schemic mitral regurgitation undergoing mitral valve replacement. There may be an increased risk of neurologic events and serious bleeding associated with mechanical prostheses.Evolution in extremity injury treatment often occurs during major conflicts, with lessons learned applied and translated among military and civilian settings. In recent periods of war, improvements in protective equipment, in-theater damage control resuscitation/surgery, delivery of antibiotics locally/systemically, and rapid evacuation to higher levels of medical care capabilities have greatly improved combat casualty survivability rates. Additionally, widespread application of lower extremity tourniquets also has prevented casualties from exsanguination, thus reducing hemorrhagic-related deaths. Secondary to these, a high number of combat casualties suffering lower extremity traumatic injuries have presented for functional limb reconstruction and restoration as well as residual limb care.Indications for lower extremity reconstruction in children are unique because most result from congenital conditions (eg, constriction ring, lymphedema, syndactyly, nevi, vascular anomalies). Like adults, pediatric patients also suffer from effects following extirpation and trauma. Principles of reconstruction are based on the condition and type of deformity. The pediatric population typically has fewer comorbidities than adults that can negatively affect outcomes (eg, diabetes, peripheral vascular disease), although children can be less compliant with postoperative care. ABL001 Growth, development, appearance, and postoperative compliance are variables that especially influence operative management of children.Demand has increased for complex lower-extremity reconstruction in the steadily growing elderly patient group in many highly developed countries. Microsurgery is indispensable for soft tissue reconstruction and osseous consolidation salvaging leg function and preventing amputation, with its devastating consequences. Microvascular reconstruction can be performed successfully in specialized centers with low donor-site morbidity, minimal operative time, and comparably low complication rates. However, this requires thorough multidisciplinary planning, preoperative optimization of risk factors, such as diabetes and malnutrition, and individually adapted intraoperative management. Implementing these principles can reliably restore ambulation and mobility, maintaining autonomy in this population.Chronic lower extremity wounds are defined as wounds that fail to heal within 3 months of defect onset. Free tissue transfer offers an opportunity for limb salvage and length preservation. Preoperative optimization includes a medical and nutritional consult, complete work-up by vascular surgery, and an analysis of bony stability and gait biomechanics by podiatric surgery. In the authors' practice, the thigh has proved the workhorse donor site and offers fasciocutaneous and muscle-based flaps depending on defect characteristics. Postoperative care requires early monitoring for flap compromise and continued long-term follow-up for wound recurrence.Surgical resection with wide margins and perioperative radiation therapy is the standard treatment of extremity soft tissue sarcomas. This combination often results in complex wounds and functional compromise. Reconstructive surgery is integral to limb salvage after sarcoma resection. Advances in adjuvant therapy and reconstructive surgical techniques have made functional limb salvage, instead of amputation, possible for most patients. This article reviews key concepts in the multidisciplinary care of patients with extremity soft tissue sarcomas and details reconstructive surgical techniques, including locoregional and free tissue transfer, free functional muscle transfer, and vascularized bone transfer, to optimize functional limb restoration after sarcoma resection.Supermicrosurgery is defined as microsurgery working on vessels less than 0.8 mm, allowing applications in smaller-dimension microsurgery, such as lymphedema, minimal invasive reconstruction, small parts replantation, and application of perforator as recipient. To accommodate this technique, developments and use of finer instruments, smaller sutures, new diagnostic tools, and higher-magnification microscopes have been made. Although supermicrosurgery has evolved naturally from microsurgery, it has developed into a unique field based on different thinking and tools to solve problems that once were difficult to solve.Daily walking stance benefits the health, whereas lower extremity reconstruction aims to accomplish balanced walking and posture control. If local flap or tendon transfer cannot provide the basic function, microsurgical reconstruction is indicated for bony, soft tissue, and sensation restoration. Wound repair can use every modality and can achieve varying wound coverage results. However, all reconstruction should have functional goals using either local flap or free flap to restore the lost function. With less recipient site secondary damage, microsurgery can provide healthy composite tissue with like-replaces-like approach to create more stable long-term results.In order to address complex extremity injuries, the orthoplastic approach uses plastic, orthopedic, and microsurgical techniques and includes other disciplines to optimize limb salvage. This collaboration, if created early in treatment, allows for more expedient and individualized solutions to a variety of extremity injuries resulting in decreased hospital stay, fewer complications, and improved functional outcomes. The orthoplastic approach does not merely avoid amputation, but also improves patient function and quality of life in the short and long term.Gustilo IIIC injuries of the lower extremity pose a significant challenge to the reconstructive surgeon. Key principles include early vascular repair and serial debridement followed by definitive coverage within 10 days. Primary reconstructive options following vascular repair include the anterolateral thigh flap or the latissimus dorsi muscle flap. Complications include elevated rates of microvascular thrombosis requiring return to the operating room, partial and complete flap loss, and infection. There is also an elevated rate of secondary amputation. However, in spite of higher complication rates, when approached thoughtfully and with an experienced multidisciplinary team, patients can achieve reasonable functional outcomes.
