The new local flap technique based on cutting out valve flaps combining with the principle of acute dermatension is presented in this article. The method is offered as alternative to plasty with transposed triangular flaps or Z-plasty and it allows to excise pathological scars, provides good esthetic results. On the basis of this technique some methods of eliminating post burn deformities of face, neck, mammary glands, extremities joints, hand and fingers are offered.

Snail Flap for Scalp Reconstruction: Technique and Outcomes.
Head Neck
January 2025
Head and Neck Tumor Center at Siteman Cancer Center, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Missouri, USA.
Objectives: Local flaps are widely described for scalp reconstruction, but there is minimal literature surrounding the snail flap. The objective of this study was to describe the surgical technique and outcomes of scalp reconstruction with the snail flap.
Methods: This case series retrospectively evaluated all consecutive patients undergoing scalp snail flap reconstruction from January 1, 2019 to February 1, 2024.
Chimeric anterolateral thigh-vastus lateralis free flap with propeller skin island for functional quadriceps reconstruction.
J Hand Microsurg

Operative Research Unit of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Campus Bio-Medico, Rome, Italy.
Introduction: Soft-tissue sarcomas arising in the thigh may require total or subtotal compartmentectomy, with subsequent need for functional reconstruction with free functional muscle transfer (FFMT). We present our series, describing a new approach with chimeric propeller antero-lateral thigh-vastus lateralis (ALT-VL) free flap, which allows for independent muscle inset and soft tissue defect resurfacing.
Patient And Methods: A retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database was performed, analyzing all patients referred to Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Campus Bio-Medico, Rome, Italy, between 2018 and 2023 for soft-tissue sarcomas of the thigh requiring wide excision and reconstruction with functional ALT-VL.
Effect of Radiotherapy on the Type and Timing of Breast Reconstruction After Mastectomy in Breast Cancer Patients.
Sisli Etfal Hastan Tip Bul

Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Memorial Hospital, Istanbul, Türkiye.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer type among women according to the World Health Organization data. While breast-conserving surgery has been increasingly performed in patients with early-stage breast cancer, unilateral or bilateral mastectomy is still performed in many patients. With the changes in mastectomy techniques and the development of breast reconstruction techniques over the years, today the aim of breast reconstruction is to create breast tissue in a shape and symmetry that will correct the anatomical defect that occurs after mastectomy, without affecting the patient's oncological treatment.

Eur J Trauma Emerg Surg
January 2025
Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Addenbrookes Hospital, Hills Rd, Cambridge, CB2 0QQ, UK.
Purpose: Management of the elderly patients presenting with open lower limb fractures is challenging due to physiological changes and pre-existing co-morbidities. The aim of this study was to assess the compliance with the British Orthopaedic Association's Standards for Trauma Number 4 (BOAST 4) guidelines in this patient group.
Methods: The study included a retrospective analysis of all the patients aged > 65 years old admitted with open lower limb fracture between 2017 and 2019 to a major trauma centre (MTC) in East of England.
Novel triangle papilla access approach for interdental bone defect regeneration: A case study.
Clin Adv Periodontics
January 2025
Department of Dentistry and Oral Surgery, Keio University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.
Background: Successful periodontal regeneration depends on primary wound closure and interdental papilla preservation. In this case study, we introduce a novel triangle papilla access approach (T-PAA) performed under a surgical microscope for treating interdental bone defects. In this novel approach, buccal incisions were used to access root surfaces and bone defects, avoiding interdental papilla incisions and preventing papillary collapse and necrosis.
