Microsurgical Reconstruction

Microsurgery is a surgical technique that utilizes specialized instruments, such as a microscope or magnifying lens, to perform intricate procedures on small structures or vessels in the body. These procedures often involve the repair or reconstruction of blood vessels, nerves, or other small structures that may have been damaged or severed. Some examples of microsurgery include replanting a severed limb, repairing a damaged nerve, or reconstruction of breast tissue following a mastectomy.

To be successful in microsurgery, surgeons must have an in-depth understanding of the anatomy and physiology of the region they are working on, as well as the ability to work with precision and control. They also need to have excellent hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills to be able to manipulate the small instruments and suture materials used in these procedures. Additionally, they must be able to work in a seated position for long periods of time and have the ability to concentrate for extended periods. Microsurgeons also need to be comfortable with the use of magnification and microscopy, as well as specialized equipment.

Breast reconstruction with abdominal tissue flap

Breast reconstruction with abdominal tissue flap is a microsurgical procedure that aims to recreate a breast shape after a mastectomy (removal of all breast tissue). The surgeon will use tissue from the patient’s lower abdomen to create a new breast shape. The benefits of this surgery include the restoration of a breast shape and an improved sense of self-esteem for patients.

Alternative options to breast reconstruction with abdominal tissue include padded bras or bra inserts, reconstruction using only an implant, and reconstruction using the latissimus dorsi muscle. However, these options may not provide the same level of naturalness and symmetry as the abdominal tissue flap method.

It’s important to note that breast reconstruction is not a medically necessary procedure and patients should weigh the benefits and risks before deciding to undergo surgery. Preparation for the operation includes maintaining a healthy weight, stopping smoking, and regular exercise. It is also important to follow pre-operative instructions such as avoiding shaving or waxing the area where the cut will be made, staying warm, and keeping blood sugar levels under control. 

Complications of the surgery can include bleeding, infection, allergic reactions, and kidney injury. It is important to discuss the risks and potential complications with a qualified plastic surgeon before undergoing the procedure.
