Simultaneous expander and deep inferior epigastric perforator reconstruction: indications and alloderm sling technique for protecting the anastomosis
Aim: Autologous tissue is considered the “gold standard” for breast reconstruction today. However, little is known about deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap reconstruction in combination with tissue expander (TE)/implant. The authors describe a series of combined DIEP flap/TE reconstruction, including its indications and technique to ensure protection of the pedicle during the expan...
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 the deep inferior epigastric perforator flap: history and an update on current technique.
Perforator flaps allow the transfer of the patient's own skin and fat in a reliable manner with minimal donor site morbidity. For breast reconstruction, the abdomen typically is our primary choice as a donor site. The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap remains our first choice as an abdominal perforator flap and has become a mainstay for the repair of mastectomy defects. It allows ...
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...
متن کاملAbstract 36. Cost Analysis of Two Staged Implants with Alloderm and Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Autologous Reconstruction
RESULTS: The majority of flaps were for lower extremity trauma wounds (74), followed by upper extremity trauma wounds (8), scalp tumor defects (4), and one torso wound. There were 7 flap losses, but of these, 4 were due to noncompliance with postoperative immobilization/elevation orders; excluding these 4 failures for which the NPD was clearly not a factor, the flap success rate was 96.4%. Skin...
