Management of cleft lip and palate in Egypt: A National survey
Conclusion: Management of CLP in Egypt is mainly dependent on personal preference, not on constitutional protocols. There is a lack of multidisciplinary approach and patients’ registration systems in the majority of centres. The establishment of cleft teams from the concerned medical specialties is highly recommended for a more efficient care of cleft patients. (Source: Indian Journal of Plastic Surgery)

Free fibula flap for lower limb salvage after tumour resection
Conclusions: Pedicled fibula is a good option if the defect is within 14 cm of the knee joint at the femoral end. The vessels have to curve around the fibular head, thus its removal improves the reach of the pedicle. The flap is easy to harvest with predictable vascular anatomy and it can provide a large amount of vascularised bone and skin paddle. It results in early ambulation, rehabilitation and reduced morbidity. We realised that fixation is easier and chances of vascular injury are less in free as compared to pedicled fibula.

Intraoperative partial pressure of oxygen measurement to predict flap survival
Conclusions: Flap areas having intra-operative pO2value <86.3 mmHG have higher chances (60.71%) of getting necrosis later. Similarly, if diff-pO2compared to fingertip is >68.5 mmHg, chances of those points getting necrosed in post-operative period are high. (Source: Indian Journal of Plastic Surgery)
