In this series, we were able to achieve long-term palliation and even cure in some patients by resecting full-thickness chest wall in local primary or recurrence of breast cancer without increasing morbidity. The same process was used successfully in association with adjuvant treatment in other tumors like skin sarcoma. We have followed a surgical algorithm according to the tumor localization and etiology.
The facial aesthetic unit remodeling monobloc translesional resection technique on a preestablished pattern has been reproducible, offered increased predictability in functional and cosmetic results, and allowed us to operate on extensive hemifacial lesions with a lower transfusion risk.
ICRs after DIEP flap reconstruction are more frequent than contralateral recurrences suggesting the need for imaging follow-up of the reconstructed breast.
The release and plication of the posterior rectus sheath associated with the use of submuscular resorbable mesh is a long-lasting and reliable procedure in multiparous women with severe myoaponeurotic laxity.
Our preliminary results using lipofilling to treat young patients with breast hypoplasia with lipofilling are very encouraging. The authors believe it is an alternative of choice for the correction of the young woman's breast deformities if the avoidance of scarring is preferred.
This study introduce the interest of fibrin sealant to significantly decrease the postoperative drainage volume and duration in the thoracic area after immediate breast reconstruction by DIEP flap.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
