Background and Purpose Muscle flaps are known to be prone local ischemia more than other flaps. The systemic injury that ensues after reperfusion of ischemic skeletal muscle is an important clinical problem in flap surgery. Flap delay may applied chemically or sympathetically. Early use botulinum toxin A (Btx-A) surgery relied on chemical denervation; however, our study, we tried emphasize a possible mechanism Btx-A, through the release substance P calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)...

Background: Malignancies that arise from scars are referred to as Marjolin ulcers. The association between chronic ulcers and squamous cell carcinomas is well established. There many case reports in the literature regarding ulcer; however, randomized controlled clinical series describe a thorough evaluation of these patients rarely encountered. Objective: We present our clinic's 15 years experience with 34 ulcer their treatment modalities. Methods: A retrospective analysis 302 carcinoma who...

Background: One of the main steps for satisfactory breast reconstruction is symmetrical nipple in an ideal position and projection. Various techniques, using cartilage, bone, fat, even hydroxyapatite crystals, have been proposed to overcome projection loss late term. Method: We present a new technique performed 6 cases. In this technique, dome nourished by double pedicle supported lateral flaps. Nipple secured with 4/0 nylon sutures, which are applied between pedicles. Skin excess advanced...

Introduction: Burn healing is a complicated process and very few treatments can positively alter its effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM -Danshen), traditional Chinese medicine, on burn wound healing.Material methods: Twenty rats were included in divided into two groups. 3 × 2 cm wide areas created dorsal skin all animals with thermal contact. Intraoral 1 ml/day saline g/kg/day SM given control experiment groups, respectively. Fourteen days...

An acceleration of the wound healing process expedites chronic patient's return to normal social environments significantly. Sildenafil, a cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent phosphodiesterase- 5 inhibitor has been shown be potent stimulator angiogenesis through upregulation cGMP. In our study, sildenafil was administered orally as cost-effective supplement in treatment full thickness defects and wounds that manner with low incidence side effects morbidity.Randomly selected 72...

A lthough malignant melanoma (MM) accounts for 3% of skin cancers, it is responsible 75% deaths associated with cancer. [1]Melanoma incidence has been considerably rising during the past three decades. [2]The lifelong possibility to develop 1/40 in males and 1/60 females. [3]In regards diagnosis, treatment, management melanoma, some detailed issues could demonstrate variabilities, rendering condi-tion complicated. [4]Although more than 95% cases originate from skin, unknown primary origin...

Acquired partial lipodystrophy is a rare disorder, and it characterized by the absence of subcutaneous fat from face, neck, trunk, upper extremities. The etiology acquired includes scleroderma discoid lupus erythematosus. Literature review reveals studies involving 10 patients until today with lipoatrophy due to or after onset erythematosus; all are female patients. We want report young male patient progressive symmetrical facial lipoatrophy. In addition, he has erythematosus celiac disease....

Amaç: Dupuytren kontraktürü nedeniyle tedavi edilen hastaların retrospektif olarak incelenmesiyle hastalığın kliniğimizdeki profilinin gösterilmesi, etiyolojisi, tanı ve cerrahi tedavisi hakkında bilgi verilmesi amaçlandı.

Bulgular: Hastalarda erkek/kadın...

Objective: Despite its relative high frequency; the recurrence, metastasis and long-term survival rates of hand squamous cell carcinoma have not been well defined.The aim this study was to review a large cohort patients with carcinomas evaluate management techniques, outcomes treatment modalities rates.Methods: A retrospective all surgically excised primary operated between 2006 2011 included in multicenter study.Patients were evaluated regarding age, anatomic location tumor, gender,...

Ear reconstruction is one of the most challenging procedures in plastic surgery practice. Many studies and techniques have been described literature for carving a well-pronounced framework. However, just as important cartilage framework ample amount delicate skin coverage In this report, we introduce an innovative method measuring surface area auricle from three-dimensional template created healthy ear.The study group consisted 60 adult Turkish individuals who were randomly selected (30 men...

Objective: Nodal involvement is important for the prognosis in skin cancers. In absence of palpable lymph nodes or when nodal suspicious, sentinel node biopsy (SLNB) preferred method instead agrressive regional dissection. our study we aimed to share experience regarding SLNB malignant tumors. Material and Method: From August 2009 2015, 30 patients (17 male, 13 female) aged between 21-81, who underwent SLNB, were analysed retrospectively.  Results: Thirty-three SLNBs performed patients....

Amaç: Non-melanom deri kanseri en sık görülen kanser çeşitlerinden olup; epidemiyolojik verilerin ortaya konması, halkın bilinçlendirilmesi açısından önemlidir.Bu çalışmada tümör lokalizasyonuna göre konması amaçlanmıştır

Vasospasm is one of the important causes morbidity in free flap and replantation surgery. In secondary Raynaud's phenomenon, nearly half patients experience digital ulceration, pain loss function at least once their lifetime. The aim this study to investigate vasodilation effect ethanol-mediated chemical denervation on peripheral vessels by topical administration. study, 27 Wistar albino male rats weighing 250-300 grams were used. randomly divided into three groups: saline (group S, n = 8),...

In patients with moderate lower lid laxity, the orbicularis oculi muscle becomes atonic or ptotic. Hence, in such patient populations, periorbital fractures, additional vertical support endorsement either by lateral canthopexy suspension flap must accompany plate and screw fixations. this report, we shared our experience applying prophylactic to turnover transposition zygomatic fractures treated subciliary approach 98 patients. Our results show that avoids rounding of canthal angle more...

The aim of this study was to examine if the application Ankaferd Blood Stopper (ABS) reduces number sutures and therefore anastomosis completion time in a unilateral end-to-end sleeve fish-mouth model.Femoral artery models were created from right left femoral arteries 14 male Wistar albino rats (weight: 250 300 grams) divided into 2 equal groups. Rats Group A received ABS B control group. further subgroups, anastomoses 1A 1B explored on 7th day 14th 2A 2B. groups compared for time,...
