The authors present a case report of a patient with anophthalmia in whom retroauriculo-temporal flap (Washio flap) was used for reconstruction of eyelids. This flap, which is mostly used for reconstructions of nasal defects, was not used in this way according to available literature.

OBJECTIVE: The oronasal cavity in humans develops during embryonic day 30-60. There are three critical periods when this process can be affected, resulting in a specific type of orofacial cleft: cleft lip (CL), cleft palate (CP), or most serious, total cleft lip+palate (CLP). We assessed whether gestational bleeding during early pregnancy might act to produce a non-specific worsening of embryo status resulting in extension of the basic cleft type (CL or CP) into more serious CLP. STUDY DESIGN: In a group of the child patients with orofacial clefts, the cleft spectrum was correlated with first trimester gestational bleeding reported by the mother. Data were also related to the gender of patients, hereditary factors and additional malformations. RESULTS: Among 2524 mothers who gave birth to babies with an orofacial cleft in the Czech Republic during 1983-2009, 253 (10.0%) had gestational bleeding. Among the children with an orofacial cleft, 497 (19.7%) had an orofacial cleft among relatives and 297 (11.8%) exhibited an additional congenital malformation. In comparison with mothers without bleeding, there was significant increase of children with CLP (p < 0.01) at the expense of children with CP, whose number significantly decreased (p < 0.01) in the bleeding mothers. In the group of children with clefts among relatives we did not find any significant change associated with bleeding. The maternal bleeding was more frequent in children with additional malformations, but this difference was not significant (p = 0.112). CONCLUSION: We hypothesize that size/extent and therefore seriousness of orofacial cleft might increase as a consequence of hypoxia resulting from gestational bleeding.

BACKGROUND: The reconstruction of the nose is one of the most complicated aesthetic-reconstructive procedures. The difficulty of the procedure lies is in the necessity for reconstruction not only to capture the very complicated, various shapes of the nose but also to preserve the function of the nose: to allow the patient to breathe through the nose. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 12-year-old girl had loss injury of the part of left wing of the nostril. We used the compound nasolabial flap with a small excess to resolve the mucosal and skin defect. One year after the first operation relief of natural transition of the new wing of the nostril and cheek was created with small island flap. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: The reconstruction of a wing of the nostril in multistage procedures with combined nasolabial flap and island flap allowed us to perform precise modelation of the nostril wing with the natural transition to the cheek. An island flap with its scars creates the required contour of a nostril wing and prevents the collapse and flattening of the nostril wing externally.

The authors present an interesting case of a suckling baby treated for forearm tumour. All the preoperative examinations including the imaging methods are documented, as are the surgical procedures and the final results. The case report is interesting not only because such surgery is infrequent but also due to the unpredictable progress of the final diagnosis statement. Before surgery the tumour was diagnosed as an organising haematoma; based on clinical and radiological signs the diagnosis subsequently rose to rapidly growing haemangioma or vascular malformation causing arm paresis and vascular supply disorder. The diagnosis was changed to angiolipoma during surgery. The final histopathological statement was: infantile fibrosarcoma. Despite the virtue of imaging methods and meticulous clinical examination, the surgical and histopathological findings are not necessarily absolutely identical. Having presented this particular case the authors would like to share their experience.

Malignant vulvar tumors must be treated by radical removal of the tumor as well as a sufficient amount of surrounding healthy tissue. The resulting defects can be resolved by skin transplants, local transfers, skin flaps, muscle flaps or free tissue transfers. We describe the case history of a patient who underwent radical vulvectomy for a malignant tumor with immediate reconstruction by local flaps from the area of inner thighs and mons pubis. The advantages and disadvantages of this method are compared to other reconstructive surgery methods.

BACKGROUND: Facelift is currently one of the most requested procedures among consumers of aesthetic plastic surgery. Like any operation, it is accompanied by a variety of potential complications, with postoperative bleeding probably the most frequent. Hematomas can cause hyperpigmentation,contour changes due to subcutaneous scarring, prolongation of healing, and necrosis of the skin flap. The most common treatment is manual expression of the blood coagula. Needle aspiration sometimes cannot be used because of the viscosity of the coagula. METHODS: Seven patients underwent a new method of hematoma removal from wounds. One to two sutures were removed above the hairline under local anesthesia and a short liposuction cannula, 2.5 mm in diameter and 10–15 cm in length with one or two openings, was used for coagulum suction. RESULTS: All treated patients had the hematoma suction procedure without complications and with satisfactory outcomes and no subsequent bleeding. CONCLUSION: Coagulum suction is a simple and fast method that can shorten the recovery following a facelift.This method cannot replace surgical revision in cases in which there is substantial and/or persistent bleeding.However, it can reduce hematomas that are large enough to delay healing and interfere with convalescence, yet too small to warrant surgical revision.

OBJECTIVE: The goal of this work is to compare therapeutic results of two groups of patients with an infected fracture or chronic osteomyelitis of the lower leg and ankle joint treated by the method of radical debridement followed by free flap transfer or muscle transposition. PATIENTS: In the period between 1 January 2002 and 30 September 2007 the authors used this method in the treatment of 52 patients (10 females and 42 males) with the average age of 44 years (ages ranged from 10 to 67). The observed group of patients was divided into retrospective and prospective subgroups. METHODS: The difference between the retrospective and prospective parts of the study was how radical the debridement and necrectomy of the soft tissues was. A comparison of therapeutic results in both subgroups was made by evaluation of the amounts of postoperative complications, number of follow-up surgeries and the actual weight-bearing ability of the treated extremity. RESULTS: The difference in the number of postsurgical complications (7 versus 2) was not significant (p=0.123), and neither was the difference in the number of follow-up surgeries (20 versus 17, p=0.706). The difference in the number of patients with fully weightbearing extremities (21 versus 22) was also not significant (p=0.670). CONCLUSION: The authors feel that analysis of complications showed somewhat better results in the prospective part of the study, despite the lack of statistical proof. Therefore the authors regard the method of extensive debridement with the following coverage of the soft tissue defect by muscle flap as suitable for the treatment of infected fractures in the area of the lower leg and ankle joint and the treatment of osteomyelitis of the tibia.

The author presents experience with the treatment of chronic bronchopleural fistula in a patient who suffered a gunshot injury to his right chest. During the primary assessment the patient underwent resection of two lobes of the right lung, and the patient healed without complications. Four years later the patient presented with bronchopleural fistula with empyema. We had to proceed with right sided pneumonectomy and close up the fistula. The fistula recurred, and the patient underwent repeated operations by chest surgeons without success. Finally, the situation was solved by a contralateral latissimus dorsi muscle free flap. The free-flap was wrapped around the bronchial stump, and the muscle also filled the chest cavity. We discuss the post-surgical course and present the final result.
