RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Pocket hematoma is the most prevalent complication with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs), especially in patients who are undergoing oral anticoagulation and/or antiplatelet therapy. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of hypothermic compression bandaging versus conventional compression bandaging for the prevention of surgical wound hematoma of CIEDs in patients who are undergoing chronic anticoagulant drug use and/or antiplatelet therapy. METHODS: This was a single-center randomized prospective study. The intervention group received a hypothermic compression bandage, and the control group received a conventional compression bandage. The primary endpoint was the appearance of hematoma 10 days after the intervention. RESULTS: A total of 310 patients participated in the study. The mean age of the participants was 73.77 ± 10.68 years, and 74.8% were men. In the intervention group, 5.88% (n = 18) of patients developed ecchymosis, and 1.3% (n = 4) developed mild hematoma. In the control group, 5.88% (n = 18) of patients developed ecchymosis, and 2.9% (n = 9) developed mild hematoma. No patient in either group had a severe hematoma. No significant differences were observed between the two types of dressing in any of the three degrees of hematoma. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that compression bandaging with or without hypothermic therapy effectively prevents pocket hematoma of CIEDs in patients at high risk of bleeding.

RESUMO

Punch grafting is a technique that can improve and accelerate the healing of hard-to-heal wounds and reduce the associated pain. It is a simple and inexpensive procedure that can be performed in the examination room. It is a technique that uses small split-thickness skin grafts (STSG) to promote the growth of epithelial tissue. It has been described as being used mainly to treat ulcers of venous, arterial, hypertensive and diabetic aetiology. Punch grafting has also been used successfully in postoperative dermatological surgical wounds. This article describes and details the performance of the punch-graft technique, with special emphasis on aftercare and the role of nurses in the procedure. A clinical case is presented of a patient who underwent surgery for cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma and whose primary closure was rejected. It was decided to place the STSGs obtained from the anterior aspect of the patient's thigh after preparation of the recipient area to ensure an optimal wound bed. The patient's pain subsided within a few days, and the wound healed within weeks with weekly dressing changes.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To provide surgical references for selecting appropriate parotidectomy incisions, reviewing modified approaches, incision designs, and associated complications. METHODS: We have systematically searched 5 medical literature databases examining parotidectomy incision designs and postoperative complications from 2008 to 2021. RESULTS: There are a total of 9 novel incision designs: 1) posterior auricular hairline incision (PAHI); 2) combined preauricular and retroauricular incision (CPRI); 3) V-shaped incision (VI); 4) N-shaped incision (NI); 5) postaural incision (PI); 6) preauricular crutch incision (PCI); and 7) endaural incision (EI). Simultaneously, there are a total of 8 postoperative complications: 1) infection; 2) salivary fistula; 3) facial nerve palsy/paresis; 4) ear lobule numbness; 5) Frey syndrome; 6) facial deformity; 7) hematoma; and 8) tumor reoccurrence. CONCLUSIONS: Over the last decade, a surge in modified parotidectomy incisions has been witnessed in clinical practice. This expansion is attributed to rapid technical advancements and a deeper understanding of anatomy and histopathology. These modified approaches contribute significantly to improving cosmetic outcomes, minimizing associated complications, and enhancing patient satisfaction.

RESUMO

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) presents challenges in management due to its chronic nature and high risk of recurrence. Post-surgical wound care plays a crucial role in treatment, even if standardized methods for assessing and predicting healing times are lacking. The aim of the study is to introduce the Wound Area Severity Index (WASI) as a novel tool to guide clinicians in assessing postsurgical wound progression and predicting potential healing times. A team of wound healing experts assessed 93 post-surgical HS wounds resulting from wide excision and secondary intention healing. For each wound healing time, wound area, wound bed score (WBS), and WASI were evaluated. WASI includes four parameters: area, temperature, depth and wound Bed, each with four severity levels. The total WASI score ranges from 4 to 16. Spearman correlation and Kruskal-Wallis tests were employed for statistical analysis. WASI strongly correlated with wound healing time (rho: 0.813, p < 0.001). Higher WASI scores were associated with prolonged healing, while lower scores indicated almost healed wounds. The WASI score has proven to be more highly predictive of healing times when compared to the individual parameter of the Area (moderate positive correlation, r: 0.77) and the WBS (negative correlation, r: -0.72). A total WASI score of 4 corresponded to a median healing time of 7 days, while a score exceeding 9 suggested a median healing time of 56 days. WASI has proven to be a valuable tool for assessing and predicting healing times in post-surgical HS wounds. Its simplicity, cost-effectiveness, and ability to integrate multiple parameters make it a promising addition to wound care practice.

RESUMO

Xkin closure is a newly developed medical suture device for lacerations and surgical wounds that can reduce scarring, pain and the risk of infection compared with conventional sutures or staplers. A randomized controlled study was performed to compare the wound healing effects and complications of Xkin closure with stapler closure. Fifty patients who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer were randomly assigned. Only the wound above the navel, which was extended to take out the prostate was targeted. The wound was examined at 2, 6 and 12 weeks after surgery, and the modified Vancouver Scar Scale (mVSS), scar height and side effects were assessed with a 3D skin analyser. Forty-six patients (23 Xkin, 23 Stapler) were analysed. The mVSS scores, vascularity and pliability were significantly lower in the Xkin group compared with the stapler group at the 12-week follow-up. No significant differences in the maximum peak and depth of the scars were detected between the two groups using 3D photographs at 12 weeks. Xkin is an effective wound closure method for improving scar outcomes. This method is expected to be widely used for surgical wounds and lacerations caused by trauma in daily life.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Intravenous plasminogen replacement therapy for patients with plasminogen deficiency type 1 (hypoplasminogenemia) was recently approved for marketing in the US. In this case report, the authors describe a 33-year-old man with hypoplasminogenemia who developed nonhealing postsurgical wounds following trauma to his right hand despite receiving standard treatment for 4 months. The patient was enrolled in a compassionate-use protocol with intravenous plasminogen replacement therapy and experienced prompt resolution of surgical wounds. He was the first human patient to receive replacement therapy with plasminogen, human-tvmh in the US and first to demonstrate cutaneous wound healing in addition to resolution of ligneous lesions attributable to plasminogen deficiency type 1.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Surgical site infections can significantly impact postoperative recovery. Patient participation, which involves patients actively engaging in wound care, has been linked to improved healing and reduced wound complications. However, there is limited synthesis of the literature that explores the patient's role and participation in the context of surgical wound care. OBJECTIVE: To explore patients' perceptions of how they participate in surgical wound care, within 30 days post-operation. DESIGN: An integrative review guided by Whittemore and Knafl's methodology. This review was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42022363669). DATA SOURCES: Searches were conducted in Medline (Ovid), CINAHL (Complete), and EMBASE (Elsevier) databases in October 2023, supplemented by forward and backward citation searching. REVIEW METHODS: Based on a priori eligibility criteria, two authors independently screened articles to select relevant studies. The quality of the included research articles was critically appraised using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. A descriptive and thematic synthesis was used to synthesise the findings. RESULTS: Of the 4701 records screened for titles and abstracts, 25 studies using qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods designs were included. Three key themes were identified. In theme 1, 'I am healing: how my wound shapes me and my journey,' physical symptoms, psychological factors and previous experiences significantly influenced patients' engagement in wound care. Theme 2, 'Taking charge of my healing: my active engagement in wound care' described how patient participation in surgical wound care goes beyond clinical procedures and can include the use of technology and holistic self-care. Finally, theme 3, 'Navigating the path to recovery: How others shape my experience' showed that effective communication is crucial for promoting participation, yet issues like inadequate information can leave patients unprepared for wound management. CONCLUSIONS: This review highlights opportunities to personalise and prioritise a patient-oriented approach to surgical wound care. Clinicians and educators should adopt an individualised approach by tailoring patient participation based on patient factors (i.e. physical symptoms) and adopt patient-centred communication approaches. Researchers should focus on exploring approaches to self-care and technology, as these approaches may enhance patient participation in wound care.

RESUMO

Pyometra is a common disease in intact female canines characterized by an infection of the uterus. If it is not treated immediately, it could result in various complications such as fistulous tract development, sepsis, hemorrhage, uveitis, conjunctivitis, pyelonephritis, urinary tract infection, and myocarditis. In this case report, we highlight the benefits of the application of a topical ointment on wound healing after ovariohysterectomy in canine Pyometra. Following surgical intervention, the dog developed necrosis in her nipples and lost a portion of her mammary tissues. A large cyst formed and later ruptured, leaving the animal with a large wound. The vet applied a topical ointment, AlpaWash, to the affected area and prescribed antibiotic, analgesic, and antiinflammatory drugs to help manage the condition. The vet reported complete healing of the wounds within one month from the commencement of the treatment regimen.

RESUMO

The objective of this study was to investigate if delivering multiple doses of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) post-surgery in addition to pre-incisional administration significantly impacts the wound healing process in a rat model. Full-thickness skin incisions were carried out on the dorsum of 24 Sprague-Dawley rats in six locations. Fifteen minutes prior to the incision, half of the sites were treated with a control solution, with the wounds on the contralateral side treated with solutions containing 0.015%, 0.03% and 0.045% of NAC. In the case of the NAC treated group, further injections were given every 8 h for three days. On days 3, 7, 14 and 60 post-op, rats were sacrificed to gather material for the histological analysis, which included histomorphometry, collagen fiber organization analysis, immunohistochemistry and Abramov scale scoring. It was determined that scars treated with 0.015% NAC had significantly lower reepithelization than the control at day 60 post-op (p = 0.0018). Scars treated with 0.045% NAC had a significantly lower collagen fiber variance compared to 0.015% NAC at day 14 post-op (p = 0.02 and p = 0.04) and a lower mean scar width than the control at day 60 post-op (p = 0.0354 and p = 0.0224). No significant differences in the recruitment of immune cells and histological parameters were found. The results point to a limited efficacy of multiple NAC injections post-surgery in wound healing.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Surgical wounds that become infected are often debrided because clinicians believe that removal of this necrotic or infected tissue may expedite wound healing. There are numerous methods of debridement available, but no consensus on which one is most effective for surgical wounds. OBJECTIVES: To assess the effects of different methods of debridement on the rate of debridement and healing of surgical wounds. SEARCH METHODS: In October 2021, we searched the Cochrane Wounds Specialised Register, CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, and CINAHL. To identify additional studies, we searched clinical trials registries for ongoing and unpublished studies, and scanned reference lists of relevant included studies, reviews, meta-analyses, and health technology reports. There were no restrictions on language, date of publication, or study setting. SELECTION CRITERIA: We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that enrolled people with a surgical wound that required debridement, and reported time to complete wound debridement or time to wound healing, or both. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS: Two review authors independently performed study selection, risk of bias assessment using the RoB 1 tool, data extraction, and GRADE assessment of the certainty of evidence. MAIN RESULTS: In this fourth update, we identified one additional study for inclusion. The review now includes six studies, with 265 participants, aged three to 91 years. Five studies were published between 1979 and 1990 and one published in 2014. The studies were carried out in hospital settings in China, Denmark, Belgium, and the UK. Six studies provided six comparisons. Due to the heterogeneity of studies, it was not appropriate to conduct meta-analyses. Four studies evaluated the effectiveness of dextranomer beads/paste; however, each study used a different comparator (Eusol-soaked dressings, 10% aqueous polyvinylpyrrolidone, 0.1% chloramine-soaked packs, and silicone foam elastomer dressing). One study compared streptokinase/streptodornase with saline-soaked dressings, and one compared endoscopic surgical debridement with conventional 'open' surgical debridement. Five studies reported time to complete debridement (reported as time to a clean wound bed) and three reported time to complete healing. One study reported effect estimates (surgical debridement via endoscopy versus surgical debridement) for time to a clean wound bed and time to complete wound healing, and it was possible to calculate effect estimates for one other study (dextranomer paste versus silicone foam elastomer) for time to complete wound healing. For the other four studies that did not report effect estimates, it was not possible to calculate time to a clean wound bed or time to complete wound healing due to missing variance and participant exclusions. None of the included studies reported outcomes pertaining to proportion of wounds completely healed, rate of reduction in wound size, rate of infection, or quality of life. All studies had unclear or high risk of bias for at least one key domain. Dextranomer paste/beads (autolytic debridement) compared with four different comparators Four studies compared dextranomer paste or beads with Eusol-soaked gauze (20 participants), 10% aqueous polyvinylpyrrolidone (40 participants), 0.1% chloramine-soaked dressings (28 participants), or silicone foam elastomer (50 participants). There is very low-certainty evidence that there may be no clear difference in time to a clean wound bed between dextranomer beads and Eusol gauze. The study did not report adverse events. There is very low-certainty evidence that there may be no difference in time to a clean wound bed between dextranomer paste and 10% aqueous polyvinylpyrrolidone gauze. There was low-certainty evidence that there may be no difference in deaths and serious adverse events. There may be a difference in time until the wounds were clinically clean and time to complete wound healing between dextranomer paste and 0.1% chloramine favouring 0.1% chloramine, but we are very uncertain. There is low-certainty evidence that there may be no difference in deaths and serious adverse events. There is very low-certainty evidence that there may be no difference in time to complete healing between dextranomer beads and silicone foam elastomer. The study did not report adverse events. Streptokinase/streptodornase solution (enzymatic) compared with saline-soaked dressings One study (21 participants) compared enzymatic debridement with saline-soaked dressings. There is low-certainty evidence that there may be no difference in time to a clean wound bed or secondary suture between streptokinase/streptodornase and saline-soaked dressings. There is very low-certainty evidence that there may be no difference in deaths and serious adverse events. Surgical debridement via endoscopic ('keyhole') surgery compared with surgical debridement by 'open' surgery (the wound is opened using a scalpel) One study (106 participants) reported time to complete wound healing and time to a clean wound bed. There is low-certainty evidence that there may be a reduction in time to complete wound healing and very low-certainty evidence that there may be no difference in time to a clean wound bed with surgical debridement via endoscopy compared to 'open' surgical debridement. The study did not report adverse events. Overall, the evidence was low to very low-certainty for all outcomes. Five included studies were published before 1991 and investigated treatments that are no longer available. Worldwide production of dextranomer products has been discontinued, except for dextranomer paste, which is currently only available in South Africa. Furthermore, Eusol, used in one study as the comparator to dextranomer, is rarely used due to risk of harmful effects on healthy tissue and the enzymatic agent streptokinase/streptodornase is no longer available worldwide. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS: Evidence for the effects of different methods of debridement on complete wound debridement and healing of surgical wounds remains unclear. Adequately powered, methodologically robust RCTs evaluating contemporary debridement interventions for surgical wounds are needed to guide clinical decision-making.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Transverse uterine fundal incision (TUFI) is a beneficial procedure for mothers and babies at risk due to placenta previa-accreta, and has been implemented worldwide. However, the risk of uterine rupture during a subsequent pregnancy remains unclear. We therefore evaluated the TUFI wound scar to determine the approval criteria for pregnancy after this surgery. METHODS: Between April 2012 and August 2022, we performed TUFI on 150 women. Among 132 of the 150 women whose uteruses were preserved after TUFI, 84 women wished to conceive again. The wound healing status, scar thickness, and resumption of blood flow were evaluated in these women by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and sonohysterogram at 12 months postoperatively. Furthermore, TUFI scars were directly observed during the Cesarean sections in women who subsequently conceived. RESULTS: Twelve women were lost to follow-up and one conceived before the evaluation, therefore 71 cases were analyzed. MRI scans revealed that the "scar thickness", the thinnest part of the scar compared with the normal surrounding area, was ≥ 50% in all cases. The TUFI scars were enhanced in dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI except for four women. However, the scar thickness in these four patients was greater than 80%. Twenty-three of the 71 women conceived after TUFI and delivered live babies without notable problems until August 2022. Their MRI scans before pregnancy revealed scar thicknesses of 50-69% in two cases and ≥ 70% in the remaining 21 cases. And resumption of blood flow was confirmed in all patients except two cases whose scar thickness ≥ 90%. No evidence of scar healing failure was detected at subsequent Cesarean sections, but partial thinning was found in two patients whose scar thicknesses were 50-69%. In one woman who conceived seven months after TUFI and before the evaluation, uterine rupture occurred at 26 weeks of gestation. CONCLUSIONS: Certain criteria, including an appropriate suture method, delayed conception for at least 12 months, evaluation of the TUFI scar at 12 months postoperatively, and cautious postoperative management, must all be met in order to approve a post-TUFI pregnancy. Possible scar condition criteria for permitting a subsequent pregnancy could include the scar thickness being ≥ 70% of the surrounding area on MRI scans, at least partially resumed blood flow, and no abnormalities on the sonohysterogram. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Retrospectively registered.

RESUMO

We sought to evaluate the topographic risk factors for early myopic regression after small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE). A retrospective case‒control study was conducted, and individuals who underwent SMILE surgery were enrolled. Among them, 406 and 14 eyes were categorized into the nonregression and regression groups, respectively. The preoperative and postoperative parameters in the two groups were collected, including spherical refraction (SE), axial length (AXL) and topographic data. A generalized linear model was adopted to analyze the difference in each parameter between the two groups. After 6 months, UCVA decreased in the regression group, and SE increased in the regression group (both P < 0.05). The increase in the CCT at the thinnest point (P = 0.044), flat corneal curvature (P = 0.012) and TCRP (P = 0.001) were significantly greater in the regression group. Regarding the risk factors for myopic regression, preoperative SE, preoperative sphere power, preoperative AXL, preoperative flat corneal curvature, preoperative SA, early postoperative SE, early postoperative sphere power, early postoperative AXL and early postoperative CCT difference were significantly greater in the regression group (all P < 0.05). The SE, sphere power, AXL, preoperative flat corneal curvature, preoperative SA, and postoperative CCT difference correlate with early myopic regression after SMILE.

RESUMO

To analyse the risk factors affecting wound healing and infection after spinal meningioma resection surgery. The surgical incision healing of 137 patients who underwent spinal meningioma resection at our hospital from January 2021 to January 2024 was analysed. The data collected included physical examination findings, haematological and biochemical measurements, and various scales assessed upon admission and after surgery. These data were then analysed. The surgical wound healing, infection and postoperative complications were statistically analysed. Multiple logistic regression analysis method was used to conduct risk factor analysis on corresponding indicators; the odds ratio and p value of 95% confidence interval were calculated. Factors such as age and smoking history were significantly negatively correlated with wound healing after meningioma resection (odds ratio < 1.000, p < 0.05), while preoperative albumin and platelet count were significantly positively correlated with wound healing (odds ratio > 1.000, p < 0.05). Age, WHO Meningioma Grading, preoperative albumin and preoperative platelet were significantly negatively correlated with wound infection after meningioma resection (odds ratio < 1.000, p < 0.05). The history of virus infection and history of neurological disorders were significantly positively correlated with wound infection (odds ratio > 1.000, p < 0.05). The influence of each factor is different. Age, smoking history, WHO Meningioma Grading, preoperative albumin, preoperative platelets, history of virus infection and history of neurological disorders had the greatest influence on wound healing and infection after meningioma resection.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effects of curcumin supplementation on abdominal surgical wound healing in rats using clinical, histological, and hematological parameters. METHODS: Forty Wistar rats were randomly divided into two groups: the curcumin group, and the control group. The curcumin group received, in addition to water and standard feed, curcumin via gavage at the dose of 200 mg/kg for seven days preceding and seven days following surgery. The control group received only water and standard feed. Both groups underwent median laparotomy and left colotomy. On the eighth postoperative day, the groups were euthanized, and the left colon was resected for histological analysis. RESULTS: In the preoperative evaluation, there was a significant decrease in the mean C-reactive protein levels in the curcumin group (0.06) compared to the control group (0.112) (p = 0.0001). In the postoperative wound healing assessment, a significant decrease was observed in inflammatory infiltrate (p = 0.0006) and blood vessel count (p = 0.0002) in the curcumin group compared to the control group. CONCLUSIONS: Curcumin supplementation was able to significantly reduce inflammatory parameters in both pre-and post-operative phases of abdominal surgical wounds in rats.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND This retrospective study aimed to compare patient outcomes from standard total knee arthroplasty (TKA) vs navigation-guided arthroplasty using the Brainlab software-guided surgical system at Cangzhou Hospital of Integrated TCM-WM, Hebei, Hebei Province, China from January 2021 to July 2023. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 239 patients who underwent total knee arthroplasty in Cangzhou Hospital of Integrated TCM-WM, Hebei from January 2021 to July 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the inclusion criteria, 212 eligible patients were selected for analysis and divided into a Navigation Group (NG) (n=105) and a Traditional Group (TG) (n=107) according to surgical method used. Outcomes measured included duration of disease, operative time, intraoperative blood loss volume, postoperative length of hospital stay, and pain measured by the hospital for special surgery knee score (HSS), Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), and forgotten joint score (FJS). RESULTS The comparison of perioperative results between the 2 groups showed that the incision length in the NG was significantly longer than that in the TG (P<0.001, 95% Cl 2.59-3.35). At 3 months after surgery, the HSS score of the NG was statistically higher than that of the TG (P=0.002, 95% Cl 3.42-4.46); the WOMAC score of the NG was lower than that of the TG (P<0.001, 95% Cl -4.41-2.87); and the FJS score of the NG was significantly higher than that of the TG (P=0.003, 95% Cl 2.39-3.67). CONCLUSIONS Compared with conventional TKA, use of the Brainlab navigation system is associated with a longer incision, more accurate implantation position of the prosthesis, faster recovery of knee joint function, and helps patients to "forget" about their knee prosthesis in the short term.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Femoral neck is one of the high-risk areas for benign tumors and tumor-like lesions. Small range of lesions may also lead to pathological fracture, femoral head necrosis and other serious problems. PURPOSE: To investigate a new minimally invasive surgical approach to resect femoral head and neck lesions in children. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Retrospective study of 20 patients with femoral neck and femoral head lesions from February 2019 to March 2023 in our hospital. Among them, 14 were boys and 6 were girls, 17 were femoral neck lesions and 3 were femoral head lesions. The age of the patients ranged from 3.2 to 12.6 years, with a mean of 7.1 years. The patients were divided into group A and group B according to different surgical approaches; group A used the Smith-Peterson approach, Watson-Jones approach or surgical dislocation approach and group B used the DAA. Intra-operatively, incision length, operative time and blood loss were recorded in both groups. Group A consisted of 1 femoral head lesion and 8 femoral neck lesions, including 5 cases of bone cyst and 4 cases of eosinophilic granuloma. Group B consisted of 2 femoral head lesion and 9 femoral neck lesions. A total of 11 patients with different types of disease were included in group B, including bone cysts (3 cases), aneurysmal bone cysts (1 case), eosinophilic granulomas (6 cases), Kaposi's sarcoma (1 case). RESULTS: The two groups of patients differed in terms of incision length (P < 0.05), operative blood loss (P < 0.05) and operative time (P < 0.05). At 6-48 months post-operatively, there were no significant differences in function and all patients had good hip function. CONCLUSION: The direct anterior approach is effective for resection of paediatric femoral head and neck lesions. It provides clear exposure of the surgical site, minimal trauma and does not compromise the integrity of the anterior musculature. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To prove the effectiveness of the low-intensity laser radiation application in the treatment of wounds of different origin. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The clinical study involved 110 persons, divided into 55 subjects in both the study and control groups. The patients of the study group were exposed to the long-wave short-pulse neodymium laser immediately and within 35 days after interventions with a skin incision using it, in a way that wound treated with laser received low-level laser therapy. The control group patients' wounds were treated with standard methods by the means of topical drugs corresponding to the clinical manifestations of the wound process in each particular case. The study was carried out in the hospital of the department of maxillofacial and plastic surgery of the dental complex of the «Russian University of Medicine¼ from 2019 to 2022, and further conservative treatment was conducted in the department of dermatology and cosmetology of the University Hospital of the Medical Graduate School (Institute) of the RSSU. All wounds were classified into three groups for the convenience of systematization and formation of a generalized treatment protocol for postoperative surgical wounds. RESULTS: The objectivity and optimality of the chosen by us actions were confirmed in the conducted work. The formed scars were visually assessed on the POSAS scale at the end of the treatment by patients and 4 independent doctors, as well as each scar was visually assessed by four independent doctors and patients. At the end of the study we formed and proposed an algorithm for the treatment of surgical wounds of various origins. The parameters of the Aerolase Neo Light Pod neodymium laser for the treatment of patients with different types of skin wounds were clinically determined. Experimentally proven properties of the Aerolase Neo Light Pod neodymium laser on accelerating the healing process of surgical wounds through photobiomodulation mechanism support their regeneration with the formation of negligible normotrophic scars, as well as reduce the length of patients' treatment in surgical hospitals, as compared to patients receiving standard external drugs.

RESUMO

Objective: To explore the effectiveness of transverse double "8"-shaped tension band technique in the treatment of Lawrence zoneⅠfracture of the 5th metatarsal base. Methods: Between February 2019 and October 2021, 15 patients with Lawrence zoneⅠfracture of the 5th metatarsal base were treated with transverse double "8"-shaped tension band technique. There were 8 males and 7 females, with a median age of 40 years (range, 23-59 years). The fractures were caused by sprains. The time from injury to operation was 3-7 days (mean, 4.1 days). X-ray films were taken to observe the fracture healing and the anchor looseness and detachment. The foot function was evaluated by American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) score, and the eversion angle of the calcaneal talus joint. Results: The incisions healed by first intention after operation in 14 cases and the incision healed poorly in 1 case. All patients were followed up 8-12 months (median, 10 months). The imaging examination showed that all fractures healed well, with a healing time of 10-14 weeks (mean, 11.7 weeks). At last follow-up, AOFAS score was 82-100 (median, 98); 13 cases were excellent and 2 cases were good, with an excellent and good rate of 100%. VAS score was 0-3 (median, 1). Three cases had mild limited ankle joint range of motion, while 12 cases had normal range of motion. The eversion angle of the calcaneal talus joint was 25°-32° (median, 30°). Conclusion: The application of transverse double "8"-shaped tension band technique for Lawrence zone Ⅰ fracture of the 5th metatarsal base has advantages such as simple operation, avoidance of secondary operation, and reduction of foreign body sensation, with definite effectiveness.
