  • COMBINED BUCCAL MUCOSAL GRAFT AND SCROTAL FLAP FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF URETHRA IN PRIMARY HYPOSPADIAS REPAIR

    Objective To investigate a method of repairing hypospadias by combining buccal mucosal graft with scrotal flap and its therapeutic effect. Methods From March 2002 to December 2007, 42 patients with hypospadias underwent primary urethral reconstruction using buccal mucosal graft and scrotal flap. The patients ranged in age from 18 months to 18 years. There were 21 cases of penoscrotal type, 12 cases of scrotal type and 9 cases of perineal type. Among them,8 cases were at initial operation, and 34 cases suffered from the failure of hypospadias repair 6-19 months (average 10 months) after initial operation. During operation, the defect of urethra was 3-7 cm (average 4.2 cm) when the penis was straightened; the buccal mucosa (3.0 cm × 1.2 cm-7.0 cm × 1.5 cm) was transplanted to the tunica albuginea in the ventral aspect of the penis, and was paired with the scrotal flap (3.0 cm × 1.5 cm-7.0 cm × 1.5 cm) to repair urethra. Results The incision of 38 cases healed by first intention, and no compl ication occurred. At 7 days after operation, 4 cases had urinary fistula at either coronary sulcus or anastomotic stoma, one of which spontaneously closed 2 months after operation and the rest 3 recovered by repairing urinary fistula 6 months after operation. All patients were followed for 3-48 months (average 18 months). Urination was smooth, the reconstructed urethral opening was at the tip of glans peins without retraction and with apperance similar to the normal urethral opening. The appearance of penis and scrotum was satisfying, and the penis was straightened completely. Conclusion Combined buccal mucosal graft and scrotal flap, with considerable tissue for uretha tract reconstruction and low incidence rate of urethral stricture, is one of the effective methods to repair hypospadias.

  • CORRECTION OF NASOLABIAL FOLD

    Objective To introduce a new method for correction of deep nasolabial fold. Methods From May 1998 to May 2002, 20 patients( aging 32-48 years, female) with deep nasolabial fold were treated with the buried guiding suture appliance and method through oral incision. Results All patients recovered without complications , the scar is minimal. Six patients were followed up 6 to 12 months, stable and permanent result was achieved. Conclusion This method is simple and reliable for correction of nasolabial fold.

  • EFFECT OF BOTULINUM TOXIN TYPE A ON EXCESSIVE EXPANSION OF MYOCUTANEOUS FLAP

    Objective To investigate the effects of botulinum toxin type A (BTXA) on the excessive expansion speed and blood supply of myocutaneous flap. Methods Seven adult Guizhou minipigs of clean grade were included, female or male and weighing 16-20 kg. The 2.4 mL BTXA solution (96 U) was injected in cutaneous muscle (24 points) of one side as experimental group (n=7), the 2.4 mL saline in the other side as control group (n=7). Two expanders (200mL) were implanted beneath the cutaneous muscle on the bilateral flank of each pig symmertrically at 3 days after injection. One week later, the expanders were filled with saline every 4 days with an intracapsular pressure of 11.97 kPa, and accumulative total amounted to 400 mL for 3 weeks in control group and 5 weeks in experimental group. Then the expanders were taken out; the myocutaneous flaps formed and were sutured in situ. The myocutaneous flaps were cut for histological examination and capillary count. The expansion speed of the myocutaneous flap were recorded. The blood supply of the myocutaneous flap were observed by infrared thermography at 1 week after implantation expanders, before removing the expanders, and at 5 days after myocutaneous flap suture in situ. Results All the animals survived to the end of the experiment. The total expansion time was (54.0 ± 3.1) days in experimental group and (67.0 ± 3.9) days in control group, showing significant difference (t= —8.107, P=0.000). All myocutaneous flaps survived after being sutured in situ. Infrared thermograhy revealed that the temperature of the distal myocutaneous flap in experimental group was significantly higher than that in control group at 1 week after implantation of expanders (P lt; 0.05); at 5 days after myocutaneous flap suture in situ, the temperature of the central flap in experimental group was significantly higher than that in control group (P lt; 0.05); and there was no significant difference between 2 groups at the other time points (P gt; 0.05). The histological observation showed that the blood vessel density of the dermal layer and tissue between the capsule and the muscle layer in experimental group was significantly higher than those in control group (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion When excessive expansion is performed, BTXA can accelerate the expansion rate and improve the blood supply of expanded myocutaneous flaps.

  • CLINICAL APPLICATION OF AUTOLOGOUS BUCCAL MICRO-MUCOSA GRAFT IN VAGINAL RECONSTRUCTION

    Objective To investigate the effect of vaginal reconstruction with autologous buccal micro-mucosa graft. Methods From March 2007 and April 2008, 10 patients with absence of vagina were treated, aged 18-31 years (mean 26 years). Nine of them were congenital absence of vagina, and the remaining one was vaginal stenosis after vaginal reconstruction.They all exhibited normal secondary sexual characteristics, normal hormonal levels and 46, XX karyotype. Their abdominal ultrasounography revealed the normal ovaries and tubes but absence of the uterus or small rudimentary horns. However the one with vaginal stenosis had normal uterus. The buccal mucosa graft was minced into 0.5 mm in size and was transplanted to the cavity which was dissected between the bladder and the rectum. Results The operation was performed successfully in all cases. The operative time was about 1-2 hours and operative blood loss was 80-100 mL. Postoperative compl ication occurred in only one case for vaginal bleeding. The patient recovered and the wound healed well after immediate management. The others healed primarily without any compl ications. All cases were followed up for 4-16 months. The depth of neovagina which was formed was 6-10 cm and the width was about two fingers. The l ining was pink-colored and smooth, and was confirmed as nonkeratizing squamous stratified mucosa by histopathological examination. The donor sites healed uneventfully with no change in mouth opening. The perineal area was not disturbed. Four patients were married and satisfied with their sexual l ife without pain and bleeding. Conclusion Vaginal reconstruction with autologous buccal micro-mucosa graft is an easy, minimally invasive and useful method.

  • COMBINATION OF PENIS FLAP AND BUCCAL MUCOSA GRAFT TO TREAT PHALLICAL URETHRAL STRICTURE

    Objective To summarize the cl inical effect of a new operative technique of combining penis flap with buccal mucosa graft in the treatment of phall ical urethral stricture. Methods From March 2006 to December 2007, 6 patients with phall ical urethral stricture, aged 3-26 years old, were treated by the method of combining degloved penis flap with buccalmucosa graft. All of them had the symptom of dysuria within 2-10 months after urethroplasty. The urethral stent of highelasticity sil ica was kept for 2-3 weeks after operation. Results Five patients’ incisions obtained heal ing by first intention with satisfying urination and there were no compl ications. Sl ight infection appeared in 1 case at 3 days after operation, with small quantities of suppurative exudate in the incision, which healed through open drainage and washing with antibacterial 2 weeks later. The thinning of the urinary stream was presented at 1 month after operation, and then disappeared after 2-month urethral dilatation. All the 6 patients were followed up for 6-10 months and they felt satisfied with emiction. They had a l ittle bit thicker urinary streams than those of their own age. There was not any residual urine in bladder after emiction. Conclusion The method of combining penis flap with buccal mucosa graft is effective in the treatment of phall ical urethral stricture. It deserves to be popularized due to its simple operation and credible effects.
