Complex reconstructions in head and neck cancer surgery: decision making [PDF]
Defects in head and neck after tumor resection often provide significant functional and cosmetic deformity. The challenge for reconstruction is not only the aesthetic result, but the functional repair.

Medial sural artery perforator flap: a challenging free flap
BackgroundOral and extremity defect reconstruction can often require a flap that is thin, and traditionally, the radial forearm free flap has been used, however, this has significant donor site morbidity.

A theoretical study on a two-dimensional flap-type wavemaker [PDF]
A mathematical model for unidirectional wave generation explained in this study. The model consists of Laplace's equation in the semi-infinite two-dimensional water interior, dynamic and kinematic boundary conditions at the free surface, lateral boundary condition on the wavemaker, and fixed wall at the bottom.

Linear theory for single and double flap wavemakers [PDF]
In this paper, we are concerned with deterministic wave generation in a hydrodynamic laboratory. A linear wavemaker theory is developed based on the fully dispersive water wave equations. The governing field equation is the Laplace equation for potential flow with several boundary conditions: the dynamic and kinematic boundary condition at the free ...

Reconstruction of Partial Hypopharyngeal Defects following Total Laryngectomy:A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis [PDF]
Background: Various operative techniques exist to reconstruct partial hypopharyngeal defects following total laryngectomy. The current study aimed to investigate and compare complications and functional results following commonly used reconstructive ...

Donor-Site Morbidity Analysis of Thenar and Hypothenar Flap
Background For the small glabrous skin defect, Thenar and Hypothenar skin are useful donors and they have been used as a free flap. Because of similar skin characteristics, both flaps have same indications.

The Pedicled LICAP Flap Combined with a Free Abdominal Flap In Autologous Breast Reconstructions
Background:. Previous surgery or slim body configuration can limit the size of the available abdominal flap in autologous breast reconstruction. However, redundant skin and subcutaneous tissue lateral to the mastectomy site can be utilized as the ...

Salvage of failed free flaps used in head and neck reconstruction [PDF]
Free flap success rates are in excess of 95%. Vascular occlusion (thrombosis) remains the primary reason for flap loss, with venous thrombosis being more common than arterial occlusion. The majority of flap failures occur within the first 48 hours.
