Abstract
Expedited healing of skin wounds is essential regardless of surgical specialty. Any skin deficiency will thwart this basic intent, and an alternative must be sought. The autogenous skin graft or local flap has long had a major role in satisfying this objective. Various forms of autogenous skin graft...

Abstract
Tibial plateau fractures with associated compartment syndrome are severe injuries with elevated infection rates. The objective of this article was to analyze whether there is an association between infection and the timing of definitive fracture fixation in relation to fasciotomy closure or coverage...

We discuss the anatomy, risk factors, examination findings, and treatment for this condition, as well as the unique benefits that ultrasound offers over magnetic resonance imaging. It is important to consider plantar fascia rupture in patients with hindfoot pain and medioplantar ecchymosis, particul...

Abstract
The vertical rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (VRAM) flap has numerous uses in pelvic reconstruction; however, flap harvest can result in abdominal wall morbidity. The authors hypothesized that combining component separation with fascial advancement closure would result in acceptable surgical donor...

Abstract
Musculotendinous variations around the medial epicondyle can contribute to subluxation of the ulnar nerve at the elbow. This article reviews the presenting symptoms, operative findings, and results of surgery for subluxation of the ulnar nerve at the elbow. A retrospective evaluation was performed o...

Abstract
Indomethacin may preserve tissue viability in compartment syndrome. The mechanism of improved tissue viability is unclear, but the anti-inflammatory effects may alter the relative contribution of tissue necrosis versus apoptosis to cellular injury. Existing studies have only considered indomethacin...

In addition to the myotendinous junctions, muscle fibers also are connected to the extracellular matrix along their full peripheral length. Moreover, within the in vivo context, muscle is not an isolated entity. Instead, myofascial tissues connect muscles mechanically to neighboring muscular and non...

An earlier peak in IL-1beta levels and a consistent decrease in TNF-alpha were seen in healing intestinal tissues; but no clear pattern of increased anti-inflammatory or regulatory cytokines was seen, which might explain the earlier healing of intestinal tissues. Additional studies are required to d...

Abstract
The frontal branch of the facial nerve is protected by a deep layer of fascia, termed the parotid-temporal fascia, which is separate from the SMAS as it travels over the zygomatic arch. Division of the SMAS above the arch in a high-SMAS face lift is safe using the technique described in this study....

The posterior brachial fascia was thin, with a broad surface area and easily separable from the subcutaneous and muscular plane. Its average surface size is 115-mm length and 54-mm width. It was richly vascularised by two major pedicles: the cutaneous posterior brachial pedicule and the fascial bran...
