Tendon Grafts

Tendon grafting is a key component of hand reconstructive procedures. Commercially produced tendon harvesters facilitate this grafting process but are not always available. We present an innovative technique that allows tendon harvest to be undertaken using equipment readily available in all hospitals. Only a scalpel blade and a plastic Yankauer suction tip are required. Two simple and rapid modifications are made to the suction tip using the blade prior to its use. The described tool has been conceived, refined and used successfully by the authors, without complications, and allows tendon harvest via the standard minimally invasive approach associated with a conventional harvester. Creating this improvised harvester is neither challenging nor time-consuming, and this cheap and effective substitute allows tendon grafts to be harvested using a minimal access approach in environments where a traditional harvester is not available, or not sterile.

Mitral Apparatus

In patients with functional mitral regurgitation, the placement of a sling encircling both papillary muscles in conjunction with mitral annuloplasty appears to be a rational approach for surgical correction, because it addresses both the mitral valve and the deformities of the subvalvular mitral apparatus. Reports in the literature that describe the utilization of this technique are few, and mainly involve a median sternotomy approach. The purpose of this communication is to describe the technical details of performing this procedure via a minimally invasive approach.
