Objective: To evaluate the clinical application and surgical efficacy of the chimeric perforator flap pedicled with the descending branch of the lateral circumflex femoral artery and the lateral thigh muscle flap for the reconstruction of the large area of deep wound in foot and ankle.
Methods: Clinical data of 32 cases who underwent chimeric anterolateral thigh perforator flap to repair the large area of deep wound of the foot and ankle from January 2015 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The sizes of the defects ranged from 18 cm × 10 cm to 35 cm × 20 cm, with exposed tendon and bone and/or partial defects and necrosis, contaminations, accompanied by different degrees of infection.
Purpose: The present study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and clinical efficacy of bridging vein transplantation to deal with the vessel shortage during free vascularized fibular grafting for reconstructing infected bone defects of the femur.
Methods: Twelve patients (aged 15-58 years) with infected bone defects of the femur (between 6.0 and 18.
Background: This study is aimed at evaluating the operation techniques and clinical significance of free flap transplantation combined with skin grafting and vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) in repairing severe traumatic extensive circumferential or semi-circumferential soft-tissue defects of the lower leg.
Material And Methods: Thirty patients with severe lower leg injuries were treated by free flap transplantation combined with skin grafting and VSD from January 2008 to June 2011. The size of the wounds ranged from 23×8 cm to 44×28 cm and all affected more 70% of the low leg circumferential area.
Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and clinical efficacy of multiple nerve fascicle transfer through posterior approach for reconstruction of shoulder abduction in patients with C5 or upper brachial plexus injury.
Methods: 11 patients (aged between 17 and 56 years) with dysfunction of shoulder abduction post C5 or upper brachial plexus injury were recruited in this study. Among them, four out of 11 patients also had dysfunction of elbow flexion simultaneously.
Objective: To explore the surgical technique and clinical value of treatment for posttraumatic large circular soft tissue defect in the lower extremities using a combination of posterior tibial vascular bridge flap in the unaffected leg and skin graft covered by vacuum sealing drainage (VSD).
Methods: From January 2008 to June 2010, 11 cases with posttraumatic large circular soft tissue defects with deep tissue exposed or partial necrosis in the lower extremities were treated by bridge flaps and combined with free skin graft covered by VSD. There are 7 males and 4 females, with an average age of 32.
Purpose: The aim of the study is to evaluate the surgical technique and clinical significance of the sequential therapy of vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) and free-flap transplantation for children with extensive soft-tissue defects below the knee in the extremities.
Methods: Twenty-two children (aged from 3 to 10 years) received sequential therapy of VSD and free-flap transplantation. All cases suffered from extensive area soft-tissue defects and exposure or partial defects of bones, tendons and other deep tissues.
