Abstract Background Hemorrhoids are common. Hemorrhoidectomy should typically be offered to patients whose symptoms result from external hemorrhoids or combined internal and external hemorrhoids with prolapse (grades III/IV). However, none of the currently used surgical methods could be considered an ideal surgical option that is effective, safe, and painless. We hypothesized that a combination of Ruiyun procedure for hemorrhoids (RPH) and simplified Milligan–Morgan hemorrhoidectomy (sMMH) will increase the safety and effectiveness of surgical treatment hemorrhoids. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Ruiyun procedure for hemorrhoids combined simplified Milligan–Morgan hemorrhoidectomy with dentate line-sparing (RPH + sMMH) to treat grade III/IV hemorrhoid. Methods Total 452 patients with hemorrhoids of grade III/IV were retrospectively reviewed in China-Japan Friendship Hospital, 244 cases were assigned to RPH + sMMH group, and 208 cases in MMH group. The primary efficacy outcome was rate of curative at 3 month after operation, and the recurrence rate within 12 months post operation. Secondary efficacy outcomes included wound healing time, time required to resume normal work, constipation symptom, quality of life, and pain post operation was also evaluated. The safety outcome included postoperative complications. Results There were no differences between the two groups in demographic characteristics. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the curative rate. The recurrence rate after 12 months post operation in the RPH + sMMH (3.0%) was significantly lower than the sMMH group (7.8%) (P = 0.032). The wound healing time was significantly shorter in RPH + sMMH group than that in MMH group (P < 0.001). The time required to resume normal work in the RPH + sMMH group was significantly shorter than MMH group (P < 0.001). Compared with the MMH group, the RPH + sMMH therapy preserve better life quality and lower constipation symptom (all P < 0.05). Patients who underwent RPH + sMMH had significantly less postoperative pain than MMH therapy. The total rate of patients with postoperative complications in the RPH + sMMH group (8.6%) was significant lower than the MMH group (16.3%) (P = 0.012). Conclusion RPH + sMMH may more effective in treating patients with III/IV hemorrhoids, which indicated lower recurrence rate, lower postoperative complications and pain, shorter recovery and return to normal life.

Objective: To demonstrate that the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) enhances both the quality of healing and the time required for wound healing at a skin graft donor site. Methods: Patients who had dermo-epidermal skin grafts taken from the thigh area were included in a prospective, randomised clinical study. PRP was applied to one donor site and then covered with Vaseline-impregnated, open-weave gauze and gauze, while the contralateral donor site on the other thigh served as a control and was covered with the open-weave gauze and gauze without PRP. Results: A total of 24 patients took part in the study, of which three developed infections and were thus removed from the study. Use of PRP reduced the wound healing time of the dermo-epidermal graft donor sites by a mean 17.8% and median 18 days. On average, the treated donor sites healed in 14.9 days compared with 18.4 days for the control group. The median was 14 days compared with 18 days in the control group (p=0.026). In one patient, healing was slower on the side where PRP was applied. In 20 patients, healing of the donor site was accelerated where PRP was applied. Conclusion: The study demonstrated a beneficial effect of PRP, as healing time was shortened. Using PRP to heal wounds could be beneficial for patients for whom commonly available wound healing therapies have failed, as well as for high-risk patient groups for whom problematic wound healing may be expected.

Összefoglaló. Bevezetés: A sinus pilonidalis nehezen kezelhető, sok szövődménnyel és recidívával járó betegség. A legtöbb műtéti eljárás többnapos kórházi kezelést, munkából vagy iskolából való hiányzást követel. Célkitűzés: Munkánk célja, hogy a PEPSiT- (pediatric endoscopic pilonidal sinus treatment) műtétek eredményességét vizsgálja. Módszer: Intézetünkben 2019–2020-ban PEPSiT-műtéten átesett, 18 év alatti betegeket válogattunk be a vizsgálatba. Kizártuk a cisztoszkóppal operált és kontrollra nem jelentkező betegeket. A szövődmények, recidívák számát, a kórházi tartózkodás hosszát, a sebgyógyulás és a hétköznapi aktivitáshoz való visszatérés idejét vizsgáltuk. Eredmények: Betegeink többsége fiú (24 fiú, 4 lány), átlagéletkoruk 15,6 év volt. 28 betegen 31 PEPSiT-beavatkozást végeztünk (3 re-PEPSiT), 6 recidíva, 1 sebgennyedés alakult ki. A betegek egy része egynapos ellátás keretében, míg a többség egy éjszaka bentfekvés után tért haza (1,74 nap ápolási idő). A hétköznapi aktivitáshoz 1,37 nap után tértek vissza, a gyógyulási idő 5,9 hét volt átlagosan. Megbeszélés: A PEPSiT-beavatkozás minimálisan invazív lehetőség, igen rövid kórházi tartózkodással. A betegek hamar térnek vissza a szokott aktivitásukhoz, a korábbi sipolyon kívül újabb műtéti seb nem alakul ki. A recidívaarány hasonló az egyéb technikákéhoz. Következtetés: A PEPSiT-beavatkozás jól alkalmazható, a recidívaarány csökkentése fontos. Orv Hetil. 2021; 162(43): 1740–1743. Summary. Introduction: The treatment of pilonidal disease is often challenging, due to frequent recurrences and adverse events. Most operative treatments require a lengthy hospital stay, and absence from school or work. Objective: We aimed towards assessing the effectivity of PEPSiT (pediatric endoscopic pilonidal sinus treatment). Method: In this study, we included patients subjected to PEPSiT from 2019 to 2020 between ages 0–18 years. Patients operated via cystoscope and patients who did not attend follow-up examinations were excluded. Adverse events, recurrences, length of hospital stay, wound healing time and return to everyday activity were assessed. Results: The majority of our patients were male (24 male, 4 female), the mean age was 15.6 years. 31 PEPSiT operations were recorded on 28 patients (3 were redo surgeries). 6 recurrences and 1 wound suppuration were documented. Some patients were treated within the confines of one-day surgery, while most of them stayed one night (mean length of stay was 1.74 days). Return to everyday activity was an average 1.37 days, and mean wound healing time was 5.9 weeks. Discussion: PEPSiT is a minimally invasive operative approach with a very short hospital stay. Patients return to everyday activity faster. New operative scarring does not happen apart from the preexisting fistula opening. Recurrence rate is similar to that of other treatment techniques. Conclusion: PEPSiT technique is applicable, however, reduction of the recurrence rate is important. Orv Hetil. 2021; 162(43): 1740–1743.

ABSTRACT Objective: There are no specific criteria that define the level of amputation in diabetic patients. The objective of this study was to assess the influence of clinical and laboratory parameters in determining the level of amputation and the wound healing time. Methods: One hundred and thirty-nine diabetic patients were retrospectively assessed. They underwent surgical procedures due to infection and/or ischemic necrosis. Type of surgery, antibiotic use, laboratory parameters and length of hospital stay were evaluated in this study. Results: The most common amputation level was transmetatarsal, occurring in 26 patients (28.9%). The wound healing time increased with statistical significance in individuals undergoing debridement, who did not receive preoperative antibiotics and did not undergo vascular intervention. Higher levels of amputation were statistically related to limb ischemia, previous amputation and non-use of preoperative antibiotics. Conclusion: Patients with minor amputations undergo stump revision surgery more often, but the act of always targeting the most distal stump possible decreases energy expenditure while walking, allowing patients to achieve better quality of life. Risk factors for major amputations were ischemia and previous amputations. A protective factor was preoperative antibiotic therapy. Level of Evidence III, Retrospective Study.

The Relationship

Abstract Background: The incidence of frailty and chronic wounds increases with patients’ age. Knowledge of the relationship between frailty and wound healing progress is greatly lacking. Methods: The aim of this study is to characterize the degree of frailty in elderly patients attending a multidisciplinary wound care centers (MWCC). Additionally, we seek to assess the impact of frailty on the wound healing rate and wound healing time. An open cohort study was conducted on 51 consecutive patients aged > 70 years treated for wounds at an MWCC of an intermediate care hospital. The frailty score was determined according to the Frail-VIG index. Data were collected through patient questionnaires at the beginning of the study, and at six months or upon wound healing. Wounds were followed up every two weeks. To analyze the relationship between two variables was used the Chi-square test and Student’s or the ANOVA model. The t-test for paired data was used to analyze the evolution of the frailty index during follow-up.Results: A total of 51 consecutive patients were included (aged 81.1 ± 6.1 years). Frailty prevalence was 74.5% according to the Frail-VIG index (47.1% mildly frail, 19.6% moderately frail, and 7.8% severely frail). Wounds healed in 69.6% of cases at six months. The frailty index (FI) was higher in patients with non-healing wounds in comparison with patients with healing wounds (IF 0.31 ± 0.15 vs IF 0.24 ± 0.11, p=0.043). A strong correlation between FI and wound healing results was observed in patients with non-venous ulcers (FI 0.37 ± 0.13 vs FI 0.27 ± 0.10, p=0.015). However, no correlation was observed in patients with venous ulcers (FI 0.17 ± 0.09 vs FI 0.19 ± 0.09, p=0.637). Wound healing rate is statically significantly higher in non-frail patients (3,26% wound reduction/day, P25-P75 0.8-8.8%/day) in comparison with frail patients (8.9% wound reduction/day, P25-P75 3.34-18.3%/day; p=0.044). Conclusion: Frailty is prevalent in elderly patients treated at an MWCC. Frailty degree is correlated with wound healing results and wound healing time.

Purpose To determine if sex is associated with corneal epithelial wound healing time in patients with persistent corneal epithelial defects (PCEDs). Methods Retrospective case series on patients with PCED from November 2014 to January 2019. Records of 127 patients with diagnosis of PCED were reviewed. Patients with an epithelial defect that lasted more than two weeks in the absence of an active corneal infection were included. Main outcome was corneal epithelial wound healing time. Results 55 patients (29 males) with a mean age of 65.3 ± 16.5 years were included. No difference was found between female and male patients in terms of risk factors, age, treatment strategies or intervals between visits (median of 15 days in females and 12 days in males; p = 0.24). Median duration of the PCED was 51 days (IQR 32-130), with a median number of 5 clinical visits (IQR 4-8). Female patients had significantly longer healing times (p = 0.004) and a corresponding increase in the number of clinical visits (median of 7 visits vs. 5 clinical visits in males, p = 0.012). Conclusion Results from this study suggest female patients with PCED might have a longer corneal epithelial wound healing duration and may therefore require earlier intervention.

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of a new treatment method in healing superficial infected wounds compared with surgical debridement with chlorhexidine solution. Method: In this animal model, two wounds were created on the back of 10 male adult rabbits. Wounds treated by Method 1 were debrided using 0.02% chlorhexidine aqueous solution and an antibiotic topical ointment. Wounds treated by Method 2 wounds were treated using a newly developed device which enabled visual monitoring of the wound as it was treated with various pharmacological solutions (including antiseptic, antiseptic oxidant and an osmotically active agent) specifically formulated for each wound healing stage. Wound area size (using digital planimetry) and time taken to clean the wound were recorded, and biopsies were taken, at the beginning of the study and at various timepoints throughout. Result: It was observed that both wound cleaning and wound healing were accelerated by treatment with method 2 compared with method 1 (by 43.8% and 36.7%, respectively). There were also a significantly smaller number of complications in these wounds [p=0.0044] due to the positive ratios of neutrophils and fibroblasts in the wound cavities (from the third to the fourteenth day after wound modelling). Conclusion: Wounds treated with the new device in method 2 had a shorter wound healing time than wounds treated with a traditional method. The automated influx–outflow of solutions removed any fragments of necrotic tissue from the wound surface. Wounds were able to be monitored without the need to remove dressings. The transparent, airtight film, which allowed for wound monitoring without the need to remove dressings, meant that suturing was not required. This resulted in no complications in the wounds treated by this new method.
