About this study

This is a case series study conducted at plastic surgery department Sohag University including 20 patients The aim of this thesis is to evaluate reliability and versatility of Supraclavicular artery flap in the reconstruction of traumatic and non-traumatic defects of head and neck.With adequate documentation of functional, aesthetic outcome and patient satisfaction through; clinical examination , photographic documentation and doctor and patient satisfaction charts

Being tested
Reconstruction of Soft tissue defects of head and neck by Supraclavicular artery flap

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Reconstruction of Soft tissue defects of head and neck by Supraclavicular artery flapProcedure or surgery

    Supraclavicular artery flap will be used in the reconstruction of traumatic and non-traumatic defects of head and neck.Flap harvesting and reconstruction will be performed under general anesthesia. The defect dimensions are measured and the superficial landmarks for the supraclavicular artery are drawn .The flap will be used as island flap, transposed or interpolated flap depending on the arc of rotation needed to achieve flap inset without tension and flap elevation proceeds from lateral to medial.The flap is rotated and inset into the defect

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Flap Success

    The flap success will be measured by percentage of patients in which there is flap survival versus percentage of patient with flap necrosis

    Measured: 6 month post-surgery

  2. Flap complications

    assessment of flap complication will be assessed by percentage of patients in which there is flap dehiscence , flap infection and flap necrosis

    Measured: 6 months post-surgery

  3. patients satisfaction as regard flap color match

    patient satisfaction as will be assessed with questionnaire

    Measured: 6 months post-surgery

  4. patients satisfaction as regard flap texture match

    patient satisfaction as will be assessed with questionnaire

    Measured: 6 months post-surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Possible flap lengths

    The achieved flap length will be measured in centimeters

    Measured: 6 months post-surgery

  2. Possible flap widths

    The achieved flap width will be measured in centimeters

    Measured: 6 months post-surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Reconstruction of Soft tissue defects of head and neck by Supraclavicular artery flap in people with Reconstruction of Head Soft Tissue Defects and Reconstruction of Neck Soft Tissue Defects, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
