Restoration of upper extremity function after peripheral nerve injuries.

These days injuries to the peripheral nerves of the upper extremity that necessitate total or partial lesion are very common in the household and working environment. With regard to the majority of these injuries, not only plastic surgeons or neurosurgeons must have knowledge of their correct treatment, but general surgeons as well. The principles of reconstruction of the peripheral nerves of the upper extremity are described. The authors refer to immediate and delayed nerve repair, free nerve grafting, free vascularised nerve grafting, tendon transfer for a paralyzed hand, pedicled muscle transfer, functioning free muscle transplantation and neurotization.

New trends in the complex treatment in the Cleft Centre in Bratislava.

The last decade of the second millennium has brought some major changes into the concept of comprehensive treatment of the cleft lip and palate patients commonly accepted by the cleft center in Bratislava. Important events occurred, which surely had and in future they probably still would have an important impact on the comprehensive medical care of children with cleft lip and palate. There is beyond any doubt that an ongoing application of new trends in such fields as plastic surgery, anesthesiology, maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, phonetics, speech therapy, paediatrics, human genetics or teratology will contribute to the progress and improvement of functional and aesthetic results and to better social adaptation of the cleft lip and palate patients. The study focuses on the following issues: cleft incidence, timing of the primary surgical repair, as well as the need of secondary operations (closures of communications, bone grafts, pharyngeal flaps, corrections of the lip and nose) and the achieved standard of speech quality and articulation, as well as on the early and late otological states and phonation. (Tab. 7, Fig. 3, Ref. 8.)

[Hernias in the abdominal wall].

The authors emphasize the relapse frequency of the front abdominal wall hernias. Umbilical hernias, epigastric hernias, hernias in postoperative scars, as well as diastases of m. rectus abdominis are still not appropriately evaluated problem in surgery. Numeral surgical methods and procedures provide evidence of this fact. In spite of this, the relapses are frequent. In order to prevent relapses of hernias and to support the firmness of the abdominal wall, the authors use the corium graft technique. This study provides the description of the graft preparation. This surgical method was used in 54 patients, in whom no recurrence was recorded within the period of 1-3 years after surgery. The authors consider this procedure as being useful and effective. The methodical procedure is simple and economically advantageous, as autografts are ideal from the biological point of view. (Tab. 1, Fig. 6, Ref. 10.)

[Separation of peripheral nerve fascicles. Electron microscopic study].

We have examined the sciatic nerve of cats and rabbits. In cats, the epineurium was removed for 10 mm length, and in rabbits for 30 mm. The fascicles of the nerves were separated by a scalpel using an operating microscope. The nerves were observed by electron microscopy, in cats 30 days and in rabbits 90 days after operating. In cats, the internal structure of fascicles was injured and circular parts were formed by fibrocytes which have included axons and Schwann cells. The basal lamina of Schwann cells was injured particularly. In rabbits, a new construction was observed in the internal structure of the nerve. The perineurium was repaired by cells with basal lamina and with 2...5 lamella.
