What is Onco-Trauma Combined Reconstruction Surgery?

This surgery addresses reconstructive challenges that arise from cancer surgeries and traumatic injuries. It blends principles of oncological reconstruction with trauma repair, aiming to optimize both functional and aesthetic outcomes. It often involves microsurgery, local and regional flaps, and free tissue transfers, particularly useful in head and neck, breast, bone, and lower limb reconstructions.
Common Indications
- Patients recovering from cancer surgery with significant tissue loss
- Individuals with facial or limb trauma requiring reconstructive procedures
- Cases involving head and neck cancer with bone or soft tissue involvement
- Breast cancer survivors needing post-mastectomy reconstruction
Techniques Used
- Free flap reconstruction using microsurgical precision for large tissue defects
- Pedicled flap surgeries to restore local tissue volume and contour
- Skin grafts and soft tissue transfers for functional restoration
- Bone reconstruction using vascularized grafts or implants for limb salvage
About the Surgery/Treatment
Onco-trauma reconstruction procedures are tailored to address tissue loss from both cancer and trauma. The goal is to restore mobility, appearance, and quality of life.
Treatment Process
- Initial assessment to evaluate defect size and functional loss
- Surgical planning with imaging and flap mapping
- Tissue transfer using microsurgical or regional flap techniques
- Post-operative wound management and physiotherapy
Benefits of this Surgery
- Restores critical functions such as speech, movement, or limb use
- Enhances physical appearance and boosts confidence

- Supports complete rehabilitation post cancer or trauma treatment
These surgeries represent a blend of reconstructive artistry and medical precision, offering patients renewed hope and holistic recovery.

When the slab suddenly fell on us while we were sleeping on the floor at midnight, I was terrified. But your calm words, gentle approach, and encouragement made me feel safe and hopeful. You not only treated my injuries—you healed my fear too. I will always recommend you, not just for your skill, but for the compassion you show.

Dr. Bharat Saxena is exceptionally passionate about his work, approaching it with the dedication of someone who truly worships his profession. Meeting him changed my perspective on how compassionate and humble a doctor can be, especially in a country like India, where human life often isn’t valued as it should be. In these times, Dr. Saxena stands out, treating his patients with the utmost respect, care, and compassion. I am profoundly grateful to Dr. Saxena for the way he treated my father during his mouth cancer surgery. He assured us that my father’s face would look flawless after the procedure, and true to his word, no one can tell that he underwent surgery. My entire family is indebted to his care and professionalism. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors and pray that his passion for his work continues to shine.
