    Abstract Abdominal-based free flaps are the mainstay of autologous breast reconstruction; however, the region may not be ideal for patients with inadequate soft tissue or history of abdominal surgery. This case describes the use of a novel conjoined flap based on the profunda artery perforator and upper gracilis pedicles, named the perforator and upper gracilis (PUG) flap. This flap design aims to maximize medial thigh flap volume while ensuring robust tissue perforation. Here, we present our experience with the PUG flap in a breast cancer patient undergoing autologous reconstruction. The patient was a 41-year-old woman seeking nipple-sparing mastectomy and immediate autologous reconstruction with the PUG flap due to limited abdominal tissue availability. The gracilis and profunda artery perforator flaps were elevated using one boomerang-style skin paddle. Once harvested, the flaps were inset with antegrade and retrograde flow off the internal mammary arteries and both respective internal mammary veins. The donor site was closed in a V-Y pattern resulting in a thigh lift-type lift and concealed scar. In conclusion, the boomerang-style PUG flap maximizes medial thigh free tissue transfer volume, offers internal blood flow redundancy, and maintains good cosmesis of the donor site.

    Abstract Pseudoarthrosis is a severe complication of spinal fusion surgery with occurrence rates as high as 35%-40%. Current options of revision surgery to correct pseudoarthrosis frequently carry high failure rates and risk of developing junctional kyphosis. Pedicled vascularized bone grafts (VBGs) are an innovative approach to boost spinal fusion rates via improving structural integrity and increasing the delivery of blood to the donor site. This versatile technique can be performed at different spinal levels without additional skin incisions and with minimal added operative time. Here we present the first bilateral rib and iliac crest VBG spinoplastic surgery performed to augment spinal fusion in a 68-year-old woman with distal junctional kyphosis and severe positive sagittal balance with low back and neck pain and significant difficulty standing upright. The patient had history of multiple spinal operations with preoperative CT imaging demonstrating loosening and pull out of L3 and fracture of L2 screws. She underwent two-stage surgical treatment involving anterior lumbar interbody fusion L3-S1 followed by removal of hardware, T4 to pelvis fusion with L2-3 prone lateral interbody fusion, and T11-S1 posterior column osteotomies. The surgery was augmented by bilateral rib and iliac crest VBGs performed by plastic surgery. At three-month follow-up the patient demonstrated functional improvement, being able to maintain upright posture and walk; was satisfied with the result of the surgery; and demonstrated no graft-related complications. In conclusion, utilization of pedicled VBGs is a novel, promising approach to augment spinal surgery in high risk patients.

    Abstract Problem: In the United States, physician bias is exhibited early in medical training and contributes to systemic inequities within the field of medicine. A lack of diversity, equity, inclusion, and antiracism (DEI-AR) content within medical curricula drives critical gaps in knowledge and deficiencies when preparing medical students to serve patients of diverse backgrounds. At the Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine (MCASOM), student-led curricular reviews between 2017 to 2018 and 2020 to 2021 revealed opportunities to improve DEI-AR content within preclinical courses. Course directors expressed concern of limited expertise and time to enact effective changes.
    Approach: The MCASOM DEI-AR teaching assistant (TA) program aims to curate a collaborative partnership between course directors and compensated student TAs to facilitate course enhancements responsive to the prior preclinical course review while centering standardized DEI-AR best practices.
    Outcomes: As of January 2024, the program has engaged 14 TAs and partnered with 24 preclinical courses. Postcourse student evaluation responses were collected from 8 courses for 2021 to 2022 (before enhancements) and 2022 to 2023 (after enhancements). Student satisfaction with DEI-AR content is tracked through postcourse evaluations, with preliminary data demonstrating improvement after DEI-AR curricular integration (improvement of mean preenhancement and postenhancement scores of 3.81 to 4.05; t12 = 1.79, P = .21). Qualitative student comments were sorted into general categories of positive, negative, or neutral, showing a 6.25% median increase in positive perception of DEI.
    Next steps: Plans for the MCASOM DEI-AR TA program include application of quality improvement strategies to improve program processes and outcomes. Development of a centralized dashboard that integrates course enhancement progress and ongoing feedback from evaluations is anticipated to facilitate this effort. The program additionally aims to develop partnerships with clinical clerkships, which would allow for a more comprehensive enhancement of the overall medical education experience related to DEI-AR.

    Abstract Background: Although the overall psychosocial benefits and body image gains of postmastectomy breast reconstruction are well-established, there is limited information on how postoperative complications affect patient quality of life (QOL).
    Study design: A single-institution cross-sectional survey analysis was performed on patients who underwent postmastectomy breast reconstruction between 2008 and 2020. QOL was assessed using the BREAST-Q and the Was It Worth It questionnaires. The results were compared among patients who had major complications, minor complications, and no complications. Responses were compared using 1-way ANOVA and chi-square tests as appropriate.
    Results: A total of 568 patients met inclusion criteria, and 244 patients responded (43% response rate). Most patients did not have any complications (n = 128; 52%), 41 had minor complications (17%), and 75 had major complications (31%). There were no differences in any of the BREAST-Q well-being metrics based on degree of complication. Across all 3 groups, patients reported that surgery was worthwhile (n = 212; 88%), they would choose reconstruction again (n = 203; 85%), and they would recommend it to a friend (n = 196; 82%). Overall, 77% reported that their overall experience either met or exceeded expectations, and 88% of patients had unchanged or improved overall QOL.
    Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that QOL and well-being are not negatively impacted by postoperative complications. Although patients who had no complications had an overall more positive experience, nearly two-thirds of all patients, no matter the degree of complication, stated that their overall experience either met or exceeded their expectations.
