Abstract

Background: We will report some experiences in managing challenging malignant cases on the abdominal wall, including a case of large, irradiated defect. All of those cases were consulted intraoperative immediately following tumor removal. The keystone random perforator flap was chosen among the option of solutions in large abdominal defect closure. This region has natural elasticity, which combines well with the multi-axial tissue recruitment of the flap Methods: Three cases of complicated abdominal defect were reconstructed using the keystone flaps supplied by non-identified (random) perforators. Results: All flaps survived without problem of vascularization, despite of its large defect, sequence of radiotherapy following reconstruction, infection, and with its margin unable to be freed from tumor. One out of three cases suffered from contaminated wound from stomal leakage, leading to dehiscence. Conclusion: The keystone flap is a useful and reliable random perforator-based flap, even in complex and challenging malignant cases of abdominal wall.

Abstract

Background: Closing defect on extremities can be challenging because of limited donor area in order to obtain similar quality, color, texture, and adequate size with the defect. The keystone flap has gained popularity as a tool for local reconstruction because of its simple design, short operative time, good aesthetic outcome, and cost-effective wound closure. The aim of this study is to introduce a method in choosing a keystone flap design based on simple metric measurement resulting in lower tension.. Methods: Four circular defects were created on 4 different regions of a fresh cadaver’s upper limbs. Diameters were 5 cm for upper arms and 3 cm for lower arms. Two options of keystone flaps designs were introduced. The keystone could be advanced in longitudinal manner or in transversal manner according to limb’s axis. We then calculated the percentage of the skin required to stretch, in order to close the defects. The less percentage of skin required to stretch between the two manners indicated the lower tension of the keystone flap. Results: Measurements in all of 4 regions of upper limbs showed that the percentage of skin stretch in closing the defects was lower in longitudinal advancement keystone flap compared to transversal advancement (19.88% versus 27.8% for upper arms and 15.71% versus 21.67% for lower arms) Conclusion: Simple metric measurements in choosing a keystone flap can be applied to defects on extremities. With less tension when raising the keystone flap, acceptable scar is expected and the occurrence of contracture and flap necrosis can be reduced.

Abstract

Background: The hematopoietic growth factor erythropoietin (EPO) attracts attention due to its all-tissue-protective pleiotropic properties. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of EPO in experimental burn wounds healing. Methods: Fifteen healthy Sprague-Dawley, strain of Rattus Novergicus weighing 300-350 grams, were prepared to achieve deep dermal burns. Animals were randomized to receive either low-dose EPO injection (600 IU/mL), high-dose EPO injection (3000 IU/mL) or nothing (control group). After 14 days of observations, quantitative and qualitative assessments of wound healing was determined. Results: The size of the wound area and re-epithelialization rate percentage was determined on Day-0, Day-5, Day-10, and Day-14. The average of raw surface areas measurement (p value: 0.012 in day-5; 0.009 in day-10 and 0.000 in day-14) and healing percentage of the lesions (p value: 0.011 in day-5; 0.016 in day-10 and 0.010 in day-14) were significantly best in the low-dose EPO grup compared to the control group and high-dose EPO grup. The histopathology evaluation revealed that the highest score for for re-epithelialization, granulation tissue and neo-angiogenesis were achieved by the low-dose EPO injection group than in both control and high-dose EPO injection groups. Conclusion: In this animal study using Sprague-Dawley rats, Recombinant Human EPO (rHuEPO) injection administration prompted the evidences of improved re-epithelialization and wound healing process of the skin caused by deep dermal burns. These findings may lead to a new therapeutic approach to improve the clinical outcomes for the management of burns wound healing.

Abstract

Background: This case report gives prominence to the risk of delayed, possibly life - threatening bleeding following mid-facial fractures. Methods: A 42-year-old male was involved in an accident during which he suffered from right zygomaticomaxillary complex fractures with massive bleeding. The hemoglobin level was decreased from 11 to 5 g/dL, suspected caused by rupture of internal maxillary artery. Incidence of massive bleeding due to zygomaticomaxillary complex fracture is quite rare. Patient also felt right visual loss due to retrobulbar hematoma compression. He was given nasal tampon and transfusion in referral hospital. The patient had fracture reconstruction (reduction and fixation), ligation of right facial artery and temporary ligation of external carotid artery with Ethiloop for 5 days. Nevertheless, the bleeding still occurred. The patient then underwent Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) and coiling procedure from radiologic intervention. Twenty days after last procedure, we ligated the right external carotid artery due to recurrence of bleeding. Results: There are many modalities and procedure for the therapy of massive bleeding on midface fracture, ranging from conservative, minimal invasive to operative surgery. Patient that has gone through DSA procedure can still bleed. After ligation of external carotid artery, no more bleeding occurred. Conclusion: Patient suffering from extensive midfacial fracture, the internal maxillary artery and its branches are at special risk of injury due to their close anatomical relationship to bony structures. Its bleeding is possibly life threatening. Tampon and nasal packing are non-essential initial treatment, but digital pressure procedure can be performed to stop the bleeding temporarily. Ligation of external carotid artery is the best choice of treatment for permanent outcome.
