DOI: 10.1002/jso.25758
Abstract: Pharyngoesophageal stenosis (PES) is a common and serious complication of head and neck cancer treatments such as radiation therapy, chemotherapy, tracheoesophageal puncture placement, and total laryngectomy surgery. Dilation‐resistant stenosis requires surgical reconstruction, often with a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/micr.30190
Abstract: Radial forearm free flap (RFFF) tube‐in‐tube phalloplasty is the most performed phalloplasty technique worldwide. The conspicuous donor‐site scar is a drawback for some transgender men. In search for techniques with less conspicuous donor‐sites, we performed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/micr.30523
Abstract: Reconstruction of foot structures is challenging because of the need to restore both anatomy and function. Extensor hallucis longus (EHL) excision without reconstruction could result in a flexion deformity of the toe at the interphalangeal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/micr.30950
Abstract: The free radial forearm flap is the gold standard technique for transgender phalloplasty due to superior complication rates compared to other methods. However, reconstruction of the urinary tract, including urethral lengthening and creation of a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00405-018-4908-5
Abstract: BackgroundThe use of the radial forearm-free flap is a well-established and reliable reconstruction method in head and neck surgery. Usually, the defect of the donor site is covered with full or split-thickness skin grafts. Since… read more here.

DOI: 10.1055/s-0042-1748662
Abstract: Total reconstruction of the penis (TPR) represents a challenge for urologists and plastic surgeons, especially when urethral length is severely reduced. We here describe, for the first time in an oncologic scenario, a double flap… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/00015458.2017.1411555
Abstract: Abstarct Background: Due to the high rate of donor site complications the Radial Forearm Flap (RFF) has lost ground in favor of the Antero-lateral tight flap (ALT) and other flaps. We have designed a reconstruction… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/bjs/znac269.261
Abstract: The radial forearm free flap has classically been used in oral reconstructions, however, there has been research into an alternative option, the nasolabial flap. Surgical research is focussing more on quality-of-life outcomes to measure a… read more here.
