Abstract:
Objective To verify the ability of distal ends of internal mammary artery and vein used as recipient vessels on breast and chest wall reconstruction. Methods Four bilateral (left 2 and right 2) scent pig buttock island flaps pedicled circle deep iliac artery and vein were used by comparing the different hemodynamic parameters (pressure; flux volume; perfusion unions) between the original pedicl artery (deep iliac artery), proximal and distal ends of internal mammary artery. The free flaps were transplantated by anastomosed end-end to the distal-ends of internal mammary artery and vein after the proximal ends were ligated. Results The pressure of distal end of internal mammary artery was 61%-65% of the pressure with original pedicl artery (deep iliac artery), the immediate volume of anastomasis stoma was a little lower than that of original pedicl artery. The flap, 15 cm?30 cm?2 cm in size, completely survived more than 14 days after operation. Conclusion The slightly decreased distal arterial pressure does not compromise flap survival. Bilateral scent pig buttock island flap pedicled circle deep iliac artery and vein is an ideal animal flap model. This hymodynamic model can be widely used .
