Novel technique for venous augmentation in a free deep inferior epigastric perforator flap.
Venous congestion in a free deep inferior epigastric perforator flap threatens the viability of the flap and can lead to eventual flap loss. We describe a novel technique for flap salvage by anastomosing the ipsilateral superficial inferior epigastric vein to a venae comitantes of the deep inferior epigastric pedicle. When recognized intraoperatively, venous congestion can be relieved immediate...
متن کاملAnterolateral thigh flap salvage following failed deep inferior epigastric artery perforator breast reconstruction.
The deep inferior epigastric artery perforator flap is an option for women desiring autologous tissue breast reconstruction. If this reconstruction fails, other autologous tissue flaps, including the gluteal artery perforator and latissimus dorsi flaps, may be used for salvage. The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap offers adequate tissue volume for breast reconstruction, acceptable fat quality and...
متن کاملExtended deep inferior epigastric artery perforator flap for head and neck reconstruction: a clinical experience with 100 patients.
BACKGROUND The extended deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) artery flap had been described in 1983. For head and neck reconstruction, we have been using a variation of this flap, namely a perforator free flap of the deep inferior epigastric system with a superolateral extension of the skin paddle. METHODS The purpose of this study was to present our 10-year experience in the performanc...
متن کاملCASE REPORT The Use of Both Antegrade and Retrograde Internal Mammary Vessels in a Folded, Stacked Deep Inferior Epigastric Artery Perforator Flap
OBJECTIVE Deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap is an excellent option for breast reconstruction in young and active patients who have a history of chest wall radiation. One drawback, however, is that the entire capacity of abdominal pannus cannot be reliably transferred on a single pedicle. The purpose of this case report is to demonstrate a method of maximizing the volume of ...
متن کاملProfunda Artery Perforator (PAP) Flap for Breast Reconstruction
Perforator flap breast reconstruction has strong appeal for many women undergoing mastec‐ tomies, but the procedure requires adequate donor site tissue. The most common donor site for perforator flap breast reconstruction is the abdomen, such as the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) or superficial inferior epigastric artery (SIEA) flap, as most women have adequate donor site tissue, th...
