Effects of Tissue Component Volumes on Vascular Resistance in Free Flaps
Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 2016Background A successful free flap transfer is achieved, in part, by having a thorough understanding of vascular anatomy and blood flow dynamics. We previously reported that vascular resistance differs by type of free flap. To test the hypothesis that the difference reflects the proportion of tissue components within free flaps, we calculated blood flow

Role of Microvascular Free Flaps Combined with Tissue Engineering
2019The application of tissue engineering (TE) or regenerative medicine methods for reconstruction of maxillofacial continuity defects remains in its infancy. A number of authors have, however, reported successful use of TE for mandible reconstruction in humans and subhuman primates.

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

Introduction. Soft tissue defects exposing the Achilles tendon are challenging. Local perforator flaps represent a valuable option gaining increasing popularity. Despite preoperative planning an adequate perforator cannot always be found intraoperatively.

Tissue Expansion of Free and Pedicled Flaps after Transfer: Possibilities and Indications
Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 2007Tissue expansion in combination with flap transfer has been widely reported as preexpansion of flaps, but only once as expansion of a free flap after transfer. Three free flaps and one pedicled flap were expanded after transfer. Indication, timing of expander implantation and explantation, technical aspects, and complications are reviewed.

Free Flap Donor Site Refinement Using Tissue Expansion
Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1988Posttransfer tissue expansion has been used to negate concern for the aesthetic donor site deformity following 15 free tissue transfers involving donor sites of the scalp, trunk, and extremities. There appears to be no contraindication to placing these implants immediately, as was done in 87% of cases, although it is recommended that expansion be ...

Microvascular Free Flaps in Soft-Tissue Augmentation of the Head and Neck
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1986The disadvantage of traditional methods for reconstruction of soft-tissue deficits providing symmetric restoration of head and neck contour are the need for multiple stages in the case of pedicle flaps and the unpredictable atrophy and resorption in the case of free nonvascularized dermis-fat grafts. In addition, unsightly donor defects may be an added

Review of the free scapular flap: a versatile flap for most osteocutaneous tissue defects
European Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2001Although there is little doubt that the scapular flap is a versatile flap that is suitable for most tissue defects, it has failed to gain its proper place in the reconstructive armamentarium. This may be due to the perceived donor site morbidity. However, many published articles have shown that the donor site morbidity is limited and acceptable.
