Towards Starting a Hand Transplant Unit and Achieving Success in a Hand Transplant: The Standard Operating Procedure.

Vascularized Composite Tissue Allotransplantation (VCA) allows replacement of lost body parts from brain-dead donors. These surgeries are laborious, time-intensive, and require vast planning. With the advent of better immunosuppressants, VCA will increasingly play an important role in the reconstructive field.

Primary Mandibular Tuberculous Osteomyelitis Mimicking Ameloblastoma: A Case Report and Literature Review of Mandibular Tuberculous Osteomyelitis.

Primary tuberculous osteomyelitis involving the mandible represents less than 2% of skeletal locations. In this paper, we report a case of mandibular tuberculosis (TB) detected after histopathological analysis of the surgically resected specimen during surgical management of a suspected case of ameloblastoma. A 14-year-old male patient presented to us with history of right-sided chin swelling.

Study to Determine the Effect of Diaper-Based Wound Care Method in Reducing Wound Contamination Period in Patients Suffering from Perianal Burn Wound.

 Local wound care in perianal burn wounds is difficult owing to the risk of contamination from fecal soiling. The problem is aggravated in small children and bedridden critical patients who are unable to convey passage of stools. We used diaper-based wound care to reduce contamination.

Use of Minced Residual Skin Grafts to Improve Donor Site Healing in Split-Thickness Skin Grafting.

Background The morbidity of the donor site in split-thickness skin graft (STSG) may include abnormal pigmentation, delayed healing, and unfavorable scarring. Studies are usually focused on improving the healing of the recipient site, so donor site management becomes a secondary consideration. An optimal solution should be sought for donor site management to improve healing and minimize morbidity.
