Two flaps, namely the free vascularized iliac bone graft supplied by the deep circumflex iliac artery (DCIA) and the superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator flap supplied by the superficial circumflex iliac artery (SCIA), can be individually harvested from a single surgical field. We report two cases treated by these free flaps for severe ha...

The soft tissue of the central pretibial area is difficult to reconstruct often requiring free tissue transfer. Especially medically compromised patients are not ideal candidates for free tissue transfer and may benefit from expeditiously harvested local flaps with limited donor site morbidity. As muscle flaps are rare, pedicled flaps based on late...

Transoral approaches to the oropharynx have evolved rapidly in the past years. The development of technical instruments such as specific oropharyngeal retractors, 2D and 3D endoscopic systems, robotic platforms, and a combination of energies, has facilitated transoral resection and bleeding control. This new scenario has raised the need for new rec...
