MANAGEMENT OF STREETER’S DYSPLASIA OF LOWER LIMB BY MODIFIED TECHNIQUE OF SINGLE STAGE DOUBLE LAYER SUTURING

Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 35

Abstract

Congenital constriction bands are anomalous bands that encircle a digit or an extremity. Single-stage, circumferential excision with Z-plasty transposition flaps has been demonstrated to be an effective treatment for congenital constriction bands of the extremities. We report a case of congenital constriction bands in the lower limb of a child managed surgically by modified technique of circumferential subcutaneous fat advancement flaps and Z-plasties.
