A Case Of Median Raphe Cysts In 8-Year-Old Male, Christina Guo, Marshall Hall, Garrett Furth, Henry Lim, Olivia Gruver, Dustin Wilkes, Stephen E. Weis

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

Background: The median raphe cyst is a rare, benign, congenital condition characterized by small, fluid-filled cysts that develop along the ventral midline of male external genitalia. These cysts are usually asymptomatic during infancy and childhood but tend to grow in size as the patient grows. These can become cosmetically concerning or symptomatic due to swelling, irritation, and discomfort. They may also present social and psychological stress to patients and families. We present a case of median raphe cysts in an 8-year-old male.

Case Presentation: An 8-year-old male without a prior medical history who presented to dermatology for penile lesions. He …

Evaluating The Alt-70 Model For Cellulitis Management In The Emergency Department, Marshall Hall, Paige Loux, Henry Lim, Jeffrey Durbin, Garrett Furth, Olivia Gruver, Christina Guo, Dustin Wilkes, Michael Carletti, Stephen E. Weis

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

Background: Cellulitis is a common skin infection that classically presents with unilateral lower extremity erythema, swelling, and pain. The diagnosis is made clinically. Many conditions may mimic cellulitis that are collectively referred to as “pseudocellulitis.” These include stasis dermatitis, deep vein thrombosis, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, and gout. The Alt-70 model is a validated clinical prediction tool for differentiating cellulitis from pseudocellulitis. It is unclear if it is utilized or if it has changed clinical practice in the emergency department setting.

Methods: This was a retrospective chart review study utilizing the HCA Healthcare Data Warehouse. The Alt-70 model was applied using …

Excision Followed By Standing Cone Deformity Repair Is Tissue Conservative, Henry Lim, Christian Scheufele, Marshall Hall, Stephen Weis, Dustin Wilkes

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

Introduction Elliptical excisions are the most common method to treat benign and malignant tumors in dermatologic surgery. This standardized design is traditionally 3 to 4.5 times longer than the excisional width to prevent unsightly protrusions of skin after primary closure, known as “standing cone,” “Burow’s triangles” or “dog ear” deformities. This results in a scar significantly longer than the original tumor that may be less easily concealed.

Objective To compare the final repair length of a tissue conservative method to remove skin tumors and close resultant defects against predicted repair length of traditional elliptical excision.

Methods Eighteen cases are presented …

Inpatient Dermatology: Dermatology Consults At Medical City Fort Worth, Olivia Gruver, Marshall Hall, Henry Lim, Christina Guo, Garrett Furth, Stephen E. Weis, Dustin Wilkes, Michael Carletti

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

Background: Inpatient dermatology is an important yet evolving field. There has been a linear decrease in the number of dermatologists providing inpatient care and in the number of medical centers with an inpatient dermatology service. Medical centers with inpatient dermatology services are unevenly distributed geographically, with most in larger metropolitan areas. There is still a great need for dermatologic expertise in the inpatient setting. We aim to examine the utility of the dermatologic consult service, including the most common chief complaints and conditions that prompted consultation over four months at Medical City Fort Worth.

Methods: This was a retrospective chart …
