Abdominal, perineal, and genital soft tissue reconstruction with pedicled anterolateral thigh perforator flaps [PDF]

, 2021
Background Pedicled perforator flaps have become a contemporary alternative to muscle flaps for soft tissue reconstruction as they have reduced donor site morbidity, avoid the need for microsurgical transfer, and are versatile and reliable.

A Model of Free Tissue Transfer: The Rat Epigastric Free Flap [PDF]

Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2017
Free tissue transfer has been increasingly used in clinical practice since the 1970s, allowing reconstruction of complex and otherwise untreatable defects resulting from tumor extirpation, trauma, infections, malformations or burns. Free flaps are particularly useful for reconstructing highly complex anatomical regions, like those of the head and neck,

Perioperative optimization of Crohn's disease

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 10-26, January 2023., 2023
Most Crohn's disease patients require surgery during the course of their illness, especially those who experience complications. The management of perioperative medications and surgery‐related decision‐making should be individualized and patient‐centered based on a multidisciplinary approach.

Possibility of management of lower leg war burns with free flaps [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2003
Free flaps are used in the surgical treatment of burns for wound closure where the burn is too deep, and in case, when after necrotic tissue excision, the bones, tendons, nerves, and blood vessels remain bare.

Simulated assessment of light transport through ischaemic skin flaps [PDF]

, 2022
Currently, free flaps and pedicled flaps are assessed for reperfusion in post-operative care using colour, capillary refill, temperature, texture and Doppler signal (if available). While these techniques are effective, they are prone to error due to their qualitative nature.

An Aerial–Aquatic Hitchhiking Robot with Remora‐Inspired Tactile Sensors and Thrust Vectoring Units

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView., 2023
An untethered aerial–aquatic hitchhiking robot that can be remotely controlled for flying, swimming, and transiting air–water boundaries rapidly (0.16 s), is presented. Notably, it can autonomously attach to various surfaces in both air and water environments using a remora‐inspired suction disc with flexible tactile sensors.

Arterial or venous free flaps for volar tissue defects of the proximal interphalangeal joint: A comparison of surgical outcomes

Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2020
Background For volar soft tissue defects of the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint, free flaps are technically challenging, but have more esthetic and functional advantages than local or distant flaps. In this study, we compared the long-term surgical

Chromosomal breaks at the origin of small tandem DNA duplications

BioEssays, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Small tandem DNA duplications form a specific mutational signature frequently found in human disease alleles and cancer genes. Here we hypothesize that these duplications mainly arise at chromosomal DNA breaks that result from two closely located single‐stranded nicks, through error‐prone repair by the non‐homologous end‐joining pathway. Abstract Small
