The reverse thenar
perforator flap has been used successfully for palmar resurfacing in Dupuytren's disease, trauma and burns.
Specific topics include free fibula flap for midface reconstruction, lower eyelid reconstruction with palatal grafts, free flap for hemi-tongue reconstruction, skate flap for nipple reconstruction, hernia repair with open component separation, superior gluteal artery
perforator flap, the medial plantar flap, and pediatric facial reinaimation using a functional gracilis muscle transfer.
After removal of the breast cancer, tissue from the abdomen was harvested with its blood vessels and then transplanted onto vessels on the chest wall to create a new breast mound (free
perforator flap) so that the patient went to sleep with a breast, had her cancer removed, and woke up with a new breast, in what is described as an 'immediate reconstruction'.
Our results of this novel technique are encouraging for future studies and trials in axial and
perforator flap models.

The soft tissue defect was then reconstructed with a free anterolateral thigh
perforator flap taken from the patient's left thigh and revascularized to the patient's right internal mammary vessels (Figures 4 & 5).
We describe a case that can be classified as a type I according to Vince and Miller [1] and area 5 according to Hastings II and Graham [3], with a history of double recurrence and a Darrach procedure [13] already performed, treated by synostosis resection and interposition with an adipofascial dorsoulnar artery (DUA)
perforator flap.
Therefore she underwent deep inferior epigastric
perforator flap breast reconstruction at the department of plastic and reconstructive surgery.
