  • Comparing Steri-Strip and surgical staple wound closures after primary total knee arthroplasties
    European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, 2017
    Co-Authors: Satoshi Takayama, Takeshi Yamamoto, Chiduru Tsuchiya, Hideo Noguchi, Junko Sato, Yoshinori Ishii
    Abstract:

    Background Steri-Strips (3M, Two Harbors, MN, USA) have recently been employed for skin closures after orthopedic surgeries. Here we compare the performance of Steri-Strips and skin staples for wound closure after primary total knee arthroplasties (TKAs). Methods A total of 76 consecutive osteoarthritic knees (71 patients) that underwent a primary TKA at our facility were included in this study. Thirty-eight knees received Steri-Strips for wound closure and were evaluated prospectively. The other 38 knees were closed with skin staples (Staple group) and evaluated retrospectively. Results No deep or superficial infections developed in this series. Although Steri-Strips detached from three knees during the 10-day postoperative period, no dehiscence was observed. Thirteen knees developed blisters around the surgical incision in the Steri-Strip group compared with five knees in the Staple group. The average operative time for the Steri-Strip group was 60.6 min (SD 7.3) compared with 54.1 min (SD 6.9) in the Staple group. There were significant differences in operative time ( p

  • Presurgical Nasoalveolar Molding in a 4-day-old Infant with Unilateral Cleft Lip, Alveolus, and Palate Deformity
    APOS Trends in Orthodontics, 2018
    Co-Authors: Abin Mathew, Sunil Muddaiah, Jayanth B Subrahmanya, Sanju Somaiah, Balakrishna Shetty, Goutham Reddy
    Abstract:

    Introduction A four day old male infant was referred to our department. Infant’s mother complained of an opening over lip and difficulty in feeding and desires to get it corrected. On clinical examination patient showed complete unilateral cleft lip, alveolus and palate deformity towards the left side. Methods On the initial visit, lip taping using 1/4inch 3M Steri-Strip was applied and instructions were given to parents about lip taping, and advised to continue lip taping for 2 weeks. Initial impressions were taken to fabricate the Presurgical nasoalveolar molding appliance. Intraoral molding plate was made to approximate the maxillary segments. Nasal stent was added to correct the nose deformity. Presurgical impressions were made. Results Under this pre surgical treatment, the cleft alveolus reduced in size from 13mm to 3mm at the alveolar ridge and palate, respectively. The nasal wing was lifted considerably. Conclusion Pre-surgical nasoalveolar moulding helped to reduce the cleft gap, improve the arch form, approximate lip segments and distinctly improve the morphology of the nose by correcting flattened nasal wings. This aforementioned correction not only enabled better aesthetic results after surgery but also reduced tissues tension and scar formation post-surgery.
