Botulinum toxin for the treatment of temporomandibular joint disk disfigurement: Clinical experience
Karacalar, A; Yilmaz, N; Bilgici, A; Bas, B; Akan, H (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2005)Type A botulinum toxin was used for the treatment of symptoms of 26 patients (40 joints) with temporomandibular joint disk disfigurement. In all patients, 0.5 ml (12.5 U) was injected into the lateral pterygoid muscle. The ... -
Compensatory brow asymmetry: Anatomic study and clinical experience
Karacalar, A; Korkmaz, A; Kale, A; Kopuz, C (Springer, 2005)To obtain detailed information about the interdigitation between the frontalis muscle and the orbicularis oculi muscle, the authors performed an anatomic study involving 9 cadavers (17 specimens). Three types of interdigitation ... -
Delay in neurovenous flaps - Experimental and clinical experience
Karacalar, A; Idil, O; Demir, A; Guneren, E; Simsek, T; Ozcan, M (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2004)The objective of this study was to examine the effects of the standard surgical delay in the flaps based on the cutaneous branches of the vascular axis around a superficial sensory nerve. The delay procedure was experimentally ... -
The effect of twisting on perforator flap viability - An experimental study in rats
Demir, A; Acar, M; Yildiz, L; Karacalar, A (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2006)Perforator flaps increasingly find acceptance and use in the field of reconstructive surgery due to their decreased donor-site morbidity and increased like-tissue coverage. Nevertheless, they are more prone to vascular ... -
Free rectus abdominis muscle flap with plantar skin graft - A combined method of aesthetic and functional reconstruction of the heel
Karacalar, A; Ozbek, S; Ozcan, M (Informa Healthcare, 2004)A 16-year-old girl presented with a contusion of the left calcaneus that was treated by combined free rectus abdominis muscle flap and plantar skin graft. The main advantages of this procedure are that it replaces ... -
Hair transplantation and headaches

Longitudinally-split radial forearm flap
Karacalar, A; Ozcan, M (Informa Healthcare, 2005)We have applied the split flap concept to a distally-pedicled radial forearm flap to cover separate dorsal defects of the fingers in two cases. The rationale is that there are the vascular plexuses inside and around the ... -
No-touch technique for autologous fat harvesting
Karacalar, A; Orak, I; Kaplan, S; Yildirim, S (Springer, 2004)A new technique for autologous fat harvesting is presented. It is termed the "no-touch" technique because the concentrated fat graft is obtained with no handling of fatty tissue. With the no-touch technique, fat aspiration ... -
Oblique scapular flap
Karacalar, A; Simsek, T; Cepni, H (Informa Healthcare, 2006)We report an axial transposition flap based on the anterior branch of the descending branch of the circumflex scapular artery. This has some advantages, including a hidden donor site, easy transfer with no abnormalities, ... -
A pedicle-lengthening technique for free latissimus dorsi muscle flaps: the "Y-V-I" principle
Karacalar, A; Demir, A; Guneren, E (Thieme Medical Publ Inc, 2005)This article describes a pedicle-lengthening procedure (the Y-V-I principle) that reverts a Y-shaped vascular structure into an I-shaped vascular structure, and its application to the latissimus dorsi muscle. If the Y-shaped ... -
A perichondrial flap for functional purposes in rhinoplasty
Karacalar, A; Korkmaz, A; Icten, N (Springer, 2005)Recent trends in rhinoplasty techniques have focused on anatomic repair as well as respect and preservation of soft tissue integrity. In this article, the authors describe the use of a perichondrial flap, then discuss ... -
Preemptive analgesia and a field block technique in reduction mammaplasty

Proximally pedicled musculocutaneous anterior interosseous flap for cubital fossa reconstruction
Karacalar, A; Sen, C; Engin, S; Ozcan, M (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2004)Based on preexisting anatomic studies and our experience related to the upper extremity flaps, a proximally pedicled anterior interosseous flap was developed and used in I patient for the reconstruction of skin defect of ... -
Spontaneous recanalization of the divided lactiferous duct in the rat
Karacalar, A; Orak, I; Aydyn, O; Yalin, T (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2005)The objectives of the current study were to test the hypotheses that ductus lactiferous may regenerate after its transection and to develop a reproducible model for future studies. A total of 168 nipples from 14 Wistar ... -
Subcision surgery for the correction of ear deformities
Karacalar, A; Demir, A; Yildiz, L (Springer, 2004)The authors report the application of subcision surgery to ear deformities for crosscutting and weakening of the deformed cartilage. The subcision techniques for correction of a deformed cartilage are divided into two ... -
