Breast reconstruction with perforator flaps.
BACKGROUND Perforator flaps represent the latest in the evolution of soft-tissue flaps. They allow the transfer of the patient's own skin and fat in a reliable manner, with minimal donor-site morbidity. The powerful perforator flap concept allows transfer of tissue from numerous, well-described donor sites to almost any distant site with suitable recipient vessels. Large-volume flaps can be sup...
متن کاملReconstruction of Pretibial Defect Using Pedicled Perforator Flaps
BACKGROUND Coverage of defects of the pretibial area remains a challenge for surgeons. The difficulty comes from the limited mobility and availability of the overlying skin and soft tissue. We applied variable pedicled perforator flaps to overcome the disadvantages of local flaps and free flaps on the pretibial area. METHODS Eight patients who had the defects in the anterior tibial area were ...
متن کاملBipedicle-conjoined perforator flaps in breast reconstruction.
BACKGROUND For some patients seeking autologous breast reconstruction, there may be insufficient abdominal skin and soft tissue to reconstruct an adequately sized breast. Perfusion from a single-pedicle deep inferior epigastric perforator artery flap has a high degree of variability across the midline, and this further limits perfusion. We have found that bipedicle-conjoined abdominal perforato...

متن کاملPedicled Thoracodorsal Artery Perforator Flap in Breast Reconstruction: Clinical Experience
BACKGROUND The thoracodorsal artery perforator (TDAP) flap has been described for reconstruction of the head and neck, trunk and extremities. Yet, its use as a pedicled flap in breast reconstruction has not gained wide popularity and has not been widely documented, especially not for complete breast reconstruction or in combination with expanders or permanent implants. The authors present their...
