Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to examine volumetric changes in vascularized fat flaps after stresses as well as their relationship to capillary density by using a new Zucker-fa/fa rat model. The volumes of vascularized fat flaps were measured weekly; superficial epigastric fat flaps were evaluated on the right side as the control and on the left side as the stress (ischemic or congestive) condition in the same rat. After 12 weeks of measurements, the capillary density of harvested flaps was studied using immunohistochemical examination. Percent changes in the body-weight-corrected flap volume 12 weeks after surgery was 34.7±26.7 in the control flaps and 13.2±10.5 in the stress flaps. The rate of decreases in the volume of the fat flaps correlated with capillary density (p=0.011). An adequate soft tissue volume is crucial for a good outcome after reconstructive surgery. Our results are helpful for determining an operative procedure in reconstructive soft tissue augmentation.
