Split Rejection in Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation
INTRODUCTION Graft monitoring following vascularized composite allotransplantation (VCA) relies primarily on serial skin biopsy. However, given that VCA comprised multiple tissue types, skin biopsy may not accurately reflect rejection in other transplanted tissue. METHODS A review of the literature on episodes of both acute and chronic rejection following VCA was completed. Special attention ...
متن کاملAbstract: Prevention of Ischemic-Reperfusion Injury and Chronic Rejection in a Porcine Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation Model
INTRODUCTION: Lipedema is a chronic disorder characterized by localized adiposity, typically isolated to the lower extremities (LEs). The interplay between the deposition of fatty tissue associated with lipedema and impairments of lymphatic flow remains unclear. The purpose of this study is to evaluate lymphoscintigraphic findings in patients with a clinical diagnosis of lipedema in order to be...
متن کاملFacial Vascularized Composite Tissue Allotransplantation
Reconstruction of severe composite defects of the face is challenging for reconstructive surgeons. Despite several reconstructive techniques, the functional and aesthetic results of these patients are not acceptable. As a major organ, face, has an utmost importance in daily life. The specific characteristics of face require not a reconstruction, but a replace with same tissue. With the evolutio...
متن کاملReview of the Early Diagnoses and Assessment of Rejection in Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation
The emerging field of vascular composite allotransplantation (VCA) has become a clinical reality. Building upon cutting edge understandings of transplant surgery and immunology, complex grafts such as hands and faces can now be transplanted with success. Many of the challenges that have historically been limiting factors in transplantation, such as rejection and the morbidity of immunosuppressi...
متن کاملCurrent status of vascularized composite tissue allotransplantation
Vascularized composite tissue allotransplantation (VCA) offers treatment options of complex functional deficiencies that cannot be repaired with conventional reconstructive methods. VCAs consist of blocks of functional units comprising different tissue types such as skin, bone, muscle, nerves, blood vessels, tendons, ligaments and others, and are thus substantially different from the compositio...
