The Influence of Pfannenstiel Incision Scarring on Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator
BACKGROUND Abdominal wall free flaps are used most frequently in autologous breast reconstruction, and these flaps require intact and robust deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) vessels. Pfannenstiel incisions are often present during preoperative visits for breast reconstruction and could potentially signal compromised blood supply to the lower abdominal wall. In this study, we compared ...
متن کاملThe Impact of Perforator Number on Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Breast Reconstruction
BACKGROUND Perforator flaps minimize abdominal site morbidity during autologous breast reconstruction. The purpose of this study was to assess whether the number of perforators harvested influences the overall deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap survival and flap-related complications. METHODS A retrospective review was performed of all DIEP flaps performed at the Hospital of the ...
متن کاملPartial breast reconstruction with mini superficial inferior epigastric artery and mini deep inferior epigastric perforator flaps.
In this study, partial breast reconstruction was undertaken after breast conservation therapy using mini abdominal free flaps on both an immediate and delayed basis.Patient demographics, oncologic status, reconstructive data, and complications were collected from medical records.Twelve patients (age range 39-60) were included in this study with a mean follow-up time of 5 years. Ten mini superfi...
متن کاملBreast reconstruction with deep inferior epigastric perforator flaps
INTRODUCTION Approximately 45,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK each year. The success of screening and the introduction of adjuvant therapies have meant that prognosis is improving and an increasing number of patients are seeking reconstruction following mastectomy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap reconstructions...
