Optimizing Donor Site Morbidity in DIEP Flap Reconstruction: Advancements in Minimizing Anterior Fascial Defects: A Systematic Review.
Numerous minimally invasive deep inferior epigastric perforator flap (MI-DIEP) techniques have been described in the literature to reduce donor site morbidities. This systematic review aimed to summarize existing MI-DIEP techniques and post…
-
Comparing Transabdominal and Totally Extraperitoneal Approaches for Minimally Invasive DIEP Flap Harvest: A Systematic Review.
[INTRODUCTION] Minimally invasive techniques for DIEP flap harvest, including transabdominal (TAPP) and totally extraperitoneal (TEP) approaches, have been reported to be beneficial in reducing morbidity; however, direct comparative synthes…

Comparison of outcomes following postmastectomy radiation therapy in patients with autologous free flap reconstruction depending on the radiation therapy protocol: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
[BACKGROUND] Changes in the standard postmastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT) dosage schedule have led to the development of the hypofractionated radian therapy technique (HRT) that allows patients to receive fewer radian therapy sessions wi…
