[Transcutaneous pO2-measuring for the estimation of the vascularization behavior in omental vascularized and peduncled abdominal flaps. An experimental study in swine]. / Transkutane pO2-Messung zur Beurteilung des Vaskularisationsverhaltens am omental vaskularisierten und gestielten Abdominallappen. Eine experimentelle Studie am Schwein.

To evaluate the tissue vascularizing potency of omentum majus different types of pig skin flaps supplied by omentum were risen within an experimental surgical study. The reorientation process of blood flow from autochthonal epigastric to omental vessels was followed up by means of flap transcutaneous pO2 measurements. The fitness of tissue tpO2 method which results were found to be in good accordance with clinical experiences of flap surviving and healing will be discussed.

[Treatment possibilities in new and chronic Bennett's fracture]. / Behandlungsmöglichkeiten bei der frischen und veralteten Bennett'schen Fraktur.

Follow up of 36 patients with Bennett's fracture was observed. In 20 cases out of 22 fixed by Kirschner-wireing only a good result could be reached. The closed percutaneous nailing as an independent therapeutic method is explained and prefered for standard. The open reduction and osteosynthesis should be done in closed unreduceable and delayed cases.
