Öğe Comparison of the Fistula Risk Associated With Rotation Palatoplasty and Conventional Palatoplasty for Cleft Palate Repair(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2014) Kahraman, Ahmet; Yuce, Serdar; Kocak, Omer Faruk; Canbaz, Yasin; Guner, Sukriye Ilkay; Atik, Bekir; Isik, DaghanThe aims of the cleft palate repair techniques are to reduce the velopharyngeal insufficiency risk and oronasal fistula development to minimal levels without affecting the maxillofacial development. In this article, we present a retrospective study comparing the conventional palatoplasty techniques with the new technique of rotation palatoplasty for the risk of development of oronasal fistula. Materials and Methods: Of the 100 patients who were operated on because of cleft palate between the years 2002 and 2008, 12 patients had Furlow palatoplasty, and 88 patients received the Veau-Wardill-Kilner (V-Y pushback) operation (group C). A total of 67 patients who were operated on between 2008 and 2011 had rotation palatoplasty (group R). Results: One hundred patients were men, and 67 were women. Among all the patient groups, 22.8% were classified as Veau 1, 24.6% were classified as Veau 2, 37.1% were classified as Veau 3, and 15.6% were classified as Veau 4. The rate of fistula was found to be 17.7% in all patients. Fistula development was found in 6% of the patients in group R (4/67) and in 18% of the patients in group C (18/100). The difference between group R and group C regarding the number of patients who developed fistula was statistically significant (P = 0.011). Conclusions: The Veau classification of the cleft palate affects the risk of fistula development, and the risk for fistula after rotation palatoplasty is lower than that associated with the V-Y pushback technique.Öğe Congenital Lateral Cleft Palate of Unknown Etiology(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2015) Kahraman, Ahmet; Yuce, Serdar; Kocak, Omer Faruk; Canbaz, Yasin; Isik, DaghanThe term cleft palate (CP) refers to midline defects extending from the prealveolar ark to the uvula, and these defects present with varying degrees. CP may be complete, incomplete, unilateral, bilateral, or submucosal. It is often observed with cleft lip (CL). In various studies, the incidence of isolated CP has been reported as 1.3 to 25.3 per 1000 births. 1,2 As a result of deterioration of the anatomical structure of the palate, illnesses such as regurgitation, respiratory tract infections, otitis, and speech disorders may occur. These defects are often observed in the midline and are rarely laterally localized. Cleft palates with lateral localization are outside the natural midline cleft closure line and cause clinical complaints similar to other types of CP. Two cases of laterally localized CP have previously been published in the literature. 3,4 The case presented here is the third known case to be reported.Öğe Groin Flap Experience in the Reconstruction of Soft Tissue Defects of the Hand(Medknow Publications & Media Pvt Ltd, 2016) Yuce, Serdar; Oksuz, Mustafa; Ersoz, Muhammet Eren; Kocak, Omer Faruk; Kahraman, Ahmet; Isik, Daghan; Atik, BekirObjective: Pediculated groin flap has been playing an important role in hand reconstructive surgery for a long time. In this study, the cases where pediculated groin flap in the reconstruction of soft tissue defects of the hand was used are presented in terms of literature. Material and Methods: The cases included in the study where a groin flap was used for hand defects between 2010 and 2014 in the Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery Department. The age, gender, reason of defect, its localization, groin flap size, donor area closure method, flap separation time, other treatments, and complications were thoroughly examined. Results: Twenty-two groin flaps were used in 13 male and 7 females. It was used to close the amputated part in 8 patients as a result of finger amputation and degloving injury, in 3 patients as a result of hand and finger crush defect, in 1 patient as a result of burn finger defect, in 5 patients for extension contracture, and in 3 patients for flexion contracture due to burn sequel. Flap loss was not recorded in any of the cases. Conclusion: Pediculated groin flap is a good alternative that can be easily and safely used in suitable cases and has an important place in the reconstruction of hand defects.Öğe INVESTIGATION OF SKIN CANCER IN THE GERIATRIC AGE GROUP(Gunes Kitabevi Ltd Sti, 2014) Yuce, Serdar; Oksuz, Mustafa; Ersoz, Muhammed Eren; Kahraman, Ahmet; Isik, Daghan; Atik, BekirIntroduction: With the increase in lifespan, age related diseases including cancer also increase. With this in mind, in our study we evaluated treatment methods and results of patients who were older than age 65 and operated for skin cancer in the Plastic Surgery Clinic. Material and Method: Patients older than age 65 who were operated between 2010 and 2014 for skin cancer in the Department of Plastic Surgery were included in our study. Age, gender, diagnosis, localization, operation, lymph node dissection and additional treatments were analysed. Results: 91 geriatric patients with skin cancer were detected. The average age of patients was 74.4 years. 47 (51.65%) patients were female; 44 patients (48.35 %) were male. With respect to diagnosis, 58 (63.74%) had basal cell carcinoma, 27 (29.67%) had squamous cell carcinoma, and in 6 (6.59%) patients cutaneous melanoma was detected. A review of surgical operations showed that 22 (24.17%) patients had lesion excision + primary suturation, 19 (20.88%) had lesion excision + graft repair, 48 (52.75%) had lesion excision + local flap repair, and 2 (2.20%) had amputation. Conclusion: In recent years, skin cancer, especially the incidence and mortality of cutaneous melanoma, has been seen more frequently in elders, compared to younger patients. In health controls, the mortality of skin cancer may be reduced by taking into account the geriatric age group.Öğe Reconstruction of the Tibia with a Bipedicle Fibular Flap(Medknow Publications & Media Pvt Ltd, 2016) Kahraman, Ahmet; Yuce, Serdar; Tekin, Hakan; Canbaz, Yasin; Sultanoglu, YilmazTibial defects can be caused by trauma, congenital, osteomyelitis, or cancers. The tibia is the main bone for bearing the body. It is a big bone, and the difficulty of the reconstruction of tibia is importance to repair it. The fibular bone is a good provider for repairing the tibia defects. Generally, the repair was planned be a free vascularized flap. The most important disadvantage is the low calibration. In early age in particular, the original thickness of the tibia is reached after the surgery with a good follow-up process and rehabilitation. In this case; a 22-year-old female patient had a multi-part post-traumatic fracture of the left tibia and was administered to our plastic surgery inpatient clinic. The bone defect was reconstructed with a bipedicle fibular flap taken from the same leg. The fibula was embedded into the medulla with a screw plate, and fixation was applied with an external fixator. Wherefore the loss of skin, skin flap of fibula bottomed of perforators was not used. A vascularized anterolateral thigh flap, which was obtained from the other leg, was used to reconstruct the skin defect. One year after surgery, the bone viability was perfect. The integrity of the skeleton was created without shortening the leg. The rehabilitation of the patient was continued for repowering and resizing the fibula up to tibia. In this case report, we wanted to share our experience for repairing the tibia defect with using a bipedicle fibular flap.Öğe Technical Details Concerning Myomucosal Advancement Method in the Repair of Large Lower Lip Defects(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2014) Yuce, Serdar; Kahraman, Ahmet; Hosnuter, Mubin; Isik, DaghanThe most important decision that a surgeon has to make in large lower lip defect reconstruction is whether to use a free flap or local flap. Despite efficient transplantation, serious cosmetic problems can occur in total or in near-total lower lip reconstruction with a free flap. On the other hand, better cosmetic results can be brought about in reconstructions with local flaps when a repair is made in tissues with similar properties in terms of color, thickness, or pilosity. However, functional problems such as microstomy can be encountered when inefficient transplantation is carried out during local flap repairs. If a repair technique with local flap that enables efficient transplantation can be applied, satisfactory cosmetic as well as functional results can be provided. In this text, the technical details of the myomucosal advancement flap method, which is a successful functional local flap application with good cosmetic results, were reported and explained with the help of schematic drawings.Öğe Technical Details of Rotation Palatoplasty in Patients With Veau 1 Cleft Palate(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2014) Yuce, Serdar; Kahraman, Ahmet; Isik, DaghanIn cleft palate repair, elongation of the cleft toward the posterior is critically important to prevent velopharyngeal insufficiency. The purpose of many cleft palate repair techniques has been to ensure this elongation. Rotational palatoplasty is a recent cleft palate repair technique. In this technique, the soft palate is transformed into a rotational flap to allow the palate to elongate in patients with a cleft palate. This technique, which is used in all types of cleft palate and velopharyngeal insufficiency, is easy to use, practical, and efficient, especially in patients with a Veau 1 cleft palate. The aim of this study was to explain the technical details of the rotation palatoplasty technique in Veau 1 cleft palate with the aid of figures.Öğe Use with Tissue Expander Face, Scalp and Neck Reconstruction(Modestum Ltd, 2015) Yuce, Serdar; Oksuz, Mustafa; Ersoz, Muhammet Eren; Kahraman, Ahmet; Isik, Daghan; Atik, BekirThe tissue expander has found widespread use in reconstructive surgery. The donor area is needed, the recipient site with similar characteristics (color, thickness, hair follicle) features, minimal scarring and leads to donor site morbidity. In our study, presented face, scalp and neck reconstruction results obtained with the use of expander. The face, scalp and neck areas expander was used to evaluate patients in the Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Department of Yuzuncu Yil University. Age, gender, expander indication, defect or scar area localization, expander residential area, expander shape, volume, valve location (internal-external), expansion time, major and minor complications were reviewed. 30 number expanders were used in 17 patients (8 male, 9 female patients). Expanders were used burn sequelae in 14 patients, tumor-related defects in 2 patients and due to giant hairy nevus in 1 patient. The expanders are scalp (19 cases), face (3 cases), supraclaviculer (7 cases) and the neck (1 case) has to be placed. In 4 of 17 patients (three major and one minor) complications were encountered. Use the expander is a good option especially in the reconstruction of soft tissue defects in the head and neck region.
