Microsurgical Reconstruction of Complex Scalp Defects With Vastus Lateralis Free Flap.
[BACKGROUND] Scalp reconstruction is a challenging field for plastic surgeons. In case of large or complex defects, microsurgical-free flaps are usually required. Reconstructive failure can result in high morbidity and in some cases be life…

Combined ultrasound imaging/neurophysiological evaluation for surgical planning in upper limb traumatic nerve injuries with concomitant vascular damage: Two emblematic cases and a review of litterature.
[BACKGROUND] Traumatic injuries and penetrating traumas of the upper limb are at high risk of combined neurovascular lesion, due to anatomical proximity of main vessels and nerves. Occasionally, post-traumatic pseudoaneurysms or thrombi can…

Effects of Nanofat and PRP on Type I Collagen Production in Striae Distensae: Preliminary Findings from a Prospective, Randomized Single-Blind Study.
[INTRODUCTION] Striae distensae (SD) appear clinically as parallel striae, lying perpendicular to the tension lines of the skin. SD evolve into two clinical phases, an initial inflammatory phase in which they are called "striae rubrae" (SR)…

Soft tissue reconstruction of the trunk with pedicled perforator and musculocutaneous flaps: A single-center comparative retrospective study.
[BACKGROUND] Soft tissue trunk reconstruction is often challenging. Although free microvascular flaps are a feasible option in case of extensive defects involving deep structures, pedicled flaps represent a good alternative, especially if h…

Latissimus Dorsi Flap and Thoracodorsal Artery Perforator Flap with Immediate Fat Transfer (LIFT and TIFT): A Retrospective Study about Total Breast Reconstruction in High-Risk Patients.
[INTRODUCTION] Microsurgical breast reconstruction has become popular over the past twenty years and allows a tailor-tuck approach to each patient. However, smoking or coagulation disorders may switch surgeon's choice towards alternative op…

The wide base bipedicled (WIBB) flap in nipple-sparing skin-reducing mastectomy.
In this article, we present a modification of the NS/SRM technique in which the mastopexy design for skin reduction is undertaken with a wide-base bipedicled (WIBB) flap. The WIBB flap can be applied in both autologous and implant-based bre…

The "Octopus Head" Dermoglandular Flap: A Novel Technique for Breast Tissue Rearranging after Implant Removal.
[BACKGROUND] Patients with previous breast augmentation may need implant removal for mechanical complications or other causes. After prosthesis removal, the residual parenchyma can be reshaped through a mastopexy with rearrangement of breas…

Studying nerve transfers: Searching for a consensus in nerve axons count.
Axonal count is the base for efficient nerve transfer; despite its capital importance, few studies have been published on human material, most research approaches being performed on experimental animal models of nerve injury. Thus, standard…

Safety of Reconstructive Microsurgery in the Elderly Population: a Multicentric Prospective Study.
[BACKGROUND] Safety of reconstructive microsurgery in elderly patients is still a topic of debate, because no conclusive evidence exists that provides indications and risk evaluation in elderly patients. The purpose of this study, which the…

Injectable xyloglucan hydrogels incorporating spheroids of adipose stem cells for bone and cartilage regeneration.
Cartilage or bone regeneration approaches based on the direct injection of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) at the lesion site encounter several challenges, related to uncontrolled cell spreading and differentiation, reduced cell viability and…

The Thin bilateral and bipedicled DIEAP flap for axillary reconstruction in hidradenitis suppurativa.
[INTRODUCTION] Reconstruction after resection of advanced stage hidradenitis suppurativa is currently performed with pedicled perforator flaps, that allow functional reconstruction and preservation of shoulder function. Skin availability is…

Male breast cancer: Modified radical mastectomy or breast conservation surgery? A case report and review of the literature.
[INTRODUCTION] Male breast cancer (MBC) is a rare disease that accounts for …

The face lift SMAS plication flap for reconstruction of large temporofrontal defects: reconstructive surgery meets cosmetic surgery.
[BACKGROUND] Reconstruction of large defects in the temporal region can be performed with skin grafts or pedicled or free flaps. Results are often not optimal because of the patch of a skin graft, lack of availability of local flaps, and di…

Correction of constricted ear.
We present a case of moderate constricted ear corrected using a modified Tanzer's technique for the helical deformity and lengthening the lower third of the pinna with a cutaneous transposition flap from the retroauricular area. The operati…
