Replantation of severed ear parts.

We have used a technique whereby a severed ear part is sutured back into place on "shaved" areas on the medical surface of the remaining ear and on the corresponding retroauricular area. After 4 to 6 weeks, the ears are freed and the raw surfaces are skin grafted. We think that replantation of severed ear parts is justifiable, and we recommend this method whereby the supply of blood vessels is increased.

Resur-splint fixation for cross-leg flaps. Case report.

Methods for the fixation of cross-leg flaps are reviewed, and an improved form of splint fixation is presented. The fixation is based on pre-operatively constructed splints of the plastic material Resur Trovidur PE. The splints can easily be removed and remounted, the material can be sterilized, the fixation can be employed and adjusted during the operation. The method has been used in 2 cases and proved applicable both during the operation and in the subsequent immobilization period.

Ankle dislocation without fracture in a young athlete.

This is a case report of a 34-year-old male who sustained an ankle dislocation injury without any associated fractures to the foot, ankle, or leg while playing basketball. After an extensive review of the literature, it was found that this type of injury without any associated fractures is an extremely rare occurrence. A case report and a review of the literature are presented in this paper.

Prevalence of anti-HCV in Norwegian blood donors with anti-HBc or increased ALT levels.

Testing for hepatitis B core antibodies (anti-HBc) was performed in 12,104 consecutive blood donors, 139 (1.15%) of whom were found to be positive. The first 6036 donors were also screened for ALT; 91 (1.51%) had repeatedly elevated values. ALT screening was of no help in detecting anti-HBc-positive donors. Those with anti-HBc or repeatedly raised ALT levels were further tested for hepatitis C virus antibodies (anti-HCV), and 3 (2.16%) and 1 (1.10%) anti-HCV-positive donors were detected, respectively. This prevalence of anti-HCV (0.5%) is not significantly different from that found in 1000 unselected donors at our blood bank. Testing for ALT and anti-HBc as surrogate markers for hepatitis C is therefore not recommended in Norwegian blood donors and should be replaced by anti-HCV screening.
