Hand Plastic Surgery Procedures with Monmouth/Middlesex County NJ Plastic Surgeons
09-May-2012 | News-Press Release
Hand surgery procedures are usually performed to repair injured hands. These include injuries to the tendons, nerves, blood vessels, joints, as well as fractured bones, burns, cuts, and skin wounds. Modern techniques have greatly improved the surgeon’s ability to restore function and appearance, even in severe injuries. Among the techniques now used by hand surgeons are:
* Grafting – the transfer of skin, bone, nerves, or other tissue from a healthy part of the body to the injured part
* Flap surgery – moving the skin, along with its underlying fat, blood vessels, and muscle, from a healthy part of the body to the injured site
* Replantation or transplantation – restoring amputated fingers or hands using microsurgery, an extremely precise and delicate surgery performed under magnification
Some injuries may require several operations over an extended period of time. In many cases, surgery can restore a significant degree of feeling and function to injured hands, however, recovery may take months, and a period of hand therapy will most often be needed.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - The carpal tunnel is a passageway through the wrist carrying tendons and one of the hand’s major nerves. Pressure may build up within the tunnel because of disease (such as rheumatoid arthritis), injury, fluid retention during pregnancy, overuse, or repetitive motions. The resulting pressure on the nerve within the tunnel causes a tingling sensation in the hand, often accompanied by numbness, aching, and impaired hand function. This is known as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
Congenital Defects - Congenital deformities of the hand – that is, deformities a child is born with – can interfere with proper hand growth and cause significant problems in the use of the hand. Fortunately, with modern surgical techniques, most defects can be corrected at a very early age – in some cases during infancy, in others, at two or three years – allowing normal development and functioning of the hand.
Dupuytren's Contracture - Dupuytren’s contracture is a disorder of the skin and underlying tissue on the palm side of the hand. Thick, scar-like tissue forms under the skin of the palm and may extend into the fingers, pulling them toward the palm and restricting motion.
Rheumatoid Arthritis - Rheumatoid arthritis, an inflammation of the joints, is a disabling disease that can affect the appearance and the function of the hands and other parts of the body. Disabilities caused by rheumatoid arthritis can often be managed without surgery – for example, by wearing special splints or using hand therapy to strengthen weakened areas.
