Emerging role of artificial intelligence in the care and management of lower extremity amputations and peripheral nerve injuries Open
Lower limb amputation (LLA) secondary to trauma, oncologic, diabetic, and vascular disease represents a significant patient challenge in terms of restoring function to pre-injury levels. This can be secondary to wear and use of a prostheti…

Orthotopic forelimb transplantation in a Yucatan minipig model: Anatomic and in vivo study Open
Introduction Above elbow transplants represent 19% of the upper extremity transplants. Previous large‐animal models have been too distal or heterotopic, did not use immunosuppression and had short survival. We hypothesize that an orthotopi…

Supermicrosurgical lymphaticovenular anastomosis vs. vascularized lymph vessel transplant - technical optimization and when to perform which Open
Early surgical intervention for lymphedema can delay, prevent, and even reverse lymphatic degeneration. Vascularized lymph vessel transplant (VLVT) has emerged as an alternative to vascularized lymph node transplant (VLNT) for the treatmen…

Surgical Prevention of Breast Cancer-Related Lymphedema: Delayed Distal Lymphaticovenicular Anastomosis– An Alternative to the Classic LYMPHA Technique Open
Breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) is a devastating potential complication of axillary lymphadenectomy and radiotherapy. Several effective surgical treatment measures now exist, including lymphaticovenicular anastomosis (LVA), vascula…

2: Ex-vivo Normothermic Preservation Of Amputated Limbs With A Hemoglobin-based Oxygen Carrier (HBOC-201) Perfusate Open
Background: Ex-vivo normothermic perfusion (EVNP) has been used as an alternative to static cold storage (SCS) to improve allograft quality in solid organ and vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA). Perfusates containing red bloo…

Vascularized lymph vessel transplant (VLVT): our experience and lymphedema treatment algorithm Open
: Supermicrosurgical lymphaticovenicular anastomosis (LVA) and vascularized lymph node transplant (VLNT) are established surgical procedures for fluid-predominant extremity lymphedema. LVA is most effective for early disease, while VLNT is…

Limb Transplantation Following Ex Vivo Normothermic Perfusion in an Orthotopic Forelimb Swine Transplantation Model Open
PURPOSE: Ischemia-reperfusion injury remains a major limiting factor for limb replantation and transplantation. Ex-vivo normothermic limb perfusion has been proven to preserve viability and function of amputated limbs longer than cold stor…

Abstract 49: Outcomes Of Ex-vivo Normothermic Limb Perfusion (EVNLP) With A Hemoglobin-based Oxygen Carrier (HBOC-201) Open
Purpose: Ex-vivo normothermic limb perfusion (EVNLP) has been proven to preserve limb viability and function for a longer duration than static cold storage (SCS). Perfusates containing red blood cells (RBCs) as oxygen carriers improve outc…
