Abstract
AIMS Several studies showed that Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) could affect gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) onset. The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of GDM risk factors in a cohort of women with singleton pregnancy obtained by ART and complicated by GDM. Maternal and neonatal outcomes were explored. METHODS We retrospectively collected data of pregnancies of women with singleton pregnancy obtained by ART and complicated by GDM consecutively cared for at a specialized center for diabetes and pregnancy care. Prevalence and combination of GDM risk factors, their combinations and maternal-fetal outcomes were estimated. RESULTS Overall, our cohort included 50 women (mean age of 40.4 ± 4.7 years, mean pre-pregnancy BMI 26.3 ± 6.2 kg/m2). The most frequent GDM traditional risk factors were age ≥ 35 years (94 %), family history of diabetes (44 %), overweight (29 %) and obesity (19 %). Combining risk factors, 5 groups were identified with 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 risk factors with a prevalence respectively of 28 %, 46 %, 20 %, 4 %, and 2 %. Examining features of the above groups, pre-pregnancy weight (p < 0.0001) and pre-pregnancy BMI (p < 0.0001) statistically significant differed in the 5 groups, increasing with higher numbers of risk factors. Regarding neonatal outcomes only neonatal hypoglycemia (p = 0.03) differed significantly among the groups, with higher percentages in women with higher numbers of combined risk factors. CONCLUSION Prevalence of GDM traditional risk factors in singleton ART pregnancies complicated by GDM is considerable. Such pregnancies need appropriate clinical attention because of the risk of adverse outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The management of 10 cases of penile inflammatory granulomas following a subcutaneous injection of non-absorbable substance for the purpose of penile augmentation is presented. We subsequently used the bilateral scrotal flaps to cover the post-excision skin defect. A simple decision aid chart outlining the management of penile foreign body injections is proposed. METHODS A total of 10 patients were included in this study. All required surgical management by penile degloving, followed by complete excision of the inflammatory granuloma and overlying skin. The dissection of 14 cadavers was carried out to study the blood supply to the anterior scrotal flap. Penile reconstruction was then performed using a bilateral scrotal flap in all but two cases. Post-operatively, the patients were followed up for a 1 year period. RESULTS We obtained good results in terms of the aesthetic outcome with all of our ten patients with the area covered having similar color to penile skin. There were no major post-operative complications. There were two minor complications involving wound healing. Sensory function was maintained and no penile shortening or curvatures were noted, in addition all patients were satisfied with both the shape and function of the penis. CONCLUSION Although much rarer, penile augmentation related complications are still seen in western countries. The treating doctor should be aware of its management. We had achieved acceptable outcomes in our experience with the bilateral scrotal flap. We believe it is a good and simple option for soft tissue coverage of the penis in cases following the complete inflammatory granuloma excision. It can achieve satisfactory aesthetic and functional results for this group of patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The correction of cutaneous deficiency encountered in clinodactyly is an important aspect of its treatment. The use of the skin lining of an adjacent duplicated toe as a « spare-part » flap may be of interest in providing good quality tissue. CLINICAL CASE We report the case of a child with complete duplication of the 5th toe associated with clinodactyly. The use of a heterodactyl flap taken from the amputated toe allows the release of a plantar cutaneous flange of the preserved toe. DISCUSSION The concept of « spare-part » flap is mainly used in hand surgery in traumatic lesions of the fingers. Its application in the treatment of clinodactyly on the occasion of the regularization of a polydactyly is also interesting because some fingers or toes are intended to be amputated to render a classical anatomy of five-toed foot. It is necessary for the realization of this type of flap on malformative toes to verify the existence of a distinct viable pedicle of the amputated toe, which can be done only intraoperatively. CONCLUSION The surgery for congenital malformations of the toes requires perfect management of the skin capital. The use of a « spare-part » toe flap taken from the toe to be amputated is a viable solution for the treatment of a cutaneous flessum encountered in a clinodactyly of the adjacent finger.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Umbilical necrosis is a well-known complication of abdominoplasty, the risk of this complication can be increased when an associated umbilical hernia requires further dissection in peri-umbilical region, potentially leading to umbilical devascularisation. Multiple minimally invasive open techniques were described to avoid this problem. The combined approach of abdominoplasty with laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair is one promising solution to avoid devascularising the umbilicus. METHODS A retrospective evaluation of patients who underwent concomitant abdominoplasty with laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair from 2007 to 2017 was carried out. All patients were followed up and evaluated for complications, including the incidence of umbilical skin necrosis. RESULTS A total of 47 patients were included in this study. The average operative duration was 3.3hours with an average hospital stay of 2.5 days. No cases of postoperative umbilical necrosis were encountered. A mean follow-up period was 2.4 years showed no cases of hernia or rectus abdominis diastasis recurrence. Minor complications included 4 cases of dehiscence, one hematoma. There was no major complications. CONCLUSION The concomitant use of laparoscopic umbilical hernia repair and abdominoplasty is a feasible approach to reduce the risks of umbilical devascularization. Especially in larger hernias and in patients with higher risk of recurrence.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The surgical management of pressure ulcers in the paraplegic or quadriplegic population is marked by the high risk of recurrence in the long-term. In the current era of perforator flaps, newer reconstructive options are available for the management of pressure ulcers, decreasing the need to use the classically described muscular or musculocutaneous locoregional flaps. The coverage of ischial sores described in this article by a pedicled flap based on a deep femoral artery perforator, appears to be an effective first-line reconstructive option for the management of limited size pressure ulcers. PATIENTS AND METHOD A number of fifteen paraplegic or quadriplegic patients having at least one ischial bed sore with underlying osteomyelitis were included in this series. The approximate location of the deep femoral artery perforator was initially identified using the "The Atlas of the perforator arteries of the skin, the trunk and limbs", which was confirmed, with the use of a Doppler device. A fasciocutaneous transposition flap was elevated, with the pivot point based on the cutaneous bridge centered on the perforator, and then transposed to cover the area of tissue loss. The donor site was closed primarily. RESULTS A total of fifteen patients were operated from November 2015 to November 2016. The series comprised of 16 first presentations of a stage 4 pressure ulcers associated with underlying osteomyelitis that were subsequently reconstructed by the pedicled deep femoral artery perforator flap. The healing rate and functional results were both satisfactory. CONCLUSION Fasciocutaneous flap reliable by deep femoral artery perforator appears to have a promising role in the treatment of ischial pressure sores. It is an attractive option to spare the use of musculocutaneous flaps in the area. Thus this flap could be used as a first-line option to cover ischial pressure ulcers of limited size.

Abstract
Female genital cosmetic surgery is becoming more and more widespread both in the field of plastic and gynaecological surgery. The increased demand for vulvar surgery is spurred by the belief that the vulva is abnormal in appearance. What is normal in terms of labial anatomy? Labia minora enlargement or hypertrophy remains a clinical diagnosis which is poorly defined as it could be considered a variation of the normal anatomy. Enlarged labia minora can cause functional, aesthetic and psychosocial problems. In reality, given the wide variety of vulvar morphology among people, it is a very subjective issue to define the "normal" vulva. The spread of nudity in the general media plays a major role in creating an artificial image and standards with regard to the ideal form. Physicians should be aware that the patient's self-perception of the normal or ideal vulva is highly influenced by the arguably distorted image related to our socio-psychological environment, as presented to us by the general media and internet. As physicians, we have to educate our patients on the variation of vulvar anatomy and the potential risks of these surgeries.
