- Outcome Analysis of Immediate and Delayed Conservative Breast Surgery Reconstruction With Mastopexy and Reduction Mammaplasty Techniques(2011) MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonca; ALDRIGHI, Claudia Maria; MONTAG, Eduardo; ARRUDA, Eduardo; BRASIL, Jose Augusto; FILASSI, Jose Roberto; ALDRIGHI, Jose Mendes; GEMPERLI, Rolf; FERREIRA, Marcus CastroBackground: Bilateral mammaplasty or mastopexy is frequently used for oncoplastic objectives. However, little information has been available regarding outcome following immediate and delayed reconstruction. Method: Patients were divided into Group I (immediate reconstruction) and Group II (delayed reconstruction). Retrospective review was performed to compare complications, length of hospital stay, revision surgeries, and satisfaction. The associations between the complications with potential risk factors (timing, age, body mass index, smoking, and comorbid medical conditions) were analyzed. Results: There were a total of 144 patients with a mean follow-up of 47 months. Of the 106 patients in Group I, complications occurred in 24 (22.6%), skin necrosis was observed in 7.5%, fat necrosis in 5.6%, and 6.6% patients developed local recurrence. Mean period of hospitalization was 1.89 days. Of the 38 patients of the Group II, complications occurred in 12 (31.5%), skin necrosis was observed in 7 (18.4%), fat necrosis in 4 (10.5%), and 5.2% patients developed local recurrence. Mean period of hospitalization was 1.35 days. Increased length of hospital stay greater than 1 day (P < 0.001) and the number of revision surgeries (P = 0.043) were associated with the timing of the reconstruction. In univariate analysis, no difference between groups was found with respect to complication incidence (P = 0.275); however, after adjusting for other risk factors, the probability of complications tend to be higher for Group II (OR = 2.65; 95% confidence interval - 1.01-7.00; P = 0.049). Conclusions: On the basis of the results of our study, the probability of complications tends to be higher for delayed reconstructions, and it is demonstrated that obesity and smoking are risk factors for complications. Ultimately, these data may facilitate the provision of individualized risk information for shared medical decision-making.
- Qualitative analysis of the viability of autogenous fat grafts grafted in different environments of interstitial pressure. Preliminary results and description of a new experimental model in mini-pigs(2017) ARRUDA, Eduardo Gustavo Pires de; MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonca; MATSUMOTO, Walter; UEDA, Thiago; COUDRY, Renata de Almeida; GEMPERLI, RolfPurpose: To evaluate the feasibility of an experimental model of autologous fat graft (AFG) in different interstitial pressure (IP) environments. Methods: Three mini-pigs(Minipig-BR) with age of 8 months (weight: 25-30 kg) were used. AFG were collected from the bucal fat pad, and grafted in the intramuscular pocket (biceps femoralis muscle). IP model was based on a fusiform ressection followed by primary closure ""under tension"". A blood pressure catheter located in the intramuscular region connected to a pressure module was applied to quantify IP. Results: The mean operative time was 236 min (210 -272 min). All the AFG and muscular segments were removed successfully. Average interstitial pressure CP and H were 3 and 10.6 mmHg respectively. The AFG were biopsied for histopathological analysis 30 days after graft. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and immunohistochemical analyzes (TNF-alpha, CD31 and Perilipine with monoclonal antibodies) were employed. Conclusion: The data show that minipigs model could be used as a recipient site for autologous fat graft techniques and allow the development of studies to explore the AFG intake and pathophysiology response.
- Optimizing Outcomes in Free Flap Breast Reconstruction in the Community Hospital Setting: A Stepwise Approach to DIEP/SIEA Flap Procedures with Banking a Hemiabdominal Flap(2017) OKADA, Alberto; PEREIRA, Diego Daniel; MONTAG, Eduardo; PORTOCARRERO, Marcelo; FELICIO, Carlos; ARRUDA, Eduardo Gustavo; FONSECA, Alexandre; GEMPERLI, Rolf; MUNHOZ, Alexandre MendoncaBackground Free flap breast reconstruction is a conventional procedure in many countries; however, microvascular compromise remains a devastating outcome. Given the morbidity of total necrosis, optimizing free flap salvage stands out as an important area for research, especially among surgeons to overcome the learning curve period and in resource constrained scenario such as community hospitals. To ensure free deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP)/superficial inferior epigastric artery (SIEA) flap breast reconstruction, the authors present a technique involving raising a hemiabdominal flap as a free flap, and banking the remaining flap to be utilized if needed in a subsequent procedure. Methods A retrospective review was performed on all free flap breast reconstructions. In this period, 84 patients (mean age: 50.18 years) were included. Results In this study, 65.5% patients underwent immediate reconstruction, and 51.2% received DIEP reconstruction; 9.52% patients were returned to the operating room, and salvage reconstruction using the banked flap was performed in all patients. No differences were observed regarding early complications and age, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologists status, diabetes, smoking history, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and type of flap used ( p >0.05). Hypertension was significantly associated with early complications ( p <0.05). Donor-site complications were associated with RT ( p <0.05). Conclusion The banked flap is a reliable method for ensuring DIEP/SIEA flap survival and should be considered in higher risk reconstructions and community hospitals. We believe that the present technique can be a good addition to the arsenal of plastic surgeons dealing with free flap breast reconstructions in selected patients.
bookPart Reconstrução mamária(2019) OKADA, Alberto Yoshikazu; FONSECA, Alexandre Siqueira Franco; MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonça; ARRUDA, Eduardo Gustavo Pires de; MONTAG, Eduardo; GEMPERLI, Rolf- Avaliação do índice de infecção de implantes mamários utilizados na reconstrução de mama do Instituto do Câncer do Estado de São Paulo(2014) ALMEIDA, PATRÍCIA NORONHA DE; ARRUDA, EDUARDO GUSTAVO PIRES DE; OKADA, ALBERTO; MONTAG, EDUARDO; FERREIRA, MARCUS CASTRO; BUSNARDO, FÁBIO FREITAS; FONSECA, ALEXANDRE SIQUEIRAABSTRACT Introduction: Placement of breast implants is the most commonly used form of breast reconstruction. Despite its advantages, infection of the implant, either in the tissue expander or mammary prosthesis, can be a significant problem, including the need to remove it. The objective of this work is to evaluate the infection rate of breast implants used for breast reconstruction in patients submitted to surgery at the Cancer Institute of the State of São Paulo (ICESP), as well as its correlation with clinical, oncological, and surgical factors. Patients and methods: This is a retrospective study on 120 patients submitted to breast reconstruction with breast implants at the ICESP from February 2009 to March 2010. Results: The infection rate (24.3%) was statistically related to immediate reconstruction (88.9%), diabetes mellitus (25%), body mass index >30 (52.8%), systemic arterial hypertension (52.8%), and skin injury due to mastectomy (27.8%). Of the infected implants, 44% were removed, most of which were expanders placed during immediate reconstruction. Conclusions: Breast reconstruction with implants is the safest and most effective form of treatment. However, consideration should be given to patients who are prone to the development of infection, in order to optimize its prevention and attempt to perform its treatment at an early stage.
conferenceObject DIFFICULTY OF TREATMENT OF VERRUCOUS CARCINOMA OF THE VULVA: POSSIBILITIES OF RECURRENCE(2013) DIAS, A. Ribeiro; ARRUDA, E. G. Pires de; MIGLINO, G.; SADALLA, J.

Paula- Serratus anterior muscle flap as a salvage procedure in exposed implant-based breast reconstruction(2019) MONTAG, Eduardo; OKADA, Alberto; ARRUDA, Eduardo G. P.; MUNHOZ, Alexandre M.; BUSNARDO, Fabio F.; GEMPERLI, RolfBACKGROUND: Implant-based breast reconstruction (IBR) is the most common approach to reconstruct mastectomy deffects. Infection following breast reconstruction can be devastating and lead to loss of the reconstruction due to the need of implant removal. The serratus anterior muscle flap is widely used during breast reconstruction to provide coverage of the implant/expander. METHODS: We present the application of the serratus anterior muscle flap to treat implant exposure after breast reconstruction. CASES PRESENTATION: Two patients who experienced implant exposure after breast reconstruction were successfully treated with partial capsulectomy, pocket irrigation and implant coverage with a serratus anterior muscle flap. RESULTS: No post operative complications have been observed while implant retention was achieved in both cases. CONCLUSIONS: The serratus anterior muscle flap is an option to treat implant exposure following breast reconstruction in selected cases. This flap could be used to prevent implant exposure in critical cases. (C) 2019 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of IJS Publishing Group Ltd.
- Immediate Locally Advanced Breast Cancer and Chest Wall Reconstruction: Surgical Planning and Reconstruction Strategies with Extended V-Y Latissimus Dorsi Myocutaneous Flap(2011) MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonca; MONTAG, Eduardo; ARRUDA, Eduardo; OKADA, Alberto; BRASIL, Jose Augusto; GEMPERLI, Rolf; FILASSI, Jose Roberto; FERREIRA, Marcus CastroBackground: Surgical resection in locally advanced breast cancer produces large defects that may not be suitable for primary closure. Immediate reconstruction is controversial and presents a complicated scenario for breast surgeons and plastic surgeons. Methods: In this study, a different design was planned for the latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap with primary closure in V-Y for the correction of major lesions in the anterior chest wall. Twenty-five patients underwent immediate locally advanced breast cancer reconstruction with a V-Y latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap. This flap was raised from adjacent tissue located on the lateral and posterior thoracic region and presented a triangular shape whose base was the lateral aspect of the mastectomy wound. The technique was indicated in patients with large thoracic wounds. Results: Mean follow-up time was 16 months. Closure was obtained in the donor and recipient sites without the use of skin grafts or other more major procedures. Complications occurred in nine patients (36 percent), including dorsal wound dehiscence in five patients and seroma in three. All cases except one were treated by a conservative approach with a good result. No total flap loss was reported. All patients achieved a satisfactory thoracic reconstruction and adequate wound care. Conclusions: The V-Y latissimus dorsi musculocutaneous flap is a reliable technique for immediate locally advanced breast cancer reconstruction. The technique is advantageous because the V-Y design allows primary closure of the chest wound and donor defect. Success depends on patient selection, coordinated planning with the breast cancer surgeon, and careful intraoperative management. (Plast. Reconstr. Surg. 127: 2186, 2011.)
- Influência do posicionamento do retalho linfonodal vascularizado na resposta ao tratamento cirúrgico do linfedema secundário ao câncer de mama.(2019) MONTAG, Eduardo; OKADA, Alberto Yoshikazu; ARRUDA, Eduardo Gustavo Pires; FONSECA, Alexandre Siqueira; BROMLEY, Miluska; MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonça; BUSNARDO, Fábio Freitas; GEMPERLI, RolfABSTRACT Objective: to evaluate the initial therapeutic experience of transplantation of vascularized lymph nodes in patients with lymphedema of the upper limbs secondary to the treatment of breast cancer, and to verify if the positioning of the transplant influences the surgical result. Methods: we conducted a prospective, comparative test of two therapeutic modalities, with 24 patients with lymphedema of the upper limb after breast cancer treatment, classified as grades 2 and 3, according to the International Lymphedema Society. The two types of procedures performed were: 1) total breast reconstruction with - deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap associated with lymph node flap, in patients with no previous breast reconstruction or loss of previous reconstruction (axillary positioning); 2) isolated inguinal lymph node flap performed in patients with completed breast reconstruction or without the desire to perform the breast reconstruction (wrist positioning). Results: the reduction percentage of the affected limb volume was 20.1% (p=0.0370). The number of infectious episodes (cellulites) also decreased significantly, from 41% in the preoperative period to 12.5% in the postoperative one (p=0.004). There were no differences between the proximal and distal groups. Conclusion: the transplantation of lymph nodes positively affected the postoperative evolution of patients with lymphedema secondary to breast cancer. We observed no differences in relation to flap positioning.
- Immediate conservative breast surgery reconstruction with perforator flaps: New challenges in the era of partial mastectomy reconstruction?(2011) MUNHOZ, Alexandre Mendonca; MONTAG, Eduardo; ARRUDA, Eduardo; BRASIL, Jose Augusto; ALDRIGHI, Jose Mendes; GEMPERLI, Rolf; FILASSI, Jose Roberto; FERREIRA, Marcus CastroIntroduction: Although the use of local flaps in conservative breast surgery (CBS) reconstruction is a reliable technique, little information has been available regarding outcome following the use of perforator flaps. The purpose of this study is to analyze the feasibility, surgical planning and outcome following CBS reconstruction with intercostal artery perforator (ICAP) flap. Patients/methods: Thirteen patients underwent CBS reconstructions with an ICAP flap. These flaps were raised from adjacent tissue located on the lateral and thoracic region and based on perforators originating from the costal and muscular segment of the intercostal vessels. The technique was indicated in patients with small/moderate volume breasts. Results: Mean time of follow-up was 32 months. Flap complications were evaluated and information on patient satisfaction were collected. 61.5 percent had tumors located in the lower-outer quadrants and 69.2 percent had tumors measuring 2 cm or less (T1). Complications occurred in 3 patients (23%), including wound dehiscence in 2 patients and fat necrosis in one. All cases were treated by conservative approach with a good result. No flap loss or wound infection were reported. 90 percent were either satisfied or very satisfied with their result. Conclusion: The ICAP flap is a reliable technique for immediate CBS reconstruction. The technique is advantageous because it does not require the use of muscle transfer, with minimum donor site morbidity. Success depends on patient selection, coordinated planning with the oncological surgeon and careful intra-operative management.
