Article Abstract
Objective: To investigate the reconstruction of skin defect at frontal and temporal hair line.
Methods: 5 cases with skin defect at frontal and temporal hair line were treated with mastoid fasciocutaneous island flap pedicled with parietal branch of superficial temporal artery.
Results: All the flaps survived completely. Hair grew up 5 - 7 days after operation, showing good reconstructed hair line.
Conclusions: Mastoid fasciocutaneous island flap is a reliable method for reconstruction of skin defect at frontal and temporal hair line.

From crisis to recovery: A case report on nursing strategies for hepatitis E post-cardiac arrest.

Rationale: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-support technology for refractory cardiac arrest, but the massive blood transfusions required during treatment significantly increase the risk of transfusion-related infections. Hepatitis E virus (HEV) - traditionally linked to fecal-oral transmission - is increasingly recognized as a transfusion-transmitted pathogen, especially in emergency settings where urgent blood product infusion is common and routine HEV screening in blood banks is often lacking. However, nursing strategies for managing acute HEV infection after ECMO remain poorly defined, highlighting the need to address this clinical gap.

Purpose: To demonstrate the use of negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) and other reconstructive techniques in the reconstruction of large tissue defects resulting from periocular necrotizing fasciitis (NF).
Methods: Description of technique with 3 illustrative cases and accompanying photographic montage.
Results: Technique: Debridement successfully spared post-septal tissues and the lid margin in all cases.
Versatility of the Free Multipedicled Anterolateral Thigh Flap for Restoring Complex Facial Soft Tissue Defects.

Introduction: Complex soft tissue injuries in the facial area can arise from various causes. Surgeons face significant challenges when reconstructing these injuries, as they must select appropriate materials based on texture and color, while also considering their composition and properties. The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap has emerged as a versatile option in clinical reconstructive surgery, offering many advantages over other free flaps.

Recently, joint replacement surgery is facing significant challenges of patient dissatisfaction and the need for revision procedures. In-situ monitoring of stress stability at the site of artificial joint replacement during postoperative evaluation is important. Mechanoluminescence (ML), a novel "force to light" conversion technology, may be used to monitor such bio-stress within tissues.

Reconstructing multi-tissue defects in the finger remains a significant challenge in hand surgery. We present the case of a 37-year-old man with segmental loss of bone, skin and extensor apparatus on the dorsal aspect of the index finger. A single stage reconstruction was successfully performed using a pedicled chimeric flap based on the second dorsal metacarpal artery combining skin paddle, second metacarpal base bone and the extensor indicis proprius.
