Objective: To explore the method of fabricating larynx-shape tissue engineered cartilage by means of filling together with wrapping with pedicle myofascial flap.
Methods: Serial steps of solution casting, extrusion molding and particulate leaching were used to make larynx-shape [poly (3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate), PHBHH] biomaterial models. The chondrocytes were seeded onto PHBHH models to form cell-PHBHH composites for culture in vitro for one week and then to fill and wrap larynx-shape composites with pedicle myofascial flap.

Objective: To review our experience with a modified rectus/pyramidalis myofascial sling, described more than a century ago for treating refractory urinary incontinence in children with neurogenic sphincteric incompetence.
Patients And Methods: Thirty-seven patients (23 females and 14 males, aged 8-21 years) presented with urinary incontinence which failed to respond to medical treatment. In 36 patients the cause of the incontinence was a neurogenic bladder; one patient had sustained a traumatic injury to the bladder neck and urethra.
Myofascial wrap to treat intractable urinary incontinence in children.

Division of Urology, Children's Memorial Hospital, Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago, Illinois, USA.
Objectives: The management of intractable urinary incontinence in the patient with cloacal or bladder exstrophy/epispadias, failed bladder neck plasty, or failed augmentation cystoplasty remains a surgical challenge. The myofascial wrap, a modification of the rectus fascial wrap, was developed to treat intractable urinary incontinence due to sphincteric incompetence in these problematic cases. A full-thickness, vascularized pedicle of anterior rectus sheath, rectus abdominis muscle, and posterior rector sheath is incorporated into a bladder neck wrap to provide support, mucosal coaptation, and active muscular tone.
