Four-year outcome of OPCAB no-touch with total arterial Y-graft: making the best treatment a daily practice.

30 Aug 2009 BACKGROUND: A retrospective, single-center 4-year clinical study of the off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting no-touch technique with arterial conduits (Y-graft) was compared with the Syntax trial. METHODS: Four hundred consecutive patients ... Read more...

Comparison of superior gluteal artery musculocutaneous and superior gluteal artery perforator flaps for microvascular breast reconstruction.

30 May 2009 BACKGROUND: At the authors' institution, the superior gluteal artery musculocutaneous flap has been replaced by the superior gluteal artery perforator flap for autologous breast reconstruction. The authors present a head-to-head comparison of the ... Read more...

Midface reconstruction with various flaps based on the angular artery.

30 May 2009 PURPOSE: Although several methods can be used to perform midface reconstruction, difficulties exist in selecting the appropriate method because of anatomic and functional complexities, donor site morbidities, and poor esthetic results. The purpose ... Read more...
