The Impact of Transfer-Related Ischemia on Free Flap Metabolism and Electrolyte Homeostasis—A New In Vivo Experimental Approach in Pigs

The Impact of Transfer-Related Ischemia on Free Flap Metabolism and Electrolyte Homeostasis—A New In Vivo Experimental Approach in Pigs

Free flap tissue transfer represents the gold standard for extensive defect reconstruction, although malperfusion due to thrombosis remains the leading risk factor for flap failure. Recent studies indicate an increased immune response and platelet activation in connection with pathologic coagulation...
