摘要:

Many various complications have been reported with tissue expansion since it was popularized by Radovan. As expected with any foreign body implantation, the most frequent complication is infection. Rupture of the expander is relatively rare even in the face of overexpansion or blunt external trauma.Complications from tissue expansion of the scalp are similar to those encountered with the placement of expanders elsewhere in the body. We had a case recently involving rupture of an expander placed in the scalp of an 18-month-old child as a result of erosion of the outer table with bone spur formation. This was a local reaction to the pressure exerted by the expander. We present the following case report to document another potential complication with tissue expansion of the scalp.

摘要:

Temporoparietal fascia free flap is an excellent source for resurfacing soft tissue defects of the hand and fingers. Because of the reliable anatomical bifurcation of the superficial temporal vessels, this flap can be very useful in simultaneous reconstruction of more than one digit without having to create a temporary syndactyly.

摘要:

A case of left facial elephantiasis neurofibromatosa was treated with near-total excision and skin graft. Results were favorable. Repositioning of canthal ligaments, preserving part of relatively normal masseter muscle and primary nasal reconstruction with forehead flap were performed. The skin graft over the myxomatous muscle was successful. Troublesome bleeding was avoided or controlled by incising the normal skin, subperiosteal dissection, hypotensive anesthesia, and chromic catgut suture ligature.

摘要:

To our knowledge, this is the first report of a method of stretching the interdigital skin of syndactyly by means of a pincer. The pincer, a U-shaped metal spring plate with a sponge cushion, is applied before the operation for about two months; pressure is placed against both sides of the interdigital fusion to expand the skin and to develop hollows. Use of the pincer facilitates a syndactyly operation by allowing defect coverage with a local flap only. Four patients successfully treated by this method are reported. The method has the great advantage of not requiring skin grafts, which often have unfavorable results both functionally and cosmetically.
