DIEP flap breast reconstructions: thermographic assistance as a possibility for perforator mapping and improvement of DIEP flap quality

Applied Optics, 2020
In the modern world, one-third or more of breast cancer patients still undergo uni- or bilateral mastectomy. Breast cancer patients, in general, have a good prognosis and long-term survival. Therefore, the treatment must not only focus on survival but also on the quality of life.

The Impact of Scars After DIEP-Flap Breast Reconstruction on Satisfaction and HR-QoL: A Cross-Sectional Study Comparing BREAST-Q Scores. [PDF]

Aesthetic Plast Surg
Background Although deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction is the most widely used technique for autologous breast reconstruction, this technique leads to large scars in visible areas on breast and abdomen.

The Lipo-DIEP Flap Breast Reconstruction: A Valuable Innovation for Maximizing Abdominal Tissue Volume [PDF]

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Background:. The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is universally considered the gold standard technique for breast reconstruction (BR), though it cannot always be proposed to patients with insufficient donor-site volume.

Gender-affirming DIEP Flap Breast Augmentation. [PDF]

Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open
Summary: Implant-based techniques have been the mainstay of gender-affirming breast augmentation (GABA). Here we describe a novel autologous technique for GABA. We provide a single-patient case report of gender-affirming deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap breast augmentation.

Breast Reconstruction Using Combined Unilateral Hemiabdominal DIEP Flap with Lipofilling from the Contralateral Abdomen [PDF]

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Summary:. The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is the gold standard breast reconstruction procedure for patients with adequate lower abdominal tissue and is often elevated, including the unilateral DIEP.
