Importance Premastectomy radiotherapy (PreMRT) is a new treatment sequence to avoid the adverse effects of on final breast reconstruction while achieving benefits immediate (IMBR). Objective To evaluate outcomes among patients who received PreMRT and regional nodal irradiation (RNI) followed by mastectomy IMBR. Design, Setting, Participants This was phase 2 single-center randomized clinical trial conducted between August 3, 2018, 2, 2022, evaluating feasibility safety RNI (including internal...
Background: Robotic surgery is emerging as a viable tool in reconstructive surgery. Harvesting of the deep inferior epigastric perforator flap typically performed through an anterior approach, which involves long fascial incision. A robotic approach allows pedicle to be harvested from posterior surface. This reduces length incision and should decrease abdominal morbidity associated with large dissections. Methods: case series study 21 patients who underwent or during 12-month period for...
Nipple sparing mastectomy (NSM) has become an accepted approach in selected cases of breast cancer and prophylactic mastectomy. Various surgical techniques have been described nipple ischemia a common complication. Potential risk factors for after NSM are examined. To examine predisposing NSM. Prospective evaluation 71 consecutive 45 patients from 2009 to 2011 was performed. There were 40 mastectomies (56.3%), 31 (43.7%) mastectomies. In cancer, the ducts excised undersurface nipple....
A recent survey of plastic surgeons showed that the majority prescribed prophylactic antibiotics after hospital discharge for breast reconstruction. There is no clinical evidence this practice reduces surgical site infection (SSI) immediate tissue expander Furthermore, multiple studies have suggested current antibiotic choices may not be appropriately covering causative organisms SSI.An institutional reconstruction database from January 2005 to December 2011 was queried identify patients...
Although diabetes mellitus (DM) is a known risk factor for surgical complications in general, there little published evidence to establish such an effect among patients undergoing breast reconstruction (BR). The purpose of this study was assess the impact DM on postmastectomy BR.Patients who underwent BR at our institution from November 2002 2012 were identified. Clinical and demographic data with type 1 or 2 reviewed. Complications occurring within 60 days surgery compared between diabetic...
Summary: Advances in surgical instruments, magnification technology, perforator dissection techniques, and vascular imaging over the past decades have facilitated exponential growth field of microsurgery. With wide application potential including but not limited to limb salvage, breast reconstruction, lymphedema treatment, sex affirmation surgery, microsurgery represents a critical skill set that powerfully augments reconstructive armamentarium plastic surgeons. Accordingly, microsurgical...
Background: Discovering alternatives to workhorse flaps that have more consistent anatomy and lower donor-site morbidity has become a focus of reconstructive surgery research. This study provides simplified approach profunda artery perforator flap design harvest based on reliable anatomical landmarks. Methods: A retrospective review was conducted 70 patients who underwent 83 reconstructions for postoncologic defects from 2016 2018. The authors recorded analyzed the sizes clinical...
