This ASPS Global Partners Webinar features expert plastic surgeons from Australia presenting state-of-the-art techniques in head and neck reconstruction. Dr. Sydney Ch’ng explores surgical refinements in scalp and nasal reconstruction with a focus on sequencing in patients undergoing adjuvant therapy. Dr. Anand Ramakrishnan offers insights into optimizing outcomes using Virtual Surgical Planning (VSP) for bony head and neck reconstruction. Dr. Damien Grinsell introduces a novel application of the deep circumflex iliac artery (DCIA) free flap for mid-face reconstruction. Moderated by Dr. Nicola Dean, this session highlights precision, planning, and innovation in complex reconstructive surgery.

Intended Audience
Plastic and reconstructive surgeons, head and neck microsurgeons, maxillofacial surgeons, and surgical trainees interested in high-complexity craniofacial reconstruction and digital planning strategies. 

Learning Objectives

By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

1. Apply sequencing and technique refinements in reconstructing scalp and nasal defects in oncologic patients.

2. Utilize best practices in case selection, planning, and outcome tracking when performing VSP-assisted bony reconstructions.

3. Evaluate indications, advantages, and limitations of the DCIA flap for mid-facial reconstruction.
