[mandibular reconstruction by free bone flaps with micro-anastomosis. Our current indications].

The frequency with which difficulties were encountered in the reconstruction of the continuity of the mandible led us to attempt to systematize our indications. Although grafts, composite pedicle flaps and prosthetic guides still have their appropriate applications. Local conditions are more and more frequently amenable to free flaps. The factors guiding our choice are presented in detail: physical conditions, etiology and anatomy of the defect. In addition, the reason for choosing the type of free flap--iliac crest, fibula or external brachial--is discussed.

[Experimental study of an axial vascularized pedicle flap induced in rats].

The authors report an experimental study about induced flaps in rats. The aim of this study is to determine that neoangiogenesis can be formed from surgically introduced pedicle. Two main groups were studied: in the first one the arteriovenous pedicle was be anastomased at its distal end, in the other, an arteriovenous loop was created microsurgically. In both groups we obtained good results and the flaps stayed alive. Neoangiogenesis from the surgically introduced axial pedicle was observed. The prospects in human pathology are interesting to consider, for the surgeon might be liberated from the narrow anatomic limits imposed by vascular territories, by creating a suitable flap anywhere in the body.

[Post-traumatic enophthalmos].

Based on 8 cases, the authors study the mechanisms involved in post-traumatic enophthalmos and demonstrate that they result from an increase in orbital volume. There are no grounds to suggest that the disappearance of orbital fat is involved.

[Changes in the nasal pyramid in osteotomy of the maxilla].

The correction of dento-facial deformities with Lefort I osteotomy are always accompanied by changes in soft tissue and skeleton. But, in many cases there is also modification of the low floor of the nose and profile changes. This clinical experience has been confirmed in the Laboratory on cadavre experimentation. Three deplacements have been studied: advancement of maxilla, inferior repositioning of maxilla and superior repositioning of maxilla. Often, Lefort I osteotomy is a complex association of these movements; modifications are also function of soft tissue. Operation must necessary provide theses technical modification for a real adaptation of the surgery. The surgical technique must therefore be adapted in order to obtain the best aesthetic result.

[Modified subcutaneous mastectomy. Apropos of 916 cases].

Modified subcutaneous mastectomy was described by one of us in 1968; its approach, the dissection of the gland, plastic reconstruction of shape and volume are completely different from the subcutaneous mastectomy performed by plastic surgeons. 3 different time periods were studied to explain clearly evolution in the technic and indications. During many years retrospective studies made it possible to build a procedure according to the new diagnostic means for infraclinical breast cancer and to the constant improving prosthetic material. Therefore our indications for modified subcutaneous mastectomy are as following: suspicious mastopathies are the best indications with a performing choice of the radiologic images which require histologic control some evolutive or evoluated mastopathies some small infiltrating tumors developing in a highly dystrophic glandular surrounding. The numerous in situ cancers accompanying them argue for this choice. some big phyllod tumors or phyllod's recurrences.
