Utility of Microvascular Reconstruction in Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery During Complex Resections and Emergency Salvage.

Major gastrointestinal surgical resections and subsequent reconstruction can occasionally need arterial or venous resection, can encounter variant anatomy, or may lead to injury to vessels. These can lead to arterial and/or venous insufficiency of viscera like the stomach, liver, colon, or spleen. Left unaddressed, these can lead to, partial or total, organ ischemia or necrosis.

Reduction Mammoplasty Approach to Oncoplasty-Zone-Wise Planning in Indian Patients.

This article is an attempt to formulate certain guidelines for planning of zone-wise reconstruction after breast conservation surgery. The planning involves applying reduction mammoplasty principles with certain modifications to address the defect. This is a retrospective study of 61 patients with breast cancer who underwent breast conservation surgery and reconstruction of partial breast defects with oncoplastic techniques between January 2014 to March 2019.

Awkward defects around the elbow: The radial recurrent artery flap revisited.

Background: Soft tissue defects on the posterior aspect of the elbow are commonly seen in patients treated with internal fixation for fractures around the elbow joint. An axial flap based on the radial recurrent artery (RRA) is very useful for such defects, especially if a posterior midline arm incision has been taken for skeletal fixation. The aim of this study is to describe the usefulness of RRA flap (based on the RRA) in the management of such defects.
