{"title":"An Evaluation of the Source and Content of Kienböck's Disease Information on the Internet.","authors":"Brian M Katt, Ludovico Lucenti, Nailah F Mubin, Michael Nakashian, Daniel Fletcher, Daren Aita, Pedro K Beredjiklian","doi":"10.1055/s-0040-1701150","DOIUrl":"10.1055/s-0040-1701150","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p><b>Introduction</b>  The use of the internet for health-related information continues to increase. Because of its decentralized structure, information contained within the World Wide Web is not regulated. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the type and quality of information on the internet regarding Kienböck's disease. We hypothesized that the information available on the World Wide Web would be of good informational value. <b>Materials and Methods</b>  The search phrase \"Kienböck's disease\" was entered into the five most commonly used internet search engines. The top 49 nonsponsored Web sites identified by each search engine were collected. Each unique Web site was evaluated for authorship and content, and an informational score ranging from 0 to 100 points was assigned. Each site was reviewed by two fellowship-trained hand surgeons. <b>Results</b>  The informational mean score for the sites was 45.5 out of a maximum of 100 points. Thirty-one (63%) of the Web sites evaluated were authored by an academic institution or a physician. Twelve (24%) of the sites were commercial sites or sold commercial products. The remaining 6 Web sites (12%) were noninformational, provided unconventional information, or had lay authorship. The average informational score on the academic or physician authored Web sites was 54 out of 100 points, compared with 38 out of 100 for the remainder of the sites. This difference was statistically significant. <b>Conclusion</b>  While the majority of the Web sites evaluated were authored by academic institutions or physicians, the informational value contained within is of limited completeness. More than one quarter of the Web sites were commercial in nature. There remains significant room for improvement in the completeness of information available for common hand conditions in the internet.</p>","PeriodicalId":45368,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hand and Microsurgery","volume":"13 2","pages":"65-68"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2021-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/98/32/10-1055-s-0040-1701150.PMC8041493.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"38883999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reconstruction of these wounds presents a challenge, as the spine is dependent on these implants for stability and must be maintained throughout the wound dehiscence treatment protocol. We describe a method for extending the thoracodorsal pedicle with an arteriovenous loop to permit an increased excursion of the latissimus dorsi muscle in patients with exposed implants and present the results of this procedure. <b>Materials and Methods</b>  A retrospective review of patients treated with a latissimus free flap with saphenous vein pedicle extension for posterior spinal wounds from 2010 to 2020 were reviewed. Patient charts were reviewed for demographic information including comorbidities, previous spine operations, wound size and location, and postoperative complications including total flap loss, flap dehiscence, and need for secondary surgery. <b>Results</b>  Six patients were identified who underwent a total of eight extended pedicle free flaps. Mean age was 64.8 years with a mean follow-up of 12.3 months (range, 6-20 months). Four wounds were in the cervicothoracic region with two wounds in the cervical region. Mean number of previous spine surgeries was 3.5 (range, 2-4). Mean wound size was 189 cm ² with a mean vein graft length of 28 cm. Wound coverage was successful in five of six patients. Major complications occurred in five of six patients. Total flap loss occurred in two patients (33%) and both underwent a second extended latissimus flap from the contralateral side. Three patients developed postoperative flap dehiscence which resolved with regular dressing changes. <b>Conclusion</b>  Extended pedicle latissimus flaps are an effective treatment for posterior spine wounds but are associated with a high complication rate, secondary to medically complex patients with multiple prior surgeries. Careful patient selection is critical for success.</p>","PeriodicalId":45368,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Hand and Microsurgery","volume":"15 1","pages":"53-58"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2021-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9904979/pdf/10-1055-s-0041-1726620.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10684933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
