Soft Tissue augmentation is a way to restore lost tissue and also a way to reshape confidence for patients who suffer from soft tissue loss. Materials that can realize such a function are called soft tissue fillers. Among the large number of fillers, injectable fillers have attracted widespread attention in facial cosmetic fields due to their convenience and competitive performance. Meanwhile, there is a huge demand for better injectable soft tissue fillers in medical cosmetology market. This review introduces several fillers which were once used in clinical or are now still in use. Furthermore, we update recent improvements and progress on injectable filling materials hoping to contribute to its further developments.

Vascular injuries to the upper or lower limb in the context of significant soft tissue loss, fractures, or other life-threatening injuries are associated with a high amputation rate. Complex extremity vascular injuries in which acute arterial insufficiency combined with severe or prolonged shocks are unacceptable because warm, warm, skeletal muscle time is often exceeded before adequate revascularization, and are associated with extended ischemia periods or fractures or soft tissue wounds. Revascularizing the limb is essential for the success of the limb rescue. Selective intravascular temporary shunting hence allows better overall care of the patient and can therefore be predicted to increase both limb rescue and patient survival rates. The aim of this article was to review and summarize results of previous literature regarding effectiveness on intravascular shunting as management of limb trauma as well as reviewing its potential complications.

Over a 20-year period, six patients (19 tendons) underwent two-staged extensor tendon reconstruction using silicone rods followed by palmaris longus tendon grafts sutured proximally to the divided flexor carpi radialis tendon. All patients were young men (mean age, 22 years) who sustained the injury in car accidents. The soft tissue loss from the dorsum of the hand was associated with extensor tendon loss over the entire zone 6 with or without loss in zone 7. Primary soft tissue coverage was done elsewhere, and patients presented for secondary tendon reconstruction. All patients had supple metacarpophalangeal joints before reconstruction. After the two-staged tendon reconstruction, full or near-full active flexion at the metacarpophalangeal joints was obtained in all patients. However, minor extension lags (10°–15°) at the metacarpophalangeal joints were seen in 15 out of 19 reconstructed fingers.

Isolated dislocations of the middle cuneiform are uncommon. There have been four reported previously. Significant force is required to produce these injuries, and they can have serious neurovascular consequences. In this case report and review of the literature, we present an isolated middle cuneiform dislocation in a 69-year-old farmer with impending skin and soft tissue loss over the dislocated bone.
