Microvascular replantation in not always feasible for distal finger amputations. Our work presents a case of 23-year-old woman who suffered an amputation of index finger at the level of nail base. She was disqualified from microvascular replantation, however, the cooperation with Replantation Service resulted in an uncommon method of treatment, which resulted in excellent functional and aesthetic outcome. Composite grafting for fingertip amputations is a unique procedure which enables preserving original tissue with its function. We consider composite grafting to be a valuable adjunct to the wide range of methods for treating distal finger amputiations.

Background: Amyloidosis refers to a group of depositional diseases that are classified into two main types: systemic and localized. Large nodules of localized cutaneous amyloidosis of the nasal ala and surrounding skin are rare and the treatment is often unsatisfactory. Objective: We report a case of rapidly enlarging, localized, nodular cutaneous amyloidosis of the nose and the surrounding skin with a brief review of the current literature regarding treatment of this rare disease. Conclusion: Nodular amyloidosis can be treated successfully with cold steel excision in combination with carbon dioxide laser. Close followup of these patients is warranted, as nodular amyloidosis may be the precursor to systemic amyloidosis.
