Repair of traumatic auricle avulsion is technically and aesthetically challenging, primarily because of the irregular and unique cartilaginous anatomy of the ear. Classic replantation of a nonvascularized composite graft may succeed if the amputated portion of...
متن کاملThe usefulness of a pectoralis major myocutaneous flap in preventing salivary fistulae after salvage total laryngectomy.
UNLABELLED Salvage laryngectomy in patients treated with organ preservation protocols is associated with high rates of postoperative complications. The use of non-irradiated tissue flaps in pharyngeal reconstruction could reduce the incidence of these complications. OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate the usefulness of the pectoralis major myocutaneous flap in preventing salivary fistulae d...
