These flap graftings were carried out from Oct. 2010 to Dec. 2012 in our department. The series consisted of 36 patients, including 21 men and 15 women with an average age of 46.2 years （14-83 years） and with a medium followp period of 18 months （12-24 months）. Of all the cases of acute trauma, there were 10 eases of trauma of distal tibia, 9 cases of trauma of perimalleolus, and 17 cases of trauma of midfoot and forefoot. Related risk factors in the patients were diabetes （2 cases）, advanced age （〉65 years, 3 cases） and ciga- rette smoking （6 cases）. The reverse flow sural island flap irrigation depended on lower perforators of the peroneal artery. The fasciocutaneous pedicle was 3-4 cm in width and the anatomical structures consisted of the superficial and deep fascia, the sural nerve, short saphenous vein, superficial sural artery together with an islet of subcutaneous cellular tissue and skin. The most proximal border of the flap was only 1.5 cm away from the popliteal skin crease and the pivot point was 5-7 cm above the tip of the lateral malleolus. All the flaps survived. No arterial crisis occurred in any case. The venous congestion occurred in 2 cases and got better after raising the limbs and bloodletting. Only in an old man, 1.5 cm necrosis of distal margin of his flap occurred and finally healed after continuous dressing change. One-stage skin grafting was performed, and all the donor sites were sutured and successfully healed. It was concluded that the reverse sural fasciocutaneous flap is safe and reliable to extend to the proximal third even near the popliteal skin crease. We also concluded this flap can be safely and efficiently used to treat patients with large and far soft-tissue defects from the distal leg to the forefoot with more versatility and it is easier to reach the recipient sites.展开更多

Methods: Totally 110 patients with finger injury admitted to the rehabilitation department of our department from January 2017 to June 2018 were collected and divided into control group and observation group according to the random number table method with 55 cases in each group. The control group received direct artificial derma lrepairing after thorough debridement, while the observation group received recombinant gm-csf gel coating on the wound surface before artificial dermal repairing, Wound healing, wound inflammation, bacterial detection rate, inflammatory factor expression, follow-up and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results: The wound healing rate of the observation group at 7, 14, 21 and 28 days after treatment was significantly higher than that of the control group (t= 11.211, P =0.000).( T = 14.895, P =0.000;T = 25.346, P=0.000;T =8.247, P=0.000). The wound healing time of the observation group was (19.7±2.3) d, and that of the control group was (27.4±3.3) d. The average wound healing time of the observation group was significantly shorter than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (t=14.197, P= 0.000). Observation group wound inflammation at each time point score was significantly lower than the control group, the group rooms, time points, ·point interaction effect between the comparison, the differences were statistically significant (P <0.05), the observation group wound bacteria detection rate of 7.27% (4 cases) : the control bacteria detection rate was 21.81% (12 cases), difference was statistically significant (chi-square = 4.68, P= 0.0305), the observation group of bacteria detection rate was significantly lower than the control group;The bacteria detected in the two groups were mainly e. coli, tetanus bacillus and fungi. There was no significant difference in the indicators between the two groups before treatment, and the values of inflammatory cytokines il-1 and TNF- IOD in the two groups were significantly decreased after treatment, and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). No serious adverse reactions occurred in either group during the treatment. Conclusion: the application of artificial dermals combined with jinfuning can promote wound healing of skin and soft tissue defect of finger abdomen, effectively inhibit bacterial infection of wound surface, reduce inflammation and infection,reducing bacterial detection rate.展开更多
