Two-stage free latissimus dorsi flap: a safe strategy for reconstruction of large defects of the abdominal wall.

We report a case of full abdominal wall reconstruction after resection of a dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. The treatment comprised wide resection with a 5 cm peripheral margin and deep resection to a disease-free anatomical structure. The reconstruction was done in two-stages with a free latissimus dorsi flap.

Reversed cross finger subcutaneous flap: A rapid way to cover finger defects.

Adequate coverage of dorsal finger wounds is often a challenge. The reversed cross finger subcutaneous flap to cover defects on the dorsum of phalanx constitutes an excellent option for coverage of wounds over the middle and distal phalanges of the index, middle, ring, and small fingers. It's an easy flap and represents our first choice to cover those defects.
