[Hemimandibular reconstruction via an autologous transplant of vascularized fibula. A report of a clinical case].

The authors illustrate the advantage of vascularised as opposed to conventional edges in the reconstruction of the jaw, focusing in particular on the use of a fibular autologous transplant. After a rapid description of the surgical technique used to remove the graft, they report a case of mandibular reconstruction in a young patient who had been involved in a shooting accident which had led to the loss of the left of this jaw.

Vascularized nerve graft: a clinical contribution.

The authors present 4 cases of vascularized nerve graft. The results were better than those obtained with traditional grafting. The indication is a rare one, and the experimental results are contradictory. Indications are limited to Volkmann ischemic syndromes, post-actinic lesions of the brachial plexus, infections and finally, post-burning scarring. Nevertheless, traditional nerve grafts remain the treatment of choice for peripheral nerve lesions which cannot undergo direct suturing.
