Tracheal reconstruction using S-shaped skin flaps and a conchal cartilage graft.
We have devised a technique of two-stage tracheal reconstruction using S-shaped skin flaps and an aural conchal cartilage graft. During the first operation, S-shaped skin flaps were elevated before resection of the trachea. A tracheocutaneous fistula was created at the tracheal defect using S-shaped skin flaps while placing the conchal cartilage graft underneath. During the second operation, a ...
متن کاملThe conchal cartilage graft in nasal reconstruction.
Graft selection remains a problem in nasal reconstruction, where the use of autologous cartilage still provides the best resistance to infection and a low degree of resorption. As the nasal septum is often absent or insufficient in such patients, the auricular concha offers a valid alternative. A group of 53 patients suffering from developmental iatrogenic and post-traumatic nasal pathologies w...
متن کاملTracheal reconstruction with free composite cartilage graft: a case report.
Tracheal resection followed by an end-to-end anastomosis has been the method of choice for the treatment of tracheal neoplasms. We hereby report a 40-year-old female patient in whom we performed reconstruction with composite nasal septal cartilage graft following one-staged tracheal resection. Histopathologic diagnosis was well-differentiated adenoid cystic carcinoma. Fiberoptic and biopsy exam...

OBJECTIVES To determine whether rabbit cartilage can be tissue engineered using a polyglycolic acid (PGA) construct composed of PGA mesh, autologous chondrocytes, and alginate covalently linked with the cell adhesion sequence arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD), and to investigate the feasibility of reconstructing tracheal defects using the PGA construct in conjunction with a bioabsorbable int...
متن کاملReconstruction of auricular conchal defects with local flaps
Reconstruction of the auricular conchal cavity is relatively difficult because of its unique structure, shape, and location. We compared different methods of repair of the auricular concha to determine the method that would cause the least injury to the donor site.The method selected was based on the location and size of the defect. If the defect was located in the upper part of the concha, or ...
