Abstract Burns represent the fifth most common cause of nonfatal childhood injuries in world. The Nile tilapia skin (Oreochromis niloticus) is widely available Brazil and demonstrated, previous studies, noninfectious microbiota, morphological structure similar to that human skin, good outcomes when used as a xenograft for treatment experimental burns rats. A 3-year-old boy was admitted burn center Fortaleza, Brazil, with scalds left side face, neck, anterior thorax, abdomen, arm. Involvement...
Abstract Skin substitutes are considered a useful alternative for occlusive dressings in the treatment of superficial burns as they reduce frequency dressing replacement. This phase II randomized controlled trial aimed to evaluate efficacy Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) skin an xenograft burn wounds humans. In order assess use skin, following variables were evaluated: number days wound healing, times was changed, anesthetics or analgesics, pain assessment using Visual Analogue Scale,...
Background: In a phase II study comparing Nile tilapia fish skin to silver sulfadiazine cream for outpatient management of superficial partial-thickness burns, the decreased reepithelialization time (average reduction, 1.43 days), dressing changes 3.72 dressings), and visual analogue scale pain scores. The present aimed further evaluate efficacy burns. Unlike cream, has good adherence wound bed, which may prevent infections decrease need changes. Thus, it could be low-cost alternative hasten...
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Nile tilapia skin as a xenograft for treatment partial-thickness burn wounds in children. is an open-label, monocentric, randomized phase II pilot conducted Fortaleza, Brazil. The population consisted 30 children between ages 2 and 12 years with superficial "partial-thickness" burns admitted less than 72 hours from thermal injury. In test group, was applied. control thin layer silver sulfadiazine cream 1% Tilapia showed good adherence wound bed,...
Tilapia skin showed good results when used as a biological graft for surgical management of Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome. Thus, our researchers considered the use this biomaterial neovaginoplasty in radiation-induced vaginal stenosis. We report case 41-year-old female patient with total occlusion canal after radiotherapy cancer. McIndoe using tilapia scaffold proliferation new epithelium was performed. Initially, laparoscopic dissection rectovaginal septum and vesicovaginal space...
Despite a considerable decrease in its incidence worldwide, burns remain the fourth most common type of trauma. The majority are small, with 75% injuries treated on an outpatient basis. Tilapia skin, as biological material, has been suggested option for management burn wounds. After good results were obtained use glycerolised version tilapia skin burned children and adults, it was hypothesised that similar outcomes could be achieved lyophilised skin. We report case 33-year-old female patient...
Abstract Glycerolized Nile tilapia skin (NTS) showed promising results when used for burn treatment in phases II and III randomized controlled trials. This pilot study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of lyophilized NTS (LNTS) as a temporary substitute superficial partial-thickness burns by comparing it with silver-impregnated sodium carboxymethylcellulose dressing. was randomized, prospective, open-label, conducted Fortaleza, Brazil, from April 2019 December 2019. The 24 participants had...
Recently, the use of type I collagen obtained from Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was proposed for treatment second and third-degree burning lesions diabetic ulcers due to its occlusive healing properties. The aim this report is describe tilapia skin as an barrier protect palatal wounds after removal free autogenous soft tissue grafts. Two patients with a deficiency in height keratinized mucosa were indicated gingival donor area covered skin, stabilized by sutures. Seven days surgery,...
Vaginal agenesis is a rare mal-formation of the lower female genital tract, with prevalence 1 in 5000 newborns. Mayer‑Rokitansky‑Kuster‑Hauser (MRKH) syndrome represents 90% all causes and caused by partial or complete aplasia Mullerian ducts. The majority these women have uterine agenesis. Primary amenorrhea first clinical sign, patients 46 XX karyotype, functioning ovaries normal external genitalia.Creating satisfactory neovagine when sexual activity desired primarily goal treatment. This...
Background: Wounds are disruptions of the normal continuity anatomic structures, generally due to local trauma. They extremely prevalent in animals, especially horses, and a common reason for seeking veterinary attention. Their management aims restore function integrity affected area shortest possible time cost, while providing satisfactory cosmetic results. This task becomes challenging when working with considering contact between wounds contaminated environment is common. Thus, present...
The acellular protein matrix from tilapia skin has excellent biomechanical properties, lack of immunogenicity and high biocompatibility in vitro vivo. Therefore, it provides an environment conducive to cell regeneration, specifically more invasive delicate applications, such as the recovery corneal ulcers dogs cats. objective this literature review is present use scaffold a new approach veterinary ophthalmology treatment injuries relation conventional methods. When applied ulcers,...
