Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Del R. Sloneker's research focuses on reconstructive surgery techniques, particularly those involving free tissue transfer for head and neck reconstruction. Sloneker has investigated novel approaches like non-vascularized fibular cortex grafts in midface reconstruction and osseoseptocutaneous fibular free flaps. Additionally, their work addresses postoperative care and complications, including a prospective cohort study on a tracheostomy decannulation protocol following head and neck free flap reconstruction. Sloneker also contributes to the literature on specific otologic complications, such as cerebrospinal fluid otorrhea after tympanostomy tube placement, examining its association with Hyrtl's fissure. Their research network includes collaborators from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, with whom they have co-authored publications.
