Utilization of Recipient Veins with Reflux during Supermicrosurgical Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis for Lower Limb Lymphedema.
[BACKGROUND] The use of recipient veins with venous reflux for lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) is discouraged because it is commonly believed that this may lead to venous-lymphatic reflux (VLR). VLR is a phenomenon in which venous blood …

Linking Lymphedema, Chronic Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, Alzheimer Disease, and Potential Role of Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis.
[BACKGROUND] Lymphedema and Alzheimer disease (AD) share common mechanisms involving oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. However, the link between these 2 conditions and the impact of lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) has not been f…

Impact of Lymphedema Duration on Lymphatic Vessel Quality and Outcomes after Super-microsurgical Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis.
[BACKGROUND] Inferior lymphatic vessel (LV) quality was thought to be associated with prolonged lymphedema duration (LD), which can lead to unfavorable lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) outcomes. However, increasing evidence supports the u…

Groin-only lymphaticovenous anastomosis: a paradigm shift for lower extremity lymphedema - a prospective cohort propensity-score matched analysis.
[BACKGROUND] Based on the recent advancement in the concepts of lymphosome and the use of antegrade lymph flow, shifting lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) more proximally to the groin region for lower extremity lymphedema (LEL) offers theo…

Comparison of contraction-type and noncontraction-type lymphatic vessels in lymphaticovenous anastomosis for cancer-related unilateral lower limb lymphedema: a retrospective cohort propensity-score-matched outcome analysis.
[BACKGROUND] Contraction-type lymphatic vessels (LV) are considered suboptimal for lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA). However, despite these pathological changes, their functionality and link to outcomes have not been fully elucidated. The…

Impact of retrograde anastomosis during supermicrosurgical lymphaticovenous anastomosis for cancer-related lower limb lymphedema: A retrospective cohort propensity-score-matched outcome analysis.
[BACKGROUND] In addition to antegrade anastomosis, retrograde anastomosis has been thought to offer further improvements after lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) by bypassing the retrograde lymphatic flow. However, this concept has yet to b…

Comparison of the surgical outcomes of free flap reconstruction for primary and recurrent head and neck cancers: a case-controlled propensity score-matched study of 1,791 free flap reconstructions.
This study was designed to compare the outcome and analyze the operation-related risk factors in free flap reconstruction for patients with primary and recurrent head and neck cancers. A 1:1 propensity score-matched analysis of the microsur…

Lower Limb Lymphedema Patients Can Still Benefit from Supermicrosurgical Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis (LVA) after Vascularized Lymph Node Flap Transfer (VLNT) as Delayed Lymphatic Reconstruction-A Retrospective Cohort Study.
[BACKGROUND] For lymphedema patients who received a vascularized lymph node flap transfer (VLNT) as their primary treatment, what are the treatment options when they seek further improvement? With recent publications supporting the use of l…

Risk factors associated with postoperative complications of free anterolateral thigh flap placement in patients with head and neck cancer: Analysis of propensity score-matched cohorts.
[BACKGROUND] From the perspective of a surgeon, knowledge of the operative risk factors that may affect postoperative outcomes is important in free anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap reconstruction for head and neck defects after tumor ablation…

Comparison of the outcomes between free anteromedial thigh flap and anterolateral thigh flap in head and neck cancer reconstruction: Analysis of propensity-score-matched patient cohorts.
[BACKGROUND] The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap is a workhorse flap in head and neck cancer reconstruction. The anteromedial thigh (AMT) flap was developed as a rescue or alternative flap whenever the ALT flap is not available; however, the…
