The laparoscopically harvested omental flap for deep sternal wound infection.
OBJECTIVE To report our experience with the laparoscopically harvested omental flap in the treatment of deep sternal wound infection, and to present a modification and introduce two supportive techniques in the perioperative management. METHODS Between June 2005 and September 2007, six patients with grade IV (El Oakley-Wright classification) deep sternal wound infection following a median ste...
متن کاملFailed omental flap vesicovaginal fistula repair subsequently repaired laparoscopically without an omental flap.
BACKGROUND Conventional wisdom suggests that vascular interposition flaps are helpful in the treatment of all patients with vesicovaginal fistulas. Complicated fistulas are often treated with interposition omental flaps; however, failed omental flap repairs have not been described without the use of another interposition flap. CASE A 52-year-old woman with a history of cystotomy repair at the...
متن کاملThe laparoscopically harvested omental flap and transverse plate fixation for sternal reconstruction in complicated sternal wound infection after cardiac surgery
Methods Between 2010 and 2011, 6 patients with type IV deep sternal wound infection underwent a sternal reconstruction with a laparoscopically harvested omental flap and transverse plate fixation. The median age of the cohort (1 female and 5 males), was 72.5 years (range: 4978 years). In 5 patients, a bilateral internal thoracic artery had been used. Considerable preoperative risk factors were ...
متن کاملVesicovaginal fistula failing multiple surgical attempts salvaged laparoscopically without an interposition omental flap.
Failed vesicovaginal fistula repairs are often considered complicated and are thus relegated to an abdominal approach using an interposition omental flap. We report our successful laparoscopic approach without use of an omental flap in a patient with multiple recurrences of a vesicovaginal fistula.
متن کاملPericardial flap interposition for the definitive management of recurrent tracheoesophageal fistula.
From 1974 to 1988, six children with fistula recurrence following primary tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) repair have been managed at our hospital. Reclosure of the fistula with pleural flap interposition was used as the initial corrective procedure in five patients, with an 80% incidence of second TEF recurrences. Due to these discouraging results, we have abandoned this technique and instead ...
