Is the Modified Allen's Test a Useful Tool for Evaluating the Vascular Dominance of the Forearm?
[BACKGROUND] The modified Allen's test (MAT) is commonly used to evaluate the collateral blood supply from the ulnar artery before harvesting a radial or ulnar forearm free flap. We hypothesized that the outcome of the MAT would be inversel…

Identification of optimal flap types for color matching in free flap-based facial reconstruction in Asian population.
Large soft tissue defects of the face often require free flap-based reconstruction. To avoid a conspicuous patch-like appearance, choosing flaps with a color similar to that of the adjacent facial skin is crucial. This study aimed to identi…

Lower Leg Reconstruction With Free Tissue Transfer Using Reverse Flow Recipient Vein: A Case Report.
Since the introduction of distally based flap, the concept of reverse flow flap was expanded to free tissue transfers. For recipient vessels, retrograde arterial inflow is considered a safe option for anastomosis. However, the reliability o…

Natural course of fat necrosis after deep inferior epigastric perforator flap-based breast reconstruction: Evaluation based on ultrasound examination.
[BACKGROUND] Fat necrosis, often developing following deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap-based breast reconstruction, is not a negligible complication. This study aimed to conduct a longitudinal assessment of the clinical cours…

Comparison of surgical outcomes of free flap reconstructions performed by expert microsurgeons and trainees who completed a structured microsurgical training program in a teaching hospital.
[BACKGROUND] Few studies have evaluated clinical outcomes of novice surgeons trained in a microsurgical training program. Herein, we describe successful free flap reconstructions performed by trainees who completed a structured microsurgica…
