Reconstruction of Head and Neck Defects Using Medial Sural Artery Perforator Free Flap.

Aim: To study the use of medial sural artery perforator (MSAP) free flap in head and neck reconstruction.

Material And Method: This was a prospective study. The patients with cancers of head and neck underwent excision of tumor along with neck dissection, and MSAP free flap was used for reconstruction.

Functional Reconstruction of Through and Through Cheek Defect with Free Composite Bi-pedalled Anterolateral Thigh Flap.

Unlabelled: Extensive composite defects involving the lip and cheek present difficult reconstructive challenges in view of functional recovery like oral competence, articulation, speech and mastication. This study presents our results of reconstructing through and through cheek defect with the use of free anterolateral thigh (ALT) flaps. All the patients with carcinoma of buccal mucosa and cheek who underwent through and through cheek resection and reconstructed with free composite pedalled anterolateral thigh flap between March 2019 to March 2020 were included in the study.

Reconstruction of Complex Oro-Mandibular Defect Using Free Fibula Flap and Lateral Sural Artery Flap: A Case Series.

Through and through complex oro-mandibular defect usually involves buccal mucosa, mandibular segment, lip, and outer cheek skin. Reconstruction of such extensive three-dimensional defects pose a great challenge to reconstructive surgeons which requires use of two flaps. There are diverse options for such types of defects like use two pedicled flaps, one free flap, one pedicled flap or use of two free flaps.

Revisiting the Use of GORE-TEX as an Interpositional Material in Surgical Management of Severe Temporomandibular Joint Ankylosis.

(1) Defining a protocol for management of patients with severe temporomandibular joint ankylosis. (2) Review the results of use of GORE-TEX as an interpositional material in gap arthroplasty. All cases which were treated with surgical intervention for severe TMJ Ankylosis with use of GORE-TEX as an interpositional material have been included.

Comparative Study of Outcome of Type I Tympanoplasty in Chronic Otitis Media Active Mucosal Disease (Wet Ear) Versus Chronic Otitis Media Inactive Mucosal Disease (Dry Ear).

To compare the outcome of type I tympanoplasty with cortical mastoidectomy in chronic otitis media active mucosal disease (wet ear) versus chronic otitis media inactive mucosal disease (dry ear). An observational analytic study was conducted and data collection was done from August 2014 to August 2016. All patients of chronic otitis media with mucosal disease were divided into two groups, one with active disease (group A) and another with inactive disease (group B).
