Comparison of one-stage free gracilis muscle flap with two-stage method in chronic facial palsy
Abstract Background: Rehabilitation of facial paralysis is one of the greatest challenges faced by reconstructive surgeons today. The traditional method for treatment of patients with facial palsy is the two-stage free gracilis flap which has a long latency period of between the two stages of surgery. Methods: In this paper, we prospectively compared the results of the one-stage gracilis flap ...
متن کاملUse of gracilis muscle free flap for reconstruction of chronic osteomyelitis of foot and ankle.
Despite low donor-site morbidity and a straightforward dissection, the gracilis muscle flap is still for many surgeons a second choice in microsurgical reconstruction of the lower extremity in cases of osteomyelitis. They underscore the difficulty of the procedure, and the problems of insufficient muscle volume and a small sized vascular pedicle. The aim of this study was to assess the reliabil...
متن کاملTongue reconstruction with the gracilis myocutaneous free flap.
We describe our experience in tongue reconstruction using the transverse gracilis myocutaneous (TMG) free flap after major demolitive surgery for advanced cancer. This technique was used in 10 patients: seven underwent total glossectomy and three partial glossectomy. In eight patients we performed motor reinnervation attempting to maintain muscular trophism and gain long-term volumetric stabili...
متن کاملEndoscopic Harvest of Gracilis Muscle Flap for Reconstruction of Rectovaginal Fistula
Intractable rectovaginal fistula (RVF) is a troublesome complication after treatment of perineal cancers or infection. Complex fistulas which are larger than 2.5 cm in diameter or the recurrent cases may be repaired with abdominal procedure or tissue transposition. Gracilis muscle flap is widely used in various reconstruction in regarding to the donor site deformity and bacterial resistance. En...
متن کاملTHE CLINICAL APPLICATION OF PREFABRICATED FREE FLAPS FOR NASAL RECONSTRUCTION
We have found prefabrication of hairless radial forearm free flap to be a useful technique for nasal reconstruction. Prior skin grafting and a suitable period of maturation permits safe, reliable surgery. Its use should be considered in those patients whose forehead tissue is not suitable or in whom appropriate distant flaps are not available, as is often the case with hirsute males.
