[Cutaneous reconstruction of external genital organs: an older method still in current use].

The authors present four patients with cutaneous defects of the genital organs, one with a degloving injury to the penis, one with Fournier's gangrene, one with massive lymphoedema and one with a full thickness burn. In those four cases, a stable coverage was obtained through skin grafts, maintained by an external splint. The use of this older method gave an excellent esthetic and functional result.

[Supplemented local anesthesia in plastic surgery].

A study of 34 reconstructive or aesthetic operations done with supplemented local anaesthesia (local anaesthesia associated with a premedication of methadone, midazolam and droperidol) is presented. Results of this anaesthesia were good in 88% as judged by the surgeon. The immediate post-operative impression was indifferent to pleasant in 85% of the patients. A few months later on, 72% of this cohort of patients would accept a new operation with the same kind of anaesthesia. Although these results are good, ways of improving the results are discussed.

Tissue expansion in children.

Tissue expansion is a useful tool in reconstructive surgery. It permits the correction of large skin lesions by expanded cutaneous or fascio-cutaneous flaps, well vascularised and matching in colour, texture and thickness. We report our results in 12 children. There was a relatively high complication rate.
