This Lady lost her left ear to a road traffic accident in Zambia. Referred to us for Reconstruction of ear. As a part of reconstruction the scarred area around the external auditory meatus is replaced with microvascular radial forearm free flap with a small opening the edges of which were sutured with the external auditory meatus to maintain external auditory meatal opening. Ear reconstruction with Firmin technique will b planned once the flap is settled. 

Crush injury of the leg with multiple communited fractures of Both bones of leg (compound grade3b). After Debridement and stabilization of wound, Anterolateral thigh flap was harvested from the thigh and the wound on the leg was covered. An end to side anostomosis was done here with Posterior tibial artery because anterior tibial artery gave a surpise during surgery in form of contusion. Flap well healed.
