Öğe Diclofenac and metamizol in postoperative analgesia in plastic surgery(2001) Saray, Aydın; Büyükkoçak, Ünase; Cinel, İsmail; Tellioglu, Ali Teoman; Oral, UğurBackground: Postoperative pain relief after major surgery cannot be achieved with opioids alone in all patients without respiratory depression or other significant drawbacks. Modern medical practice, therefore, dictates the use of alternative analgesic agents as an adjunct or substitute to minimize the deleterious effects and to facilitate an earlier return to work and daily activities. Diclofenac and metamizol inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, thus attenuate the peripheral nociceptive sensitization caused by the surgical trauma. This investigation was conducted to determine the potency of diclofenac compared with metamizol in the control of postoperative pain after various plastic surgical operations under general anesthesia. Methods: A multiple-dose, randomized, double-blind clinical trial composed of one hundred and sixty-six patients was conducted. Group M patients received 1 g intramuscular metamizol (every 8 hours) and Group D patients received 75 mg intramuscular diclofenac (every 12 hours). Additional analgesia requirements were recorded and meperidine was used as the complementary analgesic when needed. Plain was assessed by visual analogue scores. Platelet count and bleeding time analyses were performed preoperatively and on the first postoperative day. Results: Metamizol decreased the additional analgesia requirement during the 18 hours following surgery. This was also associated with significantly lower pain scores. There was no significant difference between the patients receiving either metamizol or diclofenac in terms of pain scores, additional request for analgesia and frequency of side effects from the 18th until the 48th hour postoperatively. However, the use of diclofenac was associated with reduced side effects, though a reduction in platelet number and prolongation of bleeding time was noted in the majority of the patients receiving diclofenac. Conclusions: Metamizol is significantly superior to diclofenac for the reduction of postoperative pain after plastic surgery in the first 18 hours after plastic surgery procedures and reduces the need for additional analgesia.Öğe Effects of some pharmacological agents on the survival of unipedicled venous flaps: An experimental study(2001) Askar, İbrahim; Saray, Aydın; Gürlek, Ali; Sevin, Kutlu; Sabuncuoğlu, Bizden T.Clinical and experimental studies have been conducted to improve the survival of venous flaps. As a result of these studies, although various survival mechanisms were raised, none obtained satisfactory information. Venous stasis, and the resultant venous thrombosis, is a factor that decreases the survival of venous flaps. In this study, we evaluated the effects of two antiinflammatory agents, etodolac and etofenamate, on the survival of unipedicled venous flaps. In this study, 35 male New Zealand white rabbits (3,500-4,000 g) (70 ears) were used. Perichondrocutaneous flaps, 3 × 4.5 cm in size, were designed and raised, keeping the central veins intact in the middle of venous flap. Central arteries and nerves were ligated and transected both proximally and distally, to prepare unipedicled venous flaps. A silicone sheet was placed between the cartilage tissue and flap, to prevent blood flow and revascularization beneath. The subjects were divided into seven groups, consisting of five rabbits (10 ears). In the negative control group (group I), the single vascular pedicle of venous flaps, central veins were ligated and flaps sutured into their own place as the composite graft. In the positive control group (group II), after venous flaps were prepared, normal saline, 0.2 mL, was given subcutaneously. In the first of five experimental groups (group III), unfractionated heparin (100 U/day) was given subcutaneously. In the second experimental group (group IV), etodolac (5 mg/kg/day) was given subcutaneously. In the third experimental group (group V), etophenamate (5 mg/kg/day) was given orally through a feeding tube. In the fourth experimental group (group VI), parnaparin (5 anti-Xa U/kg/day) was given subcutaneously. In the fifth experimental group (group VII), nadroparin (5 anti-Xa U/kg/day) was given subcutaneously, about 7 days postoperatively. At the eighth postoperative day, surviving areas of venous flaps were measured, and the results were evaluated by Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA and MannWhitney U-test (P < 0.05). Biopsies were also taken from the flaps for histological evaluation of border of necrotic tissue. Surviving areas of unipedicled venous flaps were larger in experimental groups than those in negative and positive control group (P < 0.05). However, comparison of the experimental groups demonstrated no statistically significant dierence (P > 0.05). We concluded that all pharmacological agents used in the experimental groups succeeded in increasing the survival of unipedicled venous flaps. Survival of the unipedicled venous flap was higher in venous flaps than that of composite graft, clearly showing the importance of the venous pedicle. © 2001 Wiley-Liss Inc.Öğe Reconstruction of proximal nasal defects with island composite nasal flaps(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2005) Tellioğlu, Ali Teoman; Tekdemir, İbrahim; Saray, Aydın; Eker, EsabilThere are few local nasal flap options for repair of proximal nasal defects. Absence of suitable donor sites and the large dimensions of the defects limit the use of local nasal flaps in this region. Regional paranasal flaps may not be suitable in these cases because of color, texture, and donor-site scars. The composite procerus muscle and nasal skin flap, which is vascularized by the dorsal nasal branch of the angular artery, can be a useful treatment modality for proximal nasal reconstruction. Seven patients were successfully treated using the composite nasal flaps. The maximal size of the defects was 2.4 cm. In one case, the composite nasal flap was readvanced to close a new defect resulting from reexcision. The composite nasal flap has several advantages in reconstruction of proximal nasal defects. Reconstruction is performed with the same tissue and the donor defect is closed primarily. The composite nasal flap can be moved in multiple directions and has great mobility to reach every point of the proximal part of the nose with axial blood supply. Furthermore, it can be easily readvanced without additional morbidity in case of reexcision.Öğe Repair of cartilage defects by using in vitro differentiated mesenchymal stem cells in vivo: Experimental study in rabbits.(Amer Soc Hematology, 2005) Ural, Ali U.; Saray, Aydın; Can, Belgin; Avcu, Ferit; Çavuşoğlu, Tarık; Canpolat, Ersin…
