Does Dangling the Lower Extremity after Free Flap Reconstruction Reduce Partial Flap Loss? A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial.
[BACKGROUND] Controlled, gradually increased venous pressure exposure of lower extremity free flaps (dangling) is common, based on the assumption that this reduces (partial) flap loss. Dangling protocols potentially increase length of hospi…

Patient-reported outcomes after free muscle flap coverage for therapy-resistant neuropathic pain from the ulnar nerve.
Extensive microsurgical neurolysis followed by free gracilis muscle flap coverage can be performed as a last resort for patients with persistent neuropathic pain of the ulnar nerve. All patients who had this surgery between 2015 and 2021 we…

Mental health is strongly associated with capability after lower extremity injury treated with free flap limb salvage or amputation.
[BACKGROUND] Knowledge about factors associated with long-term outcomes, after severe traumatic injury to the lower extremity, can aid with the difficult decision whether to salvage or amputate the leg and improve outcome. We therefore stud…

Patient-reported esthetic outcomes following lower extremity free flap reconstruction: A cross-sectional multicenter study.
[INTRODUCTION] The goal of lower-extremity reconstructions is primarily to salvage the leg; however, esthetic outcomes are also important. This study aimed to assess the impact of a lower extremity free tissue transfer regarding social func…
