Penile Chylorrhea as a Rare Presentation of Penile Lymphangioma Circumscriptum Reconstructed with Deep External Pudendal Artery Perforator Flap.

Chylorrhea, a chylous (white viscid) discharge from the external urethral penile opening, is unrelated to urination and is a rare presentation of lymphangioma circumscriptum in the penis that can significantly impair a patient's quality of life and psychological well-being. Herein, we present a case of recurrent chylorrhea that was detected using diagnostic tools and treated using the deep external pudendal artery perforator flap in the inner thigh, which is extremely rich in lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes.

Functional Restoration of Complex Segmental Middle Third Facial Defect Using Tensor Fascia Lata and Lipofilling.

Composite defects in the middle third of the face have devastating effects on a patient's life and social impacts. Several techniques have been described for the restoration of facial defects. The dynamic reconstruction of such defects mainly comprises a complex two-stage procedure and/or microsurgery, functional muscle transfer for restoration of facial animation, and filling the defects.

Aesthetic Restoration of Severe Hemifacial Atrophy With Free Adipofacial Antero Lateral Thigh Flap Followed by Autologous Fat Grafting; Optimizing Result and Long-Term Outcome.

Background: Hemifacial atrophy (Romberg disease) is characterized by progressive soft tissue and bone atrophy on 1 side of the face. The process of atrophy usually starts in the late first or early second decade of life. Romberg Patients usually require soft tissue augmentation for the correction of their defect.

Facial Reanimation With Free Latissumus Dorsi Muscle Transfer, a Comparative Study Between Lateral and Supine Approach.

In this article, the authors present the versatility of the Latissmus dorsi muscle as a donor option in facial reanimation and compare between different approaches in harvesting this muscle.The study included 24 Latissimus Dorsi (LD) functional muscles were transferred for smile reanimation of complete facial palsy. The patients were classified into 2 groups in which the muscle either harvested with supine or lateral (trans-axillary) approach.

Pediatric Microsurgery in the Reconstruction of Complex Posttraumatic Foot and Ankle Defects: A Long-Term Follow-Up with a Comprehensive Review of the Literature.

Background:  Lower limb reconstruction is a well-recognized challenge to the trauma or plastic surgeon. Although techniques and outcomes in the adult population are well documented, they are less so in the pediatric population. Here, we present our experience in the management of posttraumatic foot and ankle defects with free tissue transfer in children.
