Background: Adequate coverage of traumatic complex lower extremity wounds is often challenging for reconstructive surgeons. Propeller perforator flaps have gained wide acceptance as an alternative in soft tissue defects over the last decade. We report our experience with distal reconstructions performed either traditional local vs. propeller flaps. aim here was to compare non-microvascular woun...

Results: Approximately 80% of patients had AWR with component separation and 8% had a bridged repair. The most frequently used mesh was porcine (Strattice, 56.5%), followed by bovine (Surgimend, 31.1%) and human (Alloderm, 10.9%). There were 31 (16.2%) hernia recurrences with a surgical site occurrence rate of 25.1%. Among these patients, 13% had hernia recurrence within 3 years, while 16.7% at...

Mol-ecules of the title compound, C(21)H(19)NO, assume an approximate propellar shape, with the three aromatic rings being nearly perpendicularly aligned with respect to the plane formed by the C atoms that are connected to the methine C atom [dihedral angles: pyridyl 79.82 (4)°, phenyl 80.12 (3)° and phenyl 86.93 (3)°].

BACKGROUND Vermilion irregularities are common secondary deformities after cleft lip repair, regressed or resected hemangiomas, trauma and tumor surgeries. Vermilion deficiency attracts considerable attention and detracts from an otherwise excellent lip repair. Minor and moderate vermilion defects can be corrected with upper lip advancement, rotation flaps, tongue flaps or grafts. Major defect...

The title compound, C(23)H(17)F(6)NO, crystallizes with two mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The mol-ecules assume an approximate propellar shape, with the three aromatic rings being bent with respect to the plane formed by the C atoms that are connected to the methine C atom [dihedral angles: pyridyl 67.49 (3)°, phenyl 56.82 (4)° and phenyl 77.21 (6)° in one mol-ecule, and corresponding angl...
