Utilization of Recipient Veins with Reflux during Supermicrosurgical Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis for Lower Limb Lymphedema.
[BACKGROUND] The use of recipient veins with venous reflux for lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) is discouraged because it is commonly believed that this may lead to venous-lymphatic reflux (VLR). VLR is a phenomenon in which venous blood …

Linking Lymphedema, Chronic Inflammation, Oxidative Stress, Alzheimer Disease, and Potential Role of Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis.
[BACKGROUND] Lymphedema and Alzheimer disease (AD) share common mechanisms involving oxidative stress and chronic inflammation. However, the link between these 2 conditions and the impact of lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) has not been f…

Impact of Lymphedema Duration on Lymphatic Vessel Quality and Outcomes after Super-microsurgical Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis.
[BACKGROUND] Inferior lymphatic vessel (LV) quality was thought to be associated with prolonged lymphedema duration (LD), which can lead to unfavorable lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) outcomes. However, increasing evidence supports the u…

Groin-only lymphaticovenous anastomosis: a paradigm shift for lower extremity lymphedema - a prospective cohort propensity-score matched analysis.
[BACKGROUND] Based on the recent advancement in the concepts of lymphosome and the use of antegrade lymph flow, shifting lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) more proximally to the groin region for lower extremity lymphedema (LEL) offers theo…

The Value of the Nutritional Indicators in Predicting Free Flap Failure From a Multicentre Database.
[OBJECTIVE] Nutritional and inflammatory statuses have been associated with complications in microvascular-free flaps during head and neck surgeries. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of nutritional indicators in predicting postope…

Diet Outcome in Patients With Hypopharyngeal Defects Repaired With Different Reconstruction Flaps: A Comparative Study.
[OBJECTIVES] To assess potential risk factors influencing diet outcomes after reconstruction of subtotal hypopharyngeal defects using free patch- or tube-shaped anterolateral thigh (ALT) fasciocutaneous flaps. [STUDY DESIGN] Retrospective …

The risk of free flap revision and subsequent medical costs in patients with hypopharyngeal cancer.
[BACKGROUND] Few studies have examined the preoperative risks and healthcare costs related to free flap revision in hypopharyngeal cancer (HPC) patients. [METHODS] A 20-year retrospective case-control study was conducted using the Chang Gu…

Comparison of contraction-type and noncontraction-type lymphatic vessels in lymphaticovenous anastomosis for cancer-related unilateral lower limb lymphedema: a retrospective cohort propensity-score-matched outcome analysis.
[BACKGROUND] Contraction-type lymphatic vessels (LV) are considered suboptimal for lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA). However, despite these pathological changes, their functionality and link to outcomes have not been fully elucidated. The…

Impact of retrograde anastomosis during supermicrosurgical lymphaticovenous anastomosis for cancer-related lower limb lymphedema: A retrospective cohort propensity-score-matched outcome analysis.
[BACKGROUND] In addition to antegrade anastomosis, retrograde anastomosis has been thought to offer further improvements after lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) by bypassing the retrograde lymphatic flow. However, this concept has yet to b…

Increased Angiogenesis by Exosomes Secreted by Adipose-Derived Stem Cells upon Lipopolysaccharide Stimulation.
Exosomes secreted by adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) enhance angiogenesis and wound healing. However, in clinical settings, wounds may be infected by various bacteria or pathogens. We investigated whether human ADSCs stimulated with lipo…

Lower Limb Lymphedema Patients Can Still Benefit from Supermicrosurgical Lymphaticovenous Anastomosis (LVA) after Vascularized Lymph Node Flap Transfer (VLNT) as Delayed Lymphatic Reconstruction-A Retrospective Cohort Study.
[BACKGROUND] For lymphedema patients who received a vascularized lymph node flap transfer (VLNT) as their primary treatment, what are the treatment options when they seek further improvement? With recent publications supporting the use of l…

Comparison of the outcomes between free anteromedial thigh flap and anterolateral thigh flap in head and neck cancer reconstruction: Analysis of propensity-score-matched patient cohorts.
[BACKGROUND] The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap is a workhorse flap in head and neck cancer reconstruction. The anteromedial thigh (AMT) flap was developed as a rescue or alternative flap whenever the ALT flap is not available; however, the…
