Long-Term Follow-Up of Single-Step Free Vascularized Lymph Node Transfer for the Management of Combined Genital and Lower Extremity Lymphedema: A Case Report.

The occurrence of genital lymphedema with lower extremity involvement is rare. There is no standard approach in the management of combined genital and lower extremity lymphedema (CGLL). The limited literature available on the management of CGLL reveals the use of multiple procedures, including vascularized lymph node transfer (VLNT), lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA), and debulking.

Bilateral Microvascular Submandibular Gland Transfer with Implantation of Wharton's Duct in Superior Conjunctival Fornix: A Vision-Saving Procedure for Severe Dry Eye Disease.

Dry eye can initially cause mild symptoms of irritation and may rapidly progress to corneal scarring and blindness. Tear substitutes can only help for mild cases. With the advancement in microsurgical techniques, an option of transferring vascularized salivary glands has shown positive results.

Functional Restoration of a Midforearm Level Amputation using the Second Toe Transfer.

Unilateral midforearm level amputation is a severely debilitating situation. The present solution for this problem is either restoration of function using a prosthetic hand, or a vascularized composite allotransplant (VCA) in some very selected cases. In cases of distal forearm level amputations, even vascularized second toe transfer could be done on the radial side of the hand to achieve good functional restoration.
