Porcine Model for Gluteal Artery Perforator Flap: Anatomy and Technique
1 BACKGROUND Although flap anatomy is well studied on cadavers and microsurgical techniques are well practiced on rats, still there are few training models for learning the techniques of perforator flap harvesting. The cadaver has no bloodstream, so accuracy of dissection cannot be evaluated and flap viability cannot be verified. Training on humans carries a high risk of flap damage. A living m...
متن کاملThe superior gluteal artery perforator flap for reconstruction of sacral sores
This report describes our experiences using the superior gluteal artery perforator (SGAP) flaps for reconstruction of 2 sacral sore cases. A 47-year-old female patient and a 38-year-old man with sacral sores were treated in our unit. The size of the defects were approximately 5×6 cm2 and 8×9 cm2, the defects were repaired by SGAP flaps. The size of designed was SGAP flaps varied from 7×20 ...
متن کاملApplication and refinement of the superior gluteal artery perforator free flap for bilateral simultaneous breast reconstruction.
BACKGROUND The gluteal artery perforator free flap represents the state of the art in autogenous breast reconstruction for the patient with insufficient abdominal donor tissue. Preservation of the gluteal musculature limits morbidity and allows for rapid patient recovery. The need for intraoperative repositioning has historically limited gluteal artery perforator flap breast reconstruction to o...
متن کاملSuperior Gluteal Artery Perforator Flap for Closure of Large Sacral Defects
During the period from September 2001 and December 2003, eleven patients with sacral defects were treated with unilateral superior gluteal artery perforator flap (SGAP flap). The use of a handy Doppler probe was of paramount importance in flap design and operative detection of perforators. The total operative time averaged 3 hours with no major blood loss necessitated blood transfusion. There w...
متن کاملAnatomical study of the superior gluteal artery perforator (S-GAP) for free flap harvesting.
OBJECTIVE To present the appropriate superior gluteal branch for free flap harvesting. MATERIAL AND METHOD The characteristic and external diameter of the pedicles and the main perforators, and length of the pedicles were studied in both sides of 30 formalin-preserved cadavers. RESULTS The patterns of the pedicle could be classified into four types, the vertical, the horizontal, the descend...
