Free Flap Reconstruction for Gastrocnemius Muscle Necrosis to Avoid Above-Knee Amputation.
[INTRODUCTION] Below-knee amputation is functionally superior to above-knee amputation, and preservation of the knee joint is essential for optimal mobility. In below-knee amputation, muscular coverage of the tibial stump and proper shaping…

Extremity Soft-tissue Reconstruction With the Conjoined Latissimus Dorsi-Groin Flap.
Extensive soft-tissue defects in the extremities pose a significant challenge in reconstructive surgery. The combined latissimus dorsi (LD) and groin flap technique, a method developed by Harii et al in 1981, has shown promise in treating s…

Flap Failure and Re-exploration in Head and Neck Free Tissue Reconstruction: The Impact of the Venous System Choice.
Background and objective Free tissue transfer is widely performed in head and neck reconstruction. However, venous thrombosis at the vascular anastomosis remains a serious complication and a major cause of re-exploration. Hence, we conducte…

Function-preserving Surgery for Femoral Sarcoma by "In Situ Preparation" Technique with a Free Flap.
Resection of soft-tissue sarcomas near important tissues (major blood vessels, nerves, bones) is challenging. "In situ preparation" (ISP) technique enables the function of the affected limb to be maintained by preserving the tissue as much …

Ethanol treatment of nanoPGA/PCL composite scaffolds enhances human chondrocyte development in the cellular microenvironment of tissue-engineered auricle constructs.
A major obstacle for tissue engineering ear-shaped cartilage is poorly developed tissue comprising cell-scaffold constructs. To address this issue, bioresorbable scaffolds of poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) and polyglycolic acid nanofibers (nanoP…
