Japan has faced the most challenging times in the past. Through precise diligence by stalwarts and doyens of initial hand surgeons, it led an incredible path for the most significant moments of hand surgery. This article describes the early phase of development of Japanese Society for Surgery of the hand, substantial and innovative contributions from surgeons. A noteworthy and significant achievement in the hand surgery is microsurgery and its utilities for all hand-related diseases. The first replantation of the thumb, toe transfers and wrap-around flaps are the effective surgical techniques developed and imparted to the fellow hand surgeons worldwide. We had a particular interest in congenital hand surgery and developed a modification of congenital hand classifications and introduced many surgical techniques. Besides, we grew ourselves refining more in hand and microsurgery, innovating flexor tendon repair, peripheral nerve surgeries, wrist arthroscopy, joint replacements, external fixators, and implant arthroplasty for rheumatoid hand. We share our health care information, insurance working model and hand surgery training schedule in Japan. 相似文献

Advances in gene technologies have meanwhile reached plastic surgery. Important contributions in this field (which are not all included in the paper) come not only from plastic surgeons, but also from neighboring specialities like dermatology, trauma surgery, orthopedics and vascular surgery. The uniting principle for all this work is improving wound healing and reconstructing tissue defects taking into consideration functional and aesthetic aspects. Gene-therapy is gaining further importance in the clinical field of plastic surgery. In this regard, every clinician has to be aware of the fact that progress in experimental and experimental-clinical work will be achieved only with the help of basic science. On the other hand, basic science needs the clinical input to get relevant patient-oriented studies started. Further intensive cooperation between clinicians and basic scientists is therefore mandatory. In plastic surgery, 2 years ago we founded a forum called ECSAPS (European Conference of Scientists and Plastic Surgeons), which takes place in European city every year. 相似文献

Sir Astley Paston Cooper (1768-1841) was a successful and influential British surgeon during the early decades of the 19th century. He was a dedicated anatomist, an accomplished researcher, an inspiring teacher, and a skillful surgeon. Cooper published about the cause and treatment of Dupuytren's disease 10 years before Dupuytren. His contributions were widespread and substantially advanced the understanding and treatment of breast disease, vascular aneurysms, and abdominal wall hernias, along with orthopedic, otologic, and hand surgery. His contributions to surgical science have endured and are being used today. 相似文献

The Chicago School of Hand Surgery played a pivotal role in the genesis of the specialty of hand surgery in the United States and abroad. Drs. Alan Kanavel, Sumner Koch, Michael Mason, and Harvey Allen were among the first "modern" surgeons to carefully and systematically assess the care and treatment of hand injuries and hand pathology. This article highlights the lives and contributions of the founders of the Chicago School of Hand Surgery. 相似文献

Raymond Curtis was an unusual man who lived in unusual times and made unusual contributions. He promoted hand surgery, a specialty that was little known in his early time. He educated many surgeons in the science, art, and philosophy of hand surgery. He favorably impacted the course of the American Society for Surgery of the Hand (ASSH) by his prudence and desire to advance its cause. His influence has altered the topography and milieu of our specialty and contributed to its progress and prosperity. His legacy is perpetuated by many of his protégées who continued to emulate his humility, intensity, and unique craftsmanship. 相似文献

The German surgeon Otto Hilgenfeldt (1900-1983) was a great innovator in European hand surgery in the 20th century, particularly in respect of the tactile (sensate) thumb and grip reconstruction in amputation injuries. His experience, beginning in the 1930s, helped him to treat hundreds of soldiers with mutilating hand injuries from 1941 to 1945 during World War II. While totally isolated and without any access to international publications, he devised many innovative ideas such as a neurovascular middle finger transposition for pollicization (first case done in July 1943) and a sensory dorsoradial first metacarpal flap for thumb resurfacing. His book Operative thumb replacement and substitution of finger losses published in 1950 is regarded as one of the most important German contributions to modern hand surgery. Hilgenfeldt's life and work remain fascinating and exemplary from a historical and surgical point of view. Many of his pragmatic surgical solutions remain valid despite the advent of microsurgery. 相似文献

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Current knowledge suggests that, by applying evidence-based measures relating to the correct use of prophylactic antibiotics, perioperative normothermia, urinary tract catheterization and hand hygiene, important contributions can be made to reducing the risk of postoperative infections and device-related infections. The aim of this study was to explore and describe the application of intraoperative evidence-based measures, designed to reduce the risk of infection. In addition, we aimed to investigate whether the type of surgery, i.e. total joint arthroplasty compared with tibia and femur/hip fracture surgery, affected the use of protective measures. METHOD: Data on the clinical application of evidence-based measures were collected structurally on site during 69 consecutively included operations involving fracture surgery (n = 35) and total joint arthroplasties (n = 34) using a pre-tested observation form. For observations in relation to hand disinfection, a modified version of the World Health Organization hand hygiene observation method was used. RESULTS: In all, only 29 patients (49%) of 59 received prophylaxis within the recommended time span. The differences in the timing of prophylactic antibiotics between total joint arthroplasty and fracture surgery were significant, i.e. a more accurate timing was implemented in patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty (p = 0.02). Eighteen (53%) of the patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty were actively treated with a forced-air warming system. The corresponding number for fracture surgery was 12 (34%) (p = 0.04).Observations of 254 opportunities for hand hygiene revealed an overall adherence rate of 10.3% to hand disinfection guidelines. CONCLUSIONS: The results showed that the utilization of evidence-based measures to reduce infections in clinical practice is not sufficient and there are unjustifiable differences in care depending on the type of surgery. The poor adherence to hand hygiene precautions in the operating room is a serious problem for patient safety and further studies should focus on resolving this problem. The WHO Safe Surgery checklist "time out" worked as an important reminder, but is not per se a guarantee of safety; it is the way we act in response to mistakes or lapses that finally matters. 相似文献

Silas Weir Mitchell discovered and treated causalgia, a condition most often encountered by hand surgeons. He is considered the father of neurology as well as an early pioneer in scientific medicine. He was also a psychiatrist, toxicologist, author, poet, and a celebrity in America and Europe. His many skills and interests led his contemporaries to consider him a genius on par with Benjamin Franklin. His contributions to medicine and particularly hand surgery continue to resonate today. 相似文献

Modern hand surgery in Thailand started after the end of World War II. It is divided into 4 phases. In the initial phase (1950-1965), the surgery of the hand was mainly performed by general surgeons. In 1965-1975, which was the second phase, many plastic surgeons and orthopaedic surgeons graduated from foreign countries and came back to Thailand. They played a vital role in the treatment of the surgery of the hand and set up hand units in many centers. They also contributed to the establishment of the “Thai Society for Surgery of the Hand,” which still continues to operate. In the third phase (1975-2000), there was a dramatic development of microsurgery because of the rapid economic expansion. There were many replantation, free tissue transfers, and brachial plexus surgeries in traffic and factory-related accidents. The first hand-fellow training program began in 1993. In the fourth phase (since 2000), the number of hand injuries from factory-related accidents began declining. But the injury from traffic accidents had been increasing both in severity and number. Moreover, the diseases of hand that relate to aging and degeneration had been on the rise. Thai hand surgeons have been using several state-of-the-art technologies such as arthroscopic and endoscopic surgery. They are continuing to invent innovations, generating international publications, and frequently being invited as speakers in foreign countries. 相似文献

STUDY DESIGN: Tetraplegic patients were tested for hand strength before and after hand surgery. They also answered questions about how they rated the results of surgery. OBJECTIVES: Presentation of the efficacy of reconstruction of hand raising, lateral grip, and cylindrical grip in the tetraplegic hand. SETTING: The study was conducted in the Werner Wicker Clinic, Bad Wildungen, Germany, from 1991 to 1998. METHODS: The results of reconstruction surgery performed on 23 tetraplegic hands, as reflected in lifting the hand (n=3), lateral grip (n=21), and cylindrical grip (n=14), are presented. In a follow-up study in 22 patients, their management of activities of daily living 34.1 months (9-51 months) after the surgery is compared with the preoperative situation. Subjective satisfaction levels were elicited for each of the 22 patients by means of a questionnaire. RESULTS: The gain in force corresponded to 893 g (150-1500 g) for cyclindrical grip and 488 g (100-1200 g) for lateral grip, while they were able to develop grade 4 force for lifting the hand. After the operation 28 aids/appliances that patients had formerly used regularly were no longer necessary. There were 75 separate activities listed in the questionnaire, and on average the 22 patients were able to perform 8.7 (0-20) more of these. Most patients (19) said they would advise others to have the operation and 18, that they would have the operation again. There were 12 complications in nine patients. CONCLUSION: Reconstructive surgery on the hands of tetraplegic patients leads to gains in both cylindrical grip and lateral grip force and to increased manual dexterity. Patient satisfaction with the procedure is high. 相似文献

William Darrach popularized subperiosteal resection of the distal ulna for distal radioulnar joint dysfunction, a procedure also known as the Darrach procedure. He was also a major contributor to academic surgery and medical education, publishing at least 70 articles, most on the treatment of fractures. He was influential in organized medicine and served as Dean of the Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons, Governor and Regent of the American College of Surgeons, President of the American Surgical Association, and President of the Association of the American Medical Colleges. His contributions to education, hand surgery, and fracture treatment methodology make him an important figure in medicine. 相似文献

With a remarkable improvement in the pharmacotherapy of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), severely handicapped patients are very rare to see. Healing, repair and drug-free, and toward radical cure are coming to be possible. In the clinical practice, more than 50% of the patients are in remission. However, some patients are still difficult to reach remission due to comorbidities and economic burden. In the patient with clinical remission, smoldering synovitis so called “silent destructor” is often detected by ultrasonograpy or by synovial histology in the small joints of the hand. In recent years, over use with “no pain” increases the risk of deformity, osteoarthrosis, tendon rupture and entrapment neuropathy. Highly motivated patients, who concern about the appearance of the hand, hope to get a higher level of activities of daily living and quality of life (QOL).A prospective cohort study was performed for the purpose of knowing whether rheumatoid hand surgery affects the patient's QOL and mental health as well as upper extremity function. A primary hand surgery was scheduled in 119 patients with RA. Synovectomy and Darrach procedure, radiolunate arthrodesis, reconstruction of the extensor tendons, arthroplasty at the metacarpophalangeal (MP) using Swanson implant, fusion at the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint, suspensionplasty at the carpometacarpal (CM) joint of the thumb (Thompson method) et al. were performed. As a result, Japanese version of the Stanford Health Assessment Questionnaire (J-HAQ:physical function,QOL), EuroQOL-5 dimension (EQ-5D:QOL), Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II:depression, mentality) at 6 months and at 12 months after surgery improved significantly compared to those just before surgery (p < 0.01). Disease activity score 28- C reactive protein 4 (DAS28-CRP (4)) decreased significantly (p < 0.01).Latest hand surgery with tight medical control is possible to raise QOL and to provide mental wellness for the patient with RA. 相似文献

To gain insight into the management of patients with hand and wrist injuries, a series of clinical and psychological analyses was performed on 9 surgeons, each of whom underwent operative fixation of a hand or wrist fracture. The results of these analyses suggest that the functional outcome after hand surgery was affected by the surgeons' personality, motivation, and ability to accept and adapt to the injury; the nature of the injury; and the importance of the hand to the surgeons' careers. Surgeons are highly motivated and compulsive individuals who consider their career involvement a major source of identity and self-worth. Most returned to their operative duties ahead of the schedule set by their hand surgeons (average, 25 days after surgery), regarded their injuries as a positive challenge, and changed their lifestyles after injury to protect their hands. 相似文献

This study reviews hand surgical activity and the resources available for provision of hand surgery in England in 2001. Operation rates for three common procedures, viz. carpal tunnel release, Dupuytren's surgery and ganglion surgery, were considered. The local population and the number of hand surgeons in each NHS Hospital Trust were compared. We identified 275 consultant surgeons with an interest in hand surgery working in the NHS in England. Approximately two-thirds were orthopaedic surgeons, almost one-third were plastic surgeons and a small number were accident and emergency surgeons. Half of all hand surgeons worked in large units, with three or more hand surgeons, but almost 20% of hand surgery was delivered in hospitals in which there was no surgeon with a declared interest in hand surgery. Surgery rates for Dupuytren's contracture varied from 0.04 to 0.36 cases per 1,000 population per annum and for carpal tunnel syndrome varied from 0.25 to 1.31 cases per 1,000 per annum. We found a correlation between rates of surgery and the number of hand surgeons, locally. A recent audit (Burke, Dias, Heras-Pelou, Bradley, & Wildin, 2004. Providing care for hand disorders, a reappraisal of need. Journal of Hand Surgery, 29B: 575-579.) has suggested that one hand surgeon is required to meet the needs of a population of 125,000, with a national requirement for 393 hand surgeons. We conclude that there are insufficient hand surgeons in England and believe that the wide local variations in hand surgery rates are indicative of a significant unmet demand for hand surgery in the English population. 相似文献

Alloarthroplasty has largely replaced traditional procedures in arthrosis of hip and knee joints. In contrast the role of alloarthroplasty in comparison to traditional procedures in hand surgery has been uncertain. To evaluate this question every registered hand surgery department (n=307) in Germany received a questionnaire requesting information on number and type of implanted prostheses and traditional procedures concerning the wrist joint, distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ), first carpometacarpal joint (CMC), metacarpal phalangeal joint (MP), interphalangeal joint (PIP), and preferred characteristics of the prostheses. Of the 307 hand surgery departments, 150 (57% of the hospitals and 42% of the visiting surgeons) participated in the inquiry. Per year, only 98 wrist prostheses were implanted (distributed among five different models) but 1534 traditional procedures were performed. The Sauvé-Kapandji procedure was the most popular for the DRUJ and was performed 264 times per year. In comparison 24 hemiarthroplasties were implanted at the DRUJ. Trapezectomy remains the standard procedure for arthrosis of the first CMC joint (n=1399). The future importance of alloarthroplasty of the CMC joint is doubted by the majority of participating hand surgeons (90.3%). In contrast the majority (85.3/71.8%) is convinced that alloarthroplasty will be of importance for the MCP and PIP joints, respectively. Currently, the number of implanted prostheses is close to the number of traditional procedures performed at the MP joint. Irrespective of the joint involved, cementless anchorage is preferred as is the surface replacement anatomical design. The results confirm that alloarthroplasty in hand surgery is of minor importance. Thus, the role of alloarthroplasty differs depending on the joint involved. Traditional procedures except for the MP joint continue to be of major importance in hand surgery. 相似文献

IntroductionPatient reported outcome measures are central to National Health Service quality of care assessments. This study investigated the benefit of elective hand surgery by the simultaneous analysis of pain, function and appearance, using a three-dimensional (3D) graphical model for evaluating and presenting outcome.MethodsA total of 188 patients scheduled for surgery completed pre- and postoperative questionnaires grading the severity of their pain, dysfunction and deformity of their hand(s). Scores were plotted on a 3D graph to demonstrate the degree of ‘normalisation’ following surgery.ResultsSurgical groups included: nerve compression (n=53), Dupuytren’s disease (n=51), trigger finger (n=20), ganglion (n=17) or other lump (n=21), trapeziometacarpal joint osteoarthritis (n=10), rheumatoid disease (n=5) and other pathology (n=13). A significant improvement towards normality was seen after surgery in each group except for patients with rheumatoid disease.ConclusionsThis study provides a simple, visual representation of hand surgery outcome by plotting patient scores for pain, function and appearance simultaneously on a 3D graph. 相似文献

An axillary brachial plexus nerve block by a transarterial approach is commonly used to achieve regional anaesthesia for hand surgery. We designed a retrospective study to evaluate efficacy and safety of the technique for acute and elective operations. Anaesthetic records of 189 of all 5520 patients (1996-2000) who had axillary brachial plexus blocks for hand surgery were reviewed, and results compared with complications recorded in the anaesthetic register and in the hand surgery records. Successful axillary block was achieved in 5128/5520 (93%) of patients, according to anaesthetic charts, and primarily in 157/189 (83%), and after supplementation in 171/189 (90%), according to anaesthetic records. Four patients had a toxic drug reaction or axillary haematoma with a transient neurological deficit. Medical complications were recorded in the anaesthetic register in less than 0.7% of axillary brachial plexus procedures. Axillary brachial plexus block by a transarterial approach is effective and safe in hand surgery. 相似文献
