Clinical Programs/Methods

At Nationwide Children’s Hospital, the OSU Division of Plastic Surgery conducts two major multidisciplinary clinical programs:

• The Craniofacial Clinic, and
• The Vascular Malformations Clinic

These clinical programs serve as centers for patient care, as well as clinical and basic translational research.

New clinical methods recently introduced at Ohio State include:

• Cancer-related reconstructive surgery, particularly in the area of breast reconstruction
  
• Microsurgical breast reconstruction, including state-of-the-art techniques using perforator flaps, have been performed for the first time at Ohio State's Medical Center and represent a unique service within the region
• Enhanced microvascular surgery services have resulted in more comprehensive care for trauma patients, particularly those with lower extremity trauma
