In order to resolve the shortcomings of traditional pedicled abdominal skin flap, the pedicled abdominal subcorium vascular-net flap was reformed and applied clinically. Twenty-eight cases with scar on hand or wrist were treated, including 20 males and 8 females. The age was ranged from 18 to 35 years old. The key point in the design was rotating 45 degrees of the flap from the primary site toward the pedicle. The ratio of the length to width of the flap was 1-1.8 : 1, and the wound of the donor site was covered by direct suture. Five to seven days later, all the flaps were divided and survived. The advantages of this flap were as follows: skin-grafting on the donor site was not necessary; the time needed for cutting the pedicle was shortened, and the flap is thinner than the traditional flap.
Objective To explore the mechanism of full-thickness burn wound healing with autoskin grafting in fault hypodermis wound of granulation excision and to evaluate its effect.Methods By the techniques of clinical observation, histopathology, immunohistochemistry,TEM and FCM,we observed changes of the activity andstructure of grafted skin and the granulation tissue,collagnous fiber,microvessels,the ultramicrostructure of fibroblasts and the expression of basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) in the base of autoskin grafting in fault hypodermis wound in burned adult minipigs(Group A), and compared with traditional method of autoskingrafting on the basilar fibrous tissue wound of scraped partly granulation being(Group B) and control group (Group C, without treatment except de-fur).Results The grafted skin survived after 3 days of operation, and it had less injury and higher proliferative index(PI) in group A than in group B. The hyperplasiaof granulation tissue and vascular endothelial and the expression of bFGF were more evident in group A. After 5 days, the proliferation of endothelial cells and granulation and the protein synthesis of fibroblasts were more active in groupA, and at this moment, fresh collagen appeared and proliferated more actively in group B. After 7-14 days, epidermic structure and dermic microvascular density became normal gradually, the granulation on grafting base matured and transformed into fibrous connective tissue in group A. The same change deferred about 2 days in group B. After 21 days, the above pathologic change in group A was less than that in group B. After 3060 days of operation, Group A achieved much less contraction and transfiguration than Group B, and the grafted skin was tender and movable. Conclusion Autoskin grafting in fault hypodermis wound of granulation excision has a better effect than traditional operation.
ObjectiveTo explore the efficacy of thrombin in treatment of subcutaneous effusion after radical resection of breast cancer.
MethodsOne hundred and ninety patients underwent radical resection of breast cancer from July 2008 to July 2013 in this hospital were divided into postoperative observation group and postoperative control group according to the operation time. A daily injection of thrombin by drainage tube was performed on day 3 after operation in the postoperative observation group, the negative pressure drainage only was performed in the postoperative control group. The drainage volume in 72 h after operation, time of extubation, cases of subcutaneous effusion were counted after operation. Then the patients with subcutaneous effusion were divided into subcutaneous effusion observation group and subcutaneous effusion control group according to the time of extubation, the thrombin was injected into cavity after pumping subcutaneous effusion with pressing and dressing in the subcutaneous effusion observation group and only pressed after pumping subcutaneous effusion in the subcutaneous effusion control group, respectively. The healing time of subcutaneous effusion was counted in these two groups.
ResultsCompared with the postoperative control group, the drainage volume in 72 h after operation was less(P < 0.001), the time of extubation was earlier(P < 0.001), the rate of subcutaneous effusion was lower(P < 0.05), color of drainage fluid on day 2 after mastectomy was lighter(P < 0.001)in the postoperative observation group. Compared with subcutaneous effusion control group, when subcutaneous effusion was 20-50 mL or > 50 mL, the healing time of subcutaneous effusion was significantly shorter in the subcutaneous effusion observation group(P < 0.05).
ConclusionsInjecting thrombin by drainage tube after operation can reduce the drainage volume, decrease the rate of subcutaneous liquid, and shorten the time of extubation. Injecting thrombin into cavity of subcutaneous liquid can shorten the healing time of patients with middle and large subcutaneous effusions after radical resection of breast cancer.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of axillary single-site laparoscopic subcutaneous mastectomy in treatment of gynecomastia (GYN) and the assessment method of glandular mass before operation. Methods A clinical data of 65 GYN patients admitted between August 2023 and February 2024 and matched the selection criteria was retrospectively analyzed. The patients were (30.8±7.9) years old, with a body mass index (BMI) of 27.3 (24.9, 29.8) kg/m2. According to Simon’s grading criteria, the GYN was classified as gade Ⅰ in 8 cases, grade Ⅱa in 32 cases, grade Ⅱb in 21 cases, and grade Ⅲ in 4 cases. All patients underwent bilateral axillary single-site laparoscopic subcutaneous mastectomy. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative bilateral extubation time, total length of hospital stay, and the occurrence of related complications were recorded. The cosmetic outcome score was assessed by questionnaire at 2 months after operation. Preoperative BMI, lying/standing sternal notch to nipple (SN-N), and lying/standing nipple to nipple (N-N) were measured. The differences in SN-N between standing and lying positions (ΔSN-N) and in N-N between lying and standing positions (ΔN-N) were calculated. The intraoperative resected glandular mass was recorded. The glandular mass-related indicators (BMI, ΔSN-N, ΔN-N) were compared between Simon grades. Spearman’s correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis of glandular mass with BMI and ΔSN-N, ΔN-N and Simon grading (grades Ⅰ, Ⅱa, Ⅱb, and Ⅲ were assigned values of 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively) of the corresponding side. ResultsAll operations were successfully completed with the operation time of 75.0 (60.0, 90.0) minutes, the intraoperative blood loss of 12.0 (11.0, 13.0) mL, and the bilateral extubation time of 1.5 (1.5, 1.5) days after operation. The total length of hospital stay was 3.0 (3.0, 3.0) days. Three cases of subcutaneous hematoma in the chest wall and 1 case of nipple areola numbness and discomfort occurred after operation, while the rest of the patients had no complication, such as postoperative haemorrhage, effusion, infection, and nipple areola necrosis. The subjective cosmetic scores were all 15 at 2 months after operation, which was very satisfactory. The differences in ΔSN-N of right side between Simon grade Ⅰ and grades Ⅱa, Ⅱb, Ⅲ and in ΔSN-N of left side between Simon grade Ⅰ and grades Ⅱb, Ⅲ were significant (P<0.05), while the differences between the remaining grades were not significant (P>0.05). The differences in ΔN-N between Simon grade Ⅱa and gradeⅡb and in BMI between Simon grade Ⅱb and grade Ⅲ were not significant (P>0.05), while the differences between the remaining grades were significant (P<0.05). The glandular masses of left and right breasts in 65 patients were 69.0 (52.1, 104.0) g and 73.0 (56.0, 94.0) g, respectively; and the difference between left and right breasts was not significant (Z=?0.622, P=0.534). The data of the right breast was selected for correlation analysis. Correlation analysis showed that the right glandular mass was positive correlated with BMI and Simon grading, ΔSN-N, and ΔN-N (P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that Simon grading had a positive predictive effect on glandular mass, and the regression equation was as follows: right glandular mass=5.541+32.115×Simon grading (R2=0.354, P<0.001). ConclusionAxillary single-site laparoscopic subcutaneous mastectomy is an ideal surgical procedure for the treatment of GYN. BMI and Simon grading are closely related to GYN glandular mass, and have certain reference value for preoperative glandular mass assessment.

Methods A total of 120 patients having undergone transabdominal hysterectomy under epidural anesthesia between January and June 2009 accepted PCSA or PCEA after operation. We evaluated the state of analgesia and sedation at the 4th, 8th, 12th, 24th and 48th hour after operation. We also looked into the respiration, blood circulation, nausea, vomiting and other abnormal events of the patients during the first 48 hours after operation. At the same time, we recorded the first time of anal exsufflation after operation and the degree of patients’ satisfaction. Results The analgesic effective rate was higher than 90% in both groups. There were no significant differences in analgesia and sedation scores at above-mentioned points after operation, incidence of nausea and vomiting, first time of anal exsufflation or analgesic effective rate between the two groups. Conclusion PCSA with fentanyl can be as effective in relieving postoperative pain as PCEA with fentanyl without obvious adverse effect in the gastrointestinal function. Therefore, PCSA is a safe and effective method to alleviate postoperative pain.
From Mar. 1987 to Nov. 1989, 24 cases with a wound at the hand and lorearm were treated successfully by the subcutaneous pedicle v-shaped flap designed by the authors. Among the wounds, 5 were repaired with a double pedicle flap, 17 with a single pedicle flap, 2 with a partial subcutaneous pedicle flap. As to the location, 8 were at the anterior brachial region, 1 at the posterior antebrachial region, 2 at the palmar aspect of the palm, 1 at the dorsal aspect of the palmand 12 at the finger. Ten of them werre followed from 2 months to 2 years, and the appearance was satisfactory. it was considered that the subcutaneous pedicle V-shaped flap possese the following advantages: (1)the advancing distance was large. (2)the disturbance to blood supply and sensation of the flap was less, and (3) the appearance was very good. The main points of the operation were discussed and the operative technique was introduced as well.
The application of subdermal vascular network skin flap (SVN flap) with axial-pattern of artery for skin and soft tissues defects on the extremities of 39 cases was reported. The tyes of flaps included:SVN direct cutaneous artery skin flap in 23 eases, SVN island skin flap in 13 eases, and vaseularized SVN skin flap in 3 cases, All flaps were survived except in one ease of vaseularized SVN skin flap failed. The patients were followed for 6 months to 1 year after operation, the grafted areas showed good looking, no hypertrophy of scar tissue, and normal texture. This type of flap had the advantages of axial-pattern skin flap and that of the SVN skin flap as well, and could be widely applied in the clinical fields.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical efficacy of thin flap with subdermal vascular network of the neck-pectoral region on repair of the contracture of the burn scar on the neck. METHODS From March 1990 to May 1998, 21 cases of deformity of neck due to burn scar were repaired with the thin flap ranging from 8 cm x 5 cm to 14 cm x 8 cm, and all of the cases were followed up for 6 to 42 months. RESULTS Except partial necrosis of the distal end of the flap in 1 case, the flaps in the other 20 cases all survived and presented a satisfactory appearance and function. CONCLUSION The thin flap with subdermal vascular network in neck-pectoral region may provide a large area of flap, and could be easily transferred. It’s an ideal flap for the repair of skin defect on the neck.
