2001年8月1日 · The use of a single V-Y plasty has replaced the original technique that repaired the digit and restored the contour of the fingertip. Good cosmetic and functional results can be obtained.

V-Y plasty is a reliable technique used in covering defects and wounds or in lengthening some anatomic structures. In this study we presented the results of 81 patients who underwent V-Y plasty operations in different parts of the body.

The authors present an overview of the V-Y plasty technique with a discussion of the basic underlying principles and a description of the surgical technique. The variations available and the direct application of this procedure are discussed with reference to the foot and ankle.

The V-Y plasty technique is an island pedi-cle flap procedure. While most local flaps rotate into a wound from nearby tissues, bringing the blood supply with the intact

For dorsal oblique and transverse amputations, the Atasoy V-Y advancement flap is a popular choice because it preserves finger length, sensation and function. However, closure under tension remains a problem, putting the flap at risk of partial or full necrosis.

V-Y plasty proved to be an efficient technique for removing the aberrant labial frenum attachment, and the results were highly satisfactory, with less scar formation. V-Y plasty is reliable for covering defects and elongating the frenum area, giving desired clinical outcomes.

The new modification of V-Y plasty, called “distant V-Y plasty”, was easily used in defects of the nasal dorsum when the defect had a diameter of more than 0.5 mm, according to the classification of Burget and Burget .

a technique in which a flap is incised in the shape of a V but advanced and inset so that the resulting suture line has the shape of a Y; used to gain additional length of tissue. Synonym (s): V-Y plasty. Farlex Partner Medical Dictionary © Farlex 2012. n.

While thicker septa might require complex reconstructive surgery, this paper proposes a simple technique for the surgical management of thin septa, utilising two interdigitating Y-plasties, without the need for excision of any septal tissue.

2023年2月2日 · This is done using a classic plastic surgery tissue arrangement technique known as a V-Y plasty. The mucosa is initially cut in a large V from the wet-dry line of the lip down to the frenulum. The mucosa is then undermined and released from the deeper tissue from the bottom of the V upward until the mucosa rolls onto the visible external lip.
