Unilateral buttock reconstruction using contralateral inferior gluteal artery perforator flap with the aid of multi-detector CT
چکیده انگلیسی

SummaryThe applicability of inferior gluteal artery perforator (IGAP) flaps in breast reconstruction following breast cancer has been well described. However, the use of IGAP flaps in buttock augmentation has not been presented. We present the case of a female patient with buttock asymmetry and a deficiency of volume, who underwent buttock reconstruction based on a contralateral IGAP flap. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) was used to study donor and recipient areas, and allowed easy interpretation as it provided anatomical images and three-dimensional anatomy reconstructions. Based on a knowledge of individual anatomical perforating vessel distributions, safe perforator flaps can be designed. Moreover, we are convinced that buttock reconstruction using autologous tissue can be performed in a safe and reliable fashion using perforator flaps. Donor site morbidity was minimal and the muscle at the donor site was preserved. The contralateral buttock proved an excellent donor site for aesthetic unilateral buttock reconstruction and provided ample tissue in the described case.
