ObjectiveTo introduce the surgical method and effectiveness of repairing skin and soft tissue defect in the palm or dorsum of the hand and forearm with epigastric bilobed flap. MethodsBetween October 2010 and December 2013, 4 male patients with skin and soft tissue defect in the palm or dorsum of the hand and forearm were treated, aged from 36 to 62 years. Of them, 3 cases had degloving injury caused by machines and 1 case had necrosis of fingers and skin after surgery of crush injury. The time from injury to hospitalization was from 3 hours to 15 days. Among the 4 cases, the size of palmar defect was 7 cm×4 cm to 16 cm×6 cm, and the size of dorsal defect was 10 cm×7 cm to 20 cm×10 cm. The epigastric bilobed flap was designed based on the axial vessel which was formed by inferior epigastric artery, superior epigastric artery, and intercostals arteries. The size of flap ranged from 12 cm×4 cm to 18 cm×6 cm in the vertical direction, 15 cm×8 cm to 22 cm×11 cm in the oblique direction. The donor site was directly closed. The pedicles were cut at 22 to 24 days after repairing operation. ResultsAll the flaps survived well with the wound healing by first intention. Four patients were followed up 3 months to 1 year and 2 months. The other flaps had good appearance and texture except 1 bulky flap. The flap sensation basically restored to S2-S3. The function of the hands recovered well. ConclusionSkin and soft tissue defect in the palm or dorsum of the hand and forearm can be repaired with the epigastric bilobed flap, because it has such advantages as big dermatomic area and adequate blood supply. Besides, the operation is practical, safe, and simple.
摘要:目的:探讨皮肤平滑肌肉瘤的临床病理特点和诊断要点及预后。方法:对2例皮肤平滑肌肉瘤组织病理学、免疫组化观察,并复习相关文献。结果: 例1为皮下平滑肌肉瘤,具有结节型的生长形态,瘤细胞丰富,异型性较大,核分裂活跃;例2为真皮平滑肌肉瘤,具有弥漫型的生长形态,瘤细胞较少,分化好,核分裂象不明显。免疫组化2例均表达SMA、MSA、Vim,1例灶性表达Desmin。2例随访迄今均无复发及转移。结论:皮肤平滑肌肉瘤少见,可分为真皮和皮下两种类型,两者具有不同的组织起源和预后特点,我们要注意区分,诊断除核分裂象计数外,尚需进行综合评估,对某些病例建议采用恶性潜能未定的平滑肌肉瘤的诊断,治疗首选外科手术切除。Abstract: Objective: To investigate the clinic pathological features diagnosis main point and prognosis of cutaneous leiomyosarcoma(CLMS).Methods:Histopathology,immunohistochemical stainings observation were analyzed in two cases of CLMS and the related literatures were reviewed. Results:Case 1 was subcutaneous leiomyosarcoma with tubercular growth pattern,rich tumor cell,big heterogeneous type,active mitotic;Case 2 was dermis leiomyosarcoma with diffuse growth pattern,few tumor cell,well differentiated,no more mitotic. Immunohistochemically,the two cases reacted positively with smooth muscle action、MSA and Vim,Case 1 also expressed desman partially. The two cases were revisited to date,no recurrences and metastases.Conclusion:Cutaneous leiomyosar coma is a rare tumor,subdivided into dermis and subcutaneous forms because of their different tissue origins and prognosis features. We must discriminate between them. Diagnosis need synthetic appraisal besides mitotic counts and “smooth muscle tumor of uncertain malignant potential” should be used for diagnosis of certain cases.Primary treatment for cutaneous leiomyosarcoma is surgical excision.
摘要:目的:调查呼和浩特市地区变应性疾病患者常见变应原的分布情况。方法:以720例变应性疾病的患者为研究对象,进行11种吸入性变应原皮肤点刺试验,测定致敏变应原。结果:720例变应性疾病患者中577例(80.1%)变应原测试有阳性反应。577例阳性病例中艾蒿阳性率最高,315例(54.6%),其次是螨虫254例(44.0%)。结论:艾蒿、螨虫是呼和浩特市地区变应性疾病的最常见变应原。Abstract: Objective: To study the distribution of common allergens among patients of allergic diseases in Hohhot area.Method: Seven hundred and twenty cases of allergic disease were selected and 11 items of inhaled allergen skin prick tests were carried out to determine the allergens.Results:Five hundred and seventyseven patients out of the 720 (801%) reacted positively to allergen tests.Three hundreds aned fifty cases (546%) were positive in the mugwort,254 cases (440%) were positive in the mites.Conclusion: Mugwort and mites are the most common allergens in Hohhot area.
ObjectiveTo explore the value of potaried technique with Trivex system in treatment for venous skin ulcer with deep venous thrombosis sequelae (DVTS) of lower limbs. MethodsTotal 166 patients with venous skin ulcer with DVTS of lower limbs were included in this study. The patients of operation group (94 patients involving 94 legs) were treated by using potaried technique with Trivex system. The patients of nonoperation group (72 patients involving 72 legs) were treated by using nonoperative method. The clinical indexes of skin infection rate, skin necrosis rate, shrinkage rate of wound area, skin depigmentation rate, ulcer healing rate and ulcer recurrence rate were used to assess the clinical curative effect between two groups on 5, 20, 120 and 360 d after operation or treatment, respectively. ResultsThere were no skin infection and skin necrosis in two groups on 5 d after operation or treatment. The rate of shrinkage of wound area and skin depigmentation of patients in operation group were significantly higher than those in nonoperation group on 20 d after operation or treatment 〔(95.8±2.138)% vs. (68.7±3.125)%,P=0.048; (87.6±1.263)% vs. (12.3±1.324)%, P=0.018〕. The rate of the ulcer healing of patients in operation group was significantly higher than that in nonoperation group on 120 d after operation or treatment (97.9%vs. 8.3%, P=0.014). The rate of the ulcer recurrence of patients in operation group was significantly lower than that in nonoperation group on 360 d after operation or treatment (5.3% vs. 97.2%, P=0.015). ConclusionThe potaried technique with Trivex system can be used as one of the surgical treatment methods for venous skin ulcer with DVTS of lower limbs.
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of cross finger flap pedicled with the dorsal branch of proper digital artery in repairing degloving injury of the fingertip. Methods Between January 2010 and June 2012, 13 cases of degloving injury of single fingertip were treated, including 9 males and 4 females with an average age of 33.6 years (range, 17-46 years). The defect locations were index finger in 5 cases, middle finger in 3 cases, ring finger in 3 cases, and little finger in 2 cases, including 4 cases of mechanical injury, 6 cases of twist injury, and 3 cases of crushing injury. The extent of skin avulsion was beyond the distal interphalangeal joint. The length of the avulsion was 1.0-2.1 cm (mean, 1.8 cm). Complicated injuries included phalangeal fracture in 2 cases. The time from injury to operation was 90-330 minutes (mean, 150 minutes). The wound was repaired with the cross finger flap pedicled with the dorsal branch of proper digital artery. The size of flaps ranged from 3.2 cm × 2.3 cm to 4.2 cm × 3.1 cm. After 3-4 weeks, the pedicle was cut. The donors were closed by skin graft. Results Tension blisters of the flap and partial necrosis of skin graft occurred in 3 cases and in 1 case respectively, which were cured after symptomatic treatment; the flap and skin graft survived, and primary healing was obtained in the other cases. Thirteen patients were followed up 6-10 months (mean, 7 months). The texture and appearance of all the flaps were satisfactory. At 6 months after operation, two-point discrimination ranged from 7 to 10 mm (mean, 8.1 mm). The total active movement of the fingers were excellent in 10 cases and good in 3 cases, and the excellent and good rate was 100%. Conclusion The treatment of degloving injury of fingertip with the cross finger flap pedicled with the dorsal branch of proper digital artery is recommendable for the advantages of reliable blood supply, simple operation, high survival rate of the flap, good function recovery of the finger, and satisfactory appearance.
