Abstract
|
|
|
No matter how various methods may be tried, for scar repair of extremities, the results were not so acceptable unfortunately. Of these procedures, Millard´s trick (The Double-Breasted Vest Principle) is the one of most popular methods and which has been loved by many surgeons, esp. plastic surgeons, up to date.
However, even this method couldn´t satisfied us, because of undesirable disadventages, and our new repair method, entitled "Modified Millard´s Trick Method" was designed with supplement of disadventages of Millard´s Trick in mind and has been used in attempt to prevent recurrence of the usual spread.
This approach is advocated for scars in area where stretch-ing is usual or where a careful regular repair has failed to prevent it. If there is any depression associated with the scar, this is corrected simultaneously by advancing both skin flaps in opposite direction.
We have tried this new method for 10 cases of patients, esp. for relatively wide linear scar (over 5cm) on extremities.
