Flap Donor Site Size Reduction with Substratum Horizontal Mattress Suture

Closure of donor site of the flap has special problems. Reduction of this site will decrease the morbidity of operation. In this study, we present our experience in donor site size reduction. METHODS Between 2006 and 2008, 15 patients with skin and soft tissue defects underwent operation. In all patients, coverage of defect was performed with various flaps. Substratum horizontal mat-tress sut...

The influence of suture material on the strength of horizontal mattress suture configuration for meniscus repair.

PURPOSE Comparison of the mechanical characteristics of meniscal repair fixation using horizontal sutures and six different sutures under submaximal cyclic and load to failure test conditions may aid physicians in selecting a suture type. METHODS A 2-cm long anteroposterior vertical longitudinal incision was created in six groups of bovine medial menisci. Lesions were repaired using a No. 2 s...

Due to the length and the ever decreasing calibre of modern scopes, the transmission of torque is reduced, resulting in decreased rotation of the tip in response to movements of the hand. Consequently, the operator resorts to excessive movements in a ‘windscreen wiper’ motion. Using this technique improves the ability o...
