Early Venous Occlusion Detection in a Free Flap Using Real-time Laser Doppler Imaging
Summary: Early detection of venous occlusion in free flaps is particularly difficult to identify, and its duration is known to be directly proportional to flap mortality. Here, we report a case of deep inferior epigastric perforator based breast reconstruction in which the intraoperative use of a pe...
