Accidental Inclusions Following Blast Injury in Esthetical Zones: Ablation by a Hydrosurgery System
In case of blast injuries, traumatic tattoos can result from accidental inclusions of intradermal pigmented particles. To avoid these tattoos, especially in esthetical areas like the head and neck region and the hands, the primary goal in our treatment is to remove all particles and foreign bodies. Superficial foreign bodies can easily be removed by brushes or dermabrasion. Deeper lesions are a...
متن کاملComparison of bulb syringe, pressurized pulsatile, and hydrosurgery debridement methods for removing bacteria from fracture implants.
Surgical-site infection is a common form of noscomial infection that can occur in fractures following internal fixation. Treatment of these infections has traditionally included preserving stable implants via debridement and antibiotic administration while the fracture is healing. Recent evidence indicated that this algorithm results in less-than-optimal rates of fracture union and infection er...
متن کاملThe VersaJet for Breast-Reduction Surgery: Operator Beware
BACKGROUND Modern techniques for breast-reduction surgery depend on large surface de-epithelialization. The current gold standard technique involves the use of a scalpel for sharp debridement and is a time-consuming process that is labor-intensive and often requires an assistant to stabilize the breast. Surgeons who perform breast-reduction surgery continue to search for instruments and innovat...

INTRODUCTION: Surgical site infection can occur after internal fixation of both open and closed fractures following internal fixation. Common methods of infection management include operative debridement and wound irrigation with a bulb syringe, or pressurized pulsatile lavage. The Versajet hydrosurgery tool appears to be an effective tool for debridement. Arecent study found that the Versajet ...
