Journal ArticleDOI
Refining the course of the thoracolumbar nerves: A new understanding of the innervation of the anterior abdominal wall
Warren M. Rozen,T. M.N. Tran,Mark W. Ashton,Michael J. Barrington,Jason J. Ivanusic,G. I. Taylor +5 more
TL;DR: All thoracolumbar spinal nerves that innervate the anterior abdominal wall were found to travel as multiple mixed segmental nerves, which branch and communicate widely within the transversus abdominis plane (TAP).
Journal ArticleDOI
Preoperative imaging for DIEA perforator flaps: a comparative study of computed tomographic angiography and Doppler ultrasound.
Warren M. Rozen,Timothy J Phillips,Mark W. Ashton,Damien L Stella,Robert N Gibson,G. Ian Taylor +5 more
TL;DR: Computed tomographic angiography is a valuable imaging modality for the preoperative assessment of the donor-site vascular supply for TRAM and DIEA perforator flaps and was substantially quicker and removed the interobserver error associated with Doppler ultrasonography.
Journal ArticleDOI
The anatomical (angiosome) and clinical territories of cutaneous perforating arteries: development of the concept and designing safe flaps.
TL;DR: The data provided by Saint-Cyr et al. and Rozen et al., coupled with the authors' own original work on the vascular territories of the body and their subsequent studies, reinforce the angiosome concept and provide the basis for the design of safe flaps for patient benefit.
Journal ArticleDOI
The arterial anatomy of the Achilles tendon: Anatomical study and clinical implications
TL;DR: A detailed anatomical study of both the intrinsic and extrinsic arterial supply of the Achilles tendon is provided, providing the detail sought from studies calling for improved planning of surgical procedures where damage to the vascularity of the tendon is likely.
Journal ArticleDOI
Does the preoperative imaging of perforators with CT angiography improve operative outcomes in breast reconstruction
Warren M. Rozen,Namrata S. Anavekar,Mark W. Ashton,Damien L Stella,Damien Grinsell,Richard J. Bloom,G. Ian Taylor +6 more
TL;DR: The use of CTA for preoperative imaging in breast reconstruction is associated with improved operative outcomes, with a statistically significant reduction in donor site morbidity.
