This study combined lymphatic procedures with perforator flaps to reconstruct large defects after soft tissue sarcoma resection, effectively preventing common complications like lymphedema.
Area of Science:
- Surgical Oncology
- Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
- Lymphedema Management
Background:
- Soft tissue sarcomas often necessitate extensive surgical resection, leading to significant tissue damage.
- Reconstruction of large defects, especially in lymphatic-rich areas, poses challenges and risks complications like lymphocele or lymphedema.
