Background: Vacuum-assisted closure therapy is a relatively new concept described in the literature that increases wound-healing capacity. The authors aimed to investigate effect of vacuum-assisted on wound healing, granulation tissue formation, bacterial clearance, pain, time involvement staff, and total costs all types wounds comparison with modern dressings. Methods: Sixty-five patients chronic or acute were randomized initial treatment authors’ primary endpoint was granulated ready for...
To evaluate if incisional prophylactic negative pressure wound therapy (pNPWT) reduces infections and other complications in high-risk patients undergoing major complex ventral abdominal wall repair.Retrospective before-after comparison nested a consecutive series of elective repair. Starting January 2014, pNPWT was applied on the closed for minimum 5 days. minimize selection bias, we compared two periods 14 months before after 2014. Wound according to Centre Disease Control Surgical Site...
Abstract Purpose Complex abdominal wall repair (CAWR) in a contaminated operative field is challenge. Available literature regarding long-term outcomes of CAWR comprises studies that often have small numbers and heterogeneous patient populations. This study aims to assess modified-ventral hernia working group (VHWG) grade 3 repairs. Because the relevance recurrence (HR) as primary outcome for this contentious, need further surgery (FHS) was also assessed relation survival. Methods A...
Dupuytren's disease (DD) is a benign fibroproliferative of the hand. It characterized by excessive production extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, which form strong fibrous tissue between handpalm and fingers, permanently disrupting fine movement ability. The major contractile element in DD myofibroblast (MFB). This cell has both fibroblast smooth muscle cell-type characteristics causes pathological collagen deposition. MFBs generate forces that are transmitted to surrounding matrix. Μajor...
In the setting of a suspected scaphoid fracture, MRI may result in overdiagnosis and potential overtreatment. This is part because low prevalence true fractures among fractures, but also potentially misleading variations signal that be more common than fracture-related changes. To better understand risk overdiagnosis, we first need insight into relative useful distracting changes patients with fracture.What proportion representing definite possible to other types on fracture?In retrospective...
<b>Background</b> Wrist arthroscopy plays a role in both the diagnosis and treatment of wrist pathology. It has evolved last three decades. <b>Questions</b> The present status was investigated by answering following questions: -What is its current position pathologies according to literature? hand surgeons? <b>Methods</b> Analysis number publications on performed compared with other topics assess arthroscopy. members EWAS (European Arthroscopy Society) eight national surgery societies were...
<b>Purpose</b> In video surgery, and more specifically in arthroscopy, one of the major problems is positioning camera instruments within anatomic environment. The concept computer-guided surgery has already been used ear, nose, throat (ENT), gynecology, even hip arthroscopy. These systems, however, rely on optical or mechanical sensors, which turn out to be restricting cumbersome. aim our study was develop evaluate accuracy a navigation system based electromagnetic sensors surgery....
Background Volar plating for distal radius fractures exposes the risk of extensor tendon rupture, mechanical problems, and osteoarthritis due to protruding screws. Purposes The purpose this review was identify best intraoperative diagnostic imaging modality dorsal intra-articular screws in volar fractures. Methods Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-Analysis guidelines were followed review. In vitro vivo studies that analyzed reliability, efficacy, and/or accuracy...
Background Patients recovering from a variety of wrist injuries are frequently advised to exercise regain lost and hand function. Treatment regimens motion in the highly variable, adherence protocols is known be low. A serious game ReValidate! incorporating standardized was developed motivate patients. In this study, evaluated regarding its face validity content validity. Methods cross-sectional mixed group "users" ( n = 53) including patients currently injury, "experts" 46) professionals...

Material and methods A case series 23 histologically confirmed sclerosus who underwent vulvar surgery because disabling sexual dysfunction. Surgical care provided a university hospital (tertiary referral center) between 2008 2012. interventions were posterior vestibuloplasty...
Background: Little is known about the effects of upper-extremity surgery on manual performance children and adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP). This clinical cohort study describes our experience patient selection based multidisciplinary assessment shared decision-making patient-relevant outcomes. Methods: All patients (up to 20 years age) CP referred team for evaluation between July 2011 May 2017 were included. Suitability was assessed comprehensive, screening, decision proceed made...
