PREFACE
The medical curriculum has become increasingly vertically integrated, with stronger basic
concept and support by clinical examples and cases to help in the understanding of the relevance
of the underlying basic science. Basic science concepts may help in the understanding of the
pathophysiology and treatment of diseases. Skin and hearing systems and disorders block have
been written to take account of this trend and to integrate core aspects of basic science,
pathophysiology, and treatment into a single, easy to use revision aid.
The skin and hearing systems and disorders block will refresh the basic anatomy, histology,
physiology of skin and hearing systems, varies dermatology cases (papulo-erythrosquamosa,
Morbus Hansen, viral infection, insect bite and infestation, dermatophytosis, drug eruption,
pigmentary, and sebaceous gland disorders, bacterial infection, dermatitis), rational topical
treatment in dermatology, dermatopharmacology, an example of the otic drug, and varies cases
in hearing systems including hearing loss.
This study guide is developed by the academic staffs from various departments: Anatomy,
Physiology, Histology, Pharmacology, Pharmacy, Anatomy Pathology, Dermato-venereology, Ear
Nose and Throat Department.
The learning process will be carried out for 3 weeks (16 working days) and 1 week for Basic
Clinical Skills starts from December 12th, 2017 as shown in the timetable. The final examination
will be conducted on January 17th, 2018 in the form of Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ).
Assessment methods are a final exam (MCQ), small group discussion, and a student project. The
learning situations include lectures, individual learning, small group discussion, student project,
plenary session, practice, and clinical skills.
Most of the learning material should be learned independently and discuss in Small Group
Discussion by the students with the help of a facilitator. Lectures are given to emphasize the most
important thing of the material. In a small group discussion, the students gave learning task to
lead their discussion.
This study guide needs more revision in the future so that the planners kindly invite readers
to give any comments and critics for its completion. Thank you.

BCS 1: Efflorescence
Praharsini & Dwi Puspawati
Most skin diseases produce or present with lesions that have more or less distinct characteristics.
They may be uniform or vary in size, shape, and color, and perhaps occur in different stages of
evolution or involution. In some cases, the appearance of skin lesion may be so distinctive so
then the diagnosis is easy to be made. In other cases, subjective symptoms and clinical sign in
themselves are inadequate, and a complete history and laboratory examinations, including
biopsy, are essential to conclude a diagnosis.
The same disease may show variations under different conditions and in different individuals. The
appearance of the lesions may have been modified by previous treatment or obscured by external
influences, such as scratching or secondary infection. Subjective symptoms may be the only
evidence of a disease, as in pruritus, and the skin appearance may be generally unremarkable.
Although history is important, the diagnosis in dermatology is most frequently made based on the
objective physical characteristic and location or distribution of one or more lesions that can be
seen or felt. Therefore, careful physical examination of the skin is crucial in making a dermatology
diagnosis.
The original lesions are known as the primary lesions, and identification of such lesions is the
most important aspect of dermatologic physical examination. They may continue until fully
developed or be modified by regression, trauma, or another external factor, producing secondary
lesions. Dermatology has a vocabulary that is quite distinct from other medical specialties and it
is necessary to describe skin disorder.
Primary Lesions
These are the following form of primary lesions such as macules, papules, plaques, nodules,
tumors, wheals, vesicles, bullae, pustules and telangiectasia.
Macule. A small, circular, flat spot less than 2 cm in diameter. The color of a macule is not the
same as that of nearby skin. Macules come in a variety of shapes and are usually brown, white,
or red. Examples of macules include freckles and flat moles. A macule more than 2 cm in diameter
is called a patch.

Figure 1. Macula depigmentation in vitiligo patient
Papule. A solid raised lesion less than 0,5 cm across. A grouped papules more than 2 cm across
is called a plaque. Papules and plaques can be rough in texture and red, pink, or brown in color.
Papules are associated with such conditions as warts, syphilis, psoriasis, seborrheic and actinic
keratoses, lichen planus, and skin cancer.

Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
14
Nodule. A solid lesion that has distinct edges and that is usually more deeply rooted than a
papule. Doctors often describe a nodule as "palpable," because when we palpate, it can be felt
as a hard mass distinct from the tissue surrounding it. A nodule more than 2 cm in diameter is
called a tumor. Nodules are associated with, among other conditions, keratinous cysts, lipomas,
fibromas, and some types of lymphomas.
Figure 3. Nodule
Wheal (Urtica). A skin elevation caused by swelling that can be itchy and usually disappears
soon after erupting. Wheals are generally associated with an allergic reaction, such as to a drug
or an insect bite.

Vesicle. A raised lesion less than 1 cm across and filled with a clear fluid. Vesicles which diameter
more than 1 cm across are called bullae or blisters. These lesions may be the result of sunburns,
insect bites, chemical irritation, or certain viral infections, such as herpes.
Figure 5. Vesicles, bullae, and erosions
Pustule. A raised lesion filled with pus. A pustule usually results from an infection, such as acne,
impetigo, or boils.
Figure 6. Multiple pustules on erythematous macule

16
Telangiectasia. Small, dilated blood vessels that appear close to the surface of the skin.
Telangiectasia is often a symptom of such diseases as rosacea or scleroderma.
Secondary Lesions
The major types of secondary skin lesions are an ulcer, fissure, scale, crust, erosion, excoriation,
scar, lichenification, and atrophy.
Ulcer. Lesion with a loss of the upper portion of the skin (epidermis) and part of the lower portion
(dermis). Ulcers can result from acute conditions such as bacterial infection or trauma, or from
chronic conditions, such as scleroderma or disorders involving peripheral veins and arteries. An
ulcer that appears as a deep crack that extends to the dermis is called a fissure.
Figure 7. Ulcer
Scale. Lesion with a dry, composed of dead skin cells that often flakes off the surface of the skin.
The body ordinarily is constantly shedding imperceptible tiny, thin fragments of stratum corneum.
When the formation of epidermal cells is rapid or the process of normal keratinization is interfered
or as a result of pathologic exfoliation, can produce scale. Diseases that promote scale include
fungal infections, psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis.
Figure 8. Thick scale in Psoriasis Vulgaris

Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
17
Crust. A dried collection of blood, serum, or pus. Also called a scab, a crust is often part of the
normal healing process of many infectious lesions.
Figure 9. Multiple brown crusts in herpes zoster patient
Erosion. Lose of all or portions of the epidermis alone, as in impetigo or herpes zoster after
vesicles rupture produces an erosion. It may or may not become crusted, but it heals without a
scar formation.
Figure 10. Erosion
Excoriation. An excoration is a punctate or linear abrasion produced by mechanical factors
including scratching or picking at a primary lesion. This lesion usually involving the epidermis only
and not reaching the papillary layer of the dermis.

Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
18
Scar. Discolored, fibrous tissue that permanently replaces normal skin after the destruction of the
dermis. A very thick and raised scar is called a keloid.
Lichenification. Rough, thick epidermis with exaggerated skin lines. This is often a characteristic
of scratch dermatitis and atopic dermatitis.
Figure 11. Grossly lichenified
Atrophy. An area of skin that has become very thin and wrinkled. Normally seen in older
individuals and people who are using very potent topical corticosteroid medication.
Diagnostic Details of Lesions
1. Characteristic or Morphology of The Lesions
Individual lesion described with the help of a magnifying glass. To find out the early primary lesion
and to inspect it closely. Note the shape (geometric shape, oval), color (salmon-pink,
erythematous, skin color, yellow), size, margin (sharpness of edge, well-defined, ill-defined), the
surface characteristics (dome-shaped, umbilicated, spike-like), temperature and smell.
2. Configuration of The Lesions
The certain term is used to describe the configuration that an eruption assumes either primarily
or by enlargement or coalescence. Lesion in a line are called linear, and they may be confluent
or discrete. Lesions may form a complete circle (annular) or a portion of a circle (arcuate or gyrate)
or may be composed of several intersecting portions of circles (polycyclic). If the eruption that not
linear nor parts of a circle, it may be serpiginous.

Figure 12. Grouped lesion : cluster Figure 13. Serpiginous lesion
Distribution of The Lesions
Distribution of the lesions can be: symmetrical, asymmetrical, exposed area, sun-exposed area,
scalp region, hand, extensor aspect, flexor aspect.
Figure 14. Distribution lesion following
Blasckho lines
Figure 15. Distribution lesion in extensor aspect
Skin Examination
The examination should be conducted in a well-lit room. Natural sunlight is the ideal illumination.
A magnifying has a value in examining small lesions. It may be necessary to palpate the lesion
for firmness and fluctuation. The entire eruption must be seen to evaluate configuration and
distribution. This examination can optimally be done by having the patient completely undress.
It is very important to have a thorough examination of the whole body especially for a new
consultation and for the elderly. Sometimes, examination of the back and buttock of the elderly
may reveal unexpected lesions, even the patient himself or herself may not notice them e.g.
persistent chronic annular erythematous rash in the buttock found in a case of tuberculoid leprosy.

Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
20
Examination of Hair, Nail, and Mucosa
Involvement of hair-bearing areas by certain skin disorders caused characteristic lesions. For
example, discoid lupus can cause scarring alopecia with characteristic dys-pigmentation.
Sometimes on the skin lesions may be much less characteristic. Diffuse hair loss may be seen in
certain conditions such as acrodermatitis-enteropathica and maybe a clue to the diagnosis. In
addition, loss of hair within a skin lesion may be suggestive of the correct diagnosis, e.g. the
alopecia seen in the tumid plaques of follicular mucinosis.
Some skin disorders cause characteristic changes of the nail, even when the periungual tissue is
not involved. The pitting nail can be seen in psoriasis and alopecia areata, and this finding may
be useful in confirming these diagnoses when other findings are not characteristic. In addition,
the nails and adjacent structures may be the important site of pathology, as in candidal
paronychia.
Figure 16. Nail involvement in psoriasis: pitting (left) and subungual hyperkeratosis with
onycholysis (right)
The complete skin examinations include an examination of the mucosa. Oral lesions are
characteristically found in viral syndrome, lichen planus, HIV associated Kaposi sarcoma and
autoimmune bullous diseases.

BCS 2: KOH Preparation as Investigation of Superficial Mycosis
Dwi Karmila
The KOH test also known as a potassium hydroxide preparation or KOH preparation is a quick,
inexpensive fungal test to differentiate superficial mycosis symptoms from other skin disorders
like psoriasis and eczema. Potassium hydroxide (KOH) preparation is used for the rapid detection
of fungal elements in a clinical specimen, as it clears the specimen making fungal elements more
visible during the direct microscopic examination.
KOH is a strong alkali. When specimen such as skin, hair, nails or sputum is mixed with 20% w/v
KOH, it softens, digests and clears the tissues (e.g., keratin present in skins) surrounding the
fungi so that the hyphae and conidia (spores) of fungi can be seen under a microscope.
The procedure of KOH Preparation:
1. Place a drop of KOH solution on a slide.
2. Transfer the specimen (small pieces) to the drop of KOH, and cover with glass. Place the
slide in a petri dish, or another container with a lid, together with a damp piece of filter paper
or cotton wool to prevent the preparation from drying out.
3. As soon as the specimen has cleared, examine it microscopically using the 10X and 40X
objectives with the condenser iris diaphragm closed sufficiently to give a good contrast.

BCS 3: Diagnosis of Scabies by Skin Scraping Examination
Suryawati
The standard technique for the diagnosis of scabies consists of the identification of the mite, eggs,
or feces by microscopic examination of scales obtained by a skin scraping. Repeated tests in
different areas are often needed for a conclusive diagnosis because the sensitivity is low. Other
diagnostic procedures include the burrow ink test, the adhesive tape test, and the polymerase
chain reaction (PCR)-based method for detecting S. scabiei DNA in skin scrapings.
Equipment
1. Gloves
2. Magnifying glass
3. Light source
4. Alcohol Swabs
5. #15 scalpel blades
6. Glass slide and coverslips
7. Mineral oil or immersion oil
8. Laboratorium requisition forms
9. Sharps container
10. Microscope
Procedure
1. The highest yield in identifying a mite is in typical burrows on the finger webs, flexor aspect
of the wrist and penis.
2. Use a magnifying glass to identify recent burrows or papules. A bright light and magnifying
glass will assist in visualizing the mite (tiny dark speck ) at the end of the burrow
3. Explain the procedure to the patient and perform hand hygiene
4. Using an alcohol swab scrub the area to be scraped for 30 seconds and allow to air dry
5. Apply a single drop of mineral oil over un-excoriated burrow
6. Scrape in excoriated, noninflamed areas (Burrows) with a #15 scalpel blade. The mineral
oil will emulsify the scrapings
7. Using the blade put the emulsified scrapings on a slide; cover the slide with a coverslip
8. Send covered slide with a completed requisition to the laboratory for diagnostic purposes

Microscopic finding
Three findings are diagnostic of scabies: S. scabiei mites, their eggs and their fecal pellets or
scybala (figure below).

BCS 4: Tzanck Smear as a Diagnostic Tool in Dermatology
Suryawati
Tzanck smear is a very simple, rapid, cheap and reliable cytodiagnostic tool in dermatology.
Cytology is a diagnostic tool used to investigate the characteristics of individual cells. In this
method, materials obtained in a variety of ways are transferred to a glass slide, stained with
various dyes, and then examined under the light microscope. As a method for the diagnosis of
cutaneous disorders, cytology was first used by Arnault Tzanck in 1947.Cytology has been widely
used by dermatologists for diagnosing various cutaneous dermatoses, such as for viral infections
(herpetic infections), immunobullous disease (pemphigus), bacterial infection (Staphylococcal
Scalded Skin Syndrome) or a skin tumor.
Preparation of Tzanck smear
1. Samples should be taken from a fresh vesicle and cleaned with 70% alcohol.
2. The vesicle should be unroofed or the crust removed, and the base scraped with the blunt
edge of a scalpel blade (no 15) or the edge of a spatula.
3. The material is transferred to a glass slide by touching the spatula to the glass slide
repeatedly but gently, air dried.
4. The material obtained stained with Giemsa stain for 20–25 minutes.
5. Then it is washed with water and examined under the microscope.
Cytologic findings
1. The cytological findings are pathognomonic of herpetic infection because of the presence
of tremendously enlarged, multinucleated giant cells (ballooning cells). The cytoplasm is
hyper-basophilic; the nuclei are giant, often have a smoky appearance due to the absence
of the chromatin network, and may contain inclusion bodies due to the presence of
reproducing viral units (figure 18).

BCS 5: Wound Care
Luh Mas Rusyati & Ratih Karna
Skin as barrier protection of the body against external world plays a significant role in the
prevention of infection. Skin that got wounded and not intact will allow the infection to easily
penetrate to the body. Skin and soft tissue infection is still a major problem and is the number four
of most causes of outpatient treatment in Indonesia. This type of infection can be caused by gram-
positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Group Aβ-streptococci, or by gram-negative
bacteria such as Pseudomonas and Serratia. After the discovery of antibiotics, most of the
infectious cases could be treated well. But, these days management of infection would be more
challenging and demand more attention with the increase of immunocompromised diseases
including diabetes mellitus. Ulcer itself describes as discontinuity of epidermis and dermis either
caused by a natural history of an underlying disease or by manipulation and trauma. Skin
infections with such situations describe above could prolong the length of stay and the use of
antibiotics.
It needs to be bear in mind that the cause of the wound would not necessarily determine the
management of the wound. It is caused by an event can be different and evolve in the problem
and manifestation. Every medical personnel should be able to assess and manage a wound or
ulcer properly especially in term of wound care, wound toilet, and dressing options. The problem
of wounds including infections, necrotic tissue, and exudates. Infection could be managed by
properly choosing the correct antibiotic accompanied by wound toilet and irrigation. Necrotic
tissue should be managed by debridement with various technical options such as surgery,
autolytic, enzymatic, mechanic and biologic. Exudates now more easily manageable by various
modern dressing that developed with a highly absorbent material such as calcium alginate,
Hydrofiber, or foam.
Before starting doing wound treatment, we have to evaluate the condition of the wound to see if
there are infections or exudates occurred and necrotic tissue was found in the wound. Modern
dressing does not depend on antibiotic or antiseptic because irrigation can be done using
materials that contain silver (Ag) which act against bacteria. While treating the wound, coping
with exudation is a very important step in order to keep the wound moist and it will increase the
re-epithelialization so the healing process will be 50% faster than dry wound. Physiologic Natrium
Chloride (NaCl 0,9%) often used in Dermatology Department to irrigate the wound, especially with
prior dermatitis lesion because NaCl 0,9% is nonirritating. Various options of modern dressing
were available such as calcium alginate, hydrofiberdan foam.

In cases of necrotic tissue presence, debridement of the wound is the only choice. Some of the
purpose of debridement are removing necrotic tissue, reducing bacterial contamination, and
promote healing process. Not all debridement procedure was done by surgical measure, even
though it is the fastest and give more complete result. Beside by surgical technique, there is less
invasive nonsurgical debridement that can be an option, such as debridement enzymatic,
debridement autolytic, and debridement biologic. Enzymatic debridement achieved by topical
collagenase ointment that can remove necrotic tissue. Autolytic debridement removes the
remains of necrotic tissue by maintaining the wound in a moist condition. The moist wound will
activate a proteolytic enzyme which also acts to liquefy necrotic tissue. This technique is pain-
free and cheaper. Mechanic debridement was done by wet to dry dressing with sterile gauze by
which the gauze dry, the necrotic tissue will also be removed. The disadvantage of this technique
is discomfort and sometimes disturbing the newly formed epithelial cells. Whereas biologic
debridement using a biological agent such as larva Phaneniceasericata (green blow fly) to remove
the necrotic skins.
Conventional Wound Dressings
1. Sodium Chloride 0,9%. Physiological solutions, safe for dressings especially for the wound
with dermatitis risk.
2. Permanganate Kalikus (1:5.000 – 1:10.000). Antiseptic, pink-purple staining, difficult to
prepare.

Modern Dressings
1. Film transparent self-adhesive sheet. It from polyurethane, gas and water vapor
permeable, impermeable to fluid and bacteria, thin and elastic, easily conforming to
wounds with complex shape and angles, difficult to use as they fold on themselves easily.
Figure 21. Film transparent self-adhesive sheet
2. Foam. Composed of polyurethane or a silicone center, with a semi-occlusive outer layer,
convenient over bony prominences or within exudative cavities. Should be changed as
often becomes soaked with exudate, which may range from daily to once or twice weekly.

3. Hydrocolloids. Composed of cross-linked polymer matrices, integrated adhesives, and
starches, such as cellulose, gelatin, pectin, and guar. Available as sheets, pastes, and
powders. Upon contact with wound exudates, hydrocolloids absorb water and form gels.
Figure 23. Hydrocolloids
4. Alginate. Best choice for highly exudative wounds, composed of seaweed or kelp-based
polysaccharides. The gel is highly absorbent. Calcium ions within the dressing exchange
with the sodium ions in wound exudate to form an alginate gel.

BCS 6: Basal Cell Carcinoma, Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Nevus Pigmentosus,
Cutaneous Melanoma, Abcess Incision and Drainage, Enucleation, Elliptical or
Fusiform Excision, and Nail Avulsion
Dharma Putra & Made Wardhana
6.1 Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC)
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cancer in humans. Basal Cell Carcinoma more
common in the ederly individual. Basal Cell Carcinoma characters develop on sun-exposed skin
in the lighter skinned individual. Basal Cell Carcinoma is rare in the dark skin because of the
inherent photoprotection of melanin and melanosomal dispresion. Risk factors for BCC are
ultraviolet light (UVL) exposure, light hair and eye color, northen european ancestry, and inability
to tan. Pathogenesis of BCC involves exposure to UVL, particulary the ultraviolet B spectrum
(290-320 nm) that induced mutations in p53 tumor suppesor genes.
Clinical Manifestations of BCC may vary for different clinical subtypes, which included nodular,
superficial, morphea-form, pigmented, and fibroepitheloma of Pinkus (FEP).
1. Nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma
The most common clinical subtype of BCC. It occurs most commonly on the sun exposed
area of the head and neck. Appeared as a translucent papule or nodule depending on
duration. There are usually telangiectasis and often rolled border. Large lessions with central
necrosis are reffered by the term rodent ulcer. The differential diagnosis of nodular BCC
included traumatized dermal nevus and amelanotic melanoma.
Figure 25. Nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma Figure 26. Rodent ulcer
2. Pigmented Basal Cell Carcinoma
Appeared as hyperpigmented, translucent papule, which may also be eroded. The
differential diagnosis includes nodular melanoma.

3. Superficial Basal Cell Carcinoma
Appeared as an erythematous patch (often well dermacated) that resembles eczema.
Figure 28. Superficial Basal Cell Carcinoma
4. Morpheaform (Sclerosing) Basal Cell Carcinoma
Aggresive growth variant of BCC, have an ivory-white appearance and may resemble a scar
or small lesion of morphea.

Figure 29. Morpheaform Basal Cell Carcinoma
5. Fibroepitheloma of Pinkus (FEP)
Fibroepitheloma of Pinkus clasically presents as a pink papule usually on the lower back. It
may be difficult to distinguish form an acrocordon and skin tag.
Figure 30. Fibroepitheloma of Pinkus
The biologic behavior of BCC can have a local invasion. BCC is a slow-growing tumor that
invades locally rather than metastasizes. If untreated, the tumor will progress to invade
subcutaneous tissue, muscle, and bone. Perineural invasion and metastasis are rare in BCC.
BCC treatments include standard surgical exicions, Mohs Micrographic Surgery (MMS),
destruction with various modalitied (curretage and desiccation, cryosurgery), topical
chemoterapy (imiquimod 5% cream, 5-fluorouracil, hedgehog inhibitor), photodynamic
therapy (PDT), and radiation therapy.
6.2 Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC)
Cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are malignant neoplasms derived from suprabasal
epidermal keratinocytes. Together with basal cell carcinoma, both represent the most common
malignancy in humans. In most cases, this malignancy evolves from precursor lesions of actinic
keratosis and Bowen disease (SCC in situ). Cutaneous SCC represents a broad spectrum of
disease ranging from easily managed, superficially invasive cancers to highly infiltrative,
metastasizing tumors that can result in death. The clinical presentation can be variable despite
the existence of easily identified typical lesions. There are a number of factors, including both,
acquired and genetic skin conditions that may predispose to SCC: precursor lesions, UV/ radiation
exposure, environmental carcinogens, immunosuppressions, scars, burns, chronic scarring, HPV
infection, genodermatoses (albinism, xeroderma pigmentosum, porokeratosis, epidermolysis
bullosa). The majority of SCCs arise on sun-exposed areas such as the head, neck, and dorsal
hands. SCC typically presents in solitary fashion, with the exception is in immunosuppressed
Study Guide Basic Clinical Skills Block Skin and Hearing Systems and Disorders
Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
33
patients, who may manifest eruptive SCCs. The most common morphology is a firm, flesh-colored
or erythematous, keratotic papule or plaque. Other presentations include as an ulcer, a smooth
nodule, or a thick cutaneous horn. SCC may also be verrucous or present as an abscess,
particularly if in a periungual location. The margins may be indistinct. With enlargement, there is
usually increased firmness, elevation, and fixation to underlying tissues. Enlarged lymph node
nearby that is firm and nontender may indicate tumor metastasis.
Fig 31. Ulcerative squamous cell carcinomas of the jaw.
The diagnosis of SCC is always made by skin biopsy. Histologic hallmark of invasive SCC is the
extension of atypical keratinocytes beyond the basement membrane into the dermis, with varying
proportions of normal-appearing and atypical squamous cells.The tumor may appear as single
cells, small groups or nests of cells, or a single mass. Squamous differentiation is seen as foci of
keratinization in concentric rings of squamous cells called horn pearls. In every case, it is
important to note clues that may indicate a precursor lesion or particular etiology. The grade,
depth of penetration, tumor thickness, and hair follicle involvement should also be reported. Low-
grade tumors are comprised of uniform cells, resembling mature keratinocytes, with intracellular
bridges and keratin production. By contrast, high-grade SCCs are characterized by atypical cells,
loss of intracellular bridges, minimal or absent keratin production, and a less distinct demarcation
between malignant cells and adjacent normal stroma.
Fig 32. Atypical keratinocytes and foci of keratinization
Treatment of SCC includes the surgical excision, Mohs micrographic surgery, topical therapy (in
Study Guide Basic Clinical Skills Block Skin and Hearing Systems and Disorders
Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
34
situ disease only), and radiation therapy. Conventional surgical excision is viewed by many as
the treatment of choice for small primary SCCs. Recommended margins are 4 mm for low-risk
lesions or SCCs with a depth of less than 2 mm; for lesions with a depth of more than 6 mm or a
diameter larger than 1 cm, Mohs micrographic surgery is recommended. Mohs micrographic
surgery is also recommended in specific circumstances when the highest cure rate and minimal
tissue destruction are desired. Radiation can be used to treat superficially invasive to moderate-
risk lesions and serves as an important adjuvant to excisional surgery in treating residual
microscopic disease and providing prophylaxis against metastatic disease. Radiation therapy is
not advised for verrucous carcinoma, in which there is an associated low rate of anaplastic
transformation.
After a diagnosis of SCC, all patients should be considered at high risk for developing additional
lesions of SCC as well as BCC. They should be seen at regular intervals, ranging from 3 months
to 12 months, depending on the degree of risk of prior lesions, the status of precursor lesions,
and individual patient compliance. Some preventative measures are likely to reduce the risk of
recurrences, such as sun protection, treatment of any precursor lesions and HPV infection,
decreased alcohol consumption and smoking cessation.
6.3 Nevus Pigmentosus
Nevus pigmentosus or nevomelanocytic neoplasias is used to describe the presence of a
melanocytic cell in epidermis, dermis, or in other tissue. Nevus pigmentosum can occur because
of mutasions N-RAS, GNAQ, and B-RAF genes that disrupt normal melanocytic development and
result in acumulation of the melanocytic cell. This alteration can induce by UVL. Based on clinical
features the nevus pigmentosum include:
1. Congenital Nevomelanocytic Nevi (CNN)
Present at birth or shorthly thereafter. Divided based on size criteria, small CNN (<1.5 cm),
medium (1,5-19,9 cm), and large or giant (>20 cm). The countour of CNN may smooth, pebbly,
rugose, verrucous, cerebriform, or grossly lobular surface. Have regular and sharply
demarcated. Some CNN has coarse, long, and darkly pigmented hair.

The majority appear to develop during the second and third decade of life. Clinically the
lession tend to be uniform in appearance and relatively small in size. The lession have had a
homogenous surface and coloration pattern (skin-colored, pink, or brown) round, oval, dome-
shaped, pendiculated or flat-topped with regular outlines and sharp borders. The surface of
nevi may reveal hair that is less or equal to surrounding skin.
Figure 36. Common Acquired Nevomelanocytic Nevus 3. Nevus Spilus
The lession appeared as a hyperpigmented patch background (1 cm to greater than 10 cm)
with scattered darker flat or raised element macular or papular pigmented. The lession
becomes during infancy or early childhood. Lession have been noted primary on the torso and
extremities.

The pigmented spindle cell nevus presents as a jet black lession often with “starburst”
appearance. The lession usually have uniform darkly pigmented with a sharp border.
Appeared during the third decade of life. Lession have been noted primarily in the lower
extremities and back.

6. Splitz Nevus
Lession appears as a dome-shaped papule, the color pink or red, hairless, firm, and dome-
shaped. Some spliz nevus may resemble keloid.
Figure 40. Splitz Nevus
The spectrum of nevomelanocytic neoplasmas often subcategorized based on the location of the
melanocytic cell, into junctional, dermal, and compound on histopathology examination.
1. Junctional nevus pigmentosus
A melanocytic cell in the epidermis. The nevus lession usually flatter and darker.
2. Dermal nevus pigmentosus
A melanocytic cell in the dermis. The nevus lession usually elevated and less pigmented.
3. Compound nevus pigmentosus
A melanocytic cell in both areas epidermis and dermis.

Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
37
Management approach of nevus pigmentosum is the compelete removal of nevus with exisicion
with safety margin 3-5 mm. Exicision should be included subcutaneous fat to ensure complete
removal of the deep dermal melanocytic cell. After exision, the nevus tissue continues with
histopathology examnination. If the size of nevus pigmentosum large and difficult to do exision,
the other modalities of treatment are curretage, dermabration, chemical peel, cryotherapy,
electrosurgery, ablative laser, and also pigmented laser.
6.4 Cutaneous Melanoma
Cutaneous melanoma is the one of the skin cancer in humans. Risk factor cutaneous melanoma
included the history of sunburn or heavy sun exposure, blue or green eyes, blonde or red hair,
fair complexion, have > 100 typical nevi, any typical nevi, prior personal or family history of
melanoma, or p16 mutation. Mean age at diagnosis is 53 years. Most common location is the
back of men and lower extremities followed by trunk for women but can occur anywhere on the
skin surface.
Based on the clinical finding, melanoma can be divided into:
1. Superficial Spreading Melanoma (SSM)
SSM is the most common subtypes melanoma. The lesions have irregular borders, irregular
pigmentation, or it may present a discrete focal area of darkening within preexisting nevus.
The lesions slowly changing over months to years.
Figure 41. Superficial Spreading Melanoma
2. Nodular Melanoma (NM)
Nodular Melanoma is the second most common subtypes melanoma. The trunk is the most
common site. Nodular Melanoma have rapid evolution, over several weeks to years. Nodular
Melanoma typically appeared as dark blue-black our bluish-red raised lession, but 5% cases
are amelanotic.

Figure 42. Nodular Melanoma
3. Lentigo Maligna (LM) and Lentigo Maligna Melanoma (LMM)
Lentigo Maligna is a subtype of melanoma in situ with a prolonged radial growth phase that
may progress to invasive LMM with time. The most common location is on the chronically sun-
exposed face, cheeks, nose, neck, scalp, and ear. Lentigo Maligna is flat, slowly enlaging
brown, freckle like macule with irregularly shaped and differing shades of brown and tan.
Lentigo Maligna Melanoma is frequently larger than LM. Both LM and LMM have ill-defined
borders.

4. Acral Lentiginous Melanoma (ALM)
Acral Lentiginous Melanoma is a subtype of melanoma in the darker-pigmented individual.
The most common site ALM is the sole, palm, and subungual. The clinical appearance ALM
can be brown, black, tan, or red with variegations on color and irregular bordees, however,
the most common color is brown-black. Subungual ALM, arised from nail matrix, most
commonly on great toe or thumb. It appeared as a brown to black discoloration or growth in
the nail bed.

Figure 45. Acral Lentiginous Melanoma
Diagnosis cutaneous melanoma can be made by using ABCD rule, 7 point check list using
dermoscopy examination. The gold standard for diagnosis melanoma is based on a
histopathologic evaluation of the specimen. Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB) can be used for
evaluation of regional metastasis melanoma on the lymph node. For evaluation distant metastasis
can be used imaging modalities such as CT-scan, MRI, PET, Chest X-ray, and hematologic test
Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH).

Treatment of primary cutaneous melanoma is exsicion, the current recomended margin for exicion
based on Breslow depth from histopatoly examnination. Treatment for regional metastatis
cutaneous melanoma on lymph node is complete node dissection, give chemotherapy agent use
isolated lymp perfusion or isolated lymp infusion method. Treatment for distant metastasis
cutaneous melanoma is systemic chemotherapy and immunotherapies like decarbazine (DTIC),
Temozolomide (TMZ), or high doses interleukin-2 (IL-2).
6.5 Abcess Incision and Drainage
AIM: Once an abscess has formed an antibiotic cannot penetrate the avascular slough lining
the cavity. It is only after the abscess has been incised and the slough scraped away that the
antibiotic as well as the body’s own cellular and humoral defenses gain access to the cavity and
eradicate the infection.

1. Steril gloves
2. Sterile gauze.
3. Skin antiseptic agent
4. Local anesthetic (1% lidocaine)
5. Syringe with 25-gauge needle for anesthetic administration
6. No. 11 blade scalpel
7. Hemostat
8. Syringe and saline for irrigation
9. Dressing supplies.
PROCEDURE (Modified Hilton’s Method):
1. Put on sterile gloves.
2. Carry out draping and isolation of surgical site.
3. Clean the surgical site with an antiseptic agent.

9. Irrigate cavity with an antiseptic (povidone iodine, hydrogen peroxide), followed by irrigation
with saline.
10. Pack the cavity with roller gauze (bleeding due to congested vessels and granulation tissue
in the wall is controlled by tight packing).
11. Apply a sterile dressing and secure with adhesive tape.
POST-PROCEDURE:
1. Give broad spectrum antibiotics until culture and sensitivity report available
2. After that, give specific antibiotics according to the report
3. Analgesics
4. Anti-inflammatory
5. Instruct the patient to not disturb the dressing until the first follow-up visit.
6.6 Enucleation
AIM: Enucleation technique can be used to remove the molluscum body in molluscum
contagiosum, which is a common skin infection caused by a pox virus ussualy present as raised
nodule with an umbilicated centre. The cellular material within the central umblication is extracted
manually using a needle.
EQUIPMENT:
1. Sterile needle 16 to 18 gauge
2. Alcohol swab.
PROCEDURE:
1. Swab the affected skin area with an alcohol swab.
2. Using a sterile needle, cut across the body of the molluscum lesion with the needle.
3. Remove the contents of the papule with an alcohol swab.
POST-PROCEDURE:
Minimal care is needed which includes keeping the wound dry and applying an antibiotic ointment
and simple daily dressing.
6.7 Elliptical or Fusiform Excision
Study Guide Basic Clinical Skills Block Skin and Hearing Systems and Disorders
Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
42
AIM: The design and execution of a fusiform ellipse are fundamental skills of skin surgery. The
purpose of this procedure is to remove a skin specimen and in the process produce a cosmetically
acceptable linear scar. Although the nomenclature for the procedure may vary depending upon
the design (eg, elliptical, fusiform, tangent-to-circle), the purpose remains the same.
EQUIPMENT:
1. Surgical marking pen
2. Lidocaine 1-2% with or without epinephrine
3. Syringes, 5 to 10 mL
4. Needles, 27 to 30 gauge for injection
5. Sterile gloves
6. Electrosurgical instrument for hemostasis (optional to have one for cutting)
7. No. 15 scalpel or No. 15c and blade handle
8. Adson forceps (with and without teeth)
9. Iris scissors (optional to have another scissor for undermining)
10. Webster needle holder (consider gold-handled holder with carbide inserts)
11. Mosquito hemostats
12. Skin hooks (single, sharp prong)
13. Cotton-tipped applicators (CTAs) and gauze
14. Skin preparation solution (chlorhexidine or povidone-iodine)
15. Sterile drapes and a single fenestrated drape
16. Suture materials
17. Specimen container with formalin and label
18. Dressings: 2 × 2 gauzes, 4 × 4 gauzes, adhesive tape
PROCEDURE:
1. The fusiform excision is designed with a 3 to 1 length-to-width ratio, oriented in the direction
of the lines of least skin tension. The excision lines can be marked on the skin using a skin-
marking pen.
2. The skin is prepped with chlorhexidine or povidone-iodine solution and anesthetized with 1%
or 2% lidocaine with or without epinephrine. The hemostatic benefit of epinephrine is added
for most procedures, except when the surgery is performed on the digits or the tip of the nose.
The anesthetic can be administered with a 10-mL syringe and a 30-gauge needle for
enhanced patient comfort.
3. Following administration of the anesthetic, sterile gloves can be applied, the skin can be
reprepped with povidone-iodine solution, and a sterile fenestrated paper drape placed over
Study Guide Basic Clinical Skills Block Skin and Hearing Systems and Disorders
Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
43
the surgical field. Sterile bandages can be used at the edge of the fenestration to keep the
drape from shifting and prevent unprepped skin from appearing through the drape hole.
4. The incision is made with a no.15 scalpel blade held vertical to the skin. Inward beveling, or
“wedging,” is discouraged. The first pass of the scalpel on each wound edge should be smooth
and continuous to prevent notching of the skin. A second pass of the blade may be needed to
extend these incisions down to the level of the fat. Some 4x4 gauze can be used to wipe the
surgical field clear of blood.
5. The scalpel is turned parallel to the skin surface to undermine the central fusiform island of
skin. The central island of skin is lifted with Adson forceps with teeth as the scalpel is moved
in the level of the upper fat. Once the central island of skin is removed, it is immediately placed
in formalin and retained for histologic evaluation.
6. Bleeding sites in the wound base can be controlled by applying hemostats or suture ligation.
The lateral tissues are elevated with a non disposable skin hook or a disposable hook. The
lateral skin edges are not lifted with Adson forceps because the forceps may cause tissue
necrosis. The lateral skin edges are undermined with a horizontally held scalpel or scissors in
the level of the upper fat; 3 cm of lateral undermining is required for every 1 cm of skin edge
relaxation.
7. Interrupted, deep-buried sutures are placed to eliminate dead space at the wound base,
promote healing, reduce tension on the skin sutures, and improve the final cosmetic
appearance of the scar.
8. Once the suturing is completed, the wound should be squeezed gently to remove any residual
blood from beneath the wound that will interfere with healing. Direct pressure can be applied
with gauze by the patient for 10 minutes or more to assist with hemostasis. The assistant then
cleans the site with saline solution, applies antibiotic ointment, and places a pressure dressing
(elastic bandage over gauze).
POST-PROCEDURE:
1. Broad spectrum antibiotics
2. Analgesics
3. Anti-inflammatory
4. Instruct the patient to not disturb the dressing until the first follow-up visit
6.8 Nail Avulsion
The removal of the nail plate can be carried out using distal or proximal approaches. In both
techniques, inserting the blunt instrument back and forth between the horny layer of the proximal
nail fold and the nail plate loosens the proximal nail fold adherence.
Study Guide Basic Clinical Skills Block Skin and Hearing Systems and Disorders
Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
44
Figure 48. A). Distal nail avulsion; B). Proximal nail avulsion
In the more commonly used distal approach, a Freer septum elevator or a dental spatula is
inserted between the nail plate and nail bed (fig 1). The nail is separated from its nail bed
attachment using proximal force applied in anterior-posterior movements so as not to injure the
longitudinal ridges of the nail bed. The detachment is completed by firmly pushing the instrument
into the posterolateral corners of the nail plate. Then, one of the lateral edges is grasped with a
sturdy hemostat, and extracted with an upward and circular movement to accomplish the removal
of the nail plate. The proximal approach for nail avulsion is advisable when the subungual distal
area adheres strongly to the nail plate and when the hyponychium may be injured by the
subungual introduction of the spatula. The proximal nail fold is freed as described in Distal
Approach. The spatula is then used to reflect the proximal nail fold, and is delicately inserted
under the base of the nail plate where adherence is normally weak. The instrument is advanced
distally following the natural cleavage plane, and this operation is repeated on the entire width of
the subungual region. After the last attachments are freed, the nail plate is easily pulled out.
Study Guide Basic Clinical Skills Block Skin and Hearing Systems and Disorders
Department of Medical Education - Faculty of Medicine – Universitas Udayana, 2017
45
Total surgical removal should be discouraged, however, because the distal nail bed may shrink
and become dislocated dorsally. In addition, the loss of counter pressure produced by the removal
of the nail plate allows expansion of the distal soft tissue, and the distal edge of the regrowing nail
then embeds itself. In patients at high risk, nonsurgical removal of the nail plate should be
considered when necessary. This can be accomplished by applying 40% urea paste directly to
the nail after protecting the surrounding skin. Urea acts on the bond between nail keratin and
diseased nail plate, sparing only the normal nail tissue.
PARTIAL NAIL AVULSION
Partial distal avulsion requires only separation of the nail from the distal nail bed. This procedure
can be performed under local anesthesia, when, for instance, a fungal infection is of limited extent.
An affected portion of the nail plate may be removed in one session, even when the disease has
reached the deeper regions of the subungual tissue beneath the proximal nail fold. Commonly,
an English anvil nail splitter or a double-action bone rongeur is used for this procedure.
Partial surgical section of the lateral and/or medial segment of the nail plate may be sufficient for
the treatment of distal lateral subungual onychomycosis. In the toe, this procedure leaves enough
normal nail to counteract the upward forces exerted on the distal soft tissue when walking, and
this will prevent the appearance of a distal nail wall.

transversely, leaves the distal portion of the nail in place (Fig 2), which decreases discomfort.
Similarly, an acute paronychia that does not respond to appropriate antibiotics within 48 hours
should be treated surgically by removing the base of the nail plate.
TRAP DOOR NAIL AVULSION
This technique minimizes trauma in nail surgery when accessing the nail bed and matrix. Trap
door nail plate avulsion entails the separation of all periungual attachments except for that
between the dorsum of the nail and the ventral aspect of the proximal nail fold. Both are then
reflected in the bloc in the manner of a trap door, utilizing the same oblique incisions normally
made for resection of the PNF alone.

BCS 7: Valsalva Maneuver, Cleaning of MAE, Foreign bodies, and Cerumen
Extraction
Andi Dwi Saputra
7.1 Valsava Maneuver
When a person has a feeling of fullness in his or her ears, it is usually the person will attempt to
spontaneously relieve the discomfort by equating the pressure between the middle ear and the
environment through accelerating air circulation through the Eustachian tube by moving the jaw,
swallowing and advocating equalizer technique/ pressure balancing between the outer ear and
middle ear with Toynbee and Valsava maneuver. Toynbee maneuver is done by closing/ punching
the nose with the fingers and then shut up and swallowing saliva, while Valsava maneuver done
by closing/ punching the nose with the fingers, shut the mouth and then blowing with the closed
mouth.
The Valsava maneuver comes from the name of the Italian anatomist Antonio Maria Valsalva
(1666-1723), who first described this procedure by covering both sides of the nose and mouth
and blowing on the cheek with forced expiration. This causes an increase in air pressure in the
posterior space of the nose and into the Eustachian tubes, inflating the middle ear cavity and
producing prominent movements of the tympanic membrane. This movement is most visible in
the superior-posterior quadrant of the eardrum and can be easily seen through the ear canal.

7.2 Foreign Body In Canalis Auditorius Externa (CAE)
Any foreign body that entering to CAE must be removed. Handling must certainly remember and
know the anatomy of the outer ear. The ear canal as part of the outer ear has a unique structure
where the outer 1/3 contains thick connective tissue and cartilage while the inner 2/3 is thinner
and directly attached to the periosteum.
The outside of the ear canal also contains glands that produce cerumen where it also functions
as a protection of ear canal from foreign body and infections. Basically, cerumen do not need to
be cleaned actively because the ear canal has a cleansing mechanism. The use of tools to clean
the cerumen will actually push the cerumen more in and make the skin layer damaged.
Cerumen is cleaned when it caused complaints such as a full sense of the ear and hearing loss.
Some methods to clean cerumen include irrigation with warm and sterile water, using a hook,
cotton applicator, or forceps.

The various foreign body can enter into the ear canal both living things such as insects and
inanimate objects such as mote. Usually more often happened in children because the habit of
inserting objects into the ear. Management of foreign body should be done carefully and according
to ability. Visualization should be clear into the ear canal because it is not infrequently
accompanied by swelling of the ear canal. The method of taking a foreign body in the ear canal
can also be done by using a hook for a round object, forceps for paper or easily clamped objects,
irrigation when a foreign body is small and close to the tympanic membrane.
Small insects that entering the ear canal must be killed first by using water, coconut oil, or non-
irritating alcohol in the ear canal.
Complications that can be experienced when removing foreign bodies include skin excoriation of
the ear canal, bleeding, post-action infections, and rupture of the tympanic membrane. To avoid
such things must be done carefully, using appropriate tools, and keep the child's peace.

Aim : To study the auditory examination with tuning forks.
Tools and Materials : Tuning forks 256 Hz, 512 Hz, and 100 Hz
Figure 57. Tuning Forks
Working Procedure :
Hearing Test:
1. Rinne test :
a. Vibrate the 256 Hz tuning fork by hitting on the palm of the hand (never on hard objects).
b. Press the rod of the vibrating tuning forks on the mastoid process of one of the ears.
c. When the patient can no longer feel/hear the vibration, the tuning fork is held in front of
the ear.
d. The patient should once more be able to hear a ringing sound (Rinne-positive).
e. If they cannot, there is a conductive hearing loss in that ear (Rinne-negative).
f. Repeat the experiment with the other ear.

2. Weber test:
a. Vibrate the 512 Hz tuning fork by hitting on the palm of the hand (never on hard objects).
b. Placed tuning fork on the patient forehead.
c. The patient is then asked if the sound is localized in the center of the head or whether it
is louder in either ear.
d. If hearing equally well in both ears is called no lateralization. When the sound is heard
stronger in one ear, then called there is lateralization to the ear that hears the stronger
sound.
e. If there is a conductive hearing loss, it is likely to be louder in the affected ear; if there is
a sensorineural hearing loss, it will be quieter in the affected ear.
f. in this experiment, If not lateralization, in an attempt to obtain artificial lateralization, then
close one ear with cotton, and repeat the above experiment.

3. Schwabach:
a. Vibrate the 100 Hz tuning fork by hitting on the palm of the hand (never on hard objects)
b. Press the rod of the vibrating tuning forks on the mastoid process of one of the ears.
c. ask the patient to raise his hand when the sound disappears, and at that moment the
examiner moves the tuning fork on his own mastoid process.
d. If the sound is still audible by the examiner, it is called a shortened Schwabach.
e. If the examiner does not hear that sound, then repeat the above experiment, only the
sequence is reversed. The examiner first listens, when no longer heard is transferred to
the patient. When the patient still hears the sound it was called Schwabach elongated.
f. When patient not to hear again, then it says no Schwabach elongated or shortened.

Placement of pressure:
The placement of pressure that must be distinguished from the ability to recognize the basic touch.
a. The examiner emphasizes the pencil tip firmly at a point on the skin.
b. Patients whose eyes are closed is asked to show the pencil tip as close as possible to the
point that was stimulated.
c. The examiner measures the distance between the two points.
d. Do this experiment five times each on the finger, palm, inside of the upper arm and the
back of the neck. Calculate the average for each region.
Tactile discrimination:
a. Specify with the equipment (geometric compass tool), the threshold of distinguishing two
points from the skin of the back of your hand. Measure how many mm/ cm the distance.
b. Do the same on the tips of fingers, nape, lips, and cheeks.
c. All experiments should be done twice, from a large distance between two ends of the
equipment and vice versa, until the threshold is obtained.
d. Try again this experiment, where both ends of the equipment are not touched at the same
time but in a row. Are the results the same? Explain!
