C. APRIL 1971 UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE Foreword This report on the medical services at Morristown during the winter encampment of 1779-80 was undertaken to restudy and evaluate the subject in the light of the standard practices of the Continental Army Medical Department. One phase of the evaluation is to determine if the existence and location of the present replica of the so-called Tilton Hospital in the Jockey Hollow area can be justified historically. For interpretive purposes, the report reviews the organic structure of the medical or hospital department, identifies and describes health problems and diseases, and outlines the medical resources of the military surgeons to combat incident diseases and preserve the health of the soldiers. Research on the subject was conducted at the Library of Congress, the National Archives, Pennsylvania Historical Society, American Philosophical Society, the Library Company of Philadelphia and the Morristown NHP library. Several persons contributed to the completion of this study. As usual, Superintendent Stephen H. Lewis and Historians Bruce W. Steward and Diana F. Skiles provided splendid cooperation during my stay in the park; Leah S. Burt, Assistant Park Archivist, located Dr. Cochran's "LetterBook" in the Morristown Public Library. In the National Archives, the diligent efforts of Miss Marie Bouhnight, Office of Old Military Records, resulted in locating much-needed hospital returns of Valley Forge, Middlebrook and Morristown.

Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, Ormond Beach, USA Corresponding author: Eric Catlin, [email protected] Abstract To date, no case studies specifically describing a curved kyphoplasty needle becoming lodged in the vertebral body with the inability to be withdrawn have been reported. We describe a case involving a single level balloon kyphoplasty with a curved coaxial needle during which the cement delivery device could not be removed after cavity filling. In this case, a board-certified interventional pain management specialist was performing balloon kyphoplasty for an L2 osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture. The tools utilized in this procedure included flexible curved instruments designed to traverse the vertebral body and achieve uniform cement distribution through a unipedicular approach. Cannulation and cavity formation were completed without issue. Upon conclusion of cement filling, the curved cement delivery device was unable to be removed. After several attempts to remove the needle and consultation with both the device company and local spine surgeons, it was agreed that the device should be cut at the level of entry into the pedicle and left as a retained foreign object.

  • Evolution of Instruments for Harvest of the Skin Grafts Original Article
    Original Article Evolution of instruments for harvest of the skin grafts Faisal Ameer, Arun Kumar Singh1, Sandeep Kumar2 Department of Plastic Surgery, Lala Lajpat Rai Memorial Medical College, Meerut, 1Department of Plastic Surgery, King George’s Medical University, Lucknow, UP, India. 2All Indian Institute of Medical Sciences Saket Nagar, Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India Address for correspondence: Dr. Faisal Ameer, L-20, Lala Lajpat Rai Memorial Medical College Campus, Meerut - 250 004, UP, India. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Background: The harvest of autologous skin graft is considered to be a fundamental skill of the plastic surgeon. The objective of this article is to provide an interesting account of the development of skin grafting instruments as we use them today in various plastic surgical procedures. Materials and Methods: The authors present the chronological evolution and modifications of the skin grafting knife, including those contributions not often cited in the literature, using articles sourced from MEDLINE, ancient manuscripts, original quotes, techniques and illustrations. Results: This article traces the evolution of instrumentation for harvest of skin grafts from free hand techniques to precise modern automated methods. Conclusions: Although skin grafting is one of the basic techniques used in reconstructive surgery yet harvest of a uniform graft of desired thickness poses a challenge. This article is dedicated to innovators who have devoted their lives and work to the advancement of the field of plastic surgery. KEY WORDS Dermatomes; split-thickness skin graft; skin grafting knives INTRODUCTION a piece of skin whose thickness is controlled by a calibrated setting on the instrument or by the surgeon himself.

  • A Narrative Review of the History of Skin Grafting in Burn Care
    medicina Review A Narrative Review of the History of Skin Grafting in Burn Care Deepak K. Ozhathil *, Michael W. Tay, Steven E. Wolf and Ludwik K. Branski Department of Surgery, University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Galveston, TX 77550, USA; [email protected] (M.W.T.); [email protected] (S.E.W.); [email protected] (L.K.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-508-654-8246 Abstract: Thermal injuries have been a phenomenon intertwined with the human condition since the dawn of our species. Autologous skin translocation, also known as skin grafting, has played an important role in burn wound management and has a rich history of its own. In fact, some of the oldest known medical texts describe ancient methods of skin translocation. In this article, we examine how skin grafting has evolved from its origins of necessity in the ancient world to the well-calibrated tool utilized in modern medicine. The popularity of skin grafting has ebbed and flowed multiple times throughout history, often suppressed for cultural, religious, pseudo-scientific, or anecdotal reasons. It was not until the 1800s, that skin grafting was widely accepted as a safe and effective treatment for wound management, and shortly thereafter for burn injuries. In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries skin grafting advanced considerably, accelerated by exponential medical progress and the occurrence of man-made disasters and global warfare. The introduction of surgical instruments specifically designed for skin grafting gave surgeons more control over the depth and consistency of harvested tissues, vastly improving outcomes. The invention of powered surgical instruments, such as the electric dermatome, reduced technical barriers for many surgeons, allowing the practice of skin grafting to be extended ubiquitously from a small group of technically gifted reconstructive surgeons Citation: Ozhathil, D.K.; Tay, M.W.; to nearly all interested sub-specialists.
