Endoscopic En-Bloc Resection of Lipoma of the Tibialis Anterior Tendon.

Project description:Lipoma is benign soft-tissue tumor that consists entirely of mature fat and can occur in a superficial or deep location. Lipoma of the foot and ankle can even develop within a tendon sheath or joint. Classically, lipoma is resected via open approach, which may result in a lengthy disfiguring surgical scar. Endoscopic en-bloc tumor resection is a minimally invasive approach and can provide a whole block specimen for histologic examination. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of endoscopic en-bloc resection of lipoma of the tibialis anterior tendon.

Brachioradialis to flexor digitorum profundus tendon transfer to restore finger flexion.

Project description:IntroductionThe main deformity following an adult lower brachial plexus injury is the loss of finger flexion. Distal nerve transfers have been used to restore finger and thumb flexion followed by tendon transfers for intrinsic replacement for opening of the fingers. When patients present beyond 6 months, only tendon transfers are applicable. Since the brachioradialis (BR) is always spared in such injuries, it is the ideal muscle to provide finger flexion. Wrist extensor power may not be normal for the use of the radial wrist extensor to serve as donor. BR to FDP transfer provides reasonable flexion range and an acceptable hand function to permit activities of daily living, when associated with ancillary procedures like opponensplasty, PIPJ arthrodesis.Materials and methodsEleven patients underwent a BR to FDP tendon transfer between January 2013 and January 2017 of which eight patients came for follow-up.ResultsFour of the eight patients got a functionally useful hand to carry out activities of daily living with hook grip, span grasp, key pinch, chuck grip and pulp pinch. These patients also underwent simultaneous or secondary ancillary procedures. Four of the patients need secondary procedures to further improve functionality of the hand inspite of having a flexion range.ConclusionThe BR is an effective donor in providing adequate range and power of finger flexion in lower plexus injuries.

Endoscopically Assisted En Bloc Resection of Anterior Knee Lipoma.

Project description:Open resection of a large lipoma requires a large incision that may result in disfigurement from the scar. Endoscopic resection of the lipoma can have better cosmetic results. However, piecemeal removal of the lipoma has the disadvantage of fragmentation of the tumor before it can be determined whether it is benign or malignant. In this Technical Note, the technical details of endoscopically assisted en bloc resection of an anterior knee lipoma are described. This can provide a whole-block specimen for histologic examination.

Anatomy and histomorphology of the flexor digitorum profundus enthesis: functional implications for tissue engineering and surgery.

Project description:BackgroundThe enthesis possesses morphological adaptations across the soft-hard tissue junction which are not fully restored during surgical avulsion repairs. This loss of anatomical structure, highly related to function, contributes to poor clinical outcomes. Investigating the native macro- and micro-structure of a specific enthesis can provide functional and biomechanical insights to develop specialised, novel tissue-engineered therapeutic options and potentially improve current surgical treatments for avulsion injuries.MethodsThis study examines the anatomy and histomorphology of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) enthesis in 96 fresh-frozen human cadaveric fingers, quantitatively and qualitatively analyzing the shape, size, angle of tendon fibres and histological architecture, and explores differences in sex, finger and distance along the enthesis using linear mixed effects models.ResultsMacroscopically, results showed a consistent trapezoidal insertion shape of 29.29 ± 2.35 mm2 mean surface area, but with significant morphometric size differences influenced primarily by the smaller dimensions of the little finger. Microscopically, a fibrocartilaginous enthesis was apparent with a 30.05 ± 0.72o mean angle of inserting tendon fibres, although regional variation in fibrocartilage and the angle change of tendon fibres before insertion existed.ConclusionsThe implication of these findings on native and specific FDP enthesis function is discussed whilst providing recommendations for optimal FDP enthesis recreation for interfacial tissue engineers and hand surgeons. The study emphasizes the importance of region-specific knowledge whilst also describing methods applicable to assessing any soft tissue insertion.

Endoscopic En-Bloc Resection of Neurilemmoma of the Foot Dorsum.

Project description:Neurilemmoma (schwannoma) is a benign, slow-growing, encapsulated tumor originating from the Schwann cells of the peripheral nerve sheath. The purpose of this technical note is to describe the technique of endoscopic en-bloc resection of neurilemmoma of the foot dorsum. This has the advantage of better cosmetic result and less postoperative perineural fibrosis.
