Although mainly used to provide volume, it has also been reported as an adjunct to implant-based breast reconstruction. Methods: Patients undergoing salvage breast reconstruction surgery with the TDAP flap in the last 20 years were identified from the senior author’s logbook and their clinical data collected from EpicTM, the hospital electronic medical records system. Results: Two such patients, aged 44 and 52 years, were identified. The first had “impending failure” of a subpectoral implant reconstruction following severe cutaneous radiation reaction and poor quality soft tissues overlying the implant, coupled with recurrent seromas. The second had partial SIEA abdominal free flap fat necrosis, leading to volume loss, severe cutaneous scarring and significant deformity. The flap dimensions were 10 ×cm 25 cm and 8 cm × 25 cm, respectively. They OPEN ACCESS were each based on a single vascular perforator– one arising from the horizontal and the other from the vertical branch of the thoracodorsal vessels. Both flap transfers were successful and resulted in *Correspondence: viable reconstructions despite the challenging indications.

Abstract Resection of bulky head and neck tumors is typically followed by microvascular free flap reconstruction. The latter has shown an acceptable success rate but often requires a secondary revision with a free tissue transfer reconstruction to improve outcome; both cosmetic and functional. Direct surgical revision via electrocautery/scalpel poses a high risk of flap perfusion compromise. Suction assisted lipectomy on the other hand is a feasible and safe technique that offers favorable contouring with comparable restoration cosmetic and functional outcomes. In this article, we review the indications and advantages of this technique and provide an outlook on its safety and pitfalls. Keywords: Liposuction; Free Flap; Reconstruction theoretically minimal since fibrous structures containing blood vessels remains unharmed as the fat is removed with liposuction [8].

It is important that you read this information carefully and completely. Please initial each page, indicating that you have read the page and sign the consent for surgery as proposed by your plastic surgeon and agreed upon by you. GENERAL INFORMATION Facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure to improve visible signs of aging on the face and neck. As individuals age, the skin and muscles of the face region begin to lose tone. The facelift cannot stop the process of aging. It can improve the most visible signs of aging by tightening deeper structures, re-draping the skin of face and neck, and removing selected areas of fat. A facelift can be performed alone, or in conjunction with other procedures, such as a browlift, liposuction, eyelid surgery, or nasal surgery. Facelift surgery is individualized for each patient. The best candidates for facelift surgery have a face and neck line beginning to sag, but whose skin has elasticity and whose bone structure is well defined.

  • Comparing Rates of Distal Edge Necrosis in Deep-Plane Vs Subcutaneous Cervicofacial Rotation-Advancement Flaps for Facial Cutaneous Mohs Defects
    Research Original Investigation Comparing Rates of Distal Edge Necrosis in Deep-Plane vs Subcutaneous Cervicofacial Rotation-Advancement Flaps for Facial Cutaneous Mohs Defects Andrew A. Jacono, MD; Joseph J. Rousso, MD; Thomas J. Lavin IMPORTANCE The cervicofacial rotation-advancement flap is commonly used for facial defects. Decreasing the rate of distal edge necrosis (DEN) encountered with this flap would help prevent complications in sensitive areas such as the eyelid, lip, and nose. OBJECTIVE To compare the untoward occurrence of DEN between 2 surgical dissection methods for reconstructive cervicofacial rotation-advancement flaps. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, AND EXPOSURE A review was conducted of 88 patients who underwent cervicofacial flap reconstruction for Mohs ablative surgery between January 1, 2003, and June 30, 2012, by the senior author (A.A.J.). All patients had periorbital, midfacial, Author Affiliations: New York Center cervical, and/or lateral temporal/forehead defects following Mohs surgical ablation.

However, there are many problems in the process of skin flap transplantation surgeries, especially ischemia-reperfusion injury, which directly affects the survival rate of the skin flap and patient prognosis after surgeries.

  • Factors Affecting the Outcome of Lower Extremity Osteomyelitis Treated With
    Thai et al. Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research (2021) 16:535 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13018-021-02686-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Factors affecting the outcome of lower extremity osteomyelitis treated with microvascular free flaps: an analysis of 65 patients Duy Quang Thai1,2, Yeon Kyo Jung1, Hyung Min Hahn1 and Il Jae Lee1* Abstract Background: Free flaps have been a useful modality in the management of lower extremity osteomyelitis particularly in limb salvage. This study aimed to determine the factors affecting the outcome of free flap reconstruction in the treatment of osteomyelitis. Methods: This retrospective study assessed 65 osteomyelitis patients treated with free flap transfer from 2015 to 2020. The treatment outcomes were evaluated in terms of the flap survival rate, recurrence rate of osteomyelitis, and amputation rate. The correlation between outcomes and comorbidities, causes of osteomyelitis, and treatment modalities was analyzed. The following factors were considered: smoking, peripheral artery occlusive disease, renal disease, diabetic foot ulcer, flap types, using antibiotic beads, and negative pressure wound therapy. Result: Among the 65 patients, 21 had a severe peripheral arterial occlusive disease. Osteomyelitis developed from diabetic foot ulcers in 28 patients. Total flap failure was noted in six patients, and osteomyelitis recurrence was noted in eight patients, for which two patients underwent amputation surgery during the follow-up period. Only end-stage renal disease had a significant correlation with the recurrence rate (odds ratio = 16.5, p = 0.011). There was no significant relationship between outcomes and the other factors. Conclusion: This study showed that free flaps could be safely used for the treatment of osteomyelitis in patients with comorbidities and those who had osteomyelitis developing from diabetic foot ulcers.
