“…Im chirurgischen Management des am häufigsten vorkommenden Dekubitalulkus-im Sakralbereich haben sich für relativ kleine Defekte verschiedene lokale Lappen, wie kutane, fasziokutane [7,9,22,41] und myokutane [4,27,32] Lappen, etabliert. Das Verwenden des M. glutaeus maximus bzw.…”

“…Also, suture anchors have been used to fix pedicle flaps to the sacrum after resection of sacral pressure sores [9][10][11] and in surgical treatment of decubital ulcers [12,13]. Our literature search, however, failed to identify any study describing the use of this particular type of suture anchors -mini Mitek® Dean et al were the first to describe the use of a similar type of Mitek® bone anchors to fix the muscles of the floor of the mouth (FOM) to the mandible after the mandibularlingual-releasing approach to oral and oropharyngeal cancers but, in their experience, there was no need for surgical reconstruction by free flaps [14].…”

“…There are different types of gluteus flaps, which can be based on the method of transfer of the flap-such as island flaps, V-Y plasty, rotational flaps-and they can be based on the types of tissue included, such as fasciocutaneous flaps or myocutaneous flaps. Although their results are well evaluated in the literature [5][6][7][8], to the author's knowledge there is a paucity of studies comparing fasciocutaneous flaps to myocutaneous flaps in treating sacral sores. We performed a cohort study of thirty-eight clinical cases to compare gluteal fasciocutaneous rotational flaps and myocutaneous flaps in treating sacral sores.…”

To compare the outcomes of gluteal fasciocutaneous rotational flaps and myocutaneous flaps in the treatment of sacral sores, together with a review of surgical complications in two matched cohorts. Thirty-eight patients (18 gluteal fasciocutaneous rotational flaps and 20 myocutaneous flaps) were reviewed retrospectively at a mean follow-up of 58 weeks. The rate of healing of the sore, the sore healing time, and the incidence of surgical complications, together with rate of recurrence, were obtained by chart review. Treatment groups were matched by patient characteristics, operative time and blood loss. The rate of healing of the sore, sore healing time and complication rate were comparable in the two groups but the rate of recurrence was lower to a statistically significant extent in myocutaneous flap patients. The authors suggest that both methods are comparable, good and safe in treating sacral sores; myocutaneous flaps are more durable.Résumé Comparer l'issue de deux types de lambeaux de rotation prélevés à partir de muscles fessiers-facio-cutanés ou myo-cutanés-dans le traitement des escarres sacrales, avec une examination des complications chirurgicales chez deux cohortes de patients. Trente-huit patients (18 lambeaux de rotation fessiers facio-cutanés et 20 myo-cutanés), ont été revus de façon prospective après un suivi moyen de 58 semaines. Ceci a permis d'obtenir un score de guérison de l'escarre, ainsi que le temps de guérison, et d'apprécier également les complications chirurgicales et la proportion de réapparition. Les groupes de traitement ont été répartis en fonction des caractéristiques des patients, du temps opér-atoire et de la perte sanguine. L'évaluation de la guérison de l'escarre, ainsi que le temps de guérison et la proportion des complications ont été comparables entre les deux groupes, mais la proportion de réapparition est inférieure de façon statistiquement significative chez les patients ayant bénéficié d'un lambeau myo-cutané. les auteurs pensent que les deux méthodes sont comparables. Tous les deux donnent un bon résultat avec sécurité dans le traitement des escarres sacrales, mais le lambeau myo-cutané semble plus durable que le lambeau facio-cutané.
