The reversed dermis flap.

The reversed dermis principle of Hynes has been applied to flaps. There are 2 main varieties: the direct bridge pedicle flap and the turn-over local flap but the same principle might occasionally be useful in free flaps.

Utilization of angiography in trauma.

In conclusion, I have tried to present a rational approach to the work-up of the traumatized patient. One must consider the mechanism of injury, the region where the most damage has been inflicted, and, most important of all, the clinical condition in which the patient arrives. With injuries in most of the body parts, there will not be time to perform any angiographic procedure in category 1 patients. They may or may not have intraoperative or postoperative angiograms. Category 2 patients benefit most from angiography; therapy will often be dictated based on the results. Category 3 patients are studied as necessary; the decision is made with strong consideration given to the type of trauma and the proximity of major vessels. For all groups of patients, angiography should be performed as soon as possible to avoid the sequelae of delay in treatment, as pointed out previously, particularly delayed rupture of arteries. This is becoming increasingly important as angiography has started to play a bigger role in the early therapeutic intervention of the traumatized patient. It is expected that appropriate and increasing use of arteriography will improve organ, limb, and patient salvage by early surgical or transcatheter techniques.

[Special care of injured patients after returning to work].

The changes in the type of injury, as well as in the treatment, and the consequences observed during the check-up of the injured patients set the problem of the prolonged care of the patients after the articular fractions of the lower extremity, amputation, arthroplasty, and severe lesions of the hand. Systematic observation, eventual change of the life and work conditions, temporary rest, conservative treatment or surgical intervention performed in due time allow the prevention of serious complications and assure lasting recovery.

Cause and effect of road traffic accidents.

Over a ten year period, research in the Maxillofacial Unit of a District General Hospital into the mechanism by which facial injuries were sustained is reviewed. The work, based on the Unit in Chichester, Sussex, England, covered a large rural area with a resident population of approximately 600,000 which increased significantly during the summer holiday period, due to the influx of visitors. During the summer months, not only do the personnel in the area quadruple but so does the road traffic producing significant problems in the management of road traffic accidents.
