Distal phalanx amputation with delayed presentation and successful reconstruction with reposition and flap after 2 weeks
Jefferson Braga-Silva, Renato Franz Matta Ramos, Gabriela Meirelles Marchese, Pedro Salomao PiccininiIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery 2016 49(3):419-421Traumatic finger amputations are common, causing significant functional and cosmetic deficits. Microsurgical replantation techniques are the mainstay of treatment for most such injuries although they require adequate conservation of the amputated segment for a successful result. In distal finger amputations, replantation is the procedure of choice, as long as the amputated fragment is viable. If replantation is not an option, reposition + flap using a neurovascu...

Assessment of hand function after successful replantation of upper limb at arm
V Koteswara Rao Rayidi, Venkata Bhargava Velde, Narsimha Rao, N Ram Babu, Laxman SambariIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery 2016 49(3):415-418In upper arm replantation, a successful anastomosis guarantees the viability and good quality repair determines the overall function of the hand.There is paucity of successful arm replantation case reports in the literature. This is a case report of a successful arm replantation in a four year child with a near total functional outcome. We have used different scores to assess the functional outcome.

Surgical excision and contoured custom made splint to treat helical keloid
Ankita Chamaria, Reuben Fernando De Sousa, Meena Ajay Aras, Kennedy MascarenhasIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery 2016 49(3):410-414Helical keloids are difficult to treat as surgical excision requires effective compression of the operative scar to prevent recurrence while retaining the contour and elasticity of the helix. The authors fabricated a conforming custom made post-operative splint from a commonly used dental material. Splints could be fabricated in both pre-operative and post-operative stage.

Cardiac troponin I: A potent biomarker for myocardial damage assessment following high voltage electric burn
Arindam Bose, Chandra B Chhabra, Shobha Chamania, Nanda Hemvani, Dhananjay S ChitnisIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery 2016 49(3):406-409Myocardial infarction (MI) following high voltage electric burn is very rare, and its pathogenesis remains controversial. Electrical burns represent only 4% of all burns. Hence, clinical managements have taken a slow pace in developing. The recent guidelines laid down by the cardiology societies include cardiac troponin I (cTnI) as the gold standard marker for the assessment of myocardial damage assessment. Two patients were admitted to our hospital at the different time with th...
