Autologous breast augmentation by pedicled perforator flaps

Annals of Plastic Surgery

Abstract

A technique is described for autologous breast augmentation based on perforator flaps of the lateral chest wall. Raising these flaps as perforator flaps implies minimal donor site morbidity; however, the price to pay is a scar underneath the armpit extending from the lateral end of the inframammary fold onto the back. This scar can be relatively well hidden underneath the arm and in the brassiere. Indications depend on the aversion of the patient against prostheses and the extent of available tissue versus the desired augmentation. As typical indications, we would consider the occasional developmental asymmetry, autologous augmentation after contralateral breast reconstruction, or contour surgery in the bariatric patient.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
