Complex Lower Extremity Salvage Using Composite Flap Grafting in COVID-19-Induced Arterial Thrombosis: A Case Report.
JBJS Case Connect
January 2025
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Texas Tech University Health Sciences, Center; Lubbock, Texas.
Case: We present a 42-year-old man who developed extensive left lower extremity arterial thrombosis following COVID-19 pneumonia. Despite multiple revascularization attempts and a below-knee amputation, he faced wound necrosis and insufficient soft tissue coverage. An innovative approach using a pedicled flap and sequential flow-through free flaps was used for limb salvage.

This study verified the efficacy of the Rheocarna, a novel apheresis device, for no-option CLTI or poor-response CLTI after revascularization.
Methods And Results: This multicenter retrospective observational study analyzed 221 patients (221 limbs) with no- or poor-option CLTI (mean [±SD] age 71±10 years; males, 70.
The long-term functional outcome of the mangled upper extremity intricate management. A single center experience.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Musculoskeletal Trauma, University Hospital of Larissa, Larissa, Greece.
Purpose: Severe injury of multiple anatomical structures of the upper extremity can be caused by an extremely violent mechanism during labor and motor vehicle accidents, gunshots and explosions. The mangled upper extremity consists of trauma of at least 3 of 4 tissue types: connective tissue (skin, subcutaneous tissue, tendons, muscles), vessels, nerves, and bones. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the medium and long-term results of the limb salvage management of those injuries in our department.

Tendon grafting is standard for treating tendon defects. Allografts are popular in cruciate ligament reconstruction but not yet in upper limb tendon reconstruction. A scoping review was conducted to map the existing practice of allograft use in hand surgery for tendon reconstruction and identify gaps in knowledge for future research.

Department of Vascular Surgery, Shebin Elkoom Teaching Hospital, Shebin Elkoom, Egypt.
Background: The peroneal artery is known to give branches to the anterior and posterior tibial arteries. Scattered reports in the literature over the last decade failed to provide solid evidence as to the optimum strategy for below-knee targeted revascularization in limited-option patients with critical limb-treating ischemia (CLTI). We sought to determine the benefit of performing single peroneal tibial artery angioplasty revascularization compared with single non-peroneal angiosome-targeted tibial artery angioplasty revascularization for patients presented with CLTI.
