Non-syndromic toe syndactyly is a regular cause of foot malformation in children, bilateral form being less common. Syndactyly release procedures had few contraindications, as uncomplicated malformation or important patient comorbidities. Reported data show that corrective surgery using skin grafts is associated with an increased risk of infection, contractures, and web creep. Reconstruction surgical techniques, using flaps reduce morbidity, revision surgery, complication, may be associated with skin grafts and have superior aesthetic and functional results. We present a case of simple bilateral incomplete asymmetric toe syndactyly, released using a modified personalized local flaps reconstruction technique. The normal function and aesthetic of the feet was obtained, with no complications at one-year follow-up. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Restitution of function and aesthetic appearance of the nasal alla can only be achieved with a very good knowledge of the local and loco-regional anatomy so that,depending on the size of the postexcisional defect,one can use the best surgical procedure with resulting coverage as close to physiological. From all the local flaps,the article presents a case report of a nasolabial flap used for defect coverage on the right alla. As highlighted in the article,the most frequently used method of reconstructing the nasal alla is this type of flap,which provided good aesthetic and functional outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
