Reconstruction of posterior trunk defects.

ABSTRACT: The posterior trunk roughly encompasses the upper back from the shoulders to the lumbar area above the iliac crests. Long-term outcomes in the treatment of defects of the spine and bony thorax have been proved superior if flaps were used. Many local muscle and fasciocutaneous flaps are available alternatives. A guideline, patterned according to arbitrary anatomic territories of the back, is suggested as a starting point for the selection of appropriate primary and secondary flap options. Depending on flap availability, the latissimus dorsi and trapezius muscles are the workhorse flaps for the upper back, whereas perforator flaps have become a useful alternative for the lumbar region in lieu of free flaps.

Robotic sympathetic trunk reconstruction for compensatory sweating after thoracic sympathectomy.

Project description:ObjectivesEndoscopic thoracic sympathectomy may be complicated by the onset of disabling compensatory sweating (CS). The objective of this case series is to report the 2-year outcomes after robotic sympathetic trunk reconstruction (STR) for the reversal of CS in patients who had undergone endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy.MethodsWe prospectively followed-up a total of 23 patients who had undergone robotic STR because of intolerable CS between October 2017 and January 2021. A visual analog scale ranging from 0 to 10 (with 10 indicating the highest degree) was used to assess the severity of CS at different anatomical locations, thermoregulatory alterations, and gustatory hyperhidrosis. Measurements were performed before STR and at 6-month and 2-year follow-up.ResultsThe mean age of the study participants was 43.3 ± 7.8 years, and 20 (87%) were men. The reversal procedure was performed after a mean of 19.6 ± 7.8 years from endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy. In all patients, nerve defects were successfully bridged using sural nerves (mean length, 9.7 cm on the right and 9.8 cm on the left). No cases of Horner syndrome were noted. At 6 postoperative months, the severity of CS decreased significantly at all body surface areas. The observed improvements were effectively maintained at 24 post-STR months. There was no evidence of either recurrent hyperhidrosis at the primary site or transition of CS to other anatomical locations. Similar improvements were evident for thermoregulatory alterations and gustatory hyperhidrosis.ConclusionsRobotic STR is safe and effective in reversing intolerable CS after endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy.

Posterior Glenohumeral Capsular Reconstruction With Modified McLaughlin for Chronic Locked Posterior Dislocation.

Project description:Posterior instability is relatively rare when compared with anterior instability but can comprise up to 40% of operatively treated instability cases. Posterior dislocations are much rarer and are classically due to trauma, seizure, or electric shock. Due to a lack of an obvious deformity and an internally rotated and adducted arm position, posterior shoulder dislocations often are missed on initial presentation. In the management of posterior dislocations, considerations need to be made in regard to bony and soft-tissue pathology. In the setting of soft-tissue deficiency, previous options included nonoperative management primarily consisting of bracing and activity modification as well as arthroplasty options that do not rely on the capsulolabral complex for stability. In this paper, we present a technique for treating a chronic posterior shoulder dislocation with an associated large reverse Hill-Sachs deformity. In this setting, a revision labral repair and capsulodesis is generally not possible due to insufficient capsulolabral tissues. Here, we present the technique for an arthroscopic posterior capsule reconstruction using an acellular dermal allograft as well as a McLaughlin procedure for the treatment of a reverse Hill-Sachs lesion.

Reconstruction of mandibular defects.

Project description:Defects requiring reconstruction in the mandible are commonly encountered and may result from resection of benign or malignant lesions, trauma, or osteoradionecrosis. Mandibular defects can be classified according to location and extent, as well as involvement of mucosa, skin, and tongue. Vascularized bone flaps, in general, provide the best functional and aesthetic outcome, with the fibula flap remaining the gold standard for mandible reconstruction. In this review, we discuss classification and approach to reconstruction of mandibular defects. We also elaborate upon four commonly used free osteocutaneous flaps, inclusive of fibula, iliac crest, scapula, and radial forearm. Finally, we discuss indications and use of osseointegrated implants as well as recent advances in mandibular reconstruction.

Anatomic Double-Bundle Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is known to be the main posterior stabilizer of the knee. Anatomic single-bundle PCL reconstruction, focusing on reconstruction of the larger anterolateral bundle, is the most commonly performed procedure. Because of the residual posterior and rotational tibial instability after the single-bundle procedure and the inability to restore the normal knee kinematics, an anatomic double-bundle PCL reconstruction has been proposed in an effort to re-create the native PCL footprint more closely and to restore normal knee kinematics. We detail our technique for an anatomic double-bundle PCL reconstruction using Achilles and anterior tibialis tendon allografts.

Arthroscopic Posterior Capsulolabral Reconstruction With Gracilis Allograft

Project description:Posterior shoulder instability is increasingly recognized and represents a complex continuum of pathology that can be challenging to diagnose and treat. Current surgical options involve posterior labral repair with or without capsular plication, as well as bony procedures, including glenoid bone grafting and glenoid osteotomy when indicated, often in the setting of revision. There is presently a dearth of surgical options to directly address the root cause of soft tissue failure, including a diminutive posterior labrum, chondrolabral retroversion, and thin or hyperelastic posterior capsule. This article presents a technique for arthroscopically augmenting the posterior capsulolabral complex in the setting of soft tissue insufficiency, laxity, or poor prognostic factors for failure. Secondarily, this technique provides a lower risk revision option for reconstruction in failed posterior instability without glenoid bone defect. Technique Video Video 1 This video depicts an arthroscopic technique for reconstructing the posterior labrum and augmenting the glenohumeral posterior capsule in the setting of recurrent instability. Patient is in beach chair position and right shoulder is viewed from the superior portal.

Transmedial All-inside TriLink Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries usually constitute part of a multiligament injury. Isolated PCL injuries account for only approximately 3% of all ligament injuries. No consensus on optimal surgical reconstruction exists. The PCL is a double-bundle structure that functions in an anisometric manner. Biomechanical studies have shown that re-creating the PCL femoral double-bundle configuration provides greater stability. We present a 3-socket approach for an anatomic "all-inside" double-bundle PCL reconstruction using our preferred option of a FiberTape (Arthrex, Naples, FL)-reinforced peroneus longus allograft fashioned to create a trifurcate graft: the TriLink technique. Cortical suspensory fixation devices are used, allowing differential tensioning of the anterolateral and posteromedial bundles. This enables more accurate replication of the native PCL and its biomechanical properties.

Double-bundle "all-inside" posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Project description:The procedure for repairing the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) has a steep learning curve and entails numerous difficult steps during surgery, because of the proximity of the neurovascular bundle, difficult passage of the graft through the posterior capsule, and risk of poor tibial fixation because of the long intramedullary trajectory of the graft. The use of instruments for retrograde reaming and a new device for adjustable cortical suspensory fixation allows for a safe, reproducible all-inside double-bundle PCL reconstruction by simplifying these difficult steps. We used anterior tibial allograft or hamstring autograft together with adjustable suspensory fixation devices that allow tensioning (after fixation) of the posterolateral bundle in extension and the anteromedial bundle in flexion.

Posterior Glenoid Reconstruction Using a Distal Tibial Allograft.

Project description:Posterior shoulder instability is increasingly recognized and diagnosed in young athletes. These patients often present with vague shoulder pain rather than the frank instability commonly seen with anterior instability. Three common causes of posterior shoulder instability are congenital retroversion, a single traumatic event, or repetitive microtrauma with erosive effects. The critical determination when deciding on the appropriate treatment of posterior shoulder instability is the presence and degree of glenoid bone loss. In patients without bone loss, arthroscopic procedures have a high success rate with a failure rate of less than 10% and an 89% return-to-sport rate. The determination of the critical amount of bone loss that would permit an arthroscopic procedure is controversial, but recent reports that attempt to quantify the critical bone loss value posteriorly have ranged from 13.5% to 20%. This Technical Note describes our preferred method of open surgical treatment of posterior shoulder instability with posterior glenoid bone loss using an intra-articular distal tibial allograft.
