    Abstract Neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK)-rearranged spindle cell neoplasms are a recently described group of soft tissue tumors. They commonly present as a painless mass on the extremities of children and young adults. They are characterized microscopically by a heterogeneous spectrum of infiltrative spindle cell proliferations, which can morphologically mimic several other spindle cell neoplasms. Their identification is vital, as they may be amenable to treatment with tyrosine kinase-targeted therapy. This case report describes a rare NTRK3-rearranged spindle cell neoplasm in the groin of a 29-year-old female and provides further clinical and morphological features of this entity.

    Abstract Introduction: Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, there was concern that virtual or remote multidisciplinary teams (MDT) meetings represented a niche concept that was unlikely to replace traditional face-to-face meetings in the management of cancer. However, the sudden shift to virtual meetings during COVID-19 has been one of the most dramatic changes since the inception of the MDT. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of virtual skin MDTs since the move to virtual meetings.
    Methods: A cross-sectional survey was sent to all Specialist Skin Cancer MDTs (SSMDTs) and the British Association of Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgeons Skin Oncology Special Interest and Advisory Group.
    Results: There were 68 responses (55.3% response rate) from 36 SSMDTs in the UK. Respondents felt communication, chairing, and decision-making were similar in virtual and in-person MDTs, but the team working was worse in virtual meetings. Recruitment, data security, and patient confidentiality were maintained in virtual MDTs. Most preferred a hybrid format for future MDTs, with the option to attend virtually. Recommendations for improvement included better connectivity, IT support, training, and staff integration.
    Conclusion: The virtual MDT is here to stay. We highlight the strengths and weaknesses of remote virtual skin MDTs. It is key that we look at ways to retain team working to ensure that the collegiate nature of MDT working, and therefore treatment options for patients, are not lost in this transformation in MDT delivery.

    Abstract Flap monitoring charts and escalation protocols are ubiquitous amongst microsurgical departments and can facilitate converting flap observations into flap monitoring decisions. However, human factors in the recognition-communication process of decision-making still pose a threat to timely intervention and thus are a key determinant of success in microvascular surgery. Digitally transforming paper-based pathways may facilitate early recognition and escalation to potentially salvage a free flap with compromised vascularity. We describe the early adoption and use case of a ChatBot to support clinical decision-making support for free flap monitoring - the 'FlapBot'.

    Abstract Introduction: The process of carving an auricular framework is technically challenging and unique to the patient. As such, there is a need for a robust and reliable training model for practicing and planning ear reconstruction. The aim of this study is to assess the best models and methods available to practice the carving of an auricular framework.
    Methods: A systematic review was undertaken in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses guidelines using MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases. Terms such as "ear", "reconstruction" and "teaching" were searched.
    Results: A total of 354 articles were identified, and 13 studies met the inclusion criteria. Vegetables, animal tissue, synthetic materials, as well as more advanced methods such as 3D-printed moulds, were analysed. The similarity of these materials to human costal cartilage was investigated to determine the best or most suitable ones for the purpose. The methods used in the studies were also analysed. Due to heterogeneity of the studies, it was not possible to conduct a quantitative analysis.
    Conclusion: This review identifies that for the junior surgeons at the skill acquisition phase of their training in auricular framework carving repetition using firstly a cheap synthetic material would be most useful, followed by animal cartilage or 3D printing using silicone. These materials bear the most resemblance to human costal cartilage, and by repeating the carvings, proficiency will improve. Those surgeons with an established ear reconstruction practise, wishing to undertake immediate pre-operatively simulation could benefit from cross-sectional imaging and 3D printing of a patient's non-affected ear to ensure a good match.

    Abstract Vascular complications from soft tissue fillers can have catastrophic consequences for patients. Adverse events are rare, but they are increasing, and their appearance may be the result of intravascular injection. A comprehensive understanding of the 2-dimensional anatomy (distribution) and 3-dimensional anatomy (depth) of the facial vasculature is fundamental for the safe delivery of nonsurgical cosmetic procedures. The purpose of this review is to provide an illustrated approach to examine surgical anatomy specific to the facial vascular system and the anatomical considerations clinicians need to give in specific danger during injectable cosmetic procedures. A grounding in safety and anatomy will help the new injector to mitigate the risk of vascular complications.
