چکیده
RESULTS: LVA resulted in 1259 anastomoses using 949 lymphatic vessels at 794 surgical sites. The number of anastomoses per limb ranged from 1 to 16 (median 5). Multivariate analyses revealed that factors associated with larger lymphatic vessel (0.5 mm or larger) were age [65 or older; odds ratio (OR) 1.403], radiation history (OR 1.622), incision in thigh/leg (compared with groin; OR 1.607/1.628), and ICG lymphography of Stardust/Diffuse pattern (compared with Linear pattern; OR 0.529/0.047), and that factors associated with severe lymphosclerosis were body mass index (25 or larger; OR 1.775), radiation history (OR 0.465), incision in thigh/foot (OR 2.378/4.444), and ICG lymphography of Stardust/Diffuse pattern (OR 82.048/1406.174).

Abstract: Is the Deep Inferior Epigastric Lymph Node Flap an Appropriate Alternative to the Right Gastroepiploic Lymph Node Flap for Treatment of Upper Extremity Lymphedema?
M oday, Sptem er 6, 2016 oncologic axillary and groin lymph node dissection. Vascularized lymph node transfer based on the omental flap has been proposed as a potential solution to lymphedema. However, literature characterizing the gastroepiploicbased omental flap and corresponding lymph nodes does not currently exist. The purpose of this study is to describe lymph node anatomy along the gastro...
متن کاملGreater Omental Lymph Node Flap for Upper Limb Lymphedema with Lymph Nodes–depleted Patient
BACKGROUND The greater omentum is supplied by the right, middle, and left omental arteries, which arise from the right and left gastroepiploic arteries. All or part of the greater omentum can be harvested based on this blood supply for free tissue transfer. It has stimulated new interest in its use as the donor site in the treatment of lymphedema. For patients who have failed other management o...
