[Predictive factors of complications in abdominal sequelae surgery of weight loss, after bariatric surgery in non-smokers].

Unlabelled: The goal of this work was to find the main predictive factors of postoperative complications, other than smoking, after abdominoplasty or bodylift concerning sequelae of post-bariatric weight loss.

Patients And Method: A retrospective monocentric study, including abdominoplasties or bodylift, after bariatric surgery was carried out between 01/01/2016 and 12/31/2019. The following were excluded: active smokers, non-bariatric patients and/or patients who had already had an abdominoplasty or body lift and/or who had undergone combined surgery.

AgeR deletion decreases soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 production and improves post-ischemic angiogenesis in uremic mice.

Peripheral arterial disease occurs more frequently and has a worse prognosis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is involved in multiple aspects of uremia-associated vasculopathy. Previous data suggest that the RAGE pathway may promote soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (sFlt1) production, an anti-angiogenic molecule.

[Free latissimus dorsi flap lacing and local care in two-stage scalp reconstruction].

Surgical treatment of large and multiple lesions of irradiated scalp may require subtotal scalp exeresis and reconstruction in two-stage free flap surgery: harvesting and placing the flap first, then scalp removing and defect covering in a second step. This strategy raises the question of how to care the flap between the two surgeries. We report an original technique of free latissimus dorsi flap lacing.

Morphometric Analysis of the Umbilicus According to Age.

Background: Morphometric and anatomical analyses of the shape and position of the umbilicus have been conducted in adults, but umbilicoplasty in children remains challenging because growth is still occurring.

Objectives: The main objective of this study was to evaluate the difference in the position and shape of the umbilicus between childhood and adulthood. The secondary objective was to improve the surgical management of umbilicoplasty in children.

[Surgical management of animal bites in children].

Children represent a population at risk, because of their short size, their naivety and their attraction to animals. The face and hands are the most specific locations in young children. Wounds are often multiple.

[Umbilicus in children].

The umbilicus is our first scar. It is the last remain of our life in utero. Besides the umbilical hernia, a common pathology during the first three years of life that rarely requires surgery, there are some rare congenital abnormalities such as gastroschisis and omphalocele, which occur in about 1-5/10,000 births.

Papillary endothelial hyperplasia (Masson's tumor) in children.

Unlabelled: The intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (IPEH/Masson's tumor) is a rare benign tumor of the skin and subcutaneous vessels. We report, in four pediatric cases, clinical presentation, care (diagnostic and surgical) of Masson's tumor in children. Two boys (two years) and two girls (four and six years) showed a pain subcutaneous tumor (one to five centimeters).
