Safety of Drainless Donor Closure in DIEP Flap-Based Breast Reconstruction: A Prospective Analysis Using Ultrasound

Journal of reconstructive microsurgery, 2022
Background  Although drainless donor closure with progressive tension suture (PTS) technique has been attempted to further reduce donor morbidity in deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap-based breast reconstruction, its clinical safety has not ...

Predicting results of DIEP flap reconstruction: The flap viability index

Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery, 2012
Worldwide experience with the DIEP flap has established its pre-eminent role in breast reconstruction after mastectomy. CT angiographic vascular imaging has enhanced the planning of reconstruction, allowing mapping of perforator patterns to increase the predictability of surgery.

DIEP Flap in Head and Neck Reconstructions

2019
Even if the deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) free flap has become popular among plastic surgeons mostly for breast reconstruction, its use to restore head and neck defects has been widely documented in the literature, particularly when additional tissue bulk is required.
