INTRODUCTION: Radial nerve palsy after humeral shaft fractures is often associated with formation of a neuroma in continuity. The current standard of treatment is neuroma resection and nerve grafting with contentious results. Anterior transposition of the radial nerve may reduce the length of its path, allowing reconstruction by primary suture. The aim of this study was to determine the maximum length of radial nerve defect that can be treated by the anterior transposition to allow primary suture to be performed. METHODS: We use 10 arms from five fresh cadavers. The radial nerve was dissected in the lateral inter-muscular septum and along the anterior aspect of the forearm. The radial nerve was transected at the level of the spiral groove and both stumps were than transposed anterior to the medial inter-muscular septum. The length of tension-free overlap that could be achieved was measured. RESULTS: The average length of the overlap at zero degrees of elbow flexion was 10.00 ± 1.84 mm. Theoretically, this will allow a defect of 20 ± 3.69 mm SD to be treated by primary suture. CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that anterior transposition can be used for radial nerve defects up to 2 cm; however, dissection of both stumps proved to be challenging.

While fasciotomy is the only urgent treatment option for compartment syndrome, the resulting open wound leaves room for complications. Closure of the wound can be done by different techniques, including split-thickness skin grafts, negative pressure therapy, an absorbable barbed suture system and a cable ties system. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate how a combined application of these methods can reduce their respective individual disadvantages. Our combined method was tried in two patients, one with an open tibial fracture and the other who underwent ulnar nerve reparation. Both patients started exhibiting signs of compartment syndrome within 3 hrs after surgery. Firstly, absorbable barbed suture systems were positioned with the running intradermal technique. Following this the cable ties were inserted and the limb in question was placed in an elevated position. Complete closure of the patient’s wounds was achieved within 2 weeks without complications. This result is a testament to the added benefit of a combination of these methods in comparison with the results they produce individually.

Úvod: Vředová choroba gastroduodena patří mezi nejčastěji se vyskytující onemocnění proximální části zažívacího traktu. Její komplikace jsou relativně časté, nejvážnější je perforace peptického vředu s roční incidencí asi 10 případů na 100 tisíc obyvatel a mortalitou 10–40 %. Jedinou možností léčby je chirurgická sutura perforace, kterou lze provést laparoskopickým přístupem nebo otevřeně. Cílem studie bylo porovnat krátkodobé výsledky laparoskopické a otevřené sutury akutní perforace peptického vředu a zhodnotit přesnost skórovacího systému dle Boeya ke stanovení rizikovosti pacientů v české populaci. Metody: Retrospektivní studie provedená na chirurgické klinice Fakultní nemocnice Ostrava. Pacienti podstoupili akutní laparoskopickou nebo otevřenou suturu perforovaného peptického vředu v letech 2017–2021. Výsledky: Do studie bylo zařazeno 60 pacientů. Laparoskopicky byl výkon proveden u 43,3 % pacientů, laparotomicky u 56,7 %. Průměrná pooperační morbidita byla 70,0 %. Mírné komplikace byly zaznamenány u 23,3 % pacientů, závažné u 16,7 % pacientů. Pacienti po laparoskopické sutuře vykazovali vyšší výskyt mírných i závažných komplikací (26,9 % vs. 20,6 % a 19,2 % vs. 14,7 %), ale i vyšší výskyt nekomplikovaného pooperačního průběhu. Celková pooperační mortalita byla 30,0 % (laparoskopie 15,4 %, laparotomie 41,2 %). Výsledky studie potvrdily odhadované vstupní riziko úmrtí stanovené dle Boeyova skóre. Závěr: Laparoskopická sutura vředu může být metodou volby u pacientů bez nebo s nízkými rizikovými faktory. Laparoskopicky operovaní pacienti vykazovali vyšší výskyt lehkých i závažných komplikací. Vyšší mortalita pacientů po otevřené sutuře souvisí s jejich horším počátečním klinickým stavem. Předoperační stanovení rizika mortality pomoci Boeyova skóre je přesné a ke zvolení operačního přístupu výhodné.
Introduction: Peptic ulcer is one of the most common diseases of the proximal gastrointestinal tract. Its complications are relatively common, the most serious one being peptic ulcer perforation with the incidence of about 10 cases per 100,000 population per year and the mortality rate of 10–40%. Surgical suture via laparoscopy or laparotomy is the only treatment option. The aim of the study was to compare the short-term results of laparoscopic and open repair of acute peptic ulcer perforation and evaluate the accuracy of the Boey scoring system in the Czech population. Methods: Retrospective study conducted at the surgical department of the University Hospital Ostrava. The patients underwent laparoscopic or open repair of perforated peptic ulcer in 2017–2021. Results: The study included 60 patients; laparoscopic repair was performed in 43.3% of the patients, and open repair in 56.7%. Postoperative morbidity was 70.0%, mild complications were reported in 23.3% of the patients, and severe complications in 16.7%. Patients undergoing the laparoscopic repair showed a higher incidence of mild as well as severe complications (26.9% vs 20.6% and 19.2% vs 14.7%) but also a higher incidence of an uncomplicated postoperative course. Overall postoperative mortality was 30.0% (laparoscopy 15.4%, laparotomy 41.2%). The study results confirmed the estimated baseline risk of mortality based on the Boey score. Conclusion: Laparoscopic repair may be the procedure of choice for patients with no or low risk factors. Patients undergoing laparoscopy showed a higher incidence of mild and severe complications. The higher mortality of patients after open repair is related to their worse initial clinical condition. Preoperative determination of mortality risk using the Boey score is accurate and appropriate in terms of choosing the surgical approach.

BACKGROUND: Aortic valve stenosis is the most frequent cardiac valve pathology in the western world. Surgical aortic valve replacement is the gold standard for the treatment of significant degenerative aortic valve diseases. CASE PRESENTATION: This case report highlights an unexpected abnormal iatrogenic shortening of the aorto-mitral continuity and its deformity, during traditional AVR using sutured stented aortic prosthesis as the first choice, which caused significant mitral valve regurgitation. The suture-less prosthesis was a rescue choice to restore the geometry and eliminate the deformation of the aorto-mitral continuity. CONCLUSIONS: Aortic valve replacement using suture-less prosthesis could be a valuable optional choice for lowering the risk of deformation of the aortic annulus and aorto-mitral continuity. It might provide better outcomes in combined procedures.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Acromioclavicular (AC) joint dislocation and its surgical treatment still raises a number of questions that remain to be answered. In some types of dislocations, Rockwood type III in particular, the indication for surgical treatment as such is relative. There are numerous techniques and implants available for the reconstruction of AC joint. In our research we focused on the necessity of coracoclavicular (CC) joint reconstruction. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this paper, a cohort of 56 patients with Rockwood type III AC joint injury who underwent surgical treatment at our department in 2010-2016 period was retrospectively evaluated. The patients were treated with open reduction with AC joint stabilisation using hook plate or tension band. The patients were divided into 2 groups, namely group 1 with CC ligament reconstruction and group 2 without CC ligament reconstruction. The assessment was done at 6 months, 1 year and 2 years after surgery. The clinical outcomes were assessed based on the absolute Constant score (CS) and coracoclavicular distance (CCD) on the X-ray. Subsequently, the outcomes were statistically processed and compared using the Student s ttest. RESULTS The least invasive surgical intervention, as to the length of incision, was the reconstruction using the hook plate without CC ligament suture, whereas the longest incision was performed in tension band with CC ligament suture. In the CC ligament suture group, the mean operative time was 10 minutes longer. When evaluating the CS of the compared groups with and without CC ligament reconstruction, no statistically significant difference (p > 0.05) was found between the two groups. Similarly, the CCD values at 2-year follow-up did not show any statistically significant difference between the two groups (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The available outcomes suggest that the surgical methods used by us are adequately safe and reliable. Good clinical outcomes can be achieved by open reduction and fixation of Rockwood type III AC joint dislocation even without CC ligament reconstruction. Key words: acromioclavicular dislocation, classification, reconstruction, coracoclavicular ligament.

Every surgeon starts the training with suturing, which can be very confusing as most of the senior surgeons have their own style, approach, tricks and different rules to follow. It is hard for residents and medical students to know what is an evidence-based rule that should be followed and what is a personal trick of their teacher that can be modified. We provide a review of current data on surgical suturing with all the reasons for specific techniques. Parameters of the correct skin suture, practical guide and all the complications are mentioned in the text.
