(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2006) Etöz, Abdullah; Kahveci, Ramazan; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Plastik Rekonstrüktif ve Estetik Cerrahi Anabilim Dalı.
Bu klinik çalışmada, Uludağ Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi, Plastik Rekonstrüktif ve Estetik Cerrahi Kliniği’nde, kırk beş diyabetik ayak hastası üzerinde, negatif basınçlı pansuman (NBP) tedavisinin etkisi karşılaştırmalı olarak değerlendirildi. Olgular iki gruba ayrıldı. Gruplardan ilkine NBP uygulanmak üzere planlama yapılırken, ikinci gruba ise standart uygulanan ıslak gazlı bez ile günlük pansuman yapıldı. Her iki grupta da yara debridmanı sonrasında tedaviye başlanarak yara cerrahi olarak örtüm için uygun hale gelinceye dek pansuman tedavilerine devam edildi. Her iki grup arasında başlangıç değerlerinde istatistiksel anlamlılıkta bir fark yok iken, NBP’nın %21,90 oranında yara alanını azaltığı, kontrol grubunda ise bu oranın %10,82 olduğu saptandı (p<0,005). Uygun debridman, enfeksiyon kontrolü, yeterli kan akımı ve ihtiyaca uygun cerrahi örtümün sağlanması diyabetik ayak tedavisinin başarılı olması için gerekli anahtar noktalardır. NBP uygulaması ile bu yaraların mevcut iyileşmesinin hızlandırılması ve eğer gerekiyorsa daha kolay ve az invazif yöntemlerle yara örtümü cerrahisinin yapılabilir olması sağlanmaktadır. Sonuç olarak diyabetik ayak tedavisinde NBP, yara iyileşmesini hızlandıran, granülasyon ve yara kontraksiyonunu artıran, yarayı cerrahiye hazırlayan faydalı bir yöntem olarak değerlendirildi.
Effects of repetitive injections of hyaluronic acid on peritendinous adhesions after flexor tendon repair: A preliminary randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial
(Turkish Assoc Trauma Emergency Surgery, 2012-01) Etöz, Abdullah; Özgenel, Güzin Yeşim; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Plastik Rekonstrüktif ve Estetik Cerrahi Anabilim Dalı/El Cerrahisi Bölümü.; 0000-0003-0000-8355; AAH-4233-2021; 6701823106
The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of three injections of hyaluronic acid (HA) versus placebo (saline) over a two-week period on functional outcomes after zone-II flexor tendon repairs. METHODS Twenty-two patients with isolated zone-II flexor tendon injury of the index fingers were included in this study. Before tenorrhaphy, fingers were randomly divided into two groups; 11 were treated with three injections of HA around the tenorrhaphy site and 11 served as a placebo group and were treated with saline in the same way. The first dose was given at the time of tenorrhaphy and two additional doses were given at one-week intervals. A Kleinert rehabilitation protocol was employed postoperatively. Range of motion was assessed with total active and passive movement evaluation systems at 3 weeks, 3 months and long-term. Functional outcome was evaluated using the Strickland classification. RESULTS There were no differences between the two groups in terms of range of motion at 3 weeks. However, at 3 months and long-term, a significant improvement was observed in fingers treated with HA compared to placebo. CONCLUSION This preliminary placebo-controlled study suggests that repetitive injections of HA can improve clinical outcomes presumably due to the effect on decreasing adhesions in primary tendon repairs.

Nasal shapes and related differences in nostril forms: A morphometric analysis in young adults
(Lippıncott Williams & Wilkins, 2008-09) Etöz, Betül Cam; Ercan, İlker; Etöz, Abdullah; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Rekonstrüktif Cerrahi Devlet Hastanesi/Fizyoloji Anabilim Dalı.; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Biyoistatistik Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-2382-290X; 56427863700; 6602256586; 6603789069
Being aware of the morphologic differences in the nasal anatomy between men and women during the cosmetic rhinoplasty is essential because feminiza-tion of a male nose is not a very rare complication. Although there is no difference in the techniques of male and female rhinoplasty, the anthropometric differences have to be considered. This morphometric study evaluated the nasal shapes in both sexes and the related differences in the nostril forms. The nostril forms were separated into 4 main groups such as teardrop, heart shaped, round, and triangular. In this landmark-based morphometric study, significant relations of nostril forms to the nasal shape, frontonasal, and nasolabial angles were found. The results of this study should make us think about these relations of nostril forms to the nasal shapes and should be a basement for further clinical studies enhancing the plans of the corrective surgery.

(Lippincott Williams, 2006-01) Etöz, Abdullah; Tuncel, Umut; Özcan, Murat; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Plastik ve Rekonstrüktif Cerrahi Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0001-5029-2927; P-3185-2015; 6602256586; 6602652531; 7102067678
Parotid duct injuries represent a small percentage of overall facial trauma. It is reported that they are not thoroughly inspected, so that a high number of parotid duct injuries are undiagnosed.1 Awareness of such an injury can help avoid serious complications, some of which are difficult to treat. Also, trauma to the parotid duct usually involves adjacent structures, especially the facial nerve. Surgical exploration is necessary but not adequate for clarifying the existence of parotid duct injury alone. Balloon angioplasty catheters, polyethylene, and intravenous catheters are used to identify and cannulate the parotid duct after injury.2–4 An embolectomy catheter is described for use as a guide for parotid duct examination and repair. It can also be used as a temporary intraduct stent during the postoperative period.

Preventing flap necrosis with adrenomedullin and glucagon-like peptide-1
(H M P Communications, 2012-02) Etöz, Abdullah; Etöz, Betül Çam; Büyükcoşkun, Naciye İşbil; Özlük, Kasım; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Fizyoloji Anabilim Dalı.; AAH-1692-2021; 56427863700; 6603128152; 6602676331
Many factors are known to play a role in flap necrosis, such as inadequate blood flow and disturbed venous drainage, which lead to decreased flap nutrition and necrosis. The aim of this study was to determine whether adrenomedullin (ADM) and glucagon-like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) administered at various doses directly to the superficial inferior epigastric artery (SIEA) had an effect on the normal healing process of flap tissue. Methods. Under 3% isoflurane anesthesia, the rats were put in the dorsal decubitus position before the surgery. A cutaneous flap 8 cm x 3 cm in size was marked on the abdominal wall, divided into four equal sections, and marked from 1 to 4 (proximal to distal). A laser Doppler flowmeter was used to measure the blood supply of each area in the flap tissue. On the seventh postoperative day, an image of the final condition of the flap was obtained with a 5-megapixel camera; the rats were sacrificed afterward. Results. Groups treated with ADM or GLP-1 showed a statistically significant increase in the blood flow of the four separate regions compared to the saline group. The percent necrosis area decreased in a statistically significant manner in the groups treated with ADM and GLP-I. Conclusion. The authors believe that both peptides play an important role in the normal flap recovery process.
Skin necrosis caused by prilocaine: A case report
(H M P Communications, 2005-03) Aytaç, Selçuk; Etöz, Abdullah; Akın, Selçuk; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Plastik ve Rekonstruktif Cerrahi Anabilim Dalı.; 8956755700; 8350090000; 7005263372
Prilocaine (Citanest (R), AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals, Wilmington, Del) is a commonly used agent in infiltrative anesthesia, and its adverse effects are well known. The authors report a full-thickness skin necrosis after using prilocaine as a local anesthetic that resulted in a flop closure. To the authors' knowledge, there have been no previously described cases of skin necrosis after use of the local anesthetic prilocaine. Possible adverse reactions to preservatives that are added to local anesthetics in pharmaceutical preparations may play a role in skin necrosis secondary to prilocaine usage. Multifactorial adverse effects may cause unexpected reactions with the use of prilocaine, a safe and frequently used pharmaceutical.
The use of negative pressure wound therapy on diabetic foot ulcers: A preliminary controlled trial
(H M P Communications, 2004-08) Etöz, Abdullah; Özgenel, Yeşim; Özcan, Murat; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Plastik ve Rekonstrüktif Cerrahi Anabilim Dalı.
The purpose of this clinical study was to investigate the effects of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) on the healing of diabetic foot ulcers and to compare this dressing with traditional moist gauze dressing as a treatment used prior to other wound closure techniques, such as flaps or grafts. Twenty-four diabetic patients were randomly divided into two groups: NPWT group and control group. Initially, the mean surface area of the diabetic wounds was 109cm(2) in the NPWT group and 94.8cm(2) in the control group. The mean duration of wound care (until the wounds were covered with granulation tissue) was 11.25 days in the NPWT group and 15.75 in the control group (p=0.05); following NPWT or moist guaze dressing, the mean surface area of the wounds was 88.6cm(2) in NPWT group and 85.3 cm(2) in control group (p<0.05). In conclusion, the use of NPWT may be an alternative therapy to achieve a faster granulating wound bed in diabetic foot ulcers in order to prepare the wound bed for other closure techniques. Further studies are needed to clarify effects and indications and to modify the technique of this treatment for nonhealing wounds.
