Development of a Reflectance Photoplethysmographic Sensor used for the Assessment of Free Flap Perfusion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Monitoring of free flap perfusion and early identification of flap failure is an indispensable prerequisite for flap salvage. Although many methods of free flap monitoring are available, there is still no single reliable continuous non-invasive perfusion

Postoperative Free-Flap Monitoring Techniques

open access: yesSeminars in Plastic Surgery, 2019
Free tissue transfer is commonly employed in the reconstruction of large or complicated defects. Postoperative flap failure from microvascular compromise is an uncommon but major potential complication of this procedure.

Modified incision design for submental flap: an excellent design method for the reconstruction of a defect after head and neck tumor resection. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: The usage of submental flap is a good method for head and neck reconstruction, but it has some risk also, such as anatomical variations and surgical errors.

Dna2p Helicase/Nuclease Is a Tracking Protein, Like FEN1, for Flap Cleavage during Okazaki Fragment Maturation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
During cellular DNA replication the lagging strand is generated as discontinuous segments called Okazaki fragments. Each contains an initiator RNA primer that is removed prior to joining of the strands.

Perioperative Care of Free Flap Patients

open access: yesSeminars in Plastic Surgery, 2019
Microvascular free tissue transfer is an indispensable reconstructive option in head and neck reconstruction. Flap failure is relatively rare, but it is nonetheless very morbid and psychologically devastating to patients when it does occur.

Evidence of nutritional vascular formation from the “nutrient flap” in a patient with no-option chronic limb-threatening ischemia: An indocyanine green fluorescence imaging study

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2022
The concept of a “nutrient flap,” in which ischemic tissue is nourished by a transferred well-perfused flap, has been advocated for use since the early days of free flap procedures.

Free Flap Reconstruction of the Maxilla

open access: yesSeminars in Plastic Surgery, 2019
Tumors of the maxilla and midface are some of the most difficult to manage, not only in terms of treatment but also in terms of achieving acceptable orofacial reconstruction. Today, free flaps dominate the reconstructive field.

Breast Reconstruction with Microvascular MS-TRAM and DIEP Flaps [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Plastic Surgery, 2012
The free muscle-sparing transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (MS-TRAM) and deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flaps involve transferring skin and subcutaneous tissue from the lower abdominal area and have many features that make them well ...

The axillary approach to raising the latissimus dorsi free flap for facial re-animation: a descriptive surgical technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The latissimus dorsi flap is popular due to the versatile nature of its applications. When used as a pedicled flap it provides a robust solution when soft tissue coverage is required following breast, thoracic and head and neck surgery.
