3. Nasal reconstruction using a paramedian forehead flap

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasal_reconstruction_using...

   The flap is incised and elevated over the periosteum from distal to proximal. [1] The flap consists of skin, subcutaneous tissue, fat and frontalis muscle and is not thinned. When reaching the brow, all of the skin borders are incised and the flap is carefully released. [1] The full-thickness flap is then sutured into the defect without tension.

4. Rotation flap - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_flap

   A rotation flap is a semicircular skin flap that is rotated into the defect on a fulcrum point. Rotation flaps provide the ability to mobilize large areas of tissue with a wide vascular base for reconstruction. The flap must be adequately large, and a large base is necessary if a back-cut will be needed to lengthen the flap.

The mitral valve and the tricuspid valve are known as the atrioventricular valves because they lie between the atria and the ventricles. [1]

7. Pharyngeal flap surgery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharyngeal_flap_surgery

   Research has found that pharyngeal flap surgery has been most effective for those with a sagittal closure pattern (good lateral wall movement but poor velar movement (Armour et al., 2005)). Pharyngeal flap surgery is not recommended for everyone and alternative treatment methods are available. One alternative is the use of a prosthesis. In some ...
