Skin cancer may recur at or around the surgical site despite wide excisions. Prompt clinical and sonographic detection of local recurrence is important since subjects with relapsing melanomas or nonmelanoma malignancies can be managed efficaciously, with a relevant impact on morbidity and survival. Ultrasound is being employed with increasing frequency in the assessment of skin tumors, but most of the published articles relate to initial pretherapeutic diagnosis and staging. This review aims to offer an illustrated guide to the sonographic evaluation of locally recurring skin cancer. We introduce the topic, then we provide some sonographic tips for patient follow‐up, then we describe the ultrasound findings in case of local recurrence, illustrating the main mimickers, and finally, we mention the role of ultrasound in guiding diagnostic and therapeutic percutaneous procedures.

Background: In recent years, fillers procedures with hyaluronic acid (HA) have grown significantly. Despite HA relative safety, the number of cases of complications after injections has grown, and in many of which, we are not aware of or have little control over. Aims:In this article, the authors describe a new adverse reaction after filling with HA injection, the sterile abscess.Patients/Methods: We present eight patients with similar clinical, laboratory, and ultrasound characteristics for sterile abscess and report a new therapeutic modality for it.Results: All cases were treated with "Munhoz-Cavallieri Lavage Protocol" procedure with complete resolution.Conclusions: "Munhoz-Cavallieri Lavage Protocol" serves as a guideline in diagnosis and management of sterile abscess.
