Usually, the concomitant vein of the recipient artery is anastomosed, and mismatches in the diameter are occasionally observed. We consider the thoracoepigastric vein (TEV) as a potential useful recipient vein. The use of the TEV is not a novel technique. It has been used by surgeons for free-flap anastomoses in the axillary region, but usually as an anastomotic site for the second vein.

The purpose of this study was to prospectively quantify sensory outcomes in the neophallus and donor site following RFFF phalloplasty.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Methods&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;Sensation testing occurred prospectively over February 2019–January 2021 on Stage 1 RFFF phalloplasty patients using the Pressure Specified Sensory Device (PSSD). On the neophallus, one-point discrimination (1PS) pressure threshold and lengthwise sensory recovery were measured at six circumferential locations proximally to distally. On the donor site, 1PS was measured at three locations on the donor hand.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Results&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;Nineteen patients were included (average age 34.0 years old, range 18–53 years). Among patients that received neophallus testing (&lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt; = 13), eight had at least two follow-up appointments. Six of these patients had sensation as of their most recent measurement (75.0%), with an average of 73 days to regain sensation. There was a significantly greater proportion of patients with sensation at the right ventral (80.0% after 3 months vs. 11.1%–60.0% before 3 months, &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; = 0.024) and right lateral (100.0% after 3 months vs. 11.1%–60.0% before 3 months, &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; = 0.004) aspects of the neophallus over time. Pressure required to elicit sensation decreased by 18.0% from 1 week–1 month postoperatively to 3–7.7 months postoperatively in the right ventral neophallus (96.2 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; ± 11.3 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; to 56.6 ± 39.9 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; = 0.037). Among patients that received donor site testing (&lt;i&gt;n&lt;/i&gt; = 11), mixed effects regression analysis with random intercepts demonstrated significant changes in the thumb (3.4 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; ± 1.4 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &lt; 0.05) and webspace (13.5 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; ± 4.9 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &lt; 0.01) that returned to baseline at 3 months postoperatively (1.7 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; ± 1.0 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &gt; 0.05, and 2.3 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; ± 4.0 g/mm&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;, &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &gt; 0.05, respectively).&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Conclusion&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;This pilot study demonstrates that quantitative sensory testing can be used to monitor post-phalloplasty sensory changes.

Nearly half (45%) of LE defects were located in the distal third of the leg, 27.5% in the middle third, and 34.4% in the proximal third. Most reconstructions utilized muscle-containing flaps (74.4%) compared with fasciocutaneous flaps (16.8%). Surgical approaches included free flaps (47.6%) and local flaps (52.5%).

At final follow-up, 30.1% of patients with Class III obesity were ambulatory, requiring either wheelchairs (42.3%) or assistance devices (26.9%).
