Microsurgical Reconstruction of Complex Scalp Defects With Vastus Lateralis Free Flap.

Microsurgery

February 2025

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Department of Precision Medicine in Medical, Surgical and Critical Care (Me.Pre.C.C.), University of Palermo, Palermo, Italy.

Background: Scalp reconstruction is a challenging field for plastic surgeons. In case of large or complex defects, microsurgical-free flaps are usually required. Reconstructive failure can result in high morbidity and in some cases be life-threatening.

Management of pilonidal sinus and recurrences in 2025.

J Visc Surg

January 2025

Department of Digestive Surgery, Clinique de La Sauvegarde, avenue Ben-Gourion, 69009 Lyon, France.

Pilonidal sinus is a common pathology of the intergluteal cleft that can develop into abscess or suppuration. This lesion corresponds histologically to a granuloma that organizes around foreign bodies, most often hairs, and fistulizes to the skin through partially epithelialized orifices. If suppuration and abscess develop, treatment is based either on medical treatment combining analgesics, local antiseptics and sometimes antibiotics, or on emergency incision and drainage in the operating room.

Background: Mohs micrographic surgery offers high cure rates of cutaneous malignancies, but surgeons are often faced with large and complicated defects after tumour removal.

Objectives: To assess the safety and complication rates of large flaps and grafts (measuring ≥30 cm) and larger complex linear closures (CLC, ≥12.5 cm, as defined by the American Medical Association Current Procedural Terminology code set), when performed under local anaesthesia.

Background: Management of the extensive soft tissue injuries remains a significant challenge in orthopedic and plastic reconstructive surgery. Since the thumb is responsible for 40% of the functions of the hand, saving and reconstructing a mangled thumb is essential for the patient's future.

Case Presentation: This case report describes the management of a severe occupational thumb injury in a 25-year-old white Persian male who sustained an occupational injury to his left thumb, resulting in extensive burn, crush injury to the distal and proximal phalanx, and severe soft tissue damage to the first metacarpal, thenar, and palmar areas.

Analysis of the protective effect of hydrogen sulfide over time in ischemic rat skin flaps.

Ann Chir Plast Esthet

January 2025

Department of Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Çukurova University, Adana, Turkey.

Background: Hydrogen sulfide (HS) is a widely studied gasotransmitter, and its protective effect against ischemia-reperfusion damage has been explored in several studies. Therefore, a requirement exists for a comprehensive study about HS effects on ischemia-reperfusion damage in flap surgery. The aim of this study is to examine the effect of hydrogen sulfide by creating ischemia-reperfusion injury in the vascular-stemmed island flap prepared from the rat groin area.
