Abstract: Subcutaneous Injection of SVF in Combination with HBOT Improves Viability of Unfavorably Designed Cutaneous Flaps

چکیده
INTRODUCTION: Pedal fat pad atrophy is associated with pain, decreased tissue thickness, and elevated foot pressures. To date, no objective studies have investigated the utility of injecting fat into the forefoot to treat this costly and debilitating form of lipoatrophy. We hypothesize that pedal fat grafting can reduce pain, improve function, increase tissue thickness, and decrease pedal pressures.

Abstract: Fabrication of a Tissue-Engineered Pre-Vascularized Perfusable Skin Flap
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The potential healing benefits of HBOT preconditioning and stromal vascular fraction (SVF) delivery on flap survival were examined in a guinea pig model. Animal subjects were randomly assigned to one of four study groups: SVF/saline injections followed by HBOT, SVF/saline injections only, HBOT only, or neither HBOT nor injections. In order to enhance clinical relevance, a...
متن کاملImproved viability of random pattern skin flaps with the use of bone marrow mesenchymal-derived stem cells and chicken embryo extract
Objective(s): Covering tissue defects using skin flaps is a basic surgical strategy for plastic and reconstructive surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of chicken embryo extract (CEE) and bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) on random skin flap survival (RSF) in rats. Using chicken embryo extract can be an ideal environment for the growth and proliferation ...

متن کاملThe Effect of Enoxaparin and Clopidogrel on Survival of Random Skin Flap in Rat Animal Model
BACKGROUND Necrosis of skin flaps is considered as an important complication in reconstructive surgery. We conducted an experimental study to investigate the efficacy of low-molecular weight heparin, clopidogrel and their combination to improve the flap survival. METHODS Forty male, adult Sprague-Dawlay rats were divided randomly into 4 groups. Standard rectangular, distally based dorsal ran...
متن کاملEfficacy of combination of topical honey with intralesional injection of Gglucantime in the treatment of acute cutaneous Leishmaniasis
Background and aim: Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is an edemic disease widely spread in Iran. Although several treatments have been tried, none has been found as simple and effective. Honey has been used in the treatment of chronic ulcers and its anti-leishmanial effects have also been reported. So we assessed the efficacy of honey in acute CL.Materials and Methods: In a...
