S-shaped Wound Closure Technique for Dumbbell-shaped Keloids
Dog-ear collection, Z-plasty, and W-plasty are often performed for excision of dumbbell-shaped keloids; however, these procedures require additional incisions or excision of normal skin. Thus, an S-shaped wound closure technique was performed. The keloid lesions were extralesionally excised above the deep fascia, and the wound edges were shifted in opposite directions along the major axis to fo...
متن کاملAcute Postpneumonectomy Empyema with Bronchopleural Fistula Treated with Vacuum-assisted Closure Device
Postpneumonectomy empyema is a life-threatening complication, which is often related with a bronchopleural fistula. After surgical repair of fistula, sterilization of infected pleural cavity is important and usually carried out by long-term cyclic irrigation. We report a case in which vacuum-assisted closure device was successfully applied to sterilize the pleural cavity and obliterate bronchop...
متن کاملUse of Amplatzer device for endobronchial closure of bronchopleural fistulas.
Postpneumonectomy bronchopleural fistulas (BPFs) remain difficult management problems associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Traditional therapies have included primary repair or delayed closure with the creation of an Eloesser cavity and tissue flap reinforcement. New bronchoscopic modalities have included the use of bioglues, stents, and coils. We describe another additional, l...
متن کاملClosure of a Recurrent Bronchopleural Fistula Using a Matrix Seeded With Patient-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells
: Management of recurrent bronchopleural fistula (BPF) after pneumonectomy remains a challenge. Although a variety of devices and techniques have been described, definitive management usually involves closure of the fistula tract through surgical intervention. Standard surgical approaches for BPF incur significant morbidity and mortality and are not reliably or uniformly successful. We describe...
متن کاملEndoscopic Closure of Bronchopleural Fistula using Glue Therapy: A Case Report
The occurrence of a bronchopleural fistula (BPF) continues to represent a challenging management problem, and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Bronchoscopic closure of BPF with instillation of n-butyl-cyanoacrylate glue is an effective, economical, minimally invasive and safe technique for managing BPFs. We present a case that was successfully treated with this method. *Correspo...
