Background: There are limited reconstructive options for the treatment of segmental bone defects upper extremity that >6 cm in length, especially those associated with soft-tissue defects. The purpose present review was to report on our experience fifteen patients who received an osteoseptocutaneous fibular transplant reconstruction a humeral defect. Methods: study cohort included eight male and seven female average age forty-one years. indications procedure nonunion (nine patients), gunshot...
Coverage of exposed functional structures such as tendons, bones, vessels, or nerves at the dorsal and palmar surface hand requires thin, supple tissue to provide adequate range motion a satisfying aesthetic result. The purpose this retrospective study was evaluate results after coverage with free fascial flaps. From 1994–2002, 14 patients underwent flap 4 tempo-parietal fascia flaps 11 serratus Eight could be reexamined answered questionnaire about their satisfaction results. mean follow-up...
Doxorubicin and epirubicin are strong antineoplastic agents widely used in chemotherapy. One major complication of their use is skin sloughing after subcutaneous extravasation, the degree which often underestimated. Both drugs have a tendency to produce liquefying necrosis soft tissue chronic ulcers if extravasation occurs. Three cases surgical treatment final results presented. In doxorubicin it very important perform an early extensive débridement with delayed closure avoid-long...
Quality of life (QoL) can be assessed in an accurate, valid and reliable way by means standardized QoL questionnaires is important endpoint clinical trials today. The aim this study to implement quality as a diagnostic tool for problem-oriented follow-up care cancer patients. This done the framework intervention area regional health research using qualitative analysis methodological concept barrier analysis. We developed generating individual, graphic profiles based on patients' responses...
This article reviews the recent evolution of perforator flaps. The tie between flaps and skin as well musculocutaneous is explained. paraumbilical flap, deep inferior epigastric artery flap (DIEP flap), gluteal (GAP flap) various perforator-based are described in combination with review relevant literature. As a prospect into future, technique "supra-microsurgery" presented.
The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical outcome distraction lengthening thumb metacarpal without bone grafting in seven patients with traumatic loss. stopped after 57 (range, 42 91) days, giving a median 28 20–36) mm. It took an average 155 118–196) days for bony consolidation occur. mean pinch power 72% that uninjured hand. two-point discrimination on pulp reconstructed 10 8–12) There were no major complications.
The musculocutaneous tensor fascia lata (TFL) flap provides a small muscle belly and strong fascial layer in combination with abundant skin coverage (15 × 40 cm), which makes the an attractive unit for composite free tissue transfer. TFL was used nine cases of recurrent cancer chest wall (N = 7) abdominal 2). mean size full-thickness defects after tumor excision measured 12 25 cm. operating time ranged from 4 to 8 hours (mean time, 5.5 hours). operation performed two teams, no repositioning...
Lymphangiosarcoma (LAS) is an aggressive, malignant vascular tumor following long-lasting chronic lymphedema. Patients with LAS demonstrate a history of breast cancer treated by radical mastectomy in the majority patients. In 1960s incidence patients 5-year survival after varied from 0.07 to 0.45%. Today, due changes operative techniques cancer, less lymphedema seen only scant number The etiology this enigmatic not yet completely understood. Histologically, arises endotheliocytes, and all...
Coverage of exposed functional structures such as tendons, bones, vessels or nerves at the dorsal and palmar surface hand requires thin, supple tissue to provide adequate range motion a satisfying aesthetic result. Free fascial flaps are possible alternatives cutaneous, fasciocutaneous muscle flaps. The purpose this retrospective study was evaluate results after coverage with free serratus in our department.From 1994 2002, ten patients underwent flap eleven Six could be re-examined answered...
Distal an den dorsalen Metakarpalarterien II bis IV gestielte Lappenplastiken sind zur Defektdeckung mittlerweile als klinische Routineverfahren anzusehen. Nach der Phase Etablierung Varianten klassischen DMCA-Lappenplastik mit Zielsetzung entwickelt worden, die Rekonstruktion noch besser Erfordernisse des Defektes anzupassen. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, Erfahrungen einer Klinik DMCA-Lappenplastiken und ihren darzustellen. Insgesamt wurden von 2000 2004 41 distal durchgeführt. 29-mal wurde...
Einleitung: Patienten mit einer persistierenden Peroneuslähmung sind häufig schwer beeinträchtigt und benötigen orthopädische Hilfsmittel. Mit dem Tibilalis posterior-Transfer kann die Fußhebung wiederhergestellt werden, um das Gangbild der zu verbessern.
