According to EHS guidelines, mesh repair is recommended in case of concomitant diastasis recti (DR) and ventral hernia more than 1 cm in diameter. Since in this situation, the higher risk of hernia re...
The technique combines suturing repair of the hernia orifice and diastasis correction by suture, and includes an open step through periumbilical incision and an endoscopic step. The study is an observ...
The median diameter of the hernia orifice was 1.5 cm (0.8-3). The median inter-rectus distance was 60 mm (30-120) at rest and 38 mm (10-85) at leg raise at tape measurement and 43 mm (25-92) and 35 mm...
The technique provides effective repair of concomitant diastasis and ventral hernias up to 3 cm. Nevertheless, patients should be informed that the skin appearance can be flawed, because of the discre...
To introduce a novel technique for small-incision levator resection in ptosis surgery and evaluate its efficacy in a pilot study among patients affected by congenital or aponeurotic ptosis....
We prospectively enrolled congenital and aponeurotic ptosis patients if their levator function was not poor (≥5 mm) from June 2021 through October 2022. Surgical technique involved a 1-cm lid crease i...
Sixty-seven eyes (35 congenital and 32 aponeurotic) were included in the study. Mean age was 34±19 years (range, 5-79 years). Mean preoperative levator function and levator resection amount were 9.53 ...
The described technique shows non-inferior results to the previously described surgical methods and also it shows very good lid contour outcome and minimal lag. The findings suggest that the double ma...
While the pledget suture technique has been the standard for surgical aortic. valve replacement (AVR), discussion continues regarding the possibility of the nonpledget suture technique to produce supe...
We reviewed records of patients (N = 629) who underwent a surgical AVR procedure between January 2011 and July 2018 at a single institution. Indexed effective orifice area values and PPM incidence wer...
A total of 570 pledget and 59 figure-of-eight patients were compared for incidence of PPM. Patients who received AVR with the pledget suture technique had significantly lower echocardiographic measure...
The use of the figure-of-eight suture technique in AVR can reduce the incidence of moderate PPM. While the pledget suture is the standard technique in AVR, the figure-of-eight suture technique may off...
Mechanical forces have an important role in the initiation and progression of orthopedic surgical incisions complications. To avoid incision complications with the reduction of dermal tension, surgeon...
Finite element models of layered skin and two different suture techniques, running subcuticular suture and intradermal buried vertical mattress suture, ware constructed. The mechanical property differ...
Compared with traditional smooth sutures, the barbed sutures effectively increased the contact force for subepidermal layers, which led the less force variation between different layers. The results a...
In conclusion, our study indicated that running subcuticular suturing technique with absorbable barbed sutures for orthopedic surgical incisions closure results in more uniform stress distribution in ...
The medical treatment of dry eye disease usually follows a step-wise approach to achieve clinical improvement, ranging from non-surgical interventions with intensive lubrication to permanent surgical ...
Quadriceps tendon rupture (QTR) is a rare clinical condition often caused by indirect injury in healthy people. In addition, spontaneous and bilateral ruptures can occur in patients with predisposing ...
A 55-year-old man with renal failure secondary to glomerulonephritis suffered from spontaneous bilateral quadriceps tendon ruptures. Based on a knotless suture anchor and internal brace, a novel doubl...
This technique may be an effective method for repairing ruptured quadriceps tendons....
To introduce a new flange technique (called the Z.S. fixation technique) for 8 - 0 polypropylene suture in scleral fixation of a one-piece intraocular lens (IOL) and evaluate its effectiveness and saf...
All surgeries were performed using two strategies. First, the Z.S. fixation technique was used to fix 8 - 0 polypropylene sutures to the sclera and the two haptics of a one-piece IOL, respectively. Th...
The Z.S. fixation technique was employed in 16 eyes of 13 patients, with a follow-up duration of at least 6 months. Postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) was greatly improved in most...
The Z.S. fixation technique for 8 - 0 polypropylene suture in scleral fixation of one-piece IOL reduced surgical injuries and had ideal surgical effectiveness and safety....
To explore the effect of absorbable collagen thread and cosmetic suture technique on scar inhibition after emergency facial trauma in children, and to explore the application value of absorbable colla...
Children who received emergency treatment of facial trauma in plastic surgery department from January 2021 to January 2022 were analysed retrospectively, and were divided into absorbable collagen thre...
A total of 632 children with facial trauma were included in this study, including 458 patients with absorbable collagen thread and 174 patients with non-absorbable nylon thread. The SCAR score of the ...
The use of absorbable collagen thread and cosmetic suture technique to treat the wounds of children with facial emergency trauma, resulted in good wound healing, little scar expansion, low incidence o...
We aimed to compare the results of open surgery and double-port laparoscopic-assisted extracorporeal suturing repair for the treatment of Morgagni hernia (MH)....
Twenty-two patients with MH who were operated on in our clinic between January 2012 and January 2023 were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical techniq...
There were no statistically significant differences between the groups regarding sex, defect size, or costs. The mean age of the patients in the LS group (101 ± 68.3 months) was significantly higher t...
Double-port laparoscopic-assisted extracorporeal suturing repair is a reliable technique preferred over open surgical repair due to its shorter operative time and hospital stay, ease of application, b...
Wound closure technique is an operative factor that influences early post-operative complications after third molar surgery. This study investigates and compared the effectiveness of two closure techn...
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, split mouth controlled trial. Surgical sites were divided into two groups Control group received simple sutures in both alveolar crest incision and obl...
Thirty-five patients, who had bilateral impacted third molars of similar surgical difficulty, were recruited. Thirty-one successfully completed the study. Patients in the second intention group had si...
Healing by second intention of the oblique relaxing incision by partial surgical wound closure, in our study, were superior to the primary closure in reduction of post-operative pain, swelling and tri...
