Genital gender affirming surgery in trans men
CONCLUSION: This surgical decision must therefore be shared with the person concerned, based on a clear understanding of their expectations and objectives. Long-term follow-up is recommended.PMID:37635042 | DOI:10.1016/j.anplas.2023.08.001 (Source: Annales de Chirurgie)

Description of a vaginoplasty technique using a peritoneal flap harvested by coelioscopic approach for male-to-female gender affirmations (MtF)
CONCLUSION: Despite its promises, the widespread adoption of the peritoneal flap technique in male-to-female (MtF) gender affirmation surgery is hindered by several challenges, including the need for specialized training and potential postoperative complications. Thus, this technique should be considered as an alternative or complement to traditional methods, depending on individual patient factors. Further research and extensive clinical trials are needed to better understand its potential and limitations in order to enhance the arsenal of effective surgical options for MtF gender affirmation surgery.PMID:37596142 | DOI:1...

Local administration of amphotericin B by VAC instillation: Therapeutic aid in the treatment of mucormycosis
We report the case of a 37-year-old female patient with no previous medical history who developed a disseminated mucormycosis, with an estimated 25 % loss of skin substance and major decay of the chest wall. In addition to standard treatment, local instillations of amphotericin B using the VAC Veraflow® system were performed. We believe that local instillations of amphotericin B by VAC could improve the functional prognosis of patients with skin involvement.PMID:37596143 | DOI:10.1016/j.anplas.2023.07.011 (Source: Annales de Chirurgie)

Sociological aspects of transgenrism
Ann Chir Plast Esthet. 2023 Aug 16:S0294-1260(23)00083-3. doi: 10.1016/j.anplas.2023.07.009. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe surgery of trans people is not apprehended by most of plastic surgeons as a simple surgery for the purpose of morphological transformation. At the same time, the French trans population does not benefit from adequate surgical coverage. Over the past few years, French regulations have simplified the process of reassignment surgeries. In addition, we have witnessed a fairly rapid increase in requests for transition surgery with accelerated and sometimes atypical courses. In recent years, a number of ...

Thoracic reassignment surgeries
Ann Chir Plast Esthet. 2023 Aug 16:S0294-1260(23)00082-1. doi: 10.1016/j.anplas.2023.07.008. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThoracic reassignment surgeries are the most common gender reassignment surgeries. They represent the first and sometimes the only step in the reassignment process for transgender patients. Surgical techniques for thoracic reassignment derive from those used for the cisgender population and are accessible to plastic surgeons who do not usually treat transgender patients. On the other hand, there are some anatomical differences between men and women that they should understand, for instance, the positio...

Transitions, reinventing the genre
Ann Chir Plast Esthet. 2023 Aug 1:S0294-1260(23)00068-7. doi: 10.1016/j.anplas.2023.06.007. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOur consultations are saturated by an influx of requests from young people - and very often from their parents - for whom the binarity of the boy/girl classification has been shattered, and whose only watchword is: "I choose my gender, my sexuality, my body, my way of being, of moving and representing myself, I want to become what I am". For them, anatomy is no longer a fatality: hormones, mutilating and restorative surgeries, increasingly sophisticated aesthetic techniques make it possible to adapt the...
