However, several prevention approaches, including non-surgical and surgical management, are available. In flap surgery for pressure sores, a variety of flap types may be used; each offers certain benefits and some incidences of complications and recurrence. This study evaluated the versatility of the perforator-enhanced rhomboid flap technique for ischial sore construction.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>This prospective study was conducted in the Plastic Surgery Department of Fayoum University Hospital. The perforator-enhanced rhomboid flap technique was employed in 20 patients with ischial pressure sores who failed to respond to conservative treatment. A proper history was obtained and a preoperative arterial duplex was performed to determine the site of the prominent perforators for their preservation at the base of the flap. Postoperative follow-ups and evaluations were performed.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>The mean age of the study group was 43.7 ​± ​13.1, ranging from 19 to 65 years. Moreover, 80% of the participants were males while 20% were female. The main etiology of the sores was paraplegia in 45% of cases. The mean surface area of sores was 24.8 ​± ​6.3 ​cm². In 75% of cases, the color match of the flap was rated as excellent. Similarly, 70% of the patients rated flap thickness as excellent. In 55% of the cases, the scar appearance was deemed excellent. Overall satisfaction was reported as excellent by 40% of the patients, while only 5% reported poor satisfaction. Approximately, 10% of the cases were identified with seroma, and 30% had wound dehiscence of a mean size of 1.33 ​± ​0.98 ​cm and required around 6.8 ​± ​1.9 weeks to heal.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>The perforator-enhanced rhomboid flap technique is a versatile method for reconstructing ischial pressure sores owing to its technical ease, short operative time, reliable vascularity, aesthetic outcome, matching skin color, and short recovery time.

The complexity of the pathology is explained by the combined nature of the injuries (often associated with craniofacial injuries), multistage treatments, results that are often unsatisfactory, and a wide range of complaints about functional and cosmetic limitations. Over the years, significant progress has been made in the field of orbital reconstruction, allowing the transition from traditional methods using simple materials to innovative bioengineering solutions. This evolution has been driven by advances in surgical technologies, imaging techniques, and biomaterials aimed at optimizing the restoration of the shape and function of the orbital region. Traditional approaches are based on the use of autologous tissues such as bone grafts and muscle flaps, which provide biocompatibility and natural integration, but have limitations in terms of customization and accessibility. The advent of patient-specific implants and 3D printing technology has revolutionized the reconstruction of the orbit, allowing implants to be precisely adapted to a patient’s anatomy. Biocompatible materials, such as porous polyethylene, titanium, and silicone, have become the basis for orbital reconstruction, ensuring durability and compatibility while minimizing long-term complications. Bioengineered solutions hold promise for further advancements in orbital reconstruction. We searched PubMed, Cyberleninka, and other verified databases for published articles on orbital reconstruction reported in the literature between 1960 and January 2024. In this article, we consider the advantages and disadvantages of each category of reconstruction materials and provide up-to-date information on the methods for modifying their properties using modern processing technologies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":65600,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery","volume":"6 2","pages":"Pages 98-105"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2096691124000426/pdfft?md5=0e532df507be7ef63a5e209bdf668d02&pid=1-s2.0-S2096691124000426-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141480028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Autologous bone and deproteinized bovine bone xenografts are the two primary resources used for such procedures, with the former demonstrating superior cost-effectiveness and reduced comorbidity rates, particularly in cases involving donor zones. However, a significant challenge lies in acquiring uniformly sized autologous particulate bone specimens, with existing tools often yielding coarse particles at a high cost. Consequently, commercial bone xenograft solutions are frequently favored despite lower standards. This technical note introduces a novel technique for swiftly, safely, and efficiently obtaining autologous particulate bone specimens. The procedure involves the use of a motor handpiece fitted with a micro drill and surgical spoon to collect the bone particles. The continuous irrigation with saline maintains a clear surgical field during the milling process. The collected bone particles are then transferred to a metal capsule for further use.
