[Skin replacement on the penis (author's transl)].

For skin replacement on the penis and scrotum, only a free split-skin graft (about 0.45 mm in thickness) can be considered in cases where local flaps are not available. The transplant is fixed on the denuded penis with a special thermoplast splint, which ensures healing in. Additional sedation is necessary. Pedicle flaps taken from some distance away are too voluminous for the penis and not adequate. Cases with eschars and granulation tissue must be carefully cleaned to avoid hypertrophic scars. Covering can also be achieved with mesh-grafts in these cases.

Early operation in craniofacial dysostosis.

Craniofacial dysostosis is encountered in different congenital malformations such as Kleeblattschädel deformity, Crouzon's disease, and Apert's, Chotzen's, Pfeiffer's, and Carpenter's syndromes. Premature closure of cranial and facial sutures leads to characteristic disfigurement of the skull with orbital and maxillary hypoplasia. Operative treatment should be performed as early in life as possible to prevent further functional and esthetic deficiencies, and psychosocial problems. Correction is done by an intracranial approach with mobilization, remodeling, and advancement of the deformed skull. Thirty-two children have been operated during the first year of life with a maximum follow-up of 8 years. Most favorable results were obtained in 28 cases. The rate of complications were lower than in a series of children operated on later in life. We advocate that complex 1-stage corrections of craniofacial syndromes may be safely carried out during infancy utilizing modern techniques, expert pediatric anesthesia, and postoperative intensive care.

Reconstruction of the helical rim with the rubber band-conditioned postauricular tubed flap: a case report.

OBJECTIVE: A case with posttraumatic tissue loss of the auricle is presented, where successful reconstruction with the aid of a tubed flap is achieved by gradual lysis within three stages. BACKGROUND: Helical rim losses may be reconstructed with a tubed flap created from postauricular tissue. METHOD: The vascularity of the tubed flap was increased with the intermittent application of a rubber band tourniquet. CONCLUSION: The use of a tourniquet before completing the third stage of the helical rim reconstruction may enhance the reliability of this procedure.
