Reconstruction with the latissimus dorsi muscle flap, combined with the serratus anterior fascia flap, was performed to cover two large and separate palmar and dorsal forearm skin defects in a patient, whose hand had been replanted 20 days earlier after traumatic amputation at the distal forearm level. As a result, a total forearm amputation was salvaged by microsurgical replantation and a free combined flap of the subscapular system. This new application of the combined flap allowed the reconstruction of large and separate wounds of the replanted hand, and provided gliding surfaces for tendons.

Total nasal reconstruction represents a complex challenge, requiring restoration of all three anatomical planes while preserving respiratory function. This procedure has significant therapeutic, aesthetic, social and professional implications for patients. We share our academic experience of reconstruction using a folded microanastomosed radial forearm flap (FRFF) combined with a paramedian forehead flap, using the technique of F.

Background: Defects of the nose present complex reconstructive challenges to the plastic surgeon. We present our experience with using the dorsal nasal flap (DNF) to provide a durable reconstruction even in sizable defects that would otherwise be considered necessitating a paramedian forehead flap.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of patients who underwent reconstruction by DNF following resection of skin cancers on the nose.

Introduction: Carpal tunnel syndrome is a challenging condition when conventional carpal tunnel revision surgery fails to alleviate symptoms. This study aims to assess the outcomes of combining carpal tunnel revision surgery with a synovial wrap for cases of recurrent carpal tunnel syndrome in patients who had adhered median nerve, with a minimum 1-year follow-up.
Patients And Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 10 patients (mean age: 73.

Background: Aim of the present paper is to report the preliminary results of CAD-CAM (Computer-Aided Design - Computer-Aided Manufacturing) technology application to distal femur nonunion treatment with free fibula flap, custom made medial plating and maintenance of a stable lateral locking plate.
Methods: Two cases of distal femur nonunion that occurred after lateral locking plating were treated and prospectively followed-up. Surgical planning followed the same preoperative protocol adopted for mandibular CAD-CAM reconstruction.

Background: Newer generation platelet concentrates, such as advanced platelet-rich fibrin plus (A-PRF+) obtained following low-speed centrifugation concept and horizontal platelet-rich fibrin (H-PRF) obtained from swing out and bucket system, showed increased platelet entrapment and growth factor release in the in-vitro studies. This prospective study aimed to evaluate and compare the clinical outcomes of A-PRF+ and H-PRF membranes in the treatment of gingival recession defects. The objectives of this study were to compare the changes in the recession height (RH) and the mean root coverage percentage (MRC%) between and within the research groups.
