Alternate Soft-Tissue Free Flaps for Head and Neck Reconstruction: The Next Generation of Workhorse Flaps.

There is little debate regarding the workhorse flaps for soft-tissue defects in head and neck reconstruction. However, in certain circumstances, the workhorse flaps are not available or suitable, and ... The author performed a retrospective review of a single-surgeon experience with alternate soft-tissue flaps performed over a 10-year period.... Overall, 156 alternate soft-tissue free flaps were performed in 155 patients. The distribution of free flaps was 60 ulnar artery perforator (UAP), 28 lateral arm perforator (LAP), 33 medial sural arte... Reconstructive microsurgeons performing high-volume head and neck reconstruction may need to incorporate alternate donor sites into their armamentarium when the primary workhorse flaps are not suitabl...

Novel V-shaped kiss flap harvest technique for the forearm free flap in soft tissue reconstruction.

Radial forearm flap (RFF) is widely used in oral reconstruction. However, the donor-site defect remains the main limit. In this paper, V-shaped kiss RFF (VRFF) is described as a novel technique to imp... A total of 21 patients who underwent VRFF for oral reconstruction, and 23 patients who underwent conventional RFF from February 2016 to April 2018 were included in this study. Direct comparisons were ... No skin grafts were used in the VRFF group, and 20 of 21 patients achieved primary healing at donor site, while all patients from the RFF group had skin grafts. And 18 of 23 patients achieved primary ... VRFF is able to provide a new and simple method to close donor-site defect and realize a better healing in donor site....

Reconstruction of Finger Soft Tissue Defects With a Thinned Free Anterolateral Thigh Flap.

Reconstructing complex soft tissue defects of the finger requires both functional and aesthetic aspects. There are many free tissue transfers as suitable options for digital resurfacing. The anterolat... From May 2009 to March 2018, 10 patients with complete circumferential or semicircumcision defects in the fingers underwent reconstructive procedures that included thinned ALT flap transfer. Finger so... The ALT flap sizes, averaging 4-9 cm wide and 6-12 cm long, were thinned to 4-7 mm. One perforator was included in the flaps with a pedicle length average of 6.1 cm. The flaps survived entirely in all... The small thinned ALT perforator flap can be an excellent option for full circumferential or semicircumferential soft tissue defects of the finger. Follow-up showed this as an excellent alternative fo...

Free Flaps for Skin and Soft Tissue Reconstruction in the Elderly Patient: Indication or Contraindication.

Increased lifespan and the improvement of medical treatment have given rise to research in reconstructive procedures in elderly patients. Higher postoperative complication rates, longer rehabilitation... Patients were divided into two groups (YOUNG 0-59 years; OLD > 60 years). The endpoint was the survival of flaps and their dependence on patient- and surgery-specific parameters using multivariate ana... A total of 110 patients (OLD... The results confirm that free flap surgery can be indicated as a safe method for the elderly.
