Vulvar Reconstruction with Freestyle Perforator Flap from the Medial Thigh Using Color Doppler Ultrasound.

Vulvoperineal defects mount significant functional and aesthetic challenges for reconstructive surgeons, often followed by postoperative complications. Ideal flap creation and perforator selection is vital for proper healing, especially in those with comorbid health concerns. This report details an innovative approach to vulvar reconstruction using a freestyle perforator flap from the medial thigh, identified by color flow Doppler ultrasound (CDU).

Characterizing the untapped potential of virtual reality in plastic and reconstructive surgical training: A systematic review on skill transferability.

Virtual reality (VR) integration into surgical education has gained immense traction by invigorating skill-building in ways that are unlike the traditional modes of training. This systematic review unites current literature relevant to VR in surgical education to showcase tool transferability, and subsequent impact on knowledge acquisition, skill development, and technological innovation. This review followed the PRISMA guidelines and included three databases.
