An investigation of the application of laser-assisted indocyanine green fluorescent dye angiography in pedicle transverse rectus abdominus myocutaneous breast reconstruction.
BACKGROUND Pedicle transverse rectus abdominus myocutaneous (pTRAM) flaps remain the most common method of autologous tissue breast reconstruction. Using pTRAM flaps, complications often arise postoperatively, secondary to inadequate circulation. Tissues from distant angiosomes are associated with poorer perfusion, but this differs among patients. Many modalities have been used to reduce the ri...
متن کاملThe application of laser-assisted indocyanine green fluorescent dye angiography in microsurgical breast reconstruction.
The benefits of laser-assisted indocyanine green fluorescence angiography have previously been demonstrated in cardiac surgery. The purpose of this study was to determine the value of this technology in microsurgical breast reconstruction. Intraoperative laser-assisted indocyanine green fluorescence angiography was performed on all microsurgical breast reconstruction cases (deep inferior epigas...
متن کاملLaparoscopic Transverse Rectus Abdominus Flap Delay for Autogenous Breast Reconstruction
Laparoscopic ligation of the deep and superficial inferior epigastric vessels was done for ten mastectomized patients who elected to have autogenous reconstruction of their breast. All these patients had at least one indication for the delay which included obesity, smoking, or requirement of a large volume of tissue for their reconstruction. The procedure did not add any morbidity or mortality ...
متن کاملUse of laser-assisted indocyanine green angiography for early division of the forehead flap pedicle.
IMPORTANCE The paramedian forehead flap is used to reconstruct medium to large nasal defects. The staged nature, with its vascular pedicle bridging the medial eyebrow to the nose, results in significant facial deformity. Earlier division lessens this morbidity. OBJECTIVES To quantify flap neovascularization 2 weeks after the initial flap transfer and to describe an algorithm for earlier divis...
متن کاملRecovery after transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap breast reconstruction surgery.
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To assess pain and activity limitations and to determine realistic goals for recovery after a transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap breast reconstruction in a standard rehabilitation and recovery program. Assessing patient satisfaction with educational information is a secondary objective. DESIGN Before and after comparison. SETTING A National Cancer Instit...
