Anatomical Variant of the Lateral Circumflex Femoral Artery: A Cadaveric Case Report. [PDF]
The lateral circumflex femoral artery (LCFA), a branch of the deep femoral artery (DFA), supplies the muscular and fascial anatomy of the anterior thigh. An undocumented variation of the LCFA was discovered during a dissection of the lower extremities.

Recipient Vessel Selection in Free Flap Phalloplasty: A Systematic Review and Single-Arm Meta-Analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Selection of recipient vessels in phalloplasty is challenging due to the absence of adequate vessels in the immediate proximity. There is no consensus on the appropriate vessel selection. We hypothesized that recipient vessel selection in phalloplasty is associated with differences in complications and flap survival.

Iatrogenic vascular injury during retrograde intramedullary nailing of a distal femur fracture: a case report [PDF]
We report a case of iatrogenic injury to the lateral circumflex femoral artery following distal femoral nailing in a 72-year-old patient. Postoperatively, progressive thigh swelling developed, but initial contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed

Staged Flap Reconstruction of Massive Abdominal Loss of Domain and Sacral Pressure Injury to Restore Quality of Life: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Simultaneous massive abdominal wall loss of domain (LOD) and chronic sacral pressure injury presents an exceptional reconstructive challenge. Optimal sequencing of reconstruction in patients with multifocal defects and impaired mobility remains poorly defined.

Anatomic variability of branches of iliac and femoral arteries in human fetuses [PDF]
Introduction. The anatomy of the gluteal and anterior femoral regions is characterized by considerable age and individual variability of the muscles and neurovascular formations, which is a rather common cause of complications during surgical ...

“Trifurcation” of femoral artery
The present study describes analytically a rare case in which a trifurcation of Femoral Artery in Superficial Femoral Artery, Deep Femoral Artery and Lateral Circumflex Femoral Artery was found during dissection of a cadaver.
