Extended adipofascial wrap around radial forearm flap for hard palate reconstruction.

Background: While using radial forearm free flap in palate reconstruction, the pedicle lies in the nasal floor, constantly exposed to the nasal secretions and turbulent air current. To overcome this problem, we have designed a procedure which utilises the adipofascial extension to wrap the pedicle and nasal side of the flap.

Materials And Methods: The study was done during 2017 and 2018, 2 years' period.

Use of selfie sticks and iPhones to record operative photos and videos in plastic surgery.

Use of smartphone has become ubiquitous. With smartphone cameras becoming powerful, they are replacing digital cameras and digital SLRs as primary instruments to take photos and record videos. It is natural even for plastic surgeons that smartphones are handy to take still photographs and even record high-definition or 4K videos.

A novel and innovative technique of using a disposable syringe and mesh for harvesting fat for structural fat grafting.

Background: Successful restoration of structure and function using autologous free fat grafts has remained elusive. Review of literature shows that various harvesting and preparation techniques have been suggested. The goal of these techniques is to obtain greater adipocyte cell survival and consequently more reliable clinical results.
