Free Flap of Gliding Tissue

Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 1986
A flap of loose connective tissue based on the thoracodorsal vein and artery and lying between the latissimus dorsi and serratus lateralis can be raised and transferred as a local or free flap. This flap has been used to reconstruct the gliding mechanism in block adhesions of the flexor tendons at wrist level.

Soft-Tissue Microvascular Free Flaps

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1994
Microvascular free flaps have revolutionized the reconstruction of soft-tissue defects in the head and neck region in the last decade. In this article, the anatomy, surgical techniques, advantages, and disadvantages of a variety of flaps are discussed.

Free perivascular tissue flap transfer

Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive & Aesthetic Surgery, 2015
Local flaps and composite grafting are the procedures of choice for reconstructing relatively small soft tissue defects. However, despite their limited conveyable volume, local flaps sometimes require a wide dissection area and long new incisions. Composite grafts also have serious limitations and require a well-vascularized recipient bed.

Free Flaps for Soft Tissue Reconstruction of Digits

Hand Clinics, 2020
Soft tissue reconstruction of the digit is challenging for hand surgeons because it must satisfy both functional and aesthetic requirements. A wide variety of treatment options exist. A free flap can be an alternative solution in some clinical situations. This article has 2 purposes.

Free‐Flap Monitoring with Tissue‐Oxygen Measurement

Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 1997
Flap monitoring by oxygen measurement with a microcatheter pO2 probe was carried out in 17 free flaps. The probe represents a new development among monitoring methods, allowing the measurement of oxygen pressure in all types of flaps including buried free flaps and vascularized bone grafts. Fourteen flaps survived with no problem.

The free flap

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1975
A one-stage distant flap repair of a compound leg injury is discussed introducing a “free flap” transfer with vascular anastomosis as a method of primary closure. It is suggested as an alternative method to a difficult cross-leg flap or a tedious tube pedicle repair.

Microvascular Free Flaps for Soft-Tissue Defects

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 1991
Included in this discussion of microvascular free flaps for soft-tissue defects is an examination of the oral and pharyngeal lining, the epithelial-line conduit between the oropharynx and esophagus, skull-base defects, total glossectomy defect, facial augmentation, external skin coverage, and muscle transfer.

Reconstruction of Difficult Wounds With Tissue-Expanded Free Flaps

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2004
Tissue expansion of free flaps before transfer have been used to increase the size of the transferred tissue and to allow primary closure of the donor site. This is especially important in burns when there is a lack of healthy tissue, and in children when there is a relative lack of tissue.

Tissue and Plasma Levels of Endothelin in Free Flaps

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2003
The goal of the study was to assess whether endothelin-1 levels are increased in tissue and plasma in free flaps. To assess this hypothesis, blood samples were taken from the general circulation before and after reperfusion and from the flap after reperfusion in 20 patients undergoing breast reconstruction with free transverse rectus abdominis ...

Topical Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor Improves Free-Flap Survival in a Model Simulating Free-Flap Errors

Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 1995
Free flap failure is frequently due to tension, twisting, kinking, or compression of the vascular pedicle after the anastomosis is completed. A rabbit model simulating these errors was used to evaluate the capacity of topically-applied tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) to prevent microvascular thrombosis. The rabbit ear was isolated on the central
