The objective of this study is to introduce a novel percutaneous reduction technique for irreducible and difficult paediatric radius and ulna fractures in the distal forearm.From May 2010 to January 2012, the percutaneous joystick technique was conducted in 48 children who sustained irreducible or difficult radius and ulna fractures in the distal forearm. The series comprises 32 male and 16 female...
The aim of this study was to describe and evaluate a surgical technique for the treatment of mallet finger fractures using a K-wire stabilization of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint and another K-wire pressing the bone fragment.Between June 2007 and March 2014, 41 patients (28 men, 13 women) with isolated closed mallet finger fracture were treated using two K-wires. In the cohort, the mean joint...
Complex digital injuries involving soft-tissue loss and digital nerve defect pose a challenging problem for hand surgeons. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of transferring the heterodigital arterialised nerve pedicle flap for reconstructing the digital neurocutaneous defects and to compare the results with those of transferring the cross-finger flap and secondary nerve grafting...
Chlorogenic acid (CGA) is one of the most abundant polyphenol compounds in human diet. Our previous in vitro study demonstrates that CGA presents anti-inflammatory activities in RAW 264.7 cells. Here we show that CGA protects mice against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI). We treated mice with CGA (5, 20 and 50mg/kg body weight) 30min or 3h after intratracheal administration...
