Lateral thigh perforator flap for breast reconstruction: Computed tomographic angiography analysis and clinical series.
PURPOSE Although abdominal-based flaps remain the first choice for autologous breast reconstruction, alternative donor sites are necessary when the abdomen is unavailable. Abdominal donor site suitability is determined, at times, according to deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP)-protocol computed tomographic angiography (CTA) results. CTA provides information about the pelvis/upper thigh ...
متن کاملComparison of Posteromedial Thigh Profunda Artery Perforator Flap and Anterolateral Thigh Perforator Flap for Head and Neck Reconstruction.
BACKGROUND The anterolateral thigh perforator flap is a common workhorse flap for head and neck reconstruction. The authors present an alternative method using the posteromedial thigh profunda artery perforator flap and compare its characteristics, outcomes, donor-site morbidity, and donor-site cosmesis with those of the anterolateral thigh perforator flap. METHODS Between May of 2013 and Jul...
متن کاملAnterolateral thigh flap for postmastectomy breast reconstruction.
Most postmastectomy defects are reconstructed by use of lower abdominal-wall tissue either as a pedicled or free flap. However, there are some contraindications for using lower abdominal flaps in breast reconstruction, such as inadequate soft-tissue volume, previous abdominoplasty, lower paramedian or multiple abdominal scars, and plans for future pregnancy. In such situations, a gluteal flap h...
متن کاملImplant augmentation after perforator flap breast reconstruction.
We congratulate Figus and colleagues on their series of 14 patients with DIEP flap breast reconstruction who underwent immediate (14 implants) or delayed (four implants) augmentation. We concur that implant augmentation offers an effective option for optimising the results of autologous tissue breast reconstruction but have independently taken a different approach. We would like to share our re...
متن کاملPudendal Thigh Fasciocutaneous Perforator Flap for Vaginal and Perineal Reconstruction: Optimizing Flap Survival
Hypothesis / aims of study Urogenital reconstructive techniques include perineal reconstruction, vaginoplasty, urethral reconstruction, and vesico-vaginal (VVF) and recto-vaginal fistula (RVF) repair. Many of these procedures require the use of local or distant flaps for reconstruction, of which the pudendal thigh fasciocutaneous perforator (PTF) flap is an option. We frequently use this flap f...
