USA Plastics Surgeons Named Top Surgeons in Louisville Magazine

USA Plastic Surgeons Drs. Terry McCurry and Bradon Wilhelmi were named Top Surgeons in their field by their peers, according to a Louisville Magazine survey. The results were published in the magazine’s August edition. The Top Surgeons were selected by a survey that was mailed in May 2010 to all physicians who are members of the Greater Louisville Medical Society. In the survey, Louisville Magazine asked the question: “If you or a member of your family needed surgery, who among Louisville-area physicians would you choose or recommend most highly to perform the following procedures?”

Children and Lawn Mowers: A Dangerous Combination

Summer mornings often are filled with the sounds of lawns being mowed. What they should not be filled with are trips to the emergency room for devastating injuries caused by lawn mowers. Last year 247,000 people were treated for lawn mower-related injuries; 18,000 of them children under age 19.

Lawn mower injuries often include deep cuts, loss of fingers and toes, limb amputations, broken and dislocated bones, burns, and eye injuries. Many lawn mower-related injuries require a team of physicians from various specialties – plastic surgery, microsurgery, maxillofacial surgery, pediatrics, and orthopedics – to properly repair them. Often, patients must endure painful reconstructive operations for months, sometimes years, to restore form and function.

Most are caused by careless use and can be prevented by following a few simple safety tips:

• Children should never be passengers on ride-on mowers.
• Always wear sturdy shoes while mowing – not sandals.
• Young children should be at a safe distance from the area you are mowing.
• Pick up stones, toys and debris from the lawn to prevent injuries from flying objects.
• Always wear eye and hearing protection.
• Use a mower with a control that stops it from moving forward if the handle is released.
• Never pull backward or mow in reverse unless absolutely necessary – carefully look for others behind you when you do.

Enjoy your summer and stay safe!
