Abstract

Reconstruction of facial defects in burn, trauma, and head-neck cancer patients is challenging. The lack of autogenous tissue availability and the need to match facial texture and color are major concerns. Anatomical dissections were performed to search for alternative sources for facial-scalp reconstructions in five cadavers. The composite facial-scalp flaps, radial forearm, anterolateral thigh, bipedicled deep inferior epigastric perforator, and bipedicled scapular-parascapular flaps were harvested. The total surface areas of the facial defects and alternative traditional flaps were measured. The mean surface area for combined facial-scalp flaps and facial flaps without scalp was 1192 +/- 38.2 cm and 675 +/- 22.3 cm, respectively. When compared with the total surface area of the facial-scalp flap, it was found that the radial forearm flap covered 13 +/- 2.58 percent, the anterolateral thigh flap 19 +/- 3.72 percent, the bipedicled deep inferior epigastric perforator flap 35 +/- 1.56 percent, and the bipedicled scapular-parascapular flap 48 +/- 4.64 percent of the defect, respectively. When measurements were taken for coverage of the facial defect without scalp, it was found that the radial forearm flap covered 24 +/- 4.0 perc...Continue Reading

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
