Reverse Adipofascial Radial Forearm Flap Surgery for Soft-Tissue Reconstruction of Hand Defects.

The reverse radial forearm flap has been used for soft-tissue hand defect surgical procedures worldwide. One of the major drawbacks of this flap, however, is donor site morbidity, as the donor site is closed with a skin graft. Problems with skin graft donor areas include adhesion, contracture, and wound-healing complications.

Fingertip Reconstruction With Reverse Adipofascial Homodigital Flap.

Unlabelled: Due to the importance of hand functions, fingertip injuries should be reconstructed by flap coverage. Although reverse homodigital island flap is an option that is widely used, the classical homodigital flap, which includes a skin graft for the donor site, leads to many donor-site problems such as maceration, and primary or secondary contraction. Reverse homodigital adipofascial flap (RHAF) has been chosen to prevent donor-site complications.

Extracorporeal Septoplasty Combined With Valve Surgery in Rhinoplasty Patients.

External nasal deviation is caused primarily by severely a deformed septum. The nose functions as a whole composed of the septum, valve systems, and mucosal structures. Patients with severely deviated septums also have deformed nasal valve systems.

The worth of sound recording as evaluation criteria of response to surgery in non-reduced anterior disc dislocation.

Aim: The objective of the present study was to examine whether joint sounds are objective criteria for evaluating the success of surgery for non-reduced anterior disc dislocation.

Method: Twenty-seven patients (age, 35.6 ± 10.

An easy way for congenital symmastia correction.

Unlabelled: Congenital symmastia is described as a connection between the breasts without macromastia. In this condition, there is accumulation of fat and glandular tissue between the breasts, which produces a unified appearance of the breast tissue across the chest. We report a case of congenital symmastia in a 21-year-old woman with normal-sized and -shaped breasts.
