Article Synopsis
  • This study examines the use of muscle flap reconstruction for patients who developed complications at the groin site after undergoing venous-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO), which is often necessary for patients with severe medical issues.
  • Fifteen patients were analyzed, with common issues including groin lymphocele and exposed femoral vessels; the most frequently used reconstruction method was a rectus femoris flap.
  • The results indicated that muscle flap reconstruction was generally successful, with no cases of lymphocele recurrence and minimal flap-specific complications, although some patients did experience other postoperative issues.

Background: In lower extremity sarcoma treatment, limb salvage approaches present superior alternatives to amputation due to reduced postoperative morbidity and improved quality of life. This study provides a novel analysis of socioeconomic disparities that may affect reception of limb-sparing surgery.

Methods: Patients with lower extremity bone or soft tissue sarcoma who received either limb-sparing surgery or amputation from 2007 to 2021 were identified in the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database.

Three-dimensional (3D) planning and manufacturing technologies have become integral to head and neck reconstruction following tumor resection. These technologies facilitate the prototyping of patient-specific solutions in both digital and physical form. Three-dimensional tumor models and cutting guides help conceptualize and verify the surgical approach, as well as serve as a blueprint for reconstruction.
