Free-Style Free Flaps

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2004
Free-tissue transfer has become the accepted standard for reconstruction of complex defects. With the growth of this field, anatomic studies and clinical work have added many flaps to the armamentarium of the microvascular surgeon. Further advancements and experience with techniques of perforator flap surgery have allowed for the harvest of flaps in a ...

Free-style free flap

Injury, 2008
Advancements in microsurgical techniques as applied to perforator flaps have made harvesting flaps in a free-style manner a practical reality. A hand-held Doppler identifies sizable perforators on which flaps can be based. In free-style free flap harvesting, any region of the body can be chosen as a donor site as long as there is an audible pulsatile ...

Emergency free flaps

Microsurgery, 2003
AbstractThe use of top‐quality tissue in covering soft‐tissue loss, and precocity in reconstructing injuries and restoring function, are major prerequisites for obtaining a good surgical result. Earlier methods of reconstruction, based on a delay, for various periods of time, in reconstruction, have gradually become obsolete.

Free Flaps in the Elderly

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1992
Microsurgical transfer of tissue has become a primary tool of the reconstructive surgeon. The elderly, as a growing segment of our society, are requiring free-tissue transfers in proportion to their numbers. To investigate the potential morbidity of free-tissue transfers in the elderly, we studied consecutive populations of 31 patients above the age of

THE FREE MUSCULOCUTANEOUS FLAP

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1976
We report the transfer of a free musculocutaneous compound flap, including the gracilis muscle, in one stage by microvascular surgery. The advantages of this free flap are discussed.

Free Flap Phalloplasty

Journal of Urology, 1982
AbstractBecause of dissatisfaction with the length of time and number of operative procedures necessary for our previously reported phalloplasty procedure we have attempted a free flap approach in 3 patients. This procedure was successful in 2 patients, while in 1 a staged construction was necessary after failure of the free flap.

Intrathoracic Free Flaps

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1993
The utility of pedicled muscle flaps transposed into the thoracic cavity to reconstruct complex intrathoracic defects has been well documented. However, in some patients, local chest-wall muscles have already been either sacrificed or transected by previous thoracotomies and are not available for reconstruction.

The scapular free flap

British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1982
A purely cutaneous free flap overlying the infraspinous region of the scapula has been used successfully in three cases. It is of intermediate thickness, predominantly hairless and is based on the cutaneous branch of the circumflex scapular artery. Te dissection of the flap is easy, quick and safe, resulting in a minimal pedicle length of 3 cm but this

Free flap failures

Microsurgery, 1995
AbstractA retrospective analysis of 75 consecutive free flap patients, operated on during 1989–1990, was performed to find out more about factors associated with free flap failure or immediate vascular complications. The overall failure rate was 9.3% (7/75) and the immediate vascular complication rate 22.7% (17/75).

The Free Tram Flap

Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 1998
The transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap has become the well-accepted method for breast reconstruction using autogenous tissue. The free TRAM flap allows one to perform this procedure with minimum complications because of the improved blood supply.
