Surgical procedures for reconstruction of lip defects are the use of remaining lip tissue, tissue from the opposite lip, adjacent cheek tissue, distant flaps and microvascular free flaps. The bitemporal (visor) flap is a regional...
متن کاملFree functional gracilis muscle transfer in children with severe sequelae from obstetric brachial plexus palsy
We present 4 children between 6 and 13 years suffering from severe sequelae after a total obstetric brachial plexus lesion resulting in a hand without functional active long finger flexion. They had successfully reanimated long finger flexion using a free functional gracilis muscle transfer. These children initially presented a total obstetric brachial plexus palsy without neurotisation of the ...

متن کاملUse of gracilis muscle free flap for reconstruction of chronic osteomyelitis of foot and ankle.

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...
