The Outcome Of Pedicled Medial Sural Artery Perforating Flap For Proximal Leg Reconstruction.

Background: Reconstruction of defects around the knee and proximal leg are difficult to reconstruct. Out of the multiple flaps described for reconstruction, the pedicled Medial Sural Artery Perforating Flap (MSAP) has recently gained popularity. We conducted this study to assess the clinical outcomes of pedicled MSAP for this purpose at our hospital.

Reconstruction Of Segmental Mandibular Loss With Vascularized Free Fibula Flapsn.

Background: Various methods for mandibular reconstruction have been demonstrated in literature from autogenous bone graft to free flaps and more recently tissue engineered materials. We share our experience of mandibular reconstruction with free fibular flap and evaluate its efficiency as a viable option for mandibular reconstruction.

Methods: It was a cross-sectional study, conducted at Plastic surgery department combined military hospital, Rawalpindi.

Use of vascularised free fibula in limb reconstruction (for non-malignant defects).

The case series was conducted at the Department of Plastic Surgery, Combined Military Hospital, Rawalpindi, from June 2009 to May 2011, and comprised 19 patients in whom free fibula flap was performed for upper and lower limb reconstruction, using SPSS 16. Results showed that flap survival was 100%. One (5.
