Total posterior leg open wound management with free anterolateral thigh flap: case and literature review. [PDF]
Soft tissue coverage of the exposed Achilles tendon is a unique reconstructive challenge. In this report, we describe the management of a large posterior leg wound with exposed Achilles tendon using a free anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap. A careful review

New Anatomic Landmark for Perforator of Anterolateral Thigh Flap in Preoperative Ultrasonography
We defined the new anatomic landmark for proximal ALT perforator. The junction between the tensor fasciae latae and the iliotibial tract can serve as a reliable anatomic landmark for the dominant perforator of the ALT flap. ABSTRACT Objectives The midpoint of the thigh is a well‐known anatomic landmark for the perforators of the anterolateral thigh ...

RADA‐16 Reduces Postoperative Epistaxis After Inferior Turbinate Submucosal Resection
RADA‐16 is a self‐assembling peptide matrix that forms a hydrogel structure, showing potential for enhanced wound healing and hemostasis. In this retrospective cohort study, postoperative bleeding rates were compared between patients treated with RADA‐16 and those without, demonstrating an association between RADA‐16 use and decreased rates of ...

Bilateral Breast Reconstruction with Extended Thoracodorsal Artery Perforator Propeller Flaps and Implants [PDF]
We present our experience of bilateral total breast reconstruction using a double-sided extended thoracodorsal artery perforator propeller flap in a case series of 10 patients. Reconstruction was successfully achieved in all cases with few complications.

Mosaic Fleur-de-Profunda Artery Perforator Flap for Autologous Breast Reconstruction
Summary:. Perforator-free flaps, in autologous breast reconstruction, have expanded to exploit tissue available at smaller donor sites while retaining high success and low risk rates. Abdominal based flaps, such as the deep inferior epigastric perforator,

Postoperative Fluoroscopic Appearance After Flexible Endoscopic Zenker's Diverticulotomy
We perform a retrospective study on patients undergoing flexible Zenker's diverticulotomy surgery and report changes in the objective fluoroscopic appearance as well as patient‐reported outcome measures. ABSTRACT Objective Flexible approach to treating Zenker's diverticulum (ZD) has gained traction in recent years. However, objective measures comparing

Predictive Factors of Free Flap Volume Evolution in Head and Neck Reconstruction
Abstract Objective The aim of our study was to determine the factors influencing the evolution of the total volume and bone volume of free flaps commonly used in head and neck surgery, with a 30‐month prospective study, to establish volume change predictions and thus propose a degree of overcorrection to be expected before reconstruction.
