Abstract:
Fournier's gangrene is remarkebly rare but severe, life threatening condition. Thanks to better earlz recongnition of disease in past few years, the percentage of patients which survive this condition is considerable, but consequence of this fact is large number of patients with defects of cutis and subcutis in perineal and scrotal reigions. Reconstruction of this defects is cimplicate and require helathy, well vascularised tissue from another anatomical region which is not involved in gangreneous process. Authors present two cases of reconstruciton of defects in perineal and scrotal regions. First case is large defect which is covered by transposition of musculus gracilis musculo-cutaneous flap. Second case is lesser defect which is enclosed by mobilisation of local skin flaps.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the procedure...
