Use of Local Perforator Flaps for Post Burn Reconstruction
BACKGROUND Mainstay of post-burn reconstruction is release and split skin grafting. Pedicle flaps are cumbersome to the patient, require multiple procedures and hospitalization. Free flaps are technically demanding and facilities are not universally available. Here we evaluated the local perforator flaps for post-burn reconstruction. METHODS We have used sixteen perforator propellar flaps fo...
متن کاملFetal MRI of thoraco-omphalopagus conjoined twins.
Abdullah H, et al. BMJ Case Rep 2017. doi:10.1136/bcr-2017-219793 Description Conjoined twins are very rare with incidence of 1 per 250 000 live births. Fetal MRI is an important adjunct to ultrasound particularly in evaluation of complex fetal anomalies and organ positions. 3 This case report illustrates our first experience in MRI fetal of conjoined twins with the current available sequences....
متن کاملSuccessful Surgical Separation of Thoraco-Omphalopagus Symmetrical Conjoined Twins in Iran: Two Case Reports
Conjoined twins are derived from the division of a single fertilized ovum; a phenomenon accompanied with multiple congenital anomalies. Such twins are identical, of the same sex, and more likely to be female. Most twins die during the embryonic period, and only 18% survive longer than 24 hours. There are complex anomalies in thoraco-omphalopagus twins that makes them unlikely to live long enoug...
متن کاملMultimodality Imaging in the Assessment of Thoraco-Omphalopagus Conjoined Twin: Lessons to Learn
Conjoined twins are rare and present a unique challenge to pediatric surgeons and radiologists. An imaging strategy to accurately define anatomic fusion, vascular anomalies, and other associated abnormalities is important for surgical planning and prognostic information. A conjoined female twin with a combined weight of 2.8 kg was born by emergency caeserean. Hence, a computed tomography scan o...
