cell Nevus syndrome (BCNS) is characterized by numerous basal cell carcinomas (BCCs). Multiple treatments with the pulsed dye laser (PDL) have been shown, in small studies, to be effective ...
  • Ablative micro-fractional resurfacing

    Tannous, Zeina; Shofner, Joshua D.; Jalian, Ray H.; Avram, Mathew M.; Stankiewicz, Kelly J. (2017-11-10)
    Background and Objective Basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) have supporting vasculature that serves as a target for vascular selective lasers. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of repeated treatment with ...
  • Combined pulsed dye laser and Nd 
    Tannous, Zeina; Shofner, Joshua; Stankiewicz, Kelly; Avram, Mathew; Jalian, Ray H. (2017-11-10)
  • Cutaneous vascular disorders associated with internal malignancy 
    Tannous, Zeina; Doukas, Apostolos G.; Sakamoto, Fernanda H.; Farinelli, William A.; Smith, Nicholas A.; Zurakowski, David; Anderson, Rox R. (2017-11-10)
    This article provides a detailed review of the vascular manifestations affecting the skin in relationship to internal malignancies. Vascular abnormalities heralding internal malignancies can be divided into three main ...
  • Delineating melanoma using multimodal polarized light imaging 
    Tannous, Zeina; Al-Arashi, Munir; Shah, Sonali; Yaroslavsky, Anan N. (2017-11-10)
    Background and Significance Melanoma accounts for 3% of all skin cancers but causes 83% of skin cancer deaths. The first step in treatment of melanoma is the removal of the lesions, usually by surgical excision. Currently ...
  • Dermal melanocytic proliferation with features of a plaque-type blue nevus and neurocristic hamartoma 
    Tannous, Zeina; Bevona, Caroline; Tsao, Hensin (2017-11-08)
    Blue nevi (BN) and neurocristic hamartomas (NCH) are pigmented lesions that originate from the aberrant development of cells derived from the neural crest. BN are composed of dermal melanocytes, whereas NCH have a broader ...
  • Effects of non-invasive, 1,210 nm laser exposure on adipose tissue 
    Tannous, Zeina; Wanner, Molly; Gagnon, Denise; Zurakowski, David; Watanabe, Kanna; Anderson, Rox; Manstein, Dieter (2017-11-08)
    Background and Objectives Laser radiation (1,210 nm) has been previously shown to be capable of selective photothermolysis of adipose tissue in vitro when applied non-invasively. The objective of this pilot study was ...
  • Fractional resurfacing 
    Tannous, Zeina (2017-11-08)
    Fractional resurfacing produces a distinctive thermal damage pattern by creating discrete columns of thermal damage referred to as microthermal treatment zones. It characteristically spares the tissue surrounding each ...
  • A histological evaluation of the dermal effects after fractional photothermolysis treatment 
    Tannous, Zeina; Laubach, Hans J.; Anderson, Rox R. (2017-11-08)
  • Immediate skin responses to laser and light treatments 
    Tannous, Zeina; Sakamoto, Fernanda H.; Wanner, Molly; Avram, Mathew M.; Chan, Henry H.; Alam, Murad; Anderson, Rox R. (2017-11-10)
    Clinical endpoints are immediate or early tissue reactions that occur during laser treatment. They can guide the laser surgeon in delivering safe and effective laser treatment. Some endpoints act as warning signs of injury ...
  • In vivo real-time confocal reflectance microscopy 
    Tannous, Zeina; Torres, Abel; Gonzalez, Salvador (2017-11-08)
    Background Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is based on microscopically controlled excision of cutaneous neoplasms and offers the highest cure rates with maximum tissue preservation. In vivo confocal microscopy (CM) allows ...
  • Intracutaneous ALA photodynamic therapy 
    Tannous, Zeina; Farinelli, William S.; Doukas, Apostolos G.; Sakamoto, Fernanda H.; Anderson, Rox R.; Smith, Nicholas A. (2017-11-10)
    Background Photodynamic therapy (PDT) using topical aminolevulinic acid (ALA) depends on local drug uptake, metabolism to porphyrins, and depth of light penetration using different wavelengths. Topical ALA-PDT has limited ...
  • Intradermal aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) 
    Tannous, Zeina; Anderson, Rox.R.; Farinelli, William; Doukas, Apostolos G.; Sakamoto, Fernanda H. (2017-11-10)
  • Porphyrin distribution after topical aminolevulinic acid in a novel porcine model of sebaceous skin 
    Tannous, Zeina; Sakamoto, Fernanda H.; Doukas, Apostolos G.; Farinelli, William A.; Smith, Nicholas A. (2017-11-08)
    Background and Objective Aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT) depends on drug metabolism into porphyrins. Clinically, ALA-PDT has been used with a wide range of protocols for treating both epidermal and ...
  • Progression to invasive melanoma frommalignant melanoma in situ, lentigo maligna type 
    Tannous, Zeina; Lerner, Lisa H.; Duncan, Lyn M.; Mihim, Martin C.; Flotte, Thomas (2017-11-08)
    We have previously hypothesized that lesions that have been termed lentigo maligna can be divided into 2 categories: 1 represents a pigmented lesion that is a precursor to melanoma, and the other melanoma in situ. We and ...
  • A prospective, randomized controlled trial on the efficacy of fractional photothermolysis on scar remodeling 
    Tannous, Zeina; Kin, Jennifer Y.; Warger II, William C.; Iziksob, Leonid; Anderson, R.Rox (2017-11-08)
    Background Non-ablative fractional resurfacing (NAFR) has been reported in case studies as an effective treatment for surgical and burn scars [Behroozan et al., J Cosmet Laser Ther 2006; 8(1):35–38; Haedersdal et al., ...
  • Pulsed dye laser as a novel non-surgical treatment for basal cell carcinomas 
    Tannous, Zeina; Jarell, Abel; Avram, Mathew; Konnikov, Nellie (2017-11-08)
    Background and Objective We showed previously that pulsed dye laser (PDL) is a potentially effective therapy for BCCs <15 mm on trunk and extremities. To follow-up, we conducted a study based on optimized parameters and ...
  • Real-time, in vivo confocal reflectance microscopy of basal cell carcinoma 
    Tannous, Zeina; Gonzalez, Salvador (2017-11-08)
    Background: Real-time, near-infrared confocal laser scanning microscopy may provide a way to diagnose basal cell carcinoma in vivo and might potentially eliminate the need for invasive diagnostic biopsies in the future. ...
