Publication Open Access Double-Layer Reconstruction of the Achilles- Tendon Using a Modified Lindholm-s Technique and Vascularized Fascia Lata(2018-04-01T00:00:00Z) Kelahmetoglu, OSMAN; Gules, Mustafa Ekrem; Elmadag, Nuh Mehmet; Ergun, Selma Sonmez; Guneren, Ethem; KELAHMETOĞLU, OSMAN; GÜNEREN, ETHEM; ERGÜN, SELMALoss of the Achilles- tendon with overlying soft tissue and skin defects remains a complex reconstructive challenge. Herein we present our experience using a free composite anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap with vascularized fascia lata and a modified Lindholm-s technique to repair the Achilles- tendon. A 37-year-old man suffered from tertiary Achilles- tendon rupture. For reconstruction, the free composite ALT flap with vascularized fascia lata was used to wrap Achilles- tendon. A modified Lindholm-s technique was used to cover overlying soft tissue defects. The patient was followed up for 12 months. No wound healing problems were reported, and the patient was able to walk and return to his daily ambulating activities without any support after 5 months postoperatively. This technique may be useful to achieve satisfactory outcomes in patients with ruptured Achilles- tendons following tertiary repair.Publication Open Access A simple concept for covering pressure sores: wound edge-based propeller perforator flap.(2017-12-01T00:00:00Z) Kelahmetoglu, OSMAN; Guneren, E; Van, Landuyt; Yagmur, C; Sommeling, CE; Keles, MK; Tayfur, V; Simsek, T; Demirtas, Y; KELAHMETOĞLU, OSMAN; GÜNEREN, ETHEMPublication Open Access Embedding Exposed Subcutaneous Venous Ports in the Pectoral Muscle: A Practical and Stable Technique for Coverage(2017-04-01) Kelahmetoglu, OSMAN; Demir, Ahmet; Yagmur, Caglayan; DEMIRTAS, Yener; Guneren, ETHEM; KELAHMETOĞLU, OSMAN; GÜNEREN, ETHEMObjective: The aim of this study was to present our experience in embedding exposed subcutaneous venous ports in the pectoral muscle.
