Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study reports the experience in free tissue transfer in the elderly population by a single surgeon in the private practice setting in Mexico city and the potential criticism that could arise from adverse events in lower-volume practice situations will be addressed. Investigator will answer the question about the age as the variable of interest in this series in which age was not a factor in deciding reconstructive methods, and examine complication rates.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Investigators will evaluate the outcomes of 17 flaps in 14 patients who required microsurgical reconstruction with free flaps and microvascular vessels anastomosis. All patients more than 65 years old. Demographic data will be reported as: obesity, American Society of Anesthesiology (asa) level, radiotherapy, combined surgery. And the results of investigation will include: Flap survival, local complications, systemic complications, re-interventions, 30-day mortality.
