DIEP and pedicled TRAM flaps: a comparison of outcomes

TL;DR: Data support the DIEP flap as the preferred option over the pedicled TRAM flap for autologous breast reconstruction in postmastectomy patients, while flap failure and abdominal wall bulging rates are similar in the two patient groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microvascular complications of DIEP flaps.

TL;DR: DIEP venous congestion, despite patent primary venous anastomosis, occurs in 5 percent of these flaps and can be managed successfully by a second venous bypass between the superficial epigastric vein and any chest wall vein.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pelvic reconstruction using vertical rectus abdominis musculocutaneous flaps.

TL;DR: The results support the use of the transpelvic vertical rectus flap in difficult perineal wound reconstruction, and ideally suited to bring nonirradiated tissue into defects associated with radical surgical extirpation procedures and irradiated fields.
Journal ArticleDOI

The deep inferior epigastric perforator flap for breast reconstruction in overweight and obese patients.

TL;DR: The authors retrospectively reviewed the computerized records of 71 women undergoing 80 deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap reconstructions after mastectomy over a 1-year period and found that the DIEP flap likely represents the preferred autologous breast reconstruction technique for overweight and obese patients.
