Peripheral nerve lesions are associated with debilitating long-term consequences. Albeit being essential for evidence-based clinical decision making, epidemiological and etiological data scarce. We therefore aimed to comprehensively analyze factors of peripheral in one the largest cohorts.We screened a total 110,667 patients treated at our level I trauma center between January 2012 July 2020 lesions. Subsequently, demographics, etiologies, concomitant injuries, lesion characteristics were...

Summary: Autologous microsurgical breast reconstruction has become a standard of care. As techniques more individualized and aim for less-invasive approaches, vessels ever smaller in diameter are considered flap anastomosis. Robot-assisted surgery great potential to reduce tremor enhance precise motion. The Symani Surgical System (Medical Microinstruments, Inc., Wilmington, Del.) is robotic platform designed microsurgery. It was used in-flap anastomosis bipedicular deep inferior epigastric...

ABSTRACT Background Vascularization of the distal latissimus dorsi (LD) muscle flap determines success procedure, particularly in large defects. Failure due to necrosis can necessitate reoperation and increase mortality. Indocyanine green fluorescence angiography (ICGFA), as a modality that allows for intraoperative imaging fasciocutaneous perfusion, has revolutionized free surgery. Evidence use perfusion assessment is lacking. We investigate efficacy ICGFA predicting LD flaps. Methods...

Background: End-to-end anastomosis to the internal mammary artery (IMA) is current standard technique for women undergoing autologous breast reconstruction with deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap. This approach fails preserve length of IMA, compromising its availability cardiac surgery use in who develop coronary heart disease. A viable alternative may be end-to-side anastomosis, but data on feasibility currently lacking. Methods: pilot study will involve 60 patients at a...
