Perforator mapping in the trunk: a guide for freestyle flap surgery and an introduction to the sustainable anatomical study
2012
Introduction: Freestyle Perforator flaps minimize flap harvest morbidity and can be harvested anywhere in the body if perforators anatomy is well known. A study of trunk perforator vessels has been performed on recycled CT scans avoiding cadaver investigations or unnecessary radiation exposure. Materials and Methods: 200 CT scans, performed for the study of liver or pancreatic disease, were examined. No unnecessary radiation was administered. Previous abdominal surgery was reason of exclusion.

Alppi- ja freestylehiihtäjien fyysisten ominaisuuksien muutokset vuoden seurannan aikana
2000
Huipputason alppilajien urheilijalta vaaditaan korkeaa aerobista sekä erittäin korkeaa anaerobista kapasiteettia, nopeutta, ketteryyttä, tasapainoa, koordinaatiota ja taitoa (Andersen & Montgomery 1988; Brown & Wilkinson 1983; Bosco ym. 1994). Toisaalta alppilajien harjoituskausien vaikutuksista lajissa vaadittaviin ominaisuuksiin on olemassa hyvin vähän raporto itua tutkimustietoa. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena olikin selvittää alppilajien fyysisten ominaisuuksien muutoksia harjoitus- ja kilpailukaudella sekä testien soveltuvuutta alppilajien menestyksen kuvaamiseen. Koehenkilöryhmä koostui Suomen Hiihtoliiton alppi- ja freestylehiihtomaajoukkueiden urheilijoista. Alppihiihtäjäryhmä sisä…
Unilateral Maximal Isometric Hex Bar Pull Test : Within-Session Reliability and Lower Body Force Production in Male and Female Freeski Athletes
2021
The aim of the study was to (1) assess the within-session reliability of a unilateral isometric hex bar pull (UIHBP) maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) test and, (2) determine unilateral isometric absolute peak force (PFabs) and relative peak force (PF) values in freeski athletes. Twenty-one male and eight female academy to national team freeskiers performed the novel UIHBP MVC task on a force plate and PFabs and relative PF were assessed (1000 Hz). Within-session measures of PFabs offered high reliability on left and right limbs for males (ICC = 0.91–0.94, CV = 2.6–2.2%) and females (ICC = 0.94–0.94, CV = 1.4–1.6%), while relative PF measures showed good to high reliability in both left a…
Propeller flap for treatment of a poststernotomy sternal fistula: A case report.
2014
Summary The treatment of post-operative deep sternal wound infections is a real challenge for surgeons. Conservative treatment with debridement and vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) therapy is not always successful. In the most severe and chronic cases, a surgical debridement and reconstruction of the defect is mandatory. In this report, the authors present a case of a 61-year-old female patient with a chronic cutaneous fistula in the sternal region following a median sternotomy after coronary artery bypass. The patient had already undergone treatment with antibiotics, drainage of an abscess and local debridement, but the infection continued to relapse periodically. The authors decided to treat…
Reconstruction of Nasal Alar Defects with Freestyle Facial Artery Perforator Flaps
2014
In 2009, we have described the use of freestyle facial artery perforator flaps for one-stage nose reconstruction. Since then, several articles have reported the use of facial artery perforator flaps for nose reconstruction. The purpose of this article is to provide an update of the published technique after 10 years of experience. Since 2004, 21 patients have been treated with a freestyle facial artery perforator flap for one-stage reconstruction of the nasal ala. The flaps were 16 propellers, 4 V-Y, and 1 island transposition. A single venous congestion leading to a minor flap tip necrosis and a wound dehiscence was observed. All other flaps healed uneventfully. The V-Y design and multiple…
