Fat-augmented Temporal Fascia Flap for Defect Coverage following External Auditory Canal Cancer Resection.

Malignant tumors of the external auditory canal are rare and require surgical interventions such as lateral temporal bone resection (LTBR) for localized cases. This study introduces a novel approach, the lipofilling fascia flap technique, for external auditory canal reconstruction following LTBR or modified LTBR. The technique involves augmenting the temporal fascia flap with autologous fat grafting, aiming to enhance volume and improve outcomes.

Lymphaticovenular Anastomosis for Lymphorrhea after Expander-based Breast Reconstruction: A Case Report.

Refractory axillary lymphorrhea is a postoperative complication of breast cancer with no established standard treatment. Recently, lymphaticovenular anastomosis (LVA) was used to treat not only lymphedema but also lymphorrhea and lymphocele in the inguinal and pelvic regions. However, only a few reports have been published on the treatment of axillary lymphatic leakage with LVA.
