Posterior Radial Collateral Artery Perforator Free Flap: Reliable Pedicle Length Independent of Body Height and Arm Length.
[BACKGROUND] The posterior radial collateral artery perforator free flap (PRCA flap) is a modification of the lateral arm flap that provides pliable tissue, color match, and primary donor-site closure. However, evidence on pedicle length re…

Application of Huge Bipedicle Anterolateral Thigh Free Flaps for Reconstructing Extensive Soft-Tissue Defects.
[BACKGROUND] The anterolateral thigh free flap is widely utilized for reconstructing complex wounds. Despite considerable advances in free flap procedures, partial flap loss remains a challenge, particularly with larger perforator flaps. Th…

Comparative study of arterial and venous grafting for pedicle lengthening in head and neck microvascular reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] In the field of head and neck microvascular reconstruction, no previous study has compared arterial and venous grafting as methods of anterolateral thigh (ALT) pedicle lengthening. Therefore, we conducted this comparative study…

Lymphoepithelial carcinoma in the sublingual gland.
Lymphoepithelial carcinoma is rare in the salivary glands, with an incidence of 0.4%. The most commonly affected site is the parotid gland, followed by the submandibular gland. Lymphoepithelial carcinoma in the sublingual gland has been rep…

Effect of Total Intravenous Anesthesia on Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Patients Undergoing Microvascular Reconstruction for Head and Neck Cancer: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
[IMPORTANCE] Free flap surgery is a lengthy procedure with massive tissue destruction and reconstruction, which makes postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) a noticeable issue among patients with head and neck cancer. Propofol-based t…

A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial of Botulinum Toxin Treatment Combined with Robot-Assisted Therapy, Mirror Therapy, or Active Control Treatment in Patients with Spasticity Following Stroke.
Effects of the combined task-oriented trainings with botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injection on improving motor functions and reducing spasticity remains unclear. This study aims to investigate effects of 3 task-oriented trainings (robot-assis…

Recipient vessel selection for multiple free flap transfers in head and neck reconstruction at different periods.
[BACKGROUND] Treatment decisions can be challenging in patients undergoing multiple oropharyngeal microsurgical reconstructions at different periods by various causes. We, retrospectively, reviewed patients with at least three consecutive f…

In situ pedicle lengthening and perforator shifting technique for overcoming the perforator variation of the anterolateral thigh free flap during head and neck reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Anterolateral thigh (ALT) free flap is one of the most popular options for surgeons when reconstructing head and neck defects. When the recipient vessels are located in a remote site, a flap with adequate pedicle length is esse…

The Effects of Distributed vs. Condensed Schedule for Robot-Assisted Training with Botulinum Toxin A Injection for Spastic Upper Limbs in Chronic Post-Stroke Subjects.
Robot-assisted training (RT) combined with a Botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injection has been suggested as a means to optimize spasticity treatment outcomes. The optimal schedule of applying RT after a BoNT-A injection has not been defined. Th…

Investigation into the safety of perineural application of 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether-crosslinked hyaluronan in a rat model.
Hyaluronan (HA) is well known for its biocompatibility and has widespread clinical use. To change its mechanical and physiologic properties to adapt to specific clinical scenarios, HA is crosslinked with chemically reactive linker molecules…

Orbital reconstruction with proplast.
Proplast was implanted in 15 cases of orbital reconstruction. Seven cases were orbital floor fractures, four cases were phthisical enophthalmos, and four cases were anophthalmic enophthalmos. In orbital floor fracture cases, thin (2-mm) Pro…
