CONT

Dans certains cas, le lambeau et son pédicule (artère et veine) sont entièrement détachés de la zone donneuse (abdomen, fesse), immédiatement rebranchés à une artère et une veine situées au niveau de la zone receveuse, ce qui nécessite des compétences en microchirurgie. Cette technique est appelée lambeau libre.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Cirugía
CONT

La reconstrucción microquirúrgica con colgajo libre permite llevar tejido desde el lugar que nosotros elijamos hasta la zona mamaria. Este tejido (colgajo) lleva en su composición tejido propio de la persona (autólogo) y está formado por grasa y piel nutridos por arterias y venas. A esta grasa le damos la forma de una mama normal, [...] esta nueva mama tiene la ventaja de que al ser tejido vivo, es capaz de repararse y mantenerse en condiciones óptimas, sufre los mismos cambios que la persona y se parece más a la mama original y a la mama [opuesta].
