Retinal phlebitis complicated by punctate inner choroidopathy-like lesions: a case report. (PubMed, Am J Ophthalmol Case Rep) - "Treatment with oral prednisolone and sub-Tenon triamcinolone acetonide injections controlled the inflammation, and intravitreal aflibercept injections managed the CNV. At the two-year follow-up, the corrected visual acuity improved to 1.2. The distribution of lesions along the retinal veins suggests that this case represents a presentation of PIC-like lesions secondary to retinal phlebitis."

Efficacy and safety of polynucleotide injection for the treatment of hypertrophic scars and keloids on abdomen: a randomized, double-blinded, split-scar study (EADV 2025) - "The secondary objective is to assess the potential side effects of PDRN treatment in comparison to intralesional corticosteroid injections (triamcinolone acetonide)... Polynucleotide (PN) injections are effective in reducing scar height and pigmentation in hypertrophic scars and keloids. The PN treatment showed superior outcomes compared to intralesional corticosteroid injections, especially in terms of pigmentation and hemoglobin index. These findings suggest that PN could be a promising alternative for managing scars."

Elucidating medication waste for outpatient clinic procedures with intralesional triamcinolone (SID 2025) - "We conducted a retrospective chart review for patients receiving intralesional steroid injections with Kenalog-40 or Kenalog-10 at our academic institution from 01/01/2020–12/31/2023 for the treatment of scars, keloids, or different types of alopecia. Our results highlight an urgent opportunity to reduce unnecessary medical waste from single-use medications and the importance of considering how our daily practice affects our environmental impact. Encouraging sustainable practices such as optimizing medication dosing and preparation, implementing a return program for unused medication, and increasing awareness may help minimize medical waste in dermatology."
