Nerve conduits have become an established option for repair of sensory deficits of up to 2 cm. More recently, decellularized nerve allograft has also been advocated as an option for nerve repair; however, no clinical studies have examined its efficacy for the treatment of sensory nerve defects. The aim of this study w…

Excessive operative blood transfusion has been correlated with an increased rate of infectious complications and lower survival rate after transplantation of the liver. Two hundred and five consecutive transplants of the liver, performed between January 1988 and December 1989, were studied retrospectively to determine…

There are limited sources of autogenous tissue available for reconstruction of severe facial and scalp deformities caused by extensive tumor ablation, burns, or trauma. Allografts from cadaveric sources may serve as a reconstructive alternative. However, technical and immunological aspects of harvesting and transplant…

Clinical application of composite tissue allograft transplants opened discussion on the restoration of facial deformities by allotransplantation. The authors introduce a hemifacial allograft transplant model to investigate the rationale for the development of functional tolerance across the major histocompatibility co…

BACKGROUND: The authors have performed mock facial transplantation by harvesting total facial-scalp flaps from donors and transferring them to recipient cadavers. METHODS: A total of 10 fresh human cadavers were dissected. In the donor, the authors have measured the time of facial-scalp flap harvesting, and the length…

INTRODUCTION: Penile implant surgery continues to be an important option for men with erectile dysfunction. Advancements in technology of implants have contributed to improved survival from mechanical breakdown. Prosthesis infection remains a serious adverse event. For the last 8 years, the Titan implant (Coloplast Co…

BACKGROUND: Reconstruction of facial defects in burn, trauma, and head-neck cancer patients is challenging. The lack of autogenous tissue availability and the need to match facial texture and color are major concerns. METHODS: Anatomical dissections were performed to search for alternative sources for facial-scalp rec…
