    Aesthetic reconstruction of large scalp defects by sequential tissue expansion without interval
    (Springer, 2004) Gürlek, A; Alaybeyoglu, N; Demir, CY; Aydogan, H; Bilen, BT; Öztürk, A
    Tissue expansion is indicated in the reconstruction of various scalp defects when there is inadequate adjacent tissue to allow either primary closure of the defect or repair with a local flap. It is the most important armamentarium for aesthetic hair-bearing scalp reconstruction in cases of congenital or required defects. This technique was used sequentially without interval to achieve scalp reconstruction for 12 patients with a defect ranging from 30% to 75% of the scalp (average, 55%). For 12 patients, 32 expansion treatments were undertaken between September 1997 and January 2002. The 12 patients included 3 women, 4 men, and 5 children with a mean age of 20 years (range, 45 days to 36 years). All patients had more than one period of treatment. The most common conditions treated were burns (n = 7). trauma (n = 1), congenital naevi (n = 2), and male pattern baldness (n = 2). Reconstruction of 12 large scalp defects has been performed with a 3.1% rate of major complications. Results show that tissue expansion is a safe and efficient but time-consuming technique for aesthetic scalp reconstruction, especially in the case of sideburn scenario or large defects. There was no significant alteration in ratio of complications although tissue expansions were made sequentially.

    The continuing scourge of congenital syphilis in 21st century: A case report
    (Elsevier Ireland Ltd, 2005) Gurlek, A; Alaybeyoglu, NY; Demir, CY; Aydogan, H; Coban, K; Fariz, A; Arslan, A
    Although the rate of congenital syphilis is declining in developed countries, a significant increase has been observed in the underdeveloped countries. Unfortunately, little concern is raised about the increasing numbers of babies born with congenital syphilis. The procedure to prevent congenital syphilis through antenatal screening and treatment is well established. But implementation of effective programs has proved very difficult especially in resource - poor settings. Congenital syphilis, if not treated promptly and adequately, may result in significant physical and emotional squeal in children. A case of complicated late congenital syphilis is reported in order to emphasize that syphilis is still present nowadays, and re-emerging many countries even some of the industrialized ones. Most of the cases can not be prevented by routine antenatal screening. Thus it is essential to develop strategies to prevent sexually transmitted disease from being a hidden and neglected problem.

    Severe constricting ring syndrome: Case report
    (Thieme Medical Publ Inc, 2000) Tercan, M; Esenkaya, I; Demir, CY
    This report presents a case of a male newborn with a severe circumferential amniotic band, treated by single-stage excision of the ring, and microvascular venous anastomosis between the proximal and distal parts of the affected site. No complications were encountered. A microsurgical approach to improve the circulation may be useful in some cases.

    A transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap for reconstruction of a large deformity in the buttock
    (Taylor & Francis As, 2005) Gürlek, A; Demir, CY; Askar, I; Aydogan, H; Alaybeyoglu, N; Coban, K
    A rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap has been used to repair the abdominal wall, chest wall, sternum, breast, and groin. We describe a patient in whom a large deformity in the buttock caused by a road crash was repaired with a transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap. Distally-based TRAM flaps provide a good and reliable way of reconstructing the buttock. Its advantages are a long arc of rotation and well-vascularised bulky tissue that serve as a partition and promote quick healing of the defect. However, the flap is not the first choice for traumatic and infected wounds where fatty tissue is not desired.
