Ultrasound-Imaging of Lateral Thoracic Arteries to Detect Breast Cancer

Lancet, The, 1999
Whereas healthy women have similar pulsatality indices (PI) of both lateral thoracic arteries (LTA), a significantly elevated difference of both PI (ipsilateral versus contralateral) indicates malignancy. We used colour-coded doppler ultrasound imaging technique to image the LTA of both sides in 5 6 female patients with suspect mammograms, all of whom ...

Locoregional Use of Lateral Thoracic Artery Perforator Flap as a Propeller Flap

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2015
Although thoracodorsal system is a fundamental source of various flaps, lateral thoracic region has not been a popular flap donor area. There is limited data on the use of lateral intercostal artery perforator flap and lateral thoracic artery perforator flap.

Lateral Thoracic Artery Perforator (LTAP) Flap in Partial Breast Reconstruction

Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery, 2015
Partial breast reconstruction using pedicled perforator flaps from the thoracodorsal (TDAP) and lateral intercostal arteries (LICAP) is well described. The article introduces the lateral thoracic artery perforator (LTAP) flap as an additional valuable option from the lateral chest wall and reports clinical experience and outcomes.The anatomy of the ...

Lymph Fasciocutaneous Lateral Thoracic Artery Flap: Anatomical Study and Clinical Use

Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 2014
 The lateral thoracic flap was first studied in the mid-1970s but its use has been limited because of pedicle anatomical variations. However, after the development of lymph node transfer surgery, the axilla/upper lateral thorax presented as a promising donor area.

Anomalous Origin of the Lateral Thoracic Artery: Case Report

ARACÊ
The arterial supply of the lateral wall of the chest is provided by branches of the axillary artery (AA), which is subdivided into three parts by the pectoralis minor muscle. Regarding the anatomical variation in the branches originating from the artery, axillary, when if treats from the artery thoracic side emerging as a branch of the subscapular ...

A Novel Axial Pattern Skin Flap Based on the Lateral Thoracic Artery in the Dog

Veterinary and Comparative Orthopaedics and Traumatology, 2004
SummaryThe cutaneous distribution and anatomical landmarks of the lateral thoracic artery in the dog are reported. Perfusion studies in cadavers showed a variable distribution, but a skin flap capable of rotation through 90° could be created.

Lateral Thoracic Artery Axial Pattern Flap in Cats

Veterinary Surgery, 2008
Objective—To describe the location of the lateral thoracic artery (LTA), determine dimensions of an axial pattern flap based on this artery, and report use of this flap in 2 cats.Study Design—Ex vivo study and case reports.Animals—Cat cadavers (n=8); cats (n=2) with thoracic limb skin defects.Methods—Dissection of the LTA was carried out on 1 side of ...

Lateral costal branch of the internal thoracic artery

Clinical Anatomy, 1993
AbstractThe lateral costal branch (LCB) of the internal thoracic artery (ITA) was studied because its presence sometimes may reduce the blood flow of the ITA when it is used for myocardial revascularization (Singh and Sosa, 1981). The ITA of 90 cadavers of adults of both sexes, whose ages ranged from 20 to 84 years, was studied after neoprene latex ...

Lateral origin of the right internal thoracic artery: Report of a case

Surgery Today, 1997
We report herein the unusual case of a patient in whom postoperative angiography following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) revealed a lateral origin of the right internal thoracic artery (ITA) and a normal origin of the left ITA, both of which were demonstrated to be patent and did not follow a tortuous course.

Lateral thoracic artery embolization in cystic fibrosis.

Acta radiologica (Stockholm, Sweden : 1987), 2002
We report the embolization of an aberrant origin of haemoptysis - from the internal branch of the lateral thoracic artery - in a patient affected by cystic fibrosis. The technical implications for embolotheraphy in case of an aberrant origin of a haemorrhage are emphasized. Many different systemic arteries may contribute to the blood supply of the lung
