Results of contralateral anastomosis of microvascular free flaps in head and neck reconstruction.
ObjectivesDespite various solutions to the issue of ipsilateral vessel-depleted neck in microvascular head and neck reconstruction, concrete data on its safety and implementation are scarce. This paper focuses on the feasibility and success…

Perioperative anticoagulation in free microvascular flaps - a comparison of different prophylactic regimes in oncologic reconstructive surgery.
[OBJECTIVE] Free tissue transfer has an established place in oncologic head and neck surgery. However, the necessity and specific regimen of perioperative thromboprophylaxis remain controversial. Here, the risk of postoperative hemorrhage c…

[Salvage laryngectomy after primary radio- and radiochemotherapy : A retrospective study. German version].
[BACKGROUND] Recurrent and residual laryngeal cancer after organ-preserving radio- or radiochemotherapy is associated with a poor prognosis. Salvage surgery is the most important therapeutic option in these cases. [OBJECTIVE] The study ass…

[Lipotransfer after free-flap tongue reconstruction can improve dysphagia and articulation disorders: a case report].
Atrophy of tongue after free-flap reconstruction often leads to functional problems like dysphagia and articulation disorders. Lipotransfer might resolve this issue. We describe a case of repeated lipotransfer into an atrophied reconstructe…

Outcomes of transoral laser microsurgery and transoral robotic surgery in oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
[OBJECTIVE] Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) has evolved to a standard therapy modality for oropharyngeal carcinoma, especially in T1/ T2 tumors involving the base of the tongue due to its advantages compared with open surgery. However, kno…

Postoperative management of antithrombotic medication in microvascular head and neck reconstruction: a comparative analysis of unfractionated and low-molecular-weight heparin.
[PURPOSE] Free flap reconstruction is a valuable technique to preserve function in oncological head and neck surgery. Postoperative graft thrombosis is a dreaded risk. This study aims to compare low-dose unfractionated heparin (UFH) and low…

[Thrombosis of sewn vs. coupled anastomoses in microvascular head and neck reconstructions].
[OBJECTIVE] The Anastomotic Coupling Device for microvascular anastomoses has become widely used in free tissue transplantation. This study compares the thrombosis rate and flap failure as a function of the anastomosis technique at a large …

[Functional and esthetically oriented reconstruction of lip defects].
Reconstruction of lip defects presents a challenge to the surgeon. Apart from attaining a good aesthetic result, preserving the function of the oral sphincter is an essential objective. A variety of techniques and modifications of procedure…
