Three-dimensional imaging provides valuable clinical data to aid in unilateral tissue expander-implant breast reconstruction.
The current approach to breast reconstruction remains largely subjective and is based on physical examination and visual-estimates of breast size. Thus, the overall success of breast reconstruction is limited by the inability of plastic surgeons to objectively assess breast volume and shape, which may result in suboptimal outcomes. A potential solution to this obstacle may be three-dimensional ...
متن کاملAuricular reconstruction of congenital microtia: personal experience in 225 cases
Microtia is a congenital disease with various degrees of severity, ranging from the presence of rudimentary and malformed vestigial structures to the total absence of the ear (anotia). The complex anatomy of the external ear and the necessity to provide good projection and symmetry make this reconstruction particularly difficult. The aim of this work is to report our surgical technique of micro...
متن کاملAbstract: Tissue Expander Failure in Breast Reconstruction
INTRODUCTION: Nearly 75% of breast reconstruction procedures performed by ASPS members in 2015 involved tissue expanders. Despite the advantages of expander-based reconstruction, complications are common and can require early removal of the tissue expander. Patient preference and oncologic factors may also prompt unanticipated removal of the tissue expander. We present our experience with tissu...
متن کاملTissue Expander versus Tissue Expander and Latissimus Flap in Morbidly Obese Breast Reconstruction Patients
BACKGROUND Immediate postmastectomy breast reconstruction in morbidly obese patients represents a challenge because neither prosthetic nor abdominal-based options may be suitable. METHODS This study compared a previously published cohort of immediate prosthetic reconstruction of 346 patients (511 breasts) of whom 49 patients (67 breasts) were morbidly obese (defined as a body mass index > 35)...
متن کاملA system for three-dimensional shape measurement and its application in microtia ear reconstruction.
Microtia is one form of ear anomalies representing the defect of a partial or total loss of external ear. This paper describes new method of total auricular reconstruction which combines the use of tissue expander and the non-contact, 3-dimensional (3-D) shape measurement system. The anterolateral and posterior surface of the both sides of the ear of the patients were measured with the 3-D shap...
