Histological modification in TRAM flap in rats treated with pentoxifylline.
PURPOSE To investigate the blood vessels' concentration in TRAM flap's rat model, in the presence of pentoxifylline. METHODS 32 male, Wistar-EPM rats were divided into two groups. Control group (C): 0.5 ml of saline, intraperitoneally, once a day, for seven days before flap elevation; PTX group (P): pentoxifylline (20mg/kg/day), intraperitoneally, for seven days before flap elevation. After t...
متن کاملCholecystectomy after breast reconstruction with a pedicled autologous tram flap. Types of surgical access
The number of breast reconstruction procedures has been increasing in recent years. One of the suggested treatment methods is breast reconstruction with a pedicled skin and muscle TRAM flap (transverse rectus abdominis muscle - TRAM). Surgical incisions performed during a cholecystectomy procedure may be located in the areas significant for flap survival. The aim of this paper is to present ana...
متن کاملTRAM flap for immediate post mastectomy reconstruction: comparison between pedicled and free transfer.
UNLABELLED Breast reconstruction after mastectomy is primarily carried out to improve the patients' quality of life. The most commonly used autologous tissue for reconstruction is the transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous flap (TRAM). The TRAM flap could be transferred either as pedicled or a free flap with microvascular anastomosis. The following work was carried out to evaluate the two...
متن کاملFree versus the pedicled TRAM flap: a cost comparison and outcome analysis.
Proponents for the free TRAM flap have advocated enhanced tissue vascularity, easier inset, and limited abdominal dissection. Equal aesthetic results without increased morbidity and without the risks of microvascular surgery have been suggested by surgeons using the pedicled technique. The free TRAM flap has been criticized for its considerably higher costs. The purpose of this study was to pro...
متن کاملImmediate simultaneous bilateral breast reconstruction with deep inferior epigastric (DIEP) free flap and transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) pedicled flap.
Breast reconstructive surgery has evolved tremendously since its inception. Following tumour clearance surgery, physical restoration with breast reconstruction is an important aspect of physical and emotional rehabilitation. Various methods have been described to suit patients demand for the best aesthetic outcome. Surgeon's preference, experience and practicality of differing procedures must b...
