Plastic surgery includes many types:Reconstructive surgery,Craniofacial surgery Hand surgery, Microsurgery, and the treatment of burns .

Reconstructive plastic surgery
Reconstructive surgery is performed on abnormal structures of the body, caused by birth defects, developmental abnormalities, trauma , injury, infection, tumors, or disease.
It is generally performed to improve function, but may also be done to approximate a normal appearance .
![Page 5: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Reconstructive Ladder IMP .
a range of techniques of managing wounds and repairing defects.
The surgeon should start on the lowest rung and move up until a suitable technique is arrived at.
![Page 6: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
secondary intention: do nothing
leave it to heal by secondary intention e.g. abrasion .
Primary intention: also called primary closure or first step
You can use sutures, staples, wound glue, and adhesive strips to close the edges of the wound directly and splint the wound in the position that will give the best cosmetic result .
![Page 7: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
skin grafts If there is skin loss, with a healthy bed of tissue underneath - for example, an
uncomplicated burn— A skin graft is an autologous (material is
taken from one part of a patient to another anatomical site on the same patient) The graft is a sheet of living cells without a blood supply
Skin grafts provide a source of cells to grow over the damaged area and act as biological dressings to protect the wound .
![Page 8: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Grafts may be full thickness or split thickness.
1 -A full thickness graft is including the whole dermis, from the donor site.(better but more difficult to survive )
2 -Split thickness grafts are the epidermis and only part of the dermis.NOTE: the bed must be vascularized . DON’t put a graft on bone or cartilage

Meshing
To increase the size of the graftWhen we have limited area of donor
![Page 11: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Skin flaps:
A skin flap consists of skin and subcutaneous tissue that survives based on its own blood supply.
Use a skin flap for wound coverage when inadequate vascularity of the wound bed prevents skin graft survival.
![Page 12: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Local flap:
Use local flaps for defects that are adjacent to the donor site.
![Page 13: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Free flap:
"Free" implies that the tissue, along with its blood supply, is detached from the original location ("donor site") and then transferred to another location ("recipient site").
![Page 14: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Tissue expansion (we use it to take a flap or agraft)insert the inflatable expander beneath the skin and periodically, over weeks or months, injects a saline solution to slowly stretch the overlaying skin.
excess skin is grown purposely by expansionremove it and transplant it to another site where skin was lost.

Craniofacial surgery
Craniofacial surgery is divided into pediatric and adult craniofacial surgery. Pediatric craniofacial surgery involves around the treatment of congenital anomalies of the craniofacial skeleton and soft tissues, such as cleft lip and palate, craniosynostosis, and pediatric fractures. Adult craniofacial surgery deals mostly with fractures.

CLEFT LIP AND PALATE:
Cleft lip and palate:Congenital deformity caused by abnormal facial development during gestation:
Types:Types of cleft lip :1- INCOMPLETE a small gap or an indentation in the lip .2- COMPLETE
Continues into the nose Lip cleft can occur as one sided (unilateral) or two sided (bilateral). It is due to the failure of fusion of the maxillary and medial nasal processes (formation of the primary palate).
![Page 19: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Cleft palate: Less common than cleft lipIn most cases, cleft lip is also present .
Usually affect soft palate and posterior third of hard palate.
Palate cleft can occur complete (soft and hard palate) incomplete (a 'hole' in the roof of the mouth, usually as a cleft soft palate).
When cleft palate occurs, the uvula is usually split .
The hole in the roof of the mouth caused by a cleft connects the mouth directly to the nasal cavity.

Craniosynostosis
Craniosynostosis a condition in which the sutures (soft spots) in the skull of an infant close too early, causing problems with normal brain and skull growth. Premature closure of the sutures may also cause the pressure inside of the head to increase and the skull or facial bones to change from a normal, symmetrical appearance.

Hand surgery
Hand surgery is concerned with acute injuries and chronic diseases of the hand and wrist, correction of congenital malformations of the upper extremities, and peripheral nerve problems (such as brachial plexus injuries or carpal tunnel syndrome) .

2-failure of parts of the hand to separate:
Syndactyly is the most common congenital hand deformity
There is a familial tendency to develop this deformity .
This deformity usually involves both hands.
two types of syndactyly:
simple syndactyly - involves fusion between only the tissues of the fingers.
complex syndactyly - involves fusion between the bones .

Trigger finger
Trigger finger is the popular name of stenosing tenosynovitis, a painful condition in which a finger or thumb locks when it is bent (flexed) or straightened (extended).Due to narrowing of the sheath that surrounds the tendon in the affected finger, or a nodule forms on the tendon.It is called trigger finger because when the finger unlocks, it pops back suddenly, as if releasing a trigger on a gun.
![Page 41: Presentation & Management of Common Problems in Plastic Surgery Presented by Anas Albarrak Ali Alsaleemi Hasan Alomaish](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051415/56649d6e5503460f94a4ebc3/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Causes:Overuse, repetitive or frequent movement of the fingers.
TraumaAccident
Clinical Picture:
Affected digits may become painful to straighten once bentSoft crackling sound when moved.Props back suddenly when straightenedUsually worse in the morning and improve during the day

Treatment: local steroid injections and splinting (weeks to
months) 70% will respond Surgery: cut the sheath that is restricting the
tendon.

•3 -extended abdominoplasty •is a complete abdominoplasty that
extends to the fronts of the thighs and flanks (sides) .

Site of liposuction;the chin, on the hips, thighs, and stomach, and in the under arm and breast areas .complications:
1-injury to the skin or deeper tissue 2-irregular skin surface
3-greater risks if large areas are treated
