Abstract
A child with a maxillary Ewing sarcoma was operated for tumor
asportation and reconstruction with free fibula flap. Adequate
anticoagulation was achieved with lower doses of heparin and monitored
with multiple ACT values. We used NIRS monitoring to avoid
hypoperfusion. Post-operative pain relief was guarantited by local
anestethic continous infusion.26 Jan 2022Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 27 Jan 2022Submission Checks Completed
