Long nerve grafts are prone to chronic denervation, often resulting in unsatisfactory clinical outcomes. The authors aim investigate whether supercharge end-to-side (SETS) motor transfers a long graft can potentially enhance regeneration and functional outcomes.A reversed was interposed between the C6 musculocutaneous 48 rats. nerves near proximally distally were chosen for SETS transfer graft. There four groups: (A) only, (B) proximal transfer, (C) distal (D) double transfers. A grooming...
Medical conferences are forums for research, continuing medical education, and networking. Social media is increasingly used communication networking due to its low cost ability overcome large distances. This study investigates the impact that social brings current conference system. There three parts of this study: (1) comparing two similar brachial plexus injuries (BPIs) courses without (2009) with (2017) support, participants' feedback; (2) sharing our experiences in management 2018...
Abstract Background Postoperative complications after flap‐coverage in sarcoma treatment can postpone postoperative adjunct treatments. Here, we present our experience with the use of superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator (SCIP) flap resection. Patients and Methods undergoing immediate reconstruction surgery a resection at single institution from February 2017 to April 2020 were identified. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, surgical examined. Results Thirty‐five...
Thoracic sympathectomy to treat palmar hyperhidrosis (PH) has widely been performed. Many patients regret the surgery due compensatory (CH), gustatory hyperhidrosis, arrhythmia, hypertension, gastrointestinal disturbances, and emotional distress. Robotic applications in microsurgery are very limited. We report technique long-term patient-reported outcomes of bilateral robot-assisted microsurgical sympathetic trunk reconstruction with a sural nerve graft an interdisciplinary setting. A...
Brachial plexus injuries are devastating. Current reconstructive treatments achieve limited partial functionality. Vascularized brachial allotransplantation could offer the best nerve graft fulfilling like-with-like principle. In this experimental study, we assessed feasibility of rat and analyzed its functional outcomes.A free vascularized with a chimeric compound skin paddle flap based on subclavian vessels was transplanted from Brown Norway to Lewis rat. This study has 2 parts. Protocol I...
The blood supply of peripheral nerves consists a complex internal vessels' network, feeding external vessels and the interlinking vasa nervorum. Patients with nerve damage may require substitution. While commonly performed avascular grafts obtain vascularization only from random slow inosculation into nervorum, their insufficient revascularization causes loss graft's potential due to central necrosis. This gets more relevant larger diameter injured. Examples for neurovascular flaps are...
Abstract Background Long nerve grafts will affect muscle recovery. Aim of this study is to investigate if supercharged end-to-side (SETS) sensory transfer long graft can enhance functional outcomes in brachial plexus animal model. Methods A reversed (20–23-mm) was interposed between C6 and musculocutaneous (MCN) 48 SD rats. The nerves adjacent the proximal distal coaptation sites were used for SETS. There four groups with 12 rats each: (A) alone, (B) SETS transfer, (C) (D) combined...
Secondary lymphedema is a leading sequela of cancer surgery and radiotherapy. The microsurgical transfer lymph node flaps (LNFs) to affected limbs can improve the symptoms. intra-abdominal cavity contains an abundant heterogenic source. aim this study aid selection among LNFs.Eight LNFs were harvested in fashion at five sites 16 cadavers: gastroepiploic, jejunal, ileal, ileocolic, appendicular. These compared regarding size, weight, arterial diameter, (LN) count after histologic...
<title>Abstract</title> <bold>Introduction:</bold> The wide resection and microsurgical free flap coverage are main pillars of the multimodal treatment soft tissue malignancies. In challenging subpopulation patients with preexisting hypercoagulabilities or documented vascular diseases, perioperative bridging anticoagulation is advised, which considered by some surgeons as challenging. authors investigate outcomes complication in this shedding light on prophylactic therapeutic...
Background: Reconstruction of brachial plexus injuries (BPIs) at a delayed time point may prolong the denervation target muscles and jeopardize outcome. Sensory protection has been hailed as promising technique that help preserve muscle mass restore functional We utilize rat model to investigate difference between early delay repair, evaluate if sensory distal nerves can assist in repair. Materials Methods: Forty-eight Lewis rats were randomly assigned four groups ( n = 12 each group,...
