ABSTRACT
Introducción: Las técnicas microquirúrgicas son hoy enormemente aplicadas en el mundo en diferentes especialidades quirúrgicas. El centro, desde la década del 90, comenzó a impartir los entrenamientos de microcirugía vascular y nerviosa a especialistas y residentes nacionales y extranjeros respectivamente. Objetivo: Evaluar los resultados del entrenamiento de microcirugía que se imparte en el Centro de Cirugía Experimental de la Facultad de Medicina Victoria de Girón. Material y métodos: Se realizó un estudio longitudinal retrospectivo para evaluar el programa que se oferta. El entrenamiento está dividido en tres partes fundamentales: Parte teórica; prácticas en un simulador de látex; sutura termino-terminal de intestino delgado sobre la rata y, por último, el desarrollo de las técnicas básicas microquirúrgicas para un total de 90 horas. La matricula total en el período fue de 203 cursistas a quienes se les aplicó una encuesta al finalizar el entrenamiento; se midió además el tiempo de realización de la anastomosis y la permeabilidad vascular para calificarlos de Mal, Bien y Excelente al concluir. Resultados: En general fueron satisfactorios en 90 por ciento de los estudiantes sobre todo aquellos que poseen o estudian una especialidad quirúrgica, quienes presentaron mejores habilidades en un corto período que aquellos que no practicaban la cirugía reduciendo el tiempo de realización de las anastomosis y obteniendo una buena permeabilidad vascular. Conclusiones: El entrenamiento básico de microcirugía implementado constituye una útil herramienta para que los educandos desarrollen las habilidades necesarias para poder acometer con éxito las prácticas microquirúrgicas en la clínica quirúrgica(AU)
Introduction: Microsurgical techniques are currently applied in different surgical specialties worldwide. During the 90´s, our center began to implement vascular and nerve microsurgery trainings to specialists and national and foreign residents, respectively. Objective: To evaluate the results of microsurgery training that it is taught in the Center for Experimental Surgery at Victoria de Girón Institute of Basic and Pre-Clinical Sciences. Material and methods: A retrospective longitudinal study was carried out to evaluate the microsurgery training program. The training was divided into three main parts: theoretical lessons; practices upon the latex simulator; end-to-end anastomosis of small intestine on the rat; and finally, the development of basic microsurgical techniques on different vascular structures (abdominal aorta and vein) and the sciatic nerve of the rat, for a total of 90 hours of training. The total enrollment during the mentioned period was 203 students to whom a survey was applied at the end of the training; also, the time of realization of anastomosis and the vascular permeability were measured and evaluated as Bad, Good, and Excellent. Results: The results were satisfactory in general, but 90 percent of students that were carrying out their studies of a surgical specialty showed better skills in a shorter period than those that didn't practice surgery, demonstrating a less time-consuming exercise in the realization of vessel anastomosis and obtaining a good vascular permeability in this group. Conclusions: This teaching method constitutes a useful tool so that the students develop the necessary skills to carry out microsurgical practices in clinical surgery successfully(AU)

Objective@#To report the method and effect of in situ suturing technique for severe amputation of facial composite tissues.@*Methods@#We in situ sutured severely amputated composite tissues of facial region in 14 cases in emergency by vessels and nerves anastomosis from May 2004 to December 2017.@*Results@#All replanted composite tissues survived in 13 cases. Edge necrosis of auricle occurred in 1 case because of serious contusion and it was cured after dressing changed. The color and appearance of the replanted composite tissues were close to normal after 3 to 48 months′ follow-up.@*Conclusions@#In situ suturing technique in emergency is the ideal treatment for severe amputation of composite tissues of facial region.
ABSTRACT
Objective The clinical effect of the lateral femoral cutaneous artery flap for soft tissue defects of leg wounds. Methods From October 2007 to January 2016, VSD was firstly used to promote the growth of granulation tissue. When the growth of granulation tissue became satisfactory, flaps were designed based on the anatomical characteristics of the lateral femoral cutaneous artery. We repaired 20 cases of wound defects by cutting flaps that coincide with the recipient vessels. Result 20 cases were followed up for 6 to 24 months, 12 months on average. All flaps were survived and only one case had small area of necrosis flap which was healed by replacing medicines. In all cases, wounds were healed and flaps showed good color and good texture. The strength of quadriceps muscle was good and the extension of knee flexion was 0° to 150°. Conclusion To The lateral femoral cutaneous artery flap is used for soft tissue defects of refractory wounds on leg , flap donor sites are sutured directly, the treatment period is shorten and the method is safe and effective. The lateral femoral cutaneous artery flap is one of ideal choices for wound tissue defects.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo report the methods and clinical efficacy of bridging severed thumbs and fingers with foot joint compound flaps.Methods Ten patients with completely amputated thumbs and fingers with extensive defects in the proximal phalanx had bridged and repaired by using composite-free flap with joints from foot. Three of 4 cases of thumb amputation were repaired by using composite flaps of the second metatarsophalangeal and proximal interphalangeal joints in foot,and the other was used composite flap of the second metatarsophalangeal joints in foot.Donor sites underwent the second metatarsals distal osteotomy associated with free skin graft. And 6 cases with absent fingers by using composite-free flaps of the proximal interphalangeal joint to repair. The donor site in foot underwent metatarsophalangeal and toe joints osteotomy.ResultsAll flaps and replanted thumbs and fingers survived. Hand wounds recovered by primary repair.Donor site in foot all healed by primary repair except for 1 case,which healed after several dressing changes.All 10 cases were followed-up from 6 to 28 months,averaged of 9 months.The metacarpophalangeal joint of 4 replanted thumbs extension between -10° and 0°,and flexion between 20° and 50°.The function of fullfield digital mammography recovered well in 3 replanted thumbs, as well as the function of thumb-middle in the other. Three of them could completely 2-5 fingers tapping,one case could complete middle finger tapping,four cases could complete radial abduction.The proximal interphalangeal joints of 6 replanted fingers extension between -10° and 0°,and flexion between 30° and 90°,averaged of 50°.Sensory recovery of 1 case reached S4,two cases reached S3+,five cases reached S3,and 2 cases of S2.All replanted bones and joints healed after transplantations(bone healing time was 6 to 16 weeks), with no occurrence of re-fracture nor nonunion. Walking function was not significantly affected. According to the evaluation criteria of replanted severed fingers by Chinese Medical Association,one was excellent,eight were good,and 1 was poor.The excellent and good rate was 90％. Conclusion Repairing amputated thumbs and fingers with foot joint compound flaps could not only maximize the recovery of replanted fingers shape,but also get some function,which to meet everyday needs of patients.
