DIEP flap salvage by cannula venesection of the superficial inferior epigastric vein

ANATOMY OF THE SUPERFICIAL INFERIOR EPIGASTRIC ARTERY FLAP

 ABSTRACT Background: Several case studies have described the use of the superficial inferior epigastric artery (SIEA) flap as a pedicled flap for reconstruction of upper and lower ex tremities, or a free fasciocutaneous flap when a large amount of skin coverage is required for hemifacial atrophy, breast or head and neck reconstruction. Apparently, the anatomical findings of previous studies ar...

Superficial Inferior Epigastric Artery Flap Salvage Technique Using Deep Inferior Epigastric Artery Graft

Superficial inferior epigastric artery (SIEA) flap salvage remains challenging, particularly in cases of arterial insufficiency due to vessel spasm, pedicle kinking, or thrombosis. The already small, short SIEA pedicle, in addition to its inherent tendency toward spasm, renders the SIEA flap more difficult to manage when anastomotic revision is required. Furthermore, arterial thrombosis will ca...

Abstract P8. Anatomy of Superficial Inferior Epigastric Vessels: Revival of Superficial Inferior Epigastric (SIEA) Flap

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to determine if depressed women undergoing breast reconstruction have worse outcomes? Despite a plethora of data examining the effect of depression after reconstruction there is little information to assess if concurrent depression affects patient outcomes in a similar manner. To answer this question we undertook a retrospective study using the Nationwide I...
