The resulting clinical symptoms are restrictions in the range of motion, pain, and loss of grip strength. The symptomatic treatment so far offers different options. In our study, the Variable Angle Locking Compression Intercarpal Fusion Plate (VA LCP ICF Plate) by Synthes® was used in 11 cases of advanced carpal collapse for a four-corner fusion of the wrist. The intra- and postoperative as well as follow-up results have been assessed and compared with those of current literature. The results of the Manchester-Modified Disability of the Shoulder, Arm and Hand Score (M²-Dash) showed an average of 41.5 points (MD=44/SD=16.62/MIN=21/MAX=65). One of the re-evaluated patients complained about pain at rest. One patient stated pain after mild strain; 4 patients complained pain after heavy burden (e.g. boxing, weight lifting). Measuring the range of motion, the operated hand showed a maximum in dorsal extension of 78.31% and in flexion of 57.89% compared to the contralateral, non-operated hand. In performance testing the fist clenching sign as well as pinch grip were complete and void of pain in 100%, whereas opposition (dig. man.

Gille","doi":"10.3205/iprs000143","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3205/iprs000143","url":null,"abstract":"Objective: Severe burn injuries are associated with a rapid escalating hypermetabolic state and catabolism of muscle mass. To ameliorate this process a standardized approach using pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions was implemented within a single burns center. Whilst individual components of this standardized package are well documented in the literature, their collective or bundled effect has not as yet been assessed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of this standardized bundle of metabolic modulators and assess the safety of including the anabolic steroid oxandrolone within it. Methods: This retrospective observational study constituted all patients in whom the metabolic bundle including oxandrolone therapy was applied. The other elements of the metabolic bundle consisted of early surgical burn excision within seven days to completion, early active mobilization, increased ambient room temperature, expediated carbohydrate and protein rich enteral feeding with glutamine and trace element supplements (such as copper and zinc). Finally, administration of propranolol as a non-selective beta-blocker. Data collection was through review of the patient data management system focusing on the outcome criteria and hepatic blood values. Results: The study looked at fifty consecutive patients meeting the inclusion criteria. Median patient age and burned total body surface area (TBSA) were 62 years [51.75; 73] and 33.75% [24.75; 51] respectively with an abbreviated burn severity index (ABSI) of 10 [9; 10.25]. Definitive surgical burn wound excision was completed in 44 patients [88%] within 7 days. 39 patients (78%) received propranolol over a therapeutic period of 29 days [19; 44]. Glutamine was supplemented in 45 patients (90%), while zinc and copper were applied to 42 (84%) and 31 (62%) respectively. Significant low zinc values were noted at therapeutic onset (6.5 mmol/l [4.7; 7.9]) requiring sustained substitution over 37.5 days [22; 46.75]). In respect of the inclusion criteria, all patients received oxandrolone at 20 mg/day [20; 20]. This was commenced on day 6.5 [4; 14] post burn injury and continued over 26 days [19; 31]. Despite a transitory elevation of hepatic enzyme values (ALT, GGT), these were only clinically relevant (>10 µmol/l*S) in 2.4% and 4.6% of all measurements respectively. None were sufficiently of concern to merit cessation of treatment. Conclusion: The application of a standardised bundle of metabolic treatment options of severe burns injured patients is reliable, repeatable and safe. Potential concerns of oxandrolone treatment regarding hepatic compromise remain unfounded.","PeriodicalId":43347,"journal":{"name":"GMS Interdisciplinary Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery DGPW","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2019-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43546856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Agilinko, Poh Tan","doi":"10.3205/iprs000142","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3205/iprs000142","url":null,"abstract":"Introduction: Traditionally, non-absorbable skin sutures (SS) have been utilised in the closure of the skin in large wounds. More recently, however, skin staples (SC) have been introduced with the aim of reducing closure time and infection rates. Method: A double-blinded randomized controlled trial in all patients undergoing elective open surgeries in a single unit, from May 2007 to May 2010. Data on patient demographics, type of surgery, methods of skin closure, rate of wound infection and cosmetic satisfaction were collected. Patients were then randomly allocated to skin sutures (SS) or skin staples (SC) groups. Patients and investigators were then “blinded” to the arm of trial they were allocated to. Result: In total, 369 patients were recruited, of which 218 patients completed the study. 134 patients were allocated to the SS group with a median age of 67 (IQR 61, 74). SC group had a total of 84 patients with a median age of 69 (IQR 61, 71). 15% of SS group developed wound infection, compared to 20% in SC group (p=0.202). 61% of the SS group claimed better aesthetic results compared to 46% in SC group (p=0.020). Conclusion: Our results demonstrated that patients with non-absorbable subcuticular skin closures had lower infection rates, better cosmetic outcome and better patient satisfaction outcome compared with skin staples. We therefore suggest using subcuticular sutures to close the skin in elective abdominal open surgery.","PeriodicalId":43347,"journal":{"name":"GMS Interdisciplinary Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery DGPW","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2019-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44451584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Women aged >45 years are more likely to have physical injury and anogenital lesions, transmission of STI and HIV. This review focuses on the evidence about surgical reconstruction of the pelvic floor anatomy of adolescents and adult women sexually assaulted during adolescence or adulthood. Method: A systematic literature search was performed in PubMed and Orbis plus for articles published in English and German from June 2008 to June 2018. The literature search was performed in October 2018 by topic combining the following Medical Subject Headings: genital trauma, genital injuries, sexual assault, rape, surgical repair, treatment. Results: 34 records of descriptive studies were identified and 16 full-text articles were included in the present review. Due to the limited number of articles retrieved, articles were not excluded based on methodological design. Superficial genital lesions are common and usually left untreated. For deep vaginal or anal lacerations, intraperitoneal bleeding is usually assessed by means of and additional CT scan or diagnostic colposcopy, cystoscopy, rectoscopy and laparoscopy. Complete reconstruction of the injured is done after. To prevent rectovaginal fistula and uncomplicated primary wound healing a temporary colostomy can be performed. Conclusion: Although most of genital injuries due to sexual assault do not require any major surgical intervention, there is a lack of good quality evidence regarding the best diagnostic and surgical approach to restore deep lesions of genital organs as well lack evidence on contributors to poor wound healing. Therefore, clinical protocols that standardize examination as well as surgical management are encouraged to be developed.","PeriodicalId":43347,"journal":{"name":"GMS Interdisciplinary Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery DGPW","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2019-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49228803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: The retrospective study included 216 patients (♂ 111, ♀ 106, median age 43.3 years). A total of 261 root tip resections were performed on these patients between 1989 and 2012. In addition to determining the success rates 5 and 10 years postoperatively, the factors gender, age, tooth type, use of bone replacement material and preoperative periodontal tooth status were examined with regard to their significance for the long-term prognosis of root tip resected teeth. Results: The evaluation showed an average success rate of 63.6% for all included teeth over the entire observation period (tooth at least one year postoperatively still in situ). The 5-year success rate was 78.2%, the 10-year success rate 63.1%. A dependence of the success rates on the tooth type could not be evaluated. However, the examination showed a clear dependence of the success on the age of the patients. Root tip resections in patients in the age group 60 years and older had significantly worse success rates compared to the age groups 20 to 39 years and 40 to 59 years. The prognosis was also significantly better for patients in the age group 20 to 39 years than for patients in the age group 40 to 59 years. Periodontally compromised teeth showed only a tendency for a poorer prognosis than periodontally healthy teeth. With regard to sex and intraoperative filling of the resection defect with bone replacement material, no differences in the success rates were found. Conclusions: A root tip resection is a good option, largely independent of the type of tooth, to preserve a tooth in the medium to long term after unsuccessful endodontic treatment. However, a revision of the endodontic treatment or even an extraction with subsequent implantation should always be considered as an alternative, especially with increasing age.","PeriodicalId":43347,"journal":{"name":"GMS Interdisciplinary Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery DGPW","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2019-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49503754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

BMI values, the jugulum nipple distance (JND), the breast base, and the maximum breast circumference were determined. The patients answered also a questionnaire with 30 questions on the postoperative quality of life. <b>Results:</b> The results measured after 6 months remained constant over 5 years.
