title: Analysis of complex postextirpative deformity.
abstract: Reconstruction in the oncologic setting requires of the plastic surgeon a careful and concise thought process. Analysis of a complex deformity/dysfunction is problem solving, and postextirpative reconstruction is simply a variation of the same theme. An analysis model has been developed ("Here-There") that can be useful as a guide for the process of analysis as well as a teaching model for residents.
