Background: Tendon adhesions and capsular contractures following trauma to the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ) may significantly reduce hand function. Traditional, staged surgical management prioritizes restoration of PIPJ passive range of motion with joint release prior to restoration of active range of motion (AROM) with tenolysis. This is expensive and burdensome for patients. Read More

1 New York University Langone Orthopedic Hospital, New York City, USA.
Background: The general teaching is that increased number of vein repairs in digit replantation leads to improved venous outflow, resulting in lower need for iatrogenic bleeding, lower postoperative transfusion requirements, and better survival rates. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the traditional teaching that emphasizes the repair of multiple veins per arterial anastomosis results in superior survival rates.
Methods: A retrospective review of a single urban replant center's single-digit replants distal to the mid-metacarpal level in adult patients from 2007 to 2017 was performed. Read More

Background: Antithrombotic therapy following replantation remains controversial, and the survival of replanted digits is affected by various other factors, such as the state of vascular damage and the surgeon's level of skill. The present study's aim is to obtain clinical evidence for postoperative antithrombotic therapy in replantation, with antithrombotic therapy being the only variable.
Methods: This was a single-center retrospective study of patients who underwent replantation of a completely amputated digit by the same surgeon. Read More

Continuous monocropping often influences negatively the soil microbial community and leads to the occurrence of soil-borne diseases. In this study, a pre-cultivation soil management strategy, reductive soil disinfestation (RSD), involving amendment by the use of reed straw, bagasse, and rice straw, and creating anaerobic soil conditions, was used to regulate the microbial community in a soil infested by Fusarium wilt of lisianthus and make it suitable for plant cultivation. The results showed that RSD significantly decreased F. Read More

Replantation of a traumatic upper extremity amputation is a complex process accompanied by prolonged hospitalization, extended rehabilitation, and potential for graft failure secondary to poor perfusion to the distal extremity. The patient is faced with repeat visits to the operating room in addition to severe acute and chronic pain issues.

Even though the hand comprises only 1% of our body weight, about 30% of our central nervous systems (CNS) capacity is related to its control. The loss of a hand thus presents not only the loss of the most important tool allowing us to interact with our environment, but also leaves a dramatic sensory-motor deficit that challenges our CNS. Reconstruction of hand function is therefore not only an essential part of restoring body integrity and functional wholeness but also closes the loop of our neural circuits diminishing phantom sensation and neural pain.

Replantation using microvascular anastomosis is considered to be the optimal method in treating the amputated ear in terms of resulting color, texture, and shape. Only a few cases of ear replantation have been reported because it is anatomically difficult to identify suitable vessels for anastomosis. We successfully replanted the amputated helical rim of the ear using single arterial anastomosis. Read More

Background: Ischemic colitis after an open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair remains a serious complication with a nationally reported rate of 1% to 6% in elective cases and up to 60% after an aneurysmal rupture. To prevent this serious complication, inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) replantation is performed at the discretion of the surgeon based on his or her intraoperative findings, despite the lack of clear evidence to support this practice. The purpose of this study was to determine whether replantation of the IMA reduces the risk of ischemic colitis and improves the overall outcome of AAA repair. Read More

Hands are anatomically complex and have great social, physical and emotional importance. Hand or digit replantation following traumatic partial or complete amputation is a complex injury for nursing staff to understand and manage. The absence of clear guidance, combined with a lack of consensus in the literature gives rise to ambiguity and insufficient understanding of appropriate and effective management. Read More

Mineral trioxide aggregate, which comprises three major inorganic components, namely, tricalcium silicate (C3S), dicalcium silicate (C2S), and tricalcium aluminate (C3A), is promising regenerative cement for dentistry. While mineral trioxide aggregate has been successfully applied in retrograde filling, the exact role of each component in the mineral trioxide aggregate system is largely unexplored. In this study, we individually synthesized the three components, namely, C3S, C2A, and C3A, and then mixed them to achieve various compositions (a total of 14 compositions including those similar to mineral trioxide aggregate).

Background: Replantation is the gold standard procedure for traumatic amputation of fingertips. Reposition flap procedure is performed using nail-bone complex as a free graft and covering graft site with a flap to preserve original finger length, nail complex, and sensory functions of fingertip in pateints where microsurgical methods cannot be applied. In our study, we aimed to compare the long-term outcomes of patients with amputated fingertips who underwent replantation or reposition flap procedures. Read More

Objective: To investigate the effect of dental trauma educational intervention among undergraduate students of a Federal University in Brazil.
Materials And Methods: Students ( = 125) enrolled in the dentistry ( = 70), nursing ( = 33), and speech therapy ( = 22) courses were invited to attend a dental trauma lecture and also to answer a questionnaire about their confidence in managing crown fracture and tooth avulsion, before (T0) and immediately after (T1) the lecture. McNemar's test ( < 0. Read More
