Reconstruction of Periparotid Defects Using Temporoparietal Fascia Flap with Layered Acellular Human Dermal Allograft

Posttraumatic eyebrow reconstruction with hair-bearing temporoparietal fascia flap

The temporoparietal fascia flap has been extensively used in craniofacial reconstructions. However, its use for eyebrow reconstruction has been sporadically reported. We describe a successfully repaired hair-bearing temporoparietal fascia flap after traumatic avulsion of eyebrow. Temporoparietal fascia flap is a versatile tool and should be considered as a therapeutic option by all plastic surg...

Anterior Capsule Reconstruction Technique With an Acellular Dermal Allograft

An irreparable subscapularis may have a debilitating influence on glenohumeral joint biomechanics. Traditional treatment approaches are focused on tendon transfers, among which the most popular are pectoralis major and latissimus dorsi transfers. However, these techniques present significant retear rates, possible nerve injuries, and altered biomechanics. Other techniques like tibialis anterior...

Septal perforation repair with acellular human dermal allograft.

BACKGROUND Connective tissue autografts are commonly used as interpositional grafts between septal flaps in the repair of septal perforations. The most common graft materials used include temporalis fascia and pericranium, both of which are accompanied by donor site morbidity, do not provide septal bulk, and are exceedingly thin and difficult to manage. OBJECTIVE To study the use of an acellu...

Prosthetic Breast Reconstruction with Acellular Dermal Matrix

Mid-substance peroneal tendon defects augmented with an acellular dermal matrix allograft.

BACKGROUND This study evaluated an acellular dermal matrix allograft augmentation for chronic mid-substance peroneous longus and brevis tendon tears. The hypothesis was that acellular dermal matrix allograft augmentation of chronic longitudinal mid-substance or complete tears of both peroneal tendons provides sufficient initial strength to allow a rapid rehabilitation program. MATERIALS AND M...
