Significados de free flaps en inglés

CHI is a new diagnostic method for postoperative monitoring of free flaps.

Three patients who had skin grafts required secondary reconstruction using free flaps.

Conventional methods including skin grafts and free flaps always lead to unsatisfactory outcomes.

Reconstructive methods were 18 skin grafts, seven local flaps, and three free flaps.

Reconstructions with local flaps give better aesthetical and functional results than free flaps and skin grafts.

All secondary free flaps were performed successfully.

The various neuromuscular free flaps used for facial reanimation are described and their merits and deficiencies are discussed.

Results One hundred and thirty-nine patients were identified, reconstructed with 150 consecutive perforator free flaps to the breast.

In fact, it is possible to repair wide tissue damages of the skin, muscles or bones using free flaps.

The system of flaps based on the subscapular artery and vein provides the widest array of composite free flaps.

The overall success rate of free flaps is 95.3% (22 free flap failures).

The authors have developed a technique for postoperative monitoring of transferred free flaps, making the removal of gauze dressings unnecessary.

Observation and results: Four hundred and sixty five free flaps have been done at our centre in the last 5 years.

Methods: This was a retrospective study of 93 patients undergoing reconstructions with free flaps from 2007 to 2015.

Results: A total of 14 flaps were performed on the nine patients (five free flaps and nine pedicled muscle or myocutaneous flaps).

Conclusions: Although free flaps were performed with far greater frequency than PMMFs at our institution, the PMMF demonstrated continued utility as a secondary reconstructive option.
