- Estudo prospectivo da sensibilidade tátil em mãos de uma população brasileira usando pressure-specified sensory device(2012) TUSTUMI, Francisco; NAKAMOTO, Hugo Alberto; TUMA JUNIOR, Paulo; MILCHESKI, Dimas André; FERREIRA, Marcus CastroOBJECTIVE: To evaluate the pressure perception thresholds on the pulp of two fingers (index and little fingers), among a Brazilian population with no nerve injury or neuropathy. METHODS: We used the Pressure-Specified Sensory Device (a computerized device) to derive static and dynamic normal pressure perception thresholds and two-point discrimination distances. RESULTS: We tested finger sensitivity on 30 volunteers. Significance analyses were performed using the Student t test. The mean values (g/mm²) for static one and two-point pressure thresholds (s1PD, s2PD) and dynamic one and two-point discrimination (m1PD, m2PD) in the dominant index finger were: s1PD = 0.4, m1PD = 0.4, s2PD = 0.48, m2PD = 0.51. CONCLUSION: There was no significant difference in sensitivity between the dominant and nondominant hands.
- Abdominoplastia vertical para tratamento do excesso de pele abdominal após perdas ponderais maciças(2012) TUMA JR., Paulo; BATISTA, Bernardo Pinheiro de Senna Nogueira; MILAN, Lincoln Saito; FARIA, Gladstone Eustáquio de Lima; MILCHESKI, Dimas André; FERREIRA, Marcus CastroBACKGROUND: Bariatric surgeries are becoming increasingly common in the treatment of morbidly obese patients. The enormous weight loss resulting from these procedures causes excessive skin and subcutaneous tissue throughout the body, especially in the abdominal region. The objective of this study was to present the technique of vertical abdominoplasty as an alternative for resection of excess skin in ex-obese patients. METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated the records of 40 patients who underwent vertical abdominoplasty between 2004 and 2009. The degree of patient satisfaction was assessed through a subjective scale, with scores ranging from 0 to 10. RESULTS: Twenty-five percent of the patients had minor complications (3 seromas, 3 minor dehiscences, and 5 hypertrophic scars), which were all treated on an outpatient basis. Sixty-seven percent of the patients reported high satisfaction and considered their results as good (grades 7 or 8) or excellent (grades 9 or 10). CONCLUSIONS: The vertical abdominoplasty technique appears to be a new option for the treatment of excess abdominal skin in ex-obese patients.
- Desenvolvimento de modelo experimental de avulsão de retalhos em membros inferiores de ratos(2012) MILCHESKI, Dimas André; FERREIRA, Marcus Castro; NAKAMOTO, Hugo Alberto; TUMA JR, PauloBACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to develop an experimental model for degloving injuries of the hind limbs of rats and observe flap viability after its relocation to the wound bed to better study the changes related to the injury and to test the therapeutic modalities in avulsed flaps. METHODS: Ninety male Wistar rats were divided into 4 experimental groups. A flap avulsion model on the lower limb of a rats was established, using 4 different pedicles: proximal flow pedicled flap (G1), distal flow pedicled flap (G2), lateral flow pedicled flap (G3), and medial flow pedicled flap (G4). RESULTS: Comparison between the mean necrotic area of the degloved flap showed statistically significant differences among the 4 groups (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: The group with the distal flow pedicled flap (G2) showed a higher necrotic area relative to the total flap area and it is the most suitable group for testing therapeutic agents in avulsed flaps.
