Chat transcript

08:48:40	 From  Kunal : sir is using monopolar cautery near perf also
08:48:48	 From  Kunal : how to make that safe
08:49:08	 From  Venkat : Good morning. Could you share your experience on dividing the pedicle of a free flap during secondary thinning procedure?
08:49:13	 From  Gaurav B. Shetty : coldzone bipolar / monopolar

hotzone bipolar/ monopolar???
08:49:49	 From  Gaurav B. Shetty : which is more harmful monopolar or bipolar near the perforator?
08:50:56	 From  Kalyan Das : when we are harvesting a large ALT flap can we do the same? can we do further thinning at sub dermal level anatomically?
08:51:28	 From  Dr.vikram Rathore : do you infiltrate margins of Alt flap ?
08:51:55	 From  Dr. Kaushik Nandy : Do you always find the superficial fascia..I mean 100%? If not, what is your approach.
08:51:56	 From  Venkat : What is your policy on tackling the nerve branches during proximal dissection of the pedicle?
08:52:00	 From  Note 4 : Thanks for wonderful presentation.... What is ur take on reliability of hand held doppler in perforator identification? 
08:53:16	 From  Abhay Agrawal : The superficial fascia - do you include it in the flap or go supra - superficial fascia ?
08:53:24	 From  Venkat : Thanks Prof Hong for the answer 
08:53:35	 From  Gaurav B. Shetty : Have you attempted flap thinning of an ALT with a liposuction cannula?
08:53:47	 From  Rajan Tondon’s iPhone : do radically thinned ALT flaps have limits in their size ?
08:54:30	 From  Cinjini Das : With what width of the flap is primary closure of the donor defect possible, as with thin ALT the deep fat layer at the donor area should make primary closure difficult.
08:54:57	 From  Gaurav B. Shetty : Have you attempted flap thinning of an ALT with a liposuction cannula? as a secondary procedure for cosmesis of the flap?
08:55:42	 From  RG : Good Morning - oes the deep fat n donor site
08:55:49	 From  Rajiv Bharti : good morning sir..... something about hot and cold zones of alt flap .....
08:55:57	 From  RG : does the deep d
08:56:40	 From  Dr. Kaushik Nandy : With this technique do you have as much success in obese patients?
08:56:50	 From  RG : Does the deep jat have problems of SSG take if applied while elevating large flaps , thank you
08:57:05	 From  RG : jat=fat
08:57:31	 From  Kalyan Das : thanks prof  Hong for your presentation and answering .what are your strategies in doing longer duration surgeries (replantation, free flaps) in this time of covid?
08:58:06	 From  Sanjay Maurya : is primarily donor site closure difficult in a thin flap rather than a thick flap
09:00:19	 From  Venkat : Do you use pre-fabrication/ tissue expansion in a staged manner to create a thin flap in obese patients?
09:03:48	 From  Gaurav B. Shetty : thank you So much Sir, 
09:04:00	 From  Gaurav B. Shetty : thank you ma'am for putting out all the questions
09:07:03	 From  Jashvanth C T : Thank you very much sir..!

09:09:03	 From  Dr. Kaushik Nandy : There is only a small defect in the deep fascia. Any compartment syndrome risks?
09:10:00	 From  RG : thank you very much sir , compliments and gratitude Madam for this excellent zoom session, Regards
09:11:28	 From  Akshay Deshpande : Thank you
