Extended reality for perforator visualization in deep inferior epigastric perforator autologous breast reconstruction: A systematic review.
[BACKGROUND] Extended Reality (XR) technology is rapidly advancing and has shown promise in improving perioperative outcomes across various surgical specialties. [OBJECTIVE] This systematic review aimed to evaluate the use of XR for perfor…

Patient-reported outcomes after immediate and delayed DIEP-flap breast reconstruction in the setting of post-mastectomy radiation therapy-results of the multicenter UMBRELLA breast cancer cohort.
[PURPOSE] Timing of Deep Inferior Epigastric artery Perforator (DIEP)-flap breast reconstruction in the context of post-mastectomy radiotherapy for breast cancer patients is topic of debate. We compared the impact of immediate (before radio…

Does Dangling the Lower Extremity after Free Flap Reconstruction Reduce Partial Flap Loss? A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial.
[BACKGROUND] Controlled, gradually increased venous pressure exposure of lower extremity free flaps (dangling) is common, based on the assumption that this reduces (partial) flap loss. Dangling protocols potentially increase length of hospi…

Mental health is strongly associated with capability after lower extremity injury treated with free flap limb salvage or amputation.
[BACKGROUND] Knowledge about factors associated with long-term outcomes, after severe traumatic injury to the lower extremity, can aid with the difficult decision whether to salvage or amputate the leg and improve outcome. We therefore stud…

Patient-reported esthetic outcomes following lower extremity free flap reconstruction: A cross-sectional multicenter study.
[INTRODUCTION] The goal of lower-extremity reconstructions is primarily to salvage the leg; however, esthetic outcomes are also important. This study aimed to assess the impact of a lower extremity free tissue transfer regarding social func…

Bulging after DIEP Breast Reconstruction: New Insights Concerning Rectus Diastasis and Medial Perforator Harvest.
[UNLABELLED] The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between flap harvest technique and occurrence of abdominal bulging. [METHODS] A retrospective analysis of 159 patients undergoing DIEP flap breast reconstruction between 20…

A multidisciplinary approach for autologous breast reconstruction: A narrative (re)view for better management.
Breast reconstruction and oncoplastic surgery have become an important part of breast cancer care. The use of autologous breast reconstruction (ABR) has evolved significantly with advances in microsurgery, aiming to reduce donor site compli…

The Role of Negative-Pressure Wound Therapy in Patients with Fracture-Related Infection: A Systematic Review and Critical Appraisal.
[INTRODUCTION] Fracture-related infection (FRI) is a severe musculoskeletal complication in orthopedic trauma surgery, causing challenges in bony and soft tissue management. Currently, negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is often used as…

Is there a difference in venous thrombosis rate in free flap anastomoses based on coupler diameter? A systematic review. Does Size Really Matter?
[BACKGROUND] The adage is to use the largest anastomotic coupler device (coupler) size possible, since smaller an anastomosis might be more susceptible to thrombosis. It is unclear if this wisdom is supported by data. This study tests the h…
