[Objective]To evaluate several abdominal skin flaps used for treatment of whole-finger degloving injury of multiple fingers.[Method]Since 2000, 45 patients with whole-finger degloving injury of multiple fingers except the thumb were treated with transfer of abdominal skin flaps. Among these patients,10 were treated with random abdominal tubed pattern flaps,15 with pedicle skin flaps with thoraco-umbilical perforator artery,12 with pedicle skin flaps with superficial iliaccircumflex artery,and 8 with embedding with abdominal flaps.At the second-stage operation,fingers were dissected with pedicels or with abdominal flaps before fingerweb plasty and flap plasty were carried out for many times.[Result]All the skin flaps survived. Three fingers of 3 cases had distal cutaneous necrosis after finger web plasty.Follow-up from 5 to 36 months showed the active motion of metacarpophalangeal joints averaged 60?, and interphalangeal articulations averaged 30?.Sensation recovery reached S3 in fingers with remanent palmar digital nerve, but poor in other fingers. All fingers could perform grasping. The contour of fingers was fine except for the 3 cases of necrosis.[Conclusion]Treatment of whole-finger degloving injury of multiple fingers except the thumb with suitable abdominal flaps can restore the shape and function of hand to the greatest extent and is still a practical, safe and convenient operative method.

Objective To introduce the transfer of anterolateral thigh flap with iliotibial tract in repair of massive skin and soft tissue defects of the forearm and reconstruction of extension or flexion of the forearm. Methods Eight cases of complicated raw wounds of the forearm were repaired with transfer of anterolateral thigh flap with iliotibial tract. Flexor tendons of 3 cases and extensor tendons of 5 cases were repaired with iliotibial tract. The axial vessel of the flap was used to rebuild blood supply of the hand. Results All the flaps survived completely. A follow-up ranging from 3 months to 2.5 years re- vealed that the reconstructed forearms were good in appearance and soft in texture and restored protective sensation. Affected limbs could perform extension or flexion. Total range of motion (TRM) of the hands was excellent in 6 cases and poor in 2. Conclusion Anterolateral thigh flap with iliotibial tract can not only repair soft tissue defects of the forearm, but also reconstruct the main extension or flexion of the forearm simultaneously.

ObjectiveTo investigate the modification method of Cervical Spine Injury Severity Score System and discuss diagnosis and treatment strategy of lower cervical spine injuries.Methods Treatments of lower cervical spine injuries were selected according to the injury severity graded by the modified Moore' s classification system.Conservative therapy could be adopted for the patients with stability quantification rating < 3 points or for the those with stability quantification rating =3 points but without spinal cord or nerve root compression.Surgical treatment was recommendable for the patients with stability quantification rating =3 points and with spinal cord or nerve root compression.Surgical therapy could be required for the patients with stability quantification rating ≥4 points and with risk of lower cervical instability.The higher the stability quantification score implied the stronger the surgical indications.Lower cervical spine injury combined with spine cord or nerve root compression had absolute surgical indications.At the same time,therapies were selected based on patients' other factors.ResultsBased on basic principles of the modified Moore' s classification system together with opinions of the patients and their relatives,14 patients were managed with surgical treatment and 16 with conservative treatment.Among the patients with complete spinal cord injury (Grade A),two patients treated surgically showed no obvious signs of spinal function recovery,but their nerve root irritation symptoms disappeared; the other one patient who needed surgery but received conservative treatment had no change of the spinal cord function and nerve root irritation.The patients with incomplete spinal cord injury (Grades B,C and D) treated surgically obtained certain degree of spine cord function recovery,with their American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) score raised by 0.5 grade on average.However,the patients who needed surgery but received conservative treatment gained average increase of ASIA score for 0.5 grade.Imaging examination showed that patients without combined spinal injuries obtained interbody fusion after surgery,with normal alignment and height of the cervical vertebra but without presence of vertebral shift or instability. ConclusionsThe modified Moore' s classification system takes patients' spiaal injury condition and other factors into consideration in selection of conservative or surgical treatment,which improves the Cervical Spine Injury Severity Score System to some extent and has prospect of clinical application.
