Anthrax is a zoonotic disease caused by a bacterium called Bacillus Anthracis. In humans, it causes a cutaneous, gastro-intestinal and inhalation form of disease. The in-cutaneous form progresses along with skin necrosis and oedema. Since the necroses in the skin are not quite superficial, they can affect the tendon sheaths progressing close to the skin. Therefore, in surgical treatment, the closure in the areas where tendons are surfaced must be provided by a flap instead of a graft.The repair on the existing patient was performed with a graft since the flap repair was not accepted, and thus, restrictions in hand movements occurred during the post-operative period.
炭疽是一种由炭疽杆菌引起的人畜共患病。在人类中,它会导致皮肤型、胃肠型和吸入型疾病。皮肤型会随着皮肤坏死和水肿而发展。由于皮肤中的坏死并非非常表浅,它们会影响靠近皮肤的腱鞘。因此,在手术治疗中,肌腱外露区域的闭合必须采用皮瓣而非植皮。由于皮瓣修复未被接受,对现有患者进行了植皮修复,因此术后手部活动出现了受限情况。
