    This study presents an improved splint fixation method for cross-leg flaps using Resur Trovidur PE. The novel technique offers easy adjustability and sterilization, proving effective in clinical application.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic surgery
    • Plastic surgery
    • Biomaterials science

    Background:

    • Cross-leg flaps are a reconstructive technique requiring stable fixation for successful healing.
    • Traditional fixation methods can be cumbersome and difficult to adjust during surgery.
    • The need for improved, adaptable fixation methods in flap surgery is recognized.

    Observation:

    • A novel splint fixation method utilizing pre-operatively constructed Resur Trovidur PE splints was developed.
    • These splints are characterized by their ease of removal and reapplication.
    • The material's sterilizability and the splints' adjustability during operation were key features.

    Findings:

    • The improved splint fixation method was successfully applied in two clinical cases.

  • The technique demonstrated applicability and effectiveness both intraoperatively and during the post-operative immobilization phase.
  • Resur Trovidur PE splints provided secure and adjustable fixation for cross-leg flaps.

    • Implications:

    • This method offers a potentially superior alternative for cross-leg flap fixation, enhancing surgical efficiency.
    • The use of adaptable, sterilizable splints may improve patient outcomes by ensuring optimal flap positioning.
    • Further investigation into this technique could lead to wider adoption in reconstructive surgery.
