Abstract Background Traditional 2-stage breast reconstruction involves placement of a textured-surface tissue expander (TTE). Recent studies have demonstrated textured surface devices higher propensity for bacterial contamination and biofilm formation. Objectives The purpose this study was to evaluate the safety efficacy smooth expanders (STE) in immediate reconstruction. Methods authors retrospectively reviewed consecutive women who underwent STE from 2016 2017 at 3 institutions....
Vascular injuries in newborns are rare and most commonly occur the process of obtaining vascular access for monitoring organ system functions or interventions critical care. Care neonates poses several challenges, with significant arguably being lack clinical experience such injuries. An algorithm management arterial pediatric patients is investigated reported.A retrospective chart analysis was performed on all consulted injury by plastic surgery service at Texas Children's Hospital between...
A novel postauricular revolving door island flap and cartilage graft combination was employed to correct a large defect on the anterior ear of an 84-year-old man who underwent Mohs micrographic surgery for antihelical squamous cell carcinoma. The measured 4.6 × 2.4 cm spanned antihelix, scapha, small portion helix, segment underlying cartilage, with loss structural integrity folding ear. repair involved harvesting 1.5 2 exposed from scaphoid fossa then sculpting suturing it remnant in order...
Abstract Background Pneumothorax is a rare complication of liposuction resulting from injury to the lung parenchyma. Objectives This study aimed determine incidence pneumothorax complicating liposuction, describe an archetypal presentation, identify risk factors, and propose options for reduction. Methods In retrospective chart review, procedures performed over 16-year period by 8 surgeons in 1 practice were screened pneumothorax. Cases featuring analyzed ascertain pathogenesis. Results...
Abstract Background Locally advanced malignancies of the upper torso and shoulder girdle (UT‐SG) necessitate extensive resection complex reconstruction. Due to infrequent nature these operations, a global reconstructive algorithm has not been defined. Methods A retrospective review all patients who received surgery following malignant tumor extirpation in UT‐SG from 2008 2018 at University Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Factors predicting need for flap reconstruction risk postoperative...
Background: Oncologic resections involving both the spine and chest wall commonly require immediate soft-tissue reconstruction. The authors hypothesized that reconstructions of composite thoracic would have a higher complication rate than for limited to alone. Methods: performed retrospective analysis all consecutive patients who underwent vertebrectomy reconstruction from 2002 2017. Patients were divided into two groups: those whose defect was required resection wall. Results: One hundred...
Abstract Background The use of tourniquets and their role in extremity-based microsurgery has not been thoroughly investigated. purpose this study was to investigate tourniquet its associated outcomes complications. authors hypothesize that enhance visualization, bloodless approaches vessel harvest, flap elevation, anastomosis without added Methods A retrospective chart review completed for patients who had undergone with the a between January 2018 February 2022 at two large academic...
PURPOSE: Oncologic resections of the upper torso and shoulder girdle are rare but sometimes required for aggressive cancers such as sarcoma. Extirpative defects frequently include exposure major neurovascular structures, bone, viscera that significantly impact patient function. Due to rarity these resections, an advanced reconstructive algorithm has yet be defined. We present largest series date oncologic reconstructions in this region, including massive due disarticulation forequarter...
