Extremity amputation remains a common intervention for limb-threatening conditions. With advancement in surgical technique to address deleterious postoperative sequelae of limb removal, there is a salient need to develop and operationalize interdisciplinary care frameworks to provide more comprehensive care to an otherwise challenging patient population. Herein, we describe our interdisciplinary approach to the management of amputee patient populations at our institution, referred to as the Interdisciplinary Care for Amputees Network (ICAN). This novel framework focuses on 3 fundamental areas combined preoperative patient evaluation, orthoplastic surgical intervention, and multi-specialty postoperative functional and psychosocial rehabilitation. Importantly, the successful implementation of a combined orthoplastic clinic requires establishing a working relationship among providers to leverage increased provider familiarity. This, coupled with sufficient clinic space, dedicated operating room time, and standardized patient workflow, serves to improve care and meet patient goals of pain minimization, return to desired functional status, and improvement in quality of life.Electrical burns are capable of damaging cells through both thermal and nonthermal mechanisms. The complexity of these wounds, the deterioration in time, and the conversion during the first days make managing them a challenge. Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is a technology that can be used as a tool to improve outcomes in patients with burns in the acute and reconstructive phases of the treatment. We describe 2 cases in which we apply this technology in electrical injuries. We present 2 cases of patients with electrical burns who underwent NPWT with instillation (NPWTi) with saline solution in the acute phase, to block the conversion of the burn and to improve the granulation tissue and in the reconstructive phase, as a tool to improve the grafts take. Both patients showed early formation of granulation tissue adequate for surgical reconstruction, and neither of them presented loss of skin grafts. In the acute phase, NPWT with instillation when applied in these patients showed fast formation of granulation tissue adequate for early reconstruction, whereas NPWT in the reconstructive phase when applied to bolster grafts showed improvements in grafts take. NPWT is a useful tool to support the surgical management of the electrical injuries during the acute phase to prepare the wound for early reconstruction and after the skin grafts reconstruction to improve the grafts take.The lateral thoracodorsal (LTD) flap technique is a type of oncoplastic breast surgery that involves transposition of tissue from the lateral aspect of a partial mastectomy defect. It is a relatively simple procedure and shows lower donor morbidity and good aesthetic outcomes. Complications, such as fat necrosis and wound dehiscence due to poor circulation, may occur at the distal part of the flap. Atuzabrutinib We used a supercharged LTD flap to reduce this problem. In this study, the outcomes of the LTD flap over 13 years were reviewed.
We performed a retrospective study of 86 patients who underwent an LTD flap procedure between 2007 and 2019. We analyzed patient information using medical chart review and classified patients into groups according to lateral thoracic artery perforator supercharging. The incidence of complications, such as fat necrosis and wound dehiscence, was also analyzed.
The mean tumor weight was 83.67 g, and defects had a moderate size, as they represented 25.02% of the total breast volume. Fat necrosis was noted in 19.4% of cases in the group without lateral thoracic artery perforator supercharging and 4% of cases in the group with supercharging, with a significantly lower rate in the supercharged group.
Our findings show that the LTD flap could be used to cover moderate-sized defects after breast-conserving surgery. Careful dissection to preserve the lateral thoracic artery perforator resulted in the reduction of complications, such as fat necrosis, and excellent aesthetic results.

Classified as a mesenchymal malignancy, it exhibits both mesenchymal and epithelial markers. Occurrence in children under age 10 is extremely rare. This report describes the clinical course and management of a 5-year-old girl who presented with epithelioid sarcoma in the distal extremity. The lesion was initially misdiagnosed and treated for over a year as a common wart.Enterocutaneous fistula (ECF), which is an abnormal connection between the gastrointestinal tract and skin, is a serious complication of abdominal surgery, and a multidisciplinary approach is required for its treatment. Here, we report the case of a 46-year-old woman who had a large ECF measuring 6 × 12 cm that was successfully treated with a 2-stage surgery. After the first surgery of intestinal wall reconstruction, an abdominal negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) device was administered to facilitate the reexploration of the abdominal cavity. On postoperative day 5, intestinal perforation and abdominal cavity infection were found during dressing change and were immediately repaired. Subsequently, after 10 days of abdominal NPWT, the second surgery comprising abdominal wall reconstruction was performed using a pedicled anterolateral thigh flap (8 × 19 cm) combined with the fascia lata (12 × 20 cm). The defective rectus sheath and skin were uneventfully closed with the fascia lata and flap skin paddle, respectively. In the follow-up after 7 months, ECF had not recurred. The abdominal NPWT device enabled easy reentry of the abdominal cavity and reduced the size of the flap needed to cover the defect. Moreover, open abdominal management can be performed consistently, independent of the surgeon's expertise. Therefore, this report suggests that 2-stage surgery with abdominal NPWT management is a useful strategy for ECF treatment.
