Abstract
Modern tissue engineering has made substantial advancements that have revolutionized plastic surgery. Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) is an example that has gained considerable attention recently. ADM can be made from humans, bovines, or porcine tissues. ADM acts as a scaffold that incorporates into the recipient tissue. It is gradually infiltrated by fibroblasts and vascularized. Fortunately, many techniques have been used to remove cellular and antigenic components from ADM to minimize immune system rejection. ADM is made of collagen, fibronectin, elastin, laminin, glycosaminoglycans, and hyaluronic acid. It is used in critical wounds (e.g., diabetic wounds) to protect soft tissue and accelerate wound healing. It is also used in implant-based breast reconstruction surgery to improve aesthetic outcomes and reduce capsule contracture risk. ADM has also gained attention in abdominal and chest wall defects. Some studies have shown that ADM is associated with less erosion and infection in abdominal hernias than synthetic meshes. However, its higher cost prevents it from being commonly used in hernia repair. Also, using ADM in tendon repair (e.g., Achilles tendon) has been associated with increased stability and reduced rejection rate. Despite its advantages, ADM might result in complications such as hematoma, seroma, necrosis, and infection. Moreover, ADM is expensive, making it an unsuitable option for many patients. Finally, the literature on ADM is insufficient, and more research on the results of ADM usage in surgeries is needed. This article aims to review the literature regarding the application, Benefits, and costs of ADM in reconstructive surgery.

Implantation of Acellular Dermal Matrix to Prevent Frontotemporal Depression Following Minipterional Craniotomy for the Surgical Clipping of Unruptured Intracranial Aneurysms. World Neurosurg 2022; 166:e11-e22. [PMID: 35569746 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2022.05.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2022] [Revised: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of the study was to assess the esthetic efficacy of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) implantation to prevent frontotemporal depression (FTD) following minipterional craniotomy (MPT) to clip unruptured intracranial aneurysms. METHODS We retrospectively compared the incidence of FTD in 100 patients treated without ADM from March to July 2019 and 100 patients treated with ADM from August to December 2019. ADM was implanted in the interfascial layer to cover the temporalis muscle. The specific location and degree of FTD were analyzed by measuring the thickness and area of multiple points (P1-P12) and regions (S1-S3) through brain computed tomography preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively. RESULTS In the non-ADM group, the thickness at P1, P2, P5, P6, and P9 was reduced and the area of S1 and S2 was smaller after surgery than before surgery (P < 0.05), similar to the incision and suture site of the temporalis muscle. However, in the ADM group, the preoperative and postoperative measurements were not different. FTD recognition was significantly lower in the ADM group (6.0%) than that in the non-ADM group (17.0%) (P = 0.015) and occurred in the retroorbital region through P1, P2, P5, and P6, with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves of 0.840, 0.766, 0.811, and 0.751, respectively. ADM implantation was the only significant predictive factor for FTD recognition in multivariate logistic regression analysis (odds ratio = 0.30; 95% confidence interval: 0.11-0.79; P = 0.015). CONCLUSIONS Even MPT cannot completely prevent FTD in the retroorbital region. ADM implantation in MPT can help to improve esthetic satisfaction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of acellular dermal matrix (ADM) use in reducing Frey syndrome (FS) rates in patients postparotidectomy. STUDY DESIGN We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of existing literature comparing rates of FS with and without ADM use. RESULTS Eight studies were shortlisted for qualitative study, of which 7 compared rates of FS with and without the use of ADM. A total of 211 patients underwent parotidectomy with the use of ADM. Of these, mean patient age was 44.7 (SD ± 7.2); 89 of 159 were pleomorphic adenoma (55.9%), 29 of 159 with histological diagoses stated were Warthin's tumor (18.2%), and 159 of 211 were other histologic diagnoses (25.7%). Subjective and objective incidence rates for FS were 23 of 211 (10.9%) and 7 of 211 (3.3%), respectively. Patients in whom ADM barriers were used had significantly lower rates of subjective and objective FS (relative risk = 0.22; 95% confidence interval, 0.09-0.57; P = .002; and relative risk = 0.07; 95% confidence interval, 0.07-0.33; P < .001), respectively, compared to patients with no ADM. CONCLUSION The use of ADM was associated with lower FS rates compared to no ADM and should be considered in routine use to prevent this condition.

A three-in-one alveolar process reconstruction protocol for maxillary molar sites with severe residual bone height deficiency: A proof-of-concept pilot study. Clin Implant Dent Relat Res 2022; 24:414-423. [PMID: 35557025 DOI: 10.1111/cid.13096] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2022] [Revised: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Implant placement in maxillary molar sites with severe height deficiency often requires multiple surgeries, which was time-consuming, invasive, and subject to serious postoperative complications. PURPOSE To introduce and assess a three-in-one technique (extraction, alveolar ridge preservation [ARP], and sinus elevation) for augmenting deficiency maxillary molar alveolar ridges. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fourteen patients with severe posterior maxillary ridge height deficiency underwent extraction, sinus elevation via an intrasocket window and ARP using sticky bone and then covered with acellular dermal matrix (ADM). Primary closure was intentionally not obtained. Cone-beam computed tomography and periapical radiography were used to measure dimensional ridge changes over time. Bone biopsies were taken at implant placement 7-21 months after surgery, which proceeded without additional grafting. Peri-implant soft tissue was assessed after 8-12 months of functional loading. RESULTS Maxillary molar sites (13 first molars, 1 second molar) with a mean sinus floor height of 1.73 ± 0.86 mm and mean buccal plate thickness of 1.62 ± 1.15 mm were elevated and grafted. Immediately after surgery, the mean sinus floor height was 14.03 ± 1.97 mm and the alveolar thickness at virtual implant platform level was 12.99 ± 1.88 mm. After 5-9 months healing, those measurements decreased by 2.45 ± 1.73 mm (p = 0.000) and 3.88 ± 3.95 mm (p = 0.006), respectively. Healed ridges were composed of 18.74% ± 4.34% mean vital bone and 19.08% ± 9.10% mean residual graft. After 8-12 months of functional loading, the peri-implant tissue appeared healthy, and there was a mean marginal bone loss of 0.12 ± 0.11 mm. CONCLUSIONS For maxillary first molar sites with severe sinus floor height deficiency, this minimally invasive three-in-one treatment allows for uncomplicated implant placement and short-term functional stability.

Abstract
Introduction: Pulsatile tinnitus (PT) can be very distressing for the patient. An identifiable abnormality is rarely detected. Dural AV malformation is responsible for arterial PT. Venous PT has rarely been attributed to an obvious abnormality on venogram. Dehiscent high jugular bulb or sigmoid sinus have been thought to be potential cause for venous PT. Ligation of internal jugular vein (IJV) has been advocated as a definitive surgical treatment. To our knowledge the use of acellular dermal matrix for treatment of venous PT has not been reported previously. Objectives: To share our experience of a successful treatment of PT using acellular dermis. Methodology: Case report and literature review. Case description: A 23-year-old Caucasian female presented with right-sided PT of 9 months duration. All clinical and audiological investigations were normal. MRI brain and internal auditory canals was normal but the CT scan showed a high right jugular bulb. It also showed dehiscence of the right sigmoid plate with herniation of sigmoid sinus into the mastoid. She underwent transmastoid correction of dehiscent sigmoid sinus and jugular bulb. Acellular dermis was used for extra luminal packing of mastoid cavity and hypotympanum. The patient made a good post-operative recovery and reported resolution of tinnitus on recovering from anaesthesia. The patient was discharged home the following day. There were no sequelae from surgery. The patient has remained symptom-free 11 years following her treatment. Conclusion: The surgical goal of dehiscent sigmoid sinus correction can be accomplished with acellular dermis packing. Traditionally ligation of the IJV or rigid correction of herniated sinus has been recommended; however, we have demonstrated that a relatively thick pliable acellular dermis is more than adequate to correct herniation of the sigmoid venous sinus.

Abstract
Background Parotidectomy is the primary treatment for parotid gland tumors. However, complications may include a prominent facial scar or infra-auricular depressed deformity, Frey's syndrome, first bite syndrome, or other facial pain, numbness, and paralysis. Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) has been widely used to prevent these complications in parotid surgery, but there have been no prospective, multi-center trials documenting its efficacy. This study evaluates the effectiveness of ADM implantation in preventing infra-auricular depressed deformity, Frey's syndrome and first bite syndrome after parotidectomy. Methods We analyzed 51 cases of standard parotidectomy and 58 cases of parotidectomy with implantation of Megaderm™ ADM through prospective multicenter trial. Acute complications including infection, seroma, hematoma, skin necrosis, and acute parotid area pain were evaluated 1 week postoperatively. Clinician grading of Frey's syndrome and blinded clinician evaluation of infra-auricular depressed deformities were conducted at 3, 6, and 12 months. Patients evaluated subjective satisfaction with neck appearance, Frey's syndrome quality, and acute parotid area pain at 3, 6, and 12 months. Results There was a higher incidence of seroma in the Megaderm™ group than in the control group at week 1. The incidence and total clinician-evaluated Frey's syndrome scores were significantly lower in the Megaderm™ group than in the control group at 3, 6, and 12 months. Both the objective and subjective evaluations of the facial contour showed a better outcome in the Megaderm™ group compared to the control group at 3, 6, and 12 months. There were no significant differences between the groups in the patient-reported Frey's syndrome quality scores at 3, 6, and 12 months, but the Megaderm™ group reported significantly less acute pain than the control group. Conclusions ADM implantation can effectively reduce the occurrence of Frey's syndrome, infra-auricular depressed deformity, and first bite syndrome after parotidectomy. ADM may be especially advantageous in complex parotidectomy cases when significant complications are expected.

Abstract
Objective Burr hole trephination is a common treatment for chronic subdural hematoma, intracranial hematoma, and intraventricular hematoma due to its effective drainage of hematoma, minimal invasiveness and short operation time. However, cosmetic complications such as scalp depression can occur. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of an allogenic acellular dermal matrix (ADM) to prevent scalp depression at the burr hole site. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed with 75 cases in 66 patients who were treated with burr hole trephination from January 2018 to December 2019. These cases divided into 2 groups; based on the method used to cover the burr hole site: Gelfoam packing only (GPO) and ADM. The degree of the scalp depression was measured from the more recent follow-up brain computed tomography scan. Results There was a significant difference in the degree of scalp depression between GPO and ADM groups (p=0.003). No significant correlation between patient's age and the degree of scalp depression (GPO: p=0.419, ADM: p=0.790). There were no wound infection complication in either group. Conclusion ADM is a suitable material to prevent scalp depression after burr hole trephination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cryptotia is a congenital anomaly in which the upper part of the retroauricular sulcus is absent and buried underneath the temporal skin. Various surgical techniques have been reported for the correction of cryptotia following Kubo's V-Y plasty in 1933. Conventional methods using a local skin flap, skin grafting, tissue expansion, Z-plasty, and any of these combined approaches can result in skin deficiency of the upper auricle. The aim of this study was to develop a new method that improves cosmetic results and has fewer complications. METHODS This study involved four patients in whom five cryptotia deformities were corrected using V-Y plasty and Z-plasty. After elevation of the flap, acellular dermal matrix (ADM; MegaDerm) that was over 5 mm in thickness was applied to the cephalo-auricular angle and positioned to enhance the projection of the ear. Lastly, the flap was transposed to complete the repair. RESULTS Between January 2014 and February 2018, cryptotia correction with ADM graft was performed in four patients. None of the patients developed a recurrence of cryptotia, and there were no postoperative complications such as wound infection, seroma formation, and dehiscence. In addition, the procedures resulted in a favorable cosmetic appearance. CONCLUSION Based on these findings, i.e., no recurrence and a favorable cosmetic result, when using an ADM graft, it is suggested that this technique could be an alternative method of cryptotia correction. It could also lessen donor-site morbidity when compared to autologous cartilage grafting and be more cost-effective than using cartilage from a cadaver.
