Evolution and Adaptations of Robotic DIEP Flap Surgery: A Systematic Review

The Journal of craniofacial surgery (Print)
Background: The integration of robotic technology into surgical procedures has gained considerable attention for its promise to enhance a variety of clinical outcomes. Robotic deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap harvest has emerged as a novel

DIEP flap breast reconstruction

2021
Abstract This chapter presents an overview of the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap in breast reconstruction. The vascular basis of the DIEP flap and surgical technique are described in detail. Planning, preoperative investigations, and how to select the ideal perforator are discussed.

Diep flap sentinel skin paddle positioning algorithm

Microsurgery, 2014
Although clinical examination alone or in combination with other techniques is the only ubiquitous method for flap monitoring, it becomes problematic with buried free‐tissue transfer. We present a DIEP flap sentinel skin paddle (SSP) positioning algorithm and its reliability is also investigated using a standardized monitoring protocol.

Clinical Relevance of Sensory Nerve Coaptation in DIEP Flap Breast Reconstruction Evaluated Using the BREAST-Q

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2022
Background: Sensory nerve coaptation in autologous breast reconstruction positively affects sensory recovery in the reconstructed breast. However, patient-reported outcomes are lacking and no conclusions on the clinical relevance of nerve coaptation ...

Prospective Longitudinal Patient-Reported Satisfaction and Health-Related Quality of Life following DIEP Flap Breast Reconstruction: Effects of Reconstruction Timing

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2022
Background: Without reconstruction, mastectomy alone can produce significant detrimental effects on health-related quality of life. The magnitude of quality-of-life benefits following breast reconstruction may be unique based on timing of reconstruction.

Handheld wireless laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) during DIEP flap breast reconstruction: a pilot study

BiOS
Perfusion of the flap is essential in Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction surgery for flap survival, yet perioperative assessment of flap perfusion to detect perfusion-related problems is challenging.

Inset techniques for the DIEP flap - what improves aesthetic outcomes?

Acta chirurgiae plasticae
INTRODUCTION The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap is widely considered as the gold standard in breast reconstruction. The inset technique of the DIEP flap is crucial in determining the overall aesthetic outcome; however, to date no ...

Closed-Incision Negative-Pressure Therapy Reduces Donor-Site Surgical Wound Dehiscence in DIEP Flap Breast Reconstructions: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2022
Background: In breast reconstruction operations, surgical wound dehiscence is a serious complication that generates a significant burden on patients and health care systems. There are indications that postoperative treatment with closed-incision negative-
