When they occur in the preauricular region, attention should be paid to the diagnosis and approach; in fact, controversy exists in the differential diagnosis between hair follicle nevi, accessory tragus, and skin tag. Misdiagnosis and failure of treatment can lead to serious consequences, such as chondritis.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Materials and Methods\u2003In our retrospective study, we evaluated 19 newborns affected by single, unilateral skin tag in the preauricular region. Each patient underwent a careful clinical examination; lesions without a pilosebaceous unit and with a thin, soft pedicle were treated in the nursery with Ligaclip (Johnson &amp; Johnson).<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Results\u2003Skin tag falls between day 7 and 10. We had no cases of edema, cellulitis, clip loss, or bleeding. Scarring results were extremely satisfactory at 3-month follow-up.<\/jats:p><jats:p>\n          Conclusion\u2003We believe that after a careful clinical examination, cases of skin tags in the preauricular area can be selected and treated with Ligaclip. This procedure can be considered rapid, safe, economical, and simple in the newborn patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0040-1712931","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,8]],"date-time":"2020-06-08T23:41:35Z","timestamp":1591659695000},"page":"273-275","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Ligaclip for Preauricular Skin Tags in the Newborn"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"31","author":[{"given":"Fabrizio","family":"Schonauer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Universit\u00e0 degli Studi di Napoli Federico II Scuola di Medicina e Chirurgia, Federico II University, Naples, Campania, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0685-6200","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Antonio","family":"Guastafierro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic Surgery, Universit\u00e0 degli Studi della Campania Luigi Vanvitelli, Caserta, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elisabetta","family":"Grasso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Universit\u00e0 degli Studi di Napoli Federico II Scuola di Medicina e Chirurgia, Federico II University, Naples, Campania, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sara","family":"Izzo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic Surgery, Universit\u00e0 degli Studi della Campania Luigi Vanvitelli, Caserta, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Giovanni Francesco","family":"Nicoletti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Plastic Surgery, Universit\u00e0 degli Studi della Campania Luigi Vanvitelli, Caserta, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Francesco","family":"D'Andrea","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Universit\u00e0 degli Studi di Napoli Federico II Scuola di Medicina e Chirurgia, Federico II University, Naples, Campania, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,6,8]]},"reference":[{"issue":"04","key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"644","DOI":"10.1007\/s00266-015-0508-6","article-title":"Fast and painless skin tag excision with ethyl chloride","volume":"39","author":"T G\u00f6rg\u00fcl\u00fc","year":"2015","journal-title":"Aesthetic Plast Surg"},{"issue":"12","key":"ref2","first-page":"1191","article-title":"Enlarging, pedunculated skin lesion.
