Background: Indocyanine green angiography enables real-time visualization of blood vessels at depths up to 10 mm beneath the body surface, thereby aiding evaluation viability skin flaps and predicting necrosis in surgical fields requiring good tissue perfusion. Although skin-flap also occurs mastectomy without reconstruction, most studies have focused on reconstructive plastic surgery. Several patients undergoing are eligible for postoperative adjuvant therapy, but complications can lead...
Many skin flaps have been described for fingertip reconstruction; however, they not compared histologically. The aim of this study is to compare the histological features common insensate that are used reconstruction.Skin from fingertips and flap donor sites on hand forearm cadavers were harvested. This investigated four characteristics, namely thickness epidermis dermis; ratio collagen elastic fibres (C/E ratio) in subdermal tissues, distribution densities Merkel cells Meissner's...
Disopyramide, a class Ia antiarrhythmic agent, has been reported to induce torsades de pointes (TdP) associated with excessive QT prolongation in electrocardiogram (ECG), especially when concomitantly administered erythromycin, macrolide antibiotic agent. In this study, we have evaluated the effects of erythromycin on action potential duration (APD) and potassium currents rat ventricular myocytes comparison disopyramide. We relationship between in-vitro current inhibition in-vivo observed...
In recent years, breast reconstruction using autologous tissue after cancer surgery has become a common procedure. This study investigated the association between occurrence of complications in deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flaps and patient risk factors among Asian women.This included cases DIEP performed at our institution. We retrospectively relationship preoperative operative postoperative by collecting data from medical records. Sarcopenia was also evaluated calculating...
This study analyzed the blink characteristics of patients with incomplete and complete facial paralysis. The authors measured compared palpebral distance, eyelid movement eye-closing ratio blinks in 55 Bell's palsy or Ramsay Hunt syndrome (Bell & group) 14 paralysis (Complete Paralysis group). Bell group, distance (7.94 mm) was smaller on paralyzed side than non-paralyzed (9.61 mm). eyeclosing upper were reduced (65.3% versus 93.7%, 4.61 7.97 Complete group (25.3% 94.7%, 2.10 8.49 In...
Paralytic lagophthalmos and smile dysfunction are serious complications of facial paralysis various reconstructive procedures have been developed to treat them. Among these procedures, there is no doubt that dynamic more effective than static ones. The 1-stage simultaneous surgical treatment 2 dysfunctions with a procedure involving single muscle would be ideal, but such methods reported. In this article, we present method for the use dual latissimus dorsi flap. method, flaps based on...
Abstract The oncological safety of immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) in lymph node-positive patients is unclear. In the present study, impact IBR on recurrence based data with axillary node metastases only was examined. subjects were 232 who underwent surgery. grouped into 2 cohorts: non-IBR mastectomy dissection; and tissue expander or flap transfer dissection. Non-IBR group included 165 patients, 67 patients. For comparison outcomes between groups, propensity score matching performed....
Sir: There are various commercial products containing titanium that currently being marketed as sports and health promoting. The metal is advertised performance enhancing for a winning athlete, one such advertisement shows therapeutic equipment to treat stiff shoulders headache. What the basis claims benefits human body? If beneficial body, patients who have had surgery repair bone fractures using implants should experience positive influence of titanium. We examined 100 facial fracture (84...
Abstract Background In breast reconstruction with free flaps, retrograde venous anastomosis into the internal mammary vein (IMV) is often unavoidable. Utility of a crossing between right and left IMV, one anatomical foundations which make flow possible, has been reported but only few detailed features. This study evaluated presence, actual location, diameter veins using preoperative imaging such as contrast‐enhanced computed tomography (CECT), or magnetic resonance (CEMRI). Moreover, this...
The main problem with intraoral distraction of the mandible is inability to achieve three-dimensional mandibular correction as planned preoperatively. We developed a technique that allows spontaneous changes in direction elongation using an distractor.After osteotomy, distractor fixed distal segment single bicortical screw, allowing anterior-posterior, vertical and limited lateromedial vector distraction. Mandibular lengthening performed while keeping maxilla class I occlusion intermaxillary...
Background and objectives: In the treatment of special type breast cancer (STBC), choice chemotherapeutic agents is often based on characteristic features histological type. On other hand, surgical strategy usually determined by tumor size presence lymph node metastasis, indication for immediate reconstruction rarely discussed The prognoses STBC invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) patients who underwent subcutaneous mastectomy (SCM) with at our institution were compared. Materials Methods: A...
Abstract We report a patient who underwent secondary reconstruction for facial paralysis involving 2 regions of augmentation and 3 reanimations using neurovascular latissimus dorsi (LD) chimeric flap. A 53-year-old man mid-skull base surgery chondrosarcoma at the temporomandibular joint primary free anterolateral thigh At 28 months after surgery, he showed temporal buccal depression incomplete paralysis. planned 1-stage LD flap, which was divided into dual compounds muscle with soft tissue...
Background The aim of this study was to examine volumetric changes in fat flaps after stresses as well their relationship with capillary density (CD) a Zucker fatty rat model. Methods A total 12 male Zucker‐ fa / rats were randomly divided into two stress groups. Superficial epigastric evaluated on the right side control and left (ischemic or congestive) condition same order avoid biases. Stress conditions made by obstructing pedicle vessels vascular clip for 3 hours. volumes these measured...
There are various commercial tapes and necklaces containing titanium metal that currently being marketed as sports health-promoting products. The is advertised a performance-enhancing accessory for winning athlete, one such advertisement shows piece of therapeutic equipment used to treat stiff shoulders headache. What the basis claims benefits human body? If beneficial body, patients who have had surgery repair facial bones using implants should experience positive influence titanium....
At our institution (Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Hospital), latissimus dorsi flap (LD flap) reconstruction without a prosthetic implant is popular surgical strategy following total mastectomy in patients with breast cancer. The LD flap, especially the extended usually rotated anteriorly through axilla. However, if future additional surgery required for axillary recurrence after reconstruction, interferes visual field, making procedure more difficult. Because cases of lymph node alone...
Background and objectives: Our department has been performing primary breast reconstruction for cancer surgery, incorporating a transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap (TRAM)/vertical (VRAM) since 1998 deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) 2008. Currently, most gastrointestinal operations in abdominal surgery are performed laparoscopically or robot-assisted. Cases which was after using an were reviewed. Method: A total of 119 cases our Result: The reconstructive techniques...
