Objective: The surgical team in this study examined the efficacy of a modified reverse sural neurocutaneous flap repair in treating soft tissue defects of the ankle and foot caused by accidents.

Methods: This study enrolled 89 patients treated for soft tissue defects of the ankle or foot between January 2007 and December 2023. The patients were divided into two groups: 44 patients underwent a modified reverse sural neurocutaneous flap repair, while 45 received traditional treatment.

Versatility of the Anterolateral Thigh Flap for Abdominal Wall Reconstruction.

Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open

January 2025

From the Department of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery, Cantonal Hospital Aarau, Aarau, Switzerland.

Background: Abdominal wall reconstruction represents an ambitious and demanding challenge. This study aimed to illustrate the versatility of the anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap in its different designs for the reconstruction of complex defects of the abdominal wall.

Methods: Charts of patients with complex abdominal wall defects who underwent a reconstruction with an ALT flap at the University Hospital of Zurich (2018-2020) were reviewed retrospectively.

Introduction: The reverse sural flap (RSF) is a random-type, pedicled flap based on sural artery perforators indicated for traumatic lower-extremity wounds. The RSF has demonstrated comparable results to free flap placement in the adult population for reconstruction of distal third defects, but few reports describe its application and outcomes in the pediatric population.

Methods: We investigated RSF application in pediatric patients (<18 years of age) through systematic review and meta-analysis.

Soft tissue injury in open fracture of the lower extremity represents a challenging trauma that requires complex strategies to reconstruct both bony and soft tissue defects. Various options are available to cover the soft tissue defect in the lower extremities, from simple skin grafting to local fasciocutaneous and muscle flaps. However, when the injury is extensive and involves a large surface area, options for treatment of local flap coverage become limited.

A Novel Reconstruction Approach After Skin Cancer Ablation Using Lateral Arm Free Flap: A Serial Case Report.

Medicina (Kaunas)

December 2024

Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seoul National University College of Medicine, Seongnam 13620, Republic of Korea.

: The lateral arm flap has been a very useful choice for the reconstruction of small to medium-sized defects, such as in the hands, extremities, and oral head and neck area. Its versatile characteristics and surgical feasibility allow this flap to be widely applied, but its reconstructive potential in the facial subunit after tumor ablation procedures has never been reported. In this study, we aimed to utilize the advantages of this flap to carry out facial temple subunit defect reconstruction.
