Reconstruction of Areolar Projection Using a Purse-String Suture Technique
BACKGROUND Nipple-areolar complex creation is the last step in the breast reconstruction process and plays a significant role in patients' overall satisfaction. Although numerous surgical techniques have been described to create the nipple, very few procedures address the natural contour of the areola. METHODS We describe a surgical technique using a purse-string suture for improved areolar p...
متن کاملNipple reconstruction using a two-step purse-string suture technique.
Formation of an aesthetic nipple areola complex with lasting projection remains a challenging final step in breast reconstruction. Despite the many techniques that have been described, no single approach has emerged as the gold standard. The current study presents a novel technique in nipple areola complex reconstruction. In a two-step fashion, the nipple and areola are reconstructed independen...
متن کاملNew technology applications: Knotless barbed suture for tracheal resection anastomosis.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Tracheal resection anastomoses are often under tension and can be technically challenging. New suture materials such as V-loc (barbed, knotless wound closure device) may offer advantages over conventional methods. The objective of this study is to determine if a running V-loc suture is of comparable tensile strength to conventional closure. STUDY DESIGN Laboratory based ...
متن کاملUse of absorbable running barbed suture and progressive tension technique in abdominoplasty: a novel approach.
Certain general principles regarding abdominoplasty have remained constant throughout the last century, although incision patterns, fascial repair, and fatty contour techniques have varied. What has remained constant has been the use of a layered closure technique for final wound approximation, including in most cases the closure of Scarpa’s fascia, popularized by the work of Lockwood.1 Controv...
