RESUMO
Groin wound dehiscence and infection are a common complication of femoral artery exposure. In patients with prosthetic conduits placed in the groin, these complications can lead to graft infection or anastomotic dehiscence with hemorrhage. Sartorius flaps can be useful in preventing graft infections or anastomotic breakdown in the setting of wound infections. Prophylactic sartorius flaps have been suggested to be a useful adjunct in patients who are at high risk for groin complications. Standard sartorius flaps can be difficult to perform and increase the operative time. We present our experience with a modified sartorius flap, a Transversely Hemisected Sartorius (THT), which avoids dissection to the anterior superior iliac spine. Patients who received femoral artery exposure and a modified prophylactic sartorius flap were included in this case series. The Penn Groin Assessment Scale (PGAS) was calculated for each patient and our primary outcome was the rate of deep space wound infections. Fifteen patients received a THT muscle flap. The average age of the cohort was 67.5 (35-86) years. Eight (50%) were male. The mean PGAS was 2.5 (0-6). Eight (50%) groins had a prosthetic conduit underlying the flap. Four (25%) patients had infrainguinal bypass, 3 (18.8%) for femoral-femoral bypass, and 1 (6.3%) patient received aortic-bifemoral bypass. Eight (50%) patients received sartorius flap after femoral artery exposure for thromboembolectomy, endarterectomy, or access complications. Six (37.5%) patients developed superficial surgical site infections however no deep space infections or prosthetic graft excisions resulted. This procedure was effective in preventing graft infections in all patients with high-risk features for groin infection in our retrospective case series. The segmental blood supply is maintained while providing good coverage of the femoral vessels with this rotational flap.

BACKGROUND: Reconstruction of lower lip defects is challenging because of the functional and aesthetic demands of the lower face. We review the functional and aesthetic outcomes of the Karapandzic-type flaps for reconstructing lower lip defects. METHODS: A retrospective review of patients who underwent repair using Karapandzic-type flaps. RESULTS: Fifty patients with lower lip defects ranging from 20% to 95% (mean 59.2% ± 20%) were included. Eighteen patients (36%) were repaired using a bilateral flap, and 32 (64%) were reconstructed using a unilateral flap design. All patients had preservation of oral competency and a satisfactory aesthetic result. No patient complained of microstomia. A complication rate of 8% was noted ( n = 4) with postoperative wound infection and small areas of dehiscence. There was no statistically significant difference in complication rates in patients older than 75 years, in patients with a history of head/neck radiation, or in defects greater than 70% of lower lip breadth. CONCLUSION: Karapandzic-type flaps are versatile and reliable for the reconstruction of a broad range of lower lip defects. This one-stage procedure can produce superior functional and aesthetic results as compared with other local and distant flaps with minimal risk of functional microstomia.

IMPORTANCE: Functional and cosmetic outcomes following Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) are poorly studied in individuals with skin of color (SOC). Postinflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) may be long-lasting and highly distressing. SOC individuals are particularly susceptible to PIH following procedures. Objective: To characterize factors that contribute to the development of PIH following MMS in SOC. DESIGN: This retrospective study included 72 SOC individuals with 83 cases of keratinocyte carcinoma treated with MMS between August 2020 and August 2021 at a single medical center in the Bronx, New York. RESULTS: Postinflammatory hyperpigmentation following Mohs micrographic surgery was more common in Fitzpatrick skin types (FST) IV to V (48.0%) compared to FST I to III (18.2%; P=0.006). Grafts and granulation resulted in higher rates of PIH compared to linear repairs and flaps (87.5% vs 30.7%; P=0.003). Cases with postoperative complications resulted in higher rates of PIH compared to cases without (81.8% vs 29.2%; P=0.001). In a subset analysis of linear repairs, polyglactin 910 as a subcutaneous suture produced a higher rate of PIH compared to poliglecaprone 25 (46.2% vs 7.1%; P=0.015). Conclusions and Relevance: Individuals with SOC (FST IV to V) are more likely to develop PIH following MMS. Grafts and granulation lead to PIH more often than linear repairs and flaps. Postoperative complications significantly increase the risk of PIH. Surgeons should consider these risk factors during surgical planning in an effort to mitigate PIH in SOC individuals. Studies with larger sample sizes are indicated. J Drugs Dermatol. 2024;23(5):316-321. doi:10.36849/JDD.8146.

PURPOSE: Sunken Skin Flap Syndrome (SSFS) is an uncommon, delayed complication after craniectomy characterized by a functional plateau or decline with variable neurologic symptoms, improving after cranioplasty. SSFS negatively impacts the rehabilitation course, with subjective reports of functional improvement after cranioplasty. However, no studies have assessed the impact of cranioplasty on functional recovery rate. This case series aims to analyze SSFS manifestations and management while awaiting cranioplasty. Also, to assess the role of cranioplasty on rehabilitation outcomes and recovery rate in SSFS patients. METHODS: Four patients were identified with SSFS in inpatient rehabilitation. Each patient had unique clinical manifestations, with multiple strategies used for symptomatic control. Patients spent an average of 23 days in rehabilitation with SSFS symptoms before cranioplasty. After cranioplasty, all patients had SSFS symptom resolution. Comparing change in functional independence measure (FIM) scores and FIM efficiency pre-and post-cranioplasty rehabilitation course, a mean improvement of 23 and 0.72 occurred after cranioplasty, respectively. CONCLUSION: A diagnosis of SSFS should be considered in craniectomy patients exhibiting functional decline or plateau with associated neurological symptoms. This study suggests that FIM and FIM efficiency increases in SSFS patients after cranioplasty, supporting prompt cranioplasty to improve functional outcomes and minimize rehabilitation delays.

BACKGROUND: Abdominoplasty procedures continue to evolve because combining techniques such as suction-assisted lipectomy or direct subscarpal lipectomy have proven to be powerful adjuncts to achieve optimal aesthetic results. However, concern has been expressed about combining techniques simultaneously given the potential to damage the vascularity of the abdominoplasty flap. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of simultaneous direct subscarpal lipectomy combined with liposuction in abdominoplasty patients. METHODS: A 4-year retrospective review of consecutive abdominoplasties (n = 200) performed by a single surgeon was conducted. Liposuction of the abdominal flap and flanks was performed in all patients. After raising the abdominoplasty flap, undermining was performed to just beyond the xyphoid, the lower rib margins superiorly, and the anterior axillary line laterally. Fat deep to Scarpa's fascia was then removed by direct tangential excision in all zones of the abdominal flap. RESULTS: The patients had a mean age of 42.19 years and BMI of 28.10â kg/m2; the mean follow-up time was 7 months. Seroma occurred in 13 patients (6.5%), superficial wound dehiscence treated with local wound care in 16 patients (8%), hypertrophic scarring in 16 patients (8%), partial umbilical necrosis in 1 patient (0.5%), and partial umbilical epidermolysis in 6 patients (3%). No patients experienced major or minor full-thickness tissue loss. No patients needed reoperation. CONCLUSIONS: Simultaneous direct excision of subscarpal fat with liposuction of the abdomen and flanks does not appear to subject any zone of the abdominoplasty flap to increased risks of vascular compromise. No flap necroses were observed. The technique described is safe and may provide superior abdominoplasty results.

BACKGROUND: In the past, several publications have described breast reconstruction techniques that utilize the contralateral breast; however, interest diminished because of technical difficulty, scarring, and poor aesthetic results. OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to present a new breast reconstruction technique that uses a combination of the breast-pectoralis flap and the abdominal advancement flap. METHODS: This retrospective study analyzed the results and complications of 20 consecutive breast reconstructions with the breast-pectoralis flap technique. RESULTS: The authors present a series of 20 breast reconstructions that utilized the breast-pectoralis flap. Delayed breast reconstruction was performed in 13 cases (65%), breast reconstruction in 5 patients (25%) with Poland syndrome, sequela correction after a chest wall sarcoma in 1 patient (5%), and sequela correction after breast cystic lymphangioma resection in 1 patient (5%). One complication required surgical reintervention without long-term consequences. The outcomes were considered very good in 50% of the cases, good in 45%, and fair in 5%. CONCLUSIONS: The combination of the breast-pectoralis flap and the abdominal advancement flap is an interesting advance in breast reconstruction. Evaluation of the presented cases suggests wider indications for this technique.

Background and Objectives: Chest wall defect reconstruction is a complex procedure aimed at restoring thoracic structural integrity after trauma, tumor removal, or congenital issues. In this study, postoperative complications were investigated to improve the care of patients with these critical conditions. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study of chest wall reconstructions from 2004 to 2023 was conducted at Klinikum Nürnberg and Evangelisches Waldkrankenhaus Spandau-Berlin. Data included patient demographics, comorbidities, defect etiology, surgery details, and complications using the Clavien-Dindo classification. Results: Among the 30 patients included in the study, a total of 35 complications occurred in 35 thoracic wall defect reconstructions. These complications were classified into 22 major and 13 minor cases. Major complications were more common in patients with cancer-related defects, and considerable variations were observed between free flap and pedicled flap surgeries. Notably, the use of the anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap with vastus lateralis muscle demonstrated promise, exhibiting fewer complications in select cases. The reconstruction of chest wall defects is associated with substantial complications regardless of the etiology of the defect and the particular surgical procedure used. Interestingly, there was a lower complication rate with free flap surgery than with pedicled flaps. Conclusions: The ALT flap with vastus lateralis muscle deserves further research in this field of reconstruction. Multidisciplinary approaches and informed patient discussions are crucial in this complex surgical field, emphasizing the need for ongoing research and technique refinement.

BACKGROUND: Two techniques for paraspinous muscle flap closure of spine surgeries have been described: one with tension-free mobilization of the muscle flaps approximated at the midline and one with perforators more aggressively dissected to allow for overlapping of the flaps. We seek to compare the surgical outcomes in patients who underwent either type of complex spinal closure as no investigation has yet evaluated a superior technique. METHODS: An institutional review board (IRB)-approved retrospective analysis was conducted on all patients who underwent spine surgery followed by locoregional muscle flap complex closure performed by a single plastic surgeon between January 2016 and July 2021. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on which closure method was employed. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were computed by multivariable logistic regression with Firth's correction. RESULTS: One hundred and 10 patients with similar baseline demographics were included. There were significantly more smokers (15% vs. 0%, P = 0.02) and a significantly greater rate of postoperative radiation (40% vs. 17%, P = 0.009) in the overlapping group. After controlling for smoking and postoperative radiation, the incidence of surgical site infection, skin necrosis, dehiscence, hematoma, and seroma did not differ between the groups. The procedure length per centimeter of closure was shorter in the midline approximation group, although this data fell just short of significance (3.2 vs. 3.8 minutes/cm, P = 0.08). CONCLUSIONS: The present study demonstrates that both the overlapping and midline approximation of muscle flaps are equally safe and effective strategies for locoregional closure of spinal wounds.

We report a case of a woman in her 30s who underwent femtosecond LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) in both eyes to correct her simple myopic astigmatism. After the surgery, both eyes developed diffuse lamellar keratitis, and intensive topical steroids were initiated to control the same. Subsequently, central toxic keratopathy (CTK) developed bilaterally. Three weeks after the surgery, the right eye showed signs of progressive epithelial ingrowth involving the pupillary area. Surgical intervention in the form of flap relift followed by debridement of the epithelial cells and an alcohol interface wash were performed to treat the same. This is the first report of an epithelial ingrowth following CTK after femtosecond LASIK.

OBJECTIVE: The Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE)-Perf scale was developed and validated to measure symptoms associated with nasal septal perforations. This study reports the application of the NOSE-Perf scale to evaluate symptom change following septal perforation repair. METHODS: Patients with NOSE-Perf evaluations ≥6 months following attempted perforation closure from July 2018 to December 2021 utilizing bilateral nasal mucosal flaps with an interposition graft were eligible for study inclusion. Change in NOSE-Perf scores were noted. Patient demographics, perforation size, and concurrent functional procedures were analyzed for impact on symptom outcomes. RESULTS: One-hundred and seventeen patients met the study criteria. Seventy-nine (67.5%) of the patients were female and the mean (range) age at surgery was 47.3 (14-78) years. Repair failure was noted in 7 (6.0%) patients. Mean (SD) preoperative NOSE-Perf score was 25.3 (95% CI, 23.5-27.1) and postoperative score was 7.9 (95% CI, 6.5-9.3). Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) was estimated and greater than 91% of patients had improvement above this threshold. Patient age, perforation size, or concurrent functional procedures did not impact outcomes. Postoperative scores at short (2-4 months), intermediate (5-8 months), and long-term (≥9 months) time periods showed significant improvement (all p < 0.001) compared to preoperative NOSE-Perf scores. CONCLUSION: Significant reduction in nasal symptoms as measured by the NOSE-Perf scale is noted following bilateral mucosal flap repair. Although the nose does not completely normalize following repair, clinically important improvement was noted in at least 91% of patients. The NOSE-Perf scale is positioned to play a role in the standardization of septal perforation evaluation and outcomes assessment. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4 Laryngoscope, 134:3067-3072, 2024.

OBJECTIVE: Gynecological cancer-related lower extremity lymphedema (GC-LEL), a chronic, progressive condition, lacks a standardized treatment. Currently, supraclavicular vascularized lymph node transfer (SC-VLNT) is a favored approach in the treatment of lymphedema, and there is a trend toward combination technology. This study conducts a comparative analysis of three techniques for treating GC-LEL with simultaneous SC-VLNT and liposuction. METHODS: A cohort of 35 patients with GC-LEL was examined, comprising 13 patients who underwent single lymph nodes flap with a skin paddle (SLNF+P), 12 who received single lymph nodes flap without a skin paddle (SLNF), and 10 who accepted dual lymph nodes flap without a skin paddle (DLNF). Patient demographics and outcomes were meticulously documented, covering intra- and postoperative variables. RESULTS: The median limb volume reduction were 56.4% (SLNF+P), 60.8% (SLNF), and 50.5% (DLNF) in stage II, and 54.0% (SLNF+P), 59.8% (SLNF), and 54.4% (DLNF) in stage III. DLNF group procedures entailed longer flap harvesting and transplantation times. The SLNF+P group, on average, had an 8-day postoperative hospitalization, longer than others. All patients noted subjective improvements in Lymphedema Quality of Life scores, with lymphoscintigraphy revealing enhanced lymphatic flow in 29 of the 35 cases. A notable decrease in cellulitis incidence was observed. Additionally, the occurrence of cellulitis decreased significantly, except for DLNF (Stage â ¡). The median follow-up time was 16 months (range, 12-36 months), with no reported severe postoperative complications. CONCLUSIONS: For advanced GC-LEL, SLNF combined with liposuction is a preferred treatment, offering fewer complications, shorter operative time, and hospitalization.

BACKGROUND: Clinically relevant postpancreatectomy hemorrhage occurs in 10% to 15% of patients after pancreaticoduodenectomy, mainly in association with clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula. Prevention of postpancreatectomy hemorrhage by arterial coverage with a round ligament plasty or an omental flap is controversial. This study assessed the impact of arterial coverage with an original retromesenteric omental flap on postpancreatectomy hemorrhage after pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS: This single-center retrospective study included 812 open pancreaticoduodenectomies (2012-2021) and compared 146 procedures with arterial coverage using retromesenteric omental flap to 666 pancreaticoduodenectomies without arterial coverage. The Fistula Risk Score was calculated. The primary endpoint was a 90-day clinically relevant postpancreatectomy hemorrhage rate according to the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery classification. RESULTS: There were more patients with a Fistula Risk Score ≥7 in the arterial coverage-retromesenteric omental flap group: 18 (12%) versus 48 (7%) (P < .01). Clinically relevant postpancreatectomy hemorrhage was less frequent in the arterial coverage- retromesenteric omental flap group than in the no arterial coverage group: 5 (3%) versus 66 (10%), respectively (P = .01). Clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula occurred in 28 (19%) patients in the arterial coverage- retromesenteric omental flap group compared with 165 (25%) in the no arterial coverage group (P = .001). There were fewer reoperations for postpancreatectomy hemorrhage or postoperative pancreatic fistula in the arterial coverage- retromesenteric omental flap group: 1 (0.7%) versus 32 (5%) in the no arterial coverage group (P = .023). In multivariate analysis, arterial coverage with retromesenteric omental flap was an independent protective factor of clinically relevant postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (odds ratio 0.33; 95% confidence interval [0.12-0.92], P = .034) whereas postoperative pancreatic fistula of any grade (odds ratio = 10.1; 95% confidence interval: 5.1-20.3, P < .001) was predictive of this complication. CONCLUSION: Arterial coverage with retromesenteric omental flap can reduce rates of clinically relevant postpancreatectomy hemorrhage after pancreaticoduodenectomy. This easy and costless technique should be prospectively evaluated to confirm these results.

Introducción: Las recesiones gingivales son afecciones de las encías, que son muy frecuentes y podrían provocar repercusiones estéticas, hipersensibilidad dentinaria y tener más tendencia a la formación de lesiones cervicales. Es necesario recubrir la superficie radicular mediante técnicas regenerativas periodontales. Objetivo: Comparar la cantidad de recubrimiento radicular, la profundidad al sondaje y el nivel de inserción clínica, empleando las técnicas de colgajo de reposición coronal, con y sin injerto de tejido conectivo, en pacientes con recesiones gingivales Miller I y II. Métodos: Se incluyeron un total de 16 pacientes con recesiones gingivales Miller clase I y II, de los cuales se seleccionaron 50 piezas dentarias tratadas quirúrgicamente para cubrir las recesiones. Se utilizaron las técnicas de colgajo de reposición coronal, con y sin injerto de tejido conectivo. Las mediciones clínicas fueron comparadas al inicio y a los tres meses posoperatorios. Resultados: Al tercer mes poscirugía los resultados del recubrimiento radicular, profundidad al sondaje y el nivel de inserción clínica para la técnica colgajo de reposición coronal con injerto de tejido conectivo, fueron 0,96 ± 1,33; 0,87 ± 0,63; 1,83 ± 1,7 y para la técnica colgajo de reposición coronal fueron 1,44 ± 1,19; 1,04 ± 0,52; 2,48 ± 1,48, respectivamente. Al comparar el recubrimiento radicular intergrupo no se encontraron diferencias significativas (p = 0,11). Sin embargo, al comparar la profundidad al sondaje intergrupo (p = 0,04), el nivel de inserción clínica intergrupo (p = 0,001) y todas las mediciones clínicas intragrupo (p = 0,001), se encontraron diferencias significativas. Conclusiones: La técnica de colgajo de reposición coronal, con y sin injerto de tejido conectivo, demostró diferencias significativas en la profundidad al sondaje y el nivel de inserción clínica en recesiones gingivales Miller I y II. No se alcanzaron diferencias significativas para el recubrimiento radicular en ambas técnicas a los 3 meses de seguimiento(AU)
Introduction: Gingival recession is a very common gum condition which may result in aesthetic alterations and dentin hypersensitivity, and increase the probability of cervical lesions. It is necessary to cover the root surface using periodontal regeneration techniques. Objective: Compare the amount of root coverage, probing depth and clinical insertion level, using coronally repositioned flap techniques with and without connective tissue graft in patients with Miller I and II gingival recessions. Methods: A total 16 patients with Miller class I and II gingival recessions were included in the study, from whom 50 teeth were selected which had been treated surgically to cover the recessions. The techniques used were coronally repositioned flap with and without connective tissue graft. Clinical measurements were compared at the start of the postoperative period and three months later. Results: Three months after surgery, root coverage, probing depth and clinical insertion level were 0.96 ± 1.33; 0.87 ± 0.63; 1.83 ± 1.7, respectively, for coronally repositioned flap with connective tissue graft, and 1.44 ± 1.19; 1.04 ± 0.52; 2.48 ± 1.48, respectively, for coronally repositioned flap. Root coverage intergroup comparison did not find any significant differences (p = 0.11). However, intergroup comparison of probing depth (p = 0.04) and clinical insertion level (p = 0.001), and all the intragroup clinical measurements (p = 0.001) did find significant differences. Conclusions: Coronally repositioned flap technique with and without connective tissue graft showed significant differences in terms of probing depth and clinical insertion level in Miller I and II gingival recessions. At three months' follow-up, no root coverage significant differences were observed for either technique(AU)

ABSTRACT Introduction: The magnitude of the resections of head and neck tumors depends on the tumor size, the adequacy of the margins and factors inherent to the patient. The temporal muscle is an excellent option for reconstructing defects in areas surrounding its implantation site. Objective: To demonstrate the versatility of the temporal myofascial flap for reconstruction after oncological head and neck surgery, at the "Camilo Cienfuegos Gorriarán" Provincial University Hospital from January 2017 to December 2018. Methods: A retrospective review of the operative reports of the cases intervened with oncological head and neck surgery was performed in the maxillofacial surgery service; A sample was taken from patients who underwent reconstruction of the surgical defect, using a temporal myofascial flap. Results: 12 patients underwent reconstruction immediately, in a single surgical time. The defect occurred mainly in skin lesions. The average age of the patients was 66.2 years. An equitable distribution in terms of sex was observed, with 6 patients for each group. Follow-up ranged from 2 to 20 months, with a mean of 11.25 months, of which all the patients were alive and controlled. Conclusions: The temporary flap continues to be a valid option for reconstruction in head and neck cancer surgery. Necrosis did not occur in the revised series, which makes it a very safe flap, with good aesthetic and functional results and with good tolerance to adjuvant oncospecific treatments(AU)

Abstract: Background: Basal cell carcinoma is the most common type of skin cancer. Although the literature provides a great deal of information on the recurrences of basal cell carcinoma, studies about these indices addressing only the cases in which flaps and/or grafts have been performed for surgical reconstruction of the excision of this tumor are still lacking. Objectives: To evaluate rates of recurrence of basal cell carcinoma submitted to conventional surgery with pre-established margins and reconstruction by flaps or grafts. Methods: A retrospective and observational study was performed through the analysis of 109 patients, who met inclusion criteria with 116 basal cell carcinomas submitted to conventional surgery and pre-established safety margins, requiring reconstruction through a graft or cutaneous flap. This work was performed the small surgeries sector of Dermatology of the Specialty Outpatient Clinic of the University Hospital of the State University of Londrina, between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2015. The following data were collected and inserted in an Excel worksheet: name, registration number of the hospital patient, sex, age, tumor location, histopathological type of BCC, procedure performed (type of flap and/or graft), follow-up time, recurrence. Results: Of the 116 procedures, there were recurrences in 3 cases (2.6%) that were located in the nasal region and related to sclerodermiform or micronodular histological types. Study limitations: Retrospective nature of the study. Conclusion: The present study of the dermatology department of this university hospital showed a low rate of recurrence of basal cell carcinoma in cases where flaps and/or grafts were used in the surgical reconstruction.

Introdução: Lesões que acometem as mãos com importante perda cutânea frequentemente requerem retalhos para cobertura precoce, visto que permitem melhor reabilitação. Dentre as opções, o retalho interósseo posterior reverso do antebraço é o mais utilizado para defeitos no dorso da mão e punho, com baixas taxas de complicações. Normalmente, esse retalho não é utilizado para a reconstrução de defeitos em região palmar, já que geralmente não alcança esse local. Relato de caso: Apresentamos o caso de um paciente com queimadura elétrica de terceiro grau, em palma da mão direita, cuja reconstrução foi realizada com o uso do retalho interósseo posterior reverso do antebraço, após debridamentos conservadores, no 14o dia após a queimadura. O paciente apresentou boa evolução pós-operatória, sem complicações ou sequelas funcionais a longo prazo. Conclusão: O retalho interósseo posterior reverso do antebraço permite cobertura adequada de lesões em palma da mão, preservando sua funcionalidade.
Introduction: Lesions affecting the hands with significant skin loss often require flaps for early coverage, as these permit faster healing. Among the various options, the reverse posterior interosseous flap of the forearm is most commonly used for defects involving the back of the hand and wrist due to low complication rates. Normally, this flap is not used for the reconstruction of defects in the palmar region since its distal reach is insufficient. Case report: We present the case of a male patient with third-degree electrical burns on his right palm, whose reconstruction was performed on the 14th day postinjury using the reverse posterior interosseous flap of the forearm after conservative debridement. The patient presented good postoperative evolution, without long-term complications or functional sequelae. Conclusion: The reverse posterior interosseous flap of the forearm permits adequate coverage of palm injuries, preserving its functionality.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Patients with skin lesions have changes in their personal appearance, not only because of the injury itself, but also because of the surgical treatments they must undergo. In the facial region these lesions are clearly evident and have greater aesthetic importance. Objective: Characterize a case of three-dimensional alar nasal reconstruction by exeresis of basal cell carcinoma in a geriatric patient. Clinical case: An 81-year-old male patient with a personal history of hypertension reports the presence of a nasal lesion of 5-month evolution with progressive growth. At facial physical examination an alteration is detected of the contour of the right nasal wing due to a lesion with a diagnostic impression of basal cell carcinoma. After the preoperative check-up, it is decided to perform three-dimensional exeresis and reconstruction by cartilaginous graft of the auricular concha and nasogenian pedicled flap. At four weeks, the second surgical act is scheduled for disconnection of the pedicled flap. Conclusions: The nasogenian pedicled flap combined with an autologous cartilage graft constituted an excellent therapeutic option that allowed three-dimensional nasal reconstruction, obtaining good aesthetic and functional effects, as well as high patient satisfaction with the results obtained(AU)

Introdução: O retalho miocutâneo de peitoral maior é um dos mais usados na reconstrução de defeitos da cabeça e pescoço, porém com restrição ao terço médio da face. Com técnicas de dissecção de perfurantes, consegue-se alongar mais o pedículo, obtendo coberturas da região orbito-fronto-parietal. Relato de Caso: Paciente masculino de 63 anos apresentando carcinoma espinocelular invasivo pouco diferenciado, que após sua ressecção cirúrgica apresentou defeito final de 12,0 x 18,0cm na região órbito-fronto-parietal direita com exposição de dura-máter, seio frontal e órbita superior direita. Foi desenhado retalho de peitoral maior com ilha cutânea de dimensões iguais ao defeito na região paraesternal direita, desde o quarto espaço intercostal até a região subcostal (estendido). O pedículo foi seccionado após 4 semanas. A cobertura foi efetiva, sem complicações maiores e resultado estético satisfatório. Conclusão: Este retalho mostrou ser uma excelente opção para reconstrução do terço superior da cabeça quando existam limitações para a realização de microcirurgia.
